Hey just wanted to clarify - there has been a cover charge every time I have gone to Red Lion, but only about $5. That said, the bands are great and the drinks are cheap. The crowd is a good mix, so all always feel welcome. One warning - you may have to save your conversations for in between songs, because some of the bands can get a little loud! All in all though, a great place.
Pros: music, atmosphere, crowd
Cons: cover charge
