Absente Promotion This Saturday!


Join the Green Movement this Saturday night at the Golden Lion! Enjoy shots of Absente® absinthe poured right at your table for $9 and keep the custom glass.

What is Absente®?

During the heady days of late 19th century Paris, Absinthe was the trademark drink of artists like Baudelaire, Degas, Manet, Picasso, Van Gogh, Toulouse-Lautrec and Oscar Wilde. Today, Absente evokes the glamour and mystical allure of The Green Fairy. ABSENTE, the first registered brand of Absinthe available in the US market since 1912, is hand crafted in the south of France using only the highest quality artisanal methods and ingredients. ABSENTE is now made with the legendary botanical wormwood, also know as artemisia absinthium. Visit www.greenmvmt.com

Now THAT was a party!

The votes are in. This was the BEST Independence Day ever at the Golden Lion and in Flagler Beach (based on a very informal poll of less than a dozen people, but we're experts)!

The city did a great job, the battle of bands was fantastic, and the fireworks were awesome! The County Commission reversal of their ban on fireworks from the pier and the long weekend created a perfect storm of fun all up and down our beach!

Big thanks to Beach 92.7, Pango Rhum, Blue Sky Yakrobatics, DJ Vern, all of our great musicians, and "High Five Guy" for making the weekend memorable. Bigger thanks to our great staff and customers!



A beautiful day for a parade!



Pango Rhum Runners were hugely popular!



Beach 92.7 FM in the house!




The party continues starting tonight (Thursday) with live music from Joe Atti and the Flagler County Rotoract July social.

We have a special "Double Birthday" celebration Friday night with two great customers, Lauren & Kelly. If you're here Friday night, stop by their table and make them feel special! Low Profile will be rocking the stage from 6-10pm.

On Saturday, we welcome the crowd pleasing CrisTuttle Band back to our stage. It's always a party when these local favorites are here Don't miss it!

Reggae Sundays continue with Zebbhi Niyah from 1-5 this Sunday. In the evening, wrap up your weekend with the smooth vocals of Fred Terry (5:30-9:30).
