The Red Lion Tavern

The Red Lion Tavern is the restaurant inside Cohasset’s historic Red Lion Inn, serving elevated New England cuisine in a building that dates to 1704. The kitchen gives classic regional dishes fresh, modern flavors, with homemade pasta, prime steaks, fresh salads and locally sourced fish. Large king pine floors, wooden beams, rustic wood tables and five working fireplaces give the dining rooms a cozy, old-fashioned feel, especially on chilly days.

Diners can choose among several settings. The main dining room seats 50 with ten more seats at the bar, while the Pub offers a more informal atmosphere with 25 table seats and ten bar seats, a good spot to watch a game or meet friends. In warmer months, a patio off the inn’s front deck offers outdoor dining beside a waterfall. The tavern sits in the heart of Cohasset Village.
