With a passion for culinary excellence and a longstanding commitment to the San Antonio area, Allen Tharp built on his years in the food industry supporting local military bases and launched The Lion and Rose British Restaurant and Pub chain of eating establishments here in the San Antonio area.

Recently, the San Antonio Business Journal recognized Mr. Tharp and his contributions to San Antonio fine dining by featuring him in the July, 2009 issue of NSide Magazine.

“San Antonio is known for mariachis, ostrich skin cowboy boots and delicious fish and chips. Yes, the Alamo City boasts more than the River Walk and Tex- Mex. In fact, San Antonio is the birthplace of one of the most distinguished brands of British Restaurant & Pubs in the United States — the Lion & Rose.

The fine dining, craft beer, sports loving enthusiast can thank Allen Tharp for finding his way back to Texas and into the hospitality industry.”
