It’s a campus bar with a lot of college kids. Fun to visit once in a while

The inside is a health hazard, but the outside portion is pretty chill.

Most reviews in 2025 mention the smell of vomit and stale beer. Profound revelation: It smelled like that back in 1968 when I tended bar there. Back then REO Speedwagon was the House Band. Get over it! It's a smelly college town bar and will be that way as long as the building is standing...and maybe after it's gone if they don't remove ten feet of earth under it and take it to a toxic waste dump.

would’ve given a 1 star but i know that google hides 1 star reviews. i waited in line for over an hour and then they took my real ID and told me to call 911 if i wanted it back. i called 911 and they gave it back to me but told me i had to wait in line again

This might be my favorite bar on campus. It was always packed which I liked and they played good music. The drinks are really strong which you may like, but sometimes I found it bad. Sometimes they are so strong it is hard to drink. It is even cooler now that they added the lights all over. It feels like going to the club. This is always my go to spot on a Friday night.

Red Lion more like RED FLAG. An all-around disgusting establishment. Literal vomit on the floors and in the sinks. Door & security are rude and openly drink while working. A very trashy crowd overall.

Awful music. Staff is oblivious and undereducted. Walls and booths are falling apart. Just another EBT club, but it's poor and broke
There is absolutely no way this place is passing its health code. It literally smells like barf and urine. The ground is so sticky everywhere you go.

College trap bar, the best one on campus

Over serving 18 year olds repeatedly is not a sustainable business. College town or not, once they get hurt it’s going to be over.

Absolutely terrible. I paid 20 dollars for cover and then got denied entry when I tried to get back in after grabbing ciggaretes for my friend. Security was awful, even after my friends came out to vouche for me. Claimed I was "swaying too much" to let back in. If you're looking for a good time, don't go to this bar, they will harass you. Bouncer looked like he had never been touched lovingly by any woman in his life, is probabaly a disappointment to his parents, and is hopefully depressed and hates his life every waking minute. Weird looking beard too. Floor is sticky.
