Accessibility Statement
Last reviewed: April 2026
Our Commitment
Lyons Group is committed to providing a corporate website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of ability or technology. We actively work to improve the accessibility and usability of this website and, in doing so, adhere to many of the available standards and guidelines.
Scope of This Statement
This accessibility statement applies to the Lyons Group corporate website at lyonsgroup.com. All venues featured on this site are independently owned and operated and maintain their own websites and accessibility programs. If you encounter accessibility barriers on a venue’s own website (for example, rochambeauboston.com or summershackrestaurant.com), please refer to that venue’s own accessibility statement and feedback channels.
Conformance Status
This website aims to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at Level AA, with Level AAA contrast targeted across all text. WCAG defines requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities, and is the standard referenced by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act.
Our most recent automated audits (April 2026) returned zero violations against the axe-core and SortSite WCAG 2.2 rule sets across all pages.
Compatibility with Browsers and Assistive Technology
This website is designed to be compatible with current versions of major browsers and screen readers, including:
- Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, and Microsoft Edge (latest versions)
- NVDA and JAWS on Windows
- VoiceOver on macOS and iOS
- TalkBack on Android
The website is also designed to be navigable using a keyboard alone, without requiring a mouse or touch input.
Technical Specifications
Accessibility of this website relies on the following technologies:
- HTML5
- WAI-ARIA
- CSS

Measures Taken
- Text contrast meets or exceeds WCAG 2.2 AAA (7:1) across body copy and AA (4.5:1) across all interface elements
- All images include descriptive alternative text
- Interactive elements meet the 24×24 pixel minimum target size
- Forms include visible labels and clear error messaging
- Page structure uses semantic HTML landmarks and a logical heading hierarchy

Known Limitations
