World class! Saw May Erlewine here, and it was a stunning show. The space is gorgeous, the staff and food were wonderful. I hope to return soon!
Intimate music venue that is welcoming and most enjoyable. Limited menu of food and drinks should meet your needs. We had the cheese platter and it was delicious. The act that evening was great. We will be back again.
First time here, we saw Roomful of Blues. The band was good, the volunteers were great! The wine was horrid. I couldn't even choke down 1 glass. The space could be great except the load you in like cattle. It was so dang hot in there that we ended up leaving after a hour. Funny thing is the announcer in the beginning commented about having a great time and feel free to get up and dance. Everyone around us was like "where could we possibly do that?" Then halfway through the set the singer said the same thing lol. Could be a great venue. I get that it's a non profit but if they took out a third of the tables and charged a 3rd more for the tickets it would be much more pleasant in my opinion.
We went to see Peter Yarrow. We knew there were no meals to he had there, just noshes.
I had the spinach artichoke dip and my friend had the large hummus plate. Both were ok.
But we didn't come there for the food, we came to see Peter. He was great!
Great venue for shows. Acoustics are fantastic. The seating at tables is very nice. Every seat feels close to the stage.
What a great experience- Mateo and the whole crew from the station were so accommodating, friendly and overall awesome. This place does a lot for the community and we’re all happy that they are doing what they’re doing! Rubblebucket loves you guys and we can’t wait to come back- thank you again for the kindness and support that you have showed the band over the years! Keep on keeping on
Small but quaint music venue. Intimate setting. Nice historical photos adorn the walls. Food and drinks are limited but reasonable.
It started small and it's stayed that way. Operating since the 60's this is a place where 'the greats' played before they were great. With seating for just over 100, at tables and on couches, this storied music venue has an intimate atmosphere that unites the audience and the performer. There is a menu offering beer, wine and non-alcoholic drinks as well as a few appetizers and snacks.
