Openings: The Lions on 1st Avenue and St. Mark's Place

The Lions Bar & Grill debuted earlier this month at 132 First Ave. on the SE corner of St. Mark's Place. (First reported here.)

The team at Endless Hospitality Group (The Wayland, Goodnight Sonny, etc.) is behind this establishment, which offers "martinis, burgers and fries, cold beer and great music." The menu is here.

Kitchen hours: Tuesday-Saturday, 5 p.m. to 1 a.m.; to midnight Sunday and Monday.

The Lions takes over the space from Endless Hospitality Group's Bar Lula, which had a two-plus year run here, closing after service on New Year's Eve.

The Lions Bar & Grill is slated to open this month at 132 First Ave. on the SE corner of St. Mark's Place.

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.
