“It's a nice place, but just be warned that it's a Beer & Whiskey bar. They have very limited mixers, so very limited cocktail options. If you're a Beer and/or Whiskey fan, you'll enjoy it. They had one option each for Red & White wine in case there's a wine drinker in your group.“

“Stopped in last night with my boyfriend and best friend 5/3/25 for a drink and lucked out with a lovely duo performance! My boyfriend used to come to the Red Lion Inn as a kid and he hadn't been in years. We had to stop in while we were in town and it was a very special moment. The only downside would be we only ordered the nuts and they took 30 minutes to come out. Seemed like our waiter was preoccupied with another table and we couldn't help but take notice. Our waiter, very tall slender looking man, was being disrespectful to a younger couple who was staying at the Inn for a weekend getaway. He was hitting on the girlfriend and openly crossing a boundary. The boyfriend even expressed to the waiter how uncomfortable he was that this is his girlfriend. He was asking the couple how they met and if they were even attracted to each other. It was incredibly uncomfortable and creepy to witness and I was appalled at the servers remarks to the couple. As someone who has been a waitress and a bartender, talking down to customers and hitting on their partner is so unbelievably unprofessional and I would be fired immediately. I am really hoping a consequence can come from this. Really upsetting way to leave such a gorgeous establishment with so many memories. Out of respect for this incredible establishment I gave it a 4 stars but it would've been a 5 otherwise.“

“Stopped here for lunch on the way back to Amsterdam NY, from Boston. We sat at the bar as we usually do everywhere. The service was excellent, the food came out fast and it was delicious. Will go back for sure.“

“Great staff! Good times! Love the place !“
