Used to love coming here, they used to book great acts pre COVID but the quality of acts they book has fallen off dramatically since they reopened post COVID. Not sure why that is. Gone for a couple comedy shows and the atmosphere and set up is still great but I haven’t been here for an actual concert since early 2020. I’ve emailed the owners regarding this a couple of times with suggestions of artists they have booked in the past and have not received a response either time. I hope they address this soon and improve the quality of acts they book. The Canadian border has been fully open for almost 2 years so I would have expected better quality acts since this is usually a stopping point for artists traveling between Boston and Montreal. I expect more from them and know they can do better

Been to multiple shows here. Won’t be back. Hosting an artist who supports genocide is disgusting

Show was great, big open bar (s) sound was good we were behind the mixing board. It's definitely a place for the younger crowd. Oh.. no seats. Standing only. But fun place for sure.

I always enjoy catching a show here. They have a good selection of acts, and any place that books heavy metal bands is cool in my book. Well-stocked bar and plenty of bathrooms.

Always a great time!

Staff were great. They didn't let anything crazy happen while being friendly on that topic. The bartenders were super friendly . It is a great venue with a great atmosphere

Funky local music venue with multiple rooms. The drinks were small and a bit pricey. We had a great time, and the sound was good. My only complaint is that the place was dirty, particularly the ceiling, and there was no place to hang coats (it was January and freezing), so people were stuffing them in the back corner.

Great sound for this venue.Decent beer selection too.

The no-outside-beverage policy has room to improve. This venue carries themselves as some sort of top-tier destination with this policy. A way to solve this review to not exist would be to tell me to step out of line, put the drinks back in my car and re-enter the line. They cared too much about the entry experience to keep a line moving in order. As my drinks were thrown away into a bin by a seperate employee I approached the same security guard after the show and asked which bin I could get my drinks back from, but I was given another “no” as they seem to value their garbage just as much as their guests attending the shows.

Woke restrooms and absolutely no seating. Which is mentioned very low in the faq section, unless you are one of the dozen or so “vip’s”. Super hot inside (24 degrees outside).

Michael Buffum

Not my favorite room, but the line up is always top notch. Neighbor on 10/28/23 was fun.

We went for a show from a local band. Unfortunately there was no power that is not the problem though. The problem is the venue did not communicate at all what was happening so we waited for a long while hoping they would continue as the one and only time we spoke to someone from the venue they said "well we have no power we suggest you wait and your car and see what happens." We left 15 minutes before show started giving up hope it would go on. Had any communication been made we would have continued to wait. Very disappointing.
