The Lollipop Club from The Sopranos

Filming Location Newark, New Jersey

This is the location of Adriana's club from The Sopranos.

In the series, the club is located in Long Branch, New Jersey. However, in real life, it sits on Verona Avenue in the north of Newark, which is more than 50 miles away.

The Lollipop Club in S03E09. — In Season 3, Christopher surprises Adriana by giving her control of the Lollipop Club.

These days, the building is no longer a bar. Recent Google Street View images show it is now an evangelical Christian church called Temple Rock.

Temple Rock in Newark. — This Google Street View image of the Temple Rock community church was taken in November 2020. As you can see, the building looks noticeably different than it did back when The Sopranos was being filmed. The most obvious difference is the new color. Before Temple Rock made 90 Verona Avenue its home, the property had been lying vacant for the better part of a decade.

In the episode "The Telltale Moozadell" in Season 3, Christopher Moltisanti and his crew take control of the "Lollipop Club" after its owner, Rocco De Trollio, runs up a gambling debt.

Shortly afterward, Chrissy surprises his girlfriend, Adriana La Cerva, by bringing her to the club and telling her that she is the new manager.

Adriana is ecstatic about her new role. After assuming control, she renames it the "Crazy Horse" and turns it into a live music venue for alternative rock bands.

In Season 5, the club becomes the scene of a murder after a local drug dealer named "Matush" stabs an irate customer in the back office.
