Raccoon Motel in Davenport, Iowa, is a trendy, vibrant venue that offers a unique blend of live music and laid-back atmosphere. Recently revamped in a historic space, the venue provides an intimate concert experience with a capacity of about 200 people, making it perfect for both local and touring acts. The venue stands out for its separate bar area, which helps maintain a quieter, more relaxed space for those looking to take a break from the music.

Known for hosting a diverse lineup of artists, from indie acts to larger shows, Raccoon Motel ensures great acoustics and a cozy vibe that allows for a comfortable yet energetic night out. The interior features funky decor that complements its lively musical programming. While it’s a standing-room-only venue for performances, the space doesn't feel cramped, and patrons appreciate the ease of movement compared to more crowded spots.

If you're in the mood for good music, a welcoming atmosphere, and a bit of fun, Raccoon Motel delivers a great experience. It's quickly become a favorite spot for music lovers in the Quad Cities area.

Disappointing! Arrived to discover that public karaoke apparently meant two 50+ gentlemen doing lengthy performances at their discretion, as in every other song. The person controlling the soundboard was clearly NOT CONTROLLING anything! We were under the impression this was a private event. Regardless, it was not an experience worth repeating.
Return worthy!? NO!

Great venue to chill, hang out, and meet new people to share our experiences. The first time there was to see VEAUX & The Foxies! Outstanding performances! Although, they should definitely add Coronas onto their menus!

An amazing small concert venue in the Midwest with a great funky atmosphere. The separate bar area with a soundproof door it a great place to drop in for a drink or just take a break from the show. The space inside for the concert is standing only and feels like you're in a small, almost private concert with the band or artist. They also get an impressive lineup every year, I always make sure to catch a show when I'm back in the QC.

A great venue with eclectic decor and a friendly atmosphere! They have an excellent selection of beer in cans or on draft. Plenty of places to park nearby or across the street in a free lot. Located next to Ragged Records! Many food options are within walking distance before the show!
