‘Pub of the year’ gong for Digby’s The Red Lion

The Red Lion at Digby was chosen as the ‘Pub of the Year’ at the annual food, drink and hospitality awards ceremony, held last week.

A spokesman for the 400- year-old pub said they were ‘delighted’ to have been chosen, adding: “A big thank you to all of our suppliers, our dedicated and hard working team and all of our customers for your continued support.”

This latest award means the pub now has a hat-trick of gongs - having scooped Lincolnshire Life’s ‘Pub of the Year’ award in 2017 and 2018.
