Red Lion Tavern

Red Lion Tavern is a beloved Los Angeles institution serving authentic German cuisine and beer since 1959. Settled in Silver Lake on Glendale Boulevard, the tavern has built a loyal following for its hearty sausages, cold German beers, and warm, convivial atmosphere. The space offers both indoor and outdoor seating, so it works equally well for a relaxed afternoon of day drinking or a lively group celebration. Guests consistently praise the festive energy, especially during Oktoberfest season. With room for large groups and a vibe that suits everything from date nights to casual hangouts, it is a true neighborhood classic.
