My son and I went last night to see the Browning along with some other bands. The place is compact to be sure but it rocks. The band's all sounded great. There is no bad viewing area in the building. Even the bathrooms were clean. Parking is free near by and the crowd was friendly. I have nothing but good thing to say about the staff. I will be back for other shows and I will recommend others to come here. Cool venue!

Went for my first time a few weeks ago (Negative Approach), and I was impressed. Beer prices weren’t bad and the staff were helpful. As we entered, a big guy with a bloody nose was betting escorted out. Seems like he got jumped in the mosh pit or something, but staff were responsive. The sound was good, and it was easy to see the stage without being in the pit. Looking forward to next time.

Such a great small intimate venue. But bring ear plugs!! No barricade, one bar. Love venues like this. Good prices on drinks too. Great way to meet artists as its not a fancy venue and they usually hang around after the show. Tickets are always cheap and they have some real good artists play here. All sorts of genres. Parking is on the street but i was able to get spots real close like within a couple hundred feet or so.

Great venue! It's not a very big space, but that's ok because you get more of a personal experience. Staff is friendly and the bands are great.

Coolest place, everybody that works there is hella friendly, drinks are def on the cheaper side, and most importantly the music sounds great. Genuinely great acoustics considering it's just a lil dive. Love it here!

We just saw MIKE and really enjoyed the show. It is an intimate venue with friendly staff, comfortable atmosphere, nice sound system, and overall good vibes. We parked nearby at a free lot and noticed plenty of other parking nearby.
