Dress Code-
Yes, we have one. No, it’s not that deep.
The Red Lantern is a cozy little fantasy tavern where we serve strong drinks, make bad decisions look classy, and expect you to dress like you left the house on purpose.
If you're wearing what you slept in, what you mowed the lawn in, or something you picked up off the floor and sniffed—go home, regroup, and try again.
🚫 Not Allowed:
Pajamas or obvious sleepwear (just because it's soft doesn't mean it's public-ready)
House shoes, slippers, or fuzzy Crocs (yes, even the sparkly ones)
Tank tops or undershirts worn solo (fellas—no exceptions)
Clothing with offensive language or graphics (you’re not that edgy)
Anything sagging, dragging, or falling off—pull up yer britches
Outfits that scream “I didn’t plan to end up here, but now I’m mad about it”
✅ Encouraged:
Clean clothes
Real pants
A little effort
Good decisions (or at least good intentions)
Costumes encouraged—if you’re brave enough.
(Not required. We’re not that kind of place. But we’re not stopping you either.)
🛡️ Tavern Standards
A few rules to keep The Red Lantern fun, safe, and blessedly free of nonsense.
🧠1. Don’t Act a Fool
No fighting. No yelling. No “just playin’.”
This is a tavern, not your cousin’s back porch. Keep it together or kindly get gone.
🍞 2. No Outside Food or Drinks
We have a bar. We don’t want your gas station snacks or half-wrapped drive-thru bags.
If it didn’t come from behind our counter, it doesn’t come in.
✋ 3. Don’t Touch the Staff
Not to flirt. Not to wave them down. Not “just joking.”
You touch—you're out. Swiftly. And possibly dramatically.
🎭 4. This is a Theme Bar, Not a Free-for-All
Yes, there are fantasy vibes. No, you can’t cosplay your way into acting unhinged.
Shoes on. Pants up. No excuses.
🪑 5. Respect the Space
Don’t stand on the furniture. Don’t carve anything into the tables.
And for the love of the tavern gods, do not knock over Lord Reginald. He remembers.
⚖️ 6. Management Has Final Say
If we ask you to leave, don’t make it weird.
This is a private business. If your vibe is off, your outfit is off, or your attitude is off—you’re out.
