The Vic, Lostock Hall, Preston, Lancashire
The Victoria at Lostock Hall, near Preston, reopened at the beginning of August after a five-week closure for a £250,000 refurbishment by Heineken-owned Star Pubs & Bars and north-west pub operator Ian Molyneux. The pub is Molyneux’s fifth leased site and his fourth with Star Pubs & Bars.
The Victoria has been given a new name as well as a new look and is now called the Vic after its local nickname. The investment has added a live entertainment area, a new games room and a pizza oven, making the Vic the first pub in Lostock Hall to serve food for many years.
