The Lion is a vibrant cocktail bar and coffee shop located in the heart of Bexley, Ohio at 2511 E Main Street. It opened in September 2024 as the community’s first dedicated cocktail lounges, created by local hospitality group Bexley Hospitality.

The Lion takes its name from the Bexley High School mascot, symbolizing local pride and community spirit. Inside, the bar offers a stylish yet cozy atmosphere with plush seating, exposed brick, and tasteful décor — a welcoming place for friends to gather.

The menu features craft cocktails, classic drinks, wine, beer, and rotating offerings designed by experienced mixologists. Beyond evening drinks, The Lion also operates a coffee shop serving artisan coffee, tea, and pastries during daytime hours.

With regular events like trivia nights, live music, and special celebrations, The Lion has quickly become a go-to destination for both casual meetups and lively nights out in Bexley.
