The Red Lion is a living, breathing Rock-n-Roll juke box.

From the music you grew up with to the song you just heard in the cab.

On any given night we are the history – the blood & sweat of live music in New York City.

This is the place where bands get their start, making their bones, paying the rent and barely paying their tab. Just like the Rolling Stones did with their first three albums: Interpreting the songs they loved the best. Our bands give it loads. In our cover acts and tribute bands we celebrate our personal history, paying homage to the greatest songs of each & every generation. Simply put:

We play your favorite song.
