Lion's Den

This is a great small pub! I was staying at the Red Lion Inn and went down here to hear some Irish music and have a few drinks with my fiancée. We loved that there were trivial pursuit decks just lying around for people to quiz each other with and the beer selection was very nice. The music was great and not too loud, which made it easy for us to talk to each other as well as enjoy the band. We also had some of their bread pudding and that was very, very yummy indeed. This is a really nice find in Stockbridge and I recommend it to anyone who's staying at the Inn or in town for a visit.

Came on a Saturday night w the posse around 9pm.  It was a light snow outside and parking wasn't too bad, a few spaces out on the street in front.  There was a band playing that evening, so mucho loud and MUCHO packed.  There was a single table right when you walk in around the corner by the bar so we took it.

Waitress was quick to get our drink order and of course the guys wanted to try some food--new england clam chowder and the charcuterie board.  Beers and ciders came fast and food was a prompt 10 mins or so after.  Many beers on tap but smaller batch brews.  The cider was awesome and I love me some spiked juicey juice.  Food was pretty decent, nothing superb tho-basic hot soup and array of meats and crunchy breads.

We said we would stay about 45 mins and it was kinda boring with the old-school band so we wanted to get going, except the waitress was no where to be found.  We waited nearly half an hour to try and find her and that was damn annoying enough.  I get that there is a band and maybe they were short staffed but it was towards the end of the night and most people weren't eating at that point.  Had to take a star b/c i have the worst patience and 20-30 mins of waiting, NO Bueno.

Loved the old decor though and the crowd was just as worn.  Not a bad spot tho, and would probably come earlier next time so we would't have to listen to the honky-tonk.

Pub in the basement of the Red lion inn. Live music with delicious food. Small menu and good service.
