The folks at Endless Hospitality Group (The Wayland, Goodnight Sonny, Madeline's Martini, etc.) are behind this straightforward concept with food from Chef/partner Luigi Petrocelli.
Per the EVG inbox:
The Lions is a back-to-basics American bar and grill. We serve classic cocktails, frosty mugs of beer, and all-night food centered around a house-ground burger, a fun and thoughtful bar menu, and weekly specials.
More details to follow.
The Lions takes over the space from Endless Hospitality Group's Bar Lula, which had a two-plus year run here and closed after service on New Year's Eve.

Sad. Lula had great food and cocktails
I am trying to wrap my head around a "fun and thoughtful" bar menu. I guess I'll be surprised -- or not -- when I swing by for a "frosty" (do they mean frothy or are they really frosted?) mug.
beer mugs can indeed be frosty. I can't believe I had to say that.

Back in the 80s and 90s, there was a Dugout Tavern on lower 3rd avenue that promoted its "frozen mugs." Beer can indeed be both frosty and frothy.
(Our friend Jeremiah Moss remembered it in his blog: https://vanishingnewyork.blogspot.com/2012/09/dugout.html)
Stones shot the indoors portion of their Waiting On A Friend video there, in what seems an eternity ago.
Next you'll have to tell them that a Martini can indeed be made with gin.
Haha seriously
