“There is no place that made Gainesville feel more like home than the Midnight. Go if you always like to have a jukebox in the corner, people around who make you laugh about both the difficult and the absurd and a community that accepts everyone with open arms & full tankards. Punks, hippies and hipsters abound. Challenge them to a game of Scrabble for me? tl;dr: cheap drinks, craft beer, kind people, comedy shows, board games“
“Always my favorite place to play. The crowd is very appreciative and always sings along. If you don't have a way to run your own sound, then you won't be able to perform here. We (a metal band) have played here with a solo country act, and the crowd was wild for both of us.“
“I think this place has a little bit of everything for all the tasets. If you want a bar, there are 2 sections for that. If you want to just play games, again, there are 2 rooms with a variety of games . If you want to dance upstairs is a dance floor! The music is overall good, and the drinks are quite well priced!“
“I'm a pretty practical man. This place is just what I needed. 10/10 you GOTTA try to the Coors on tap. It's absolutely delicious and you will never get enough of this place. The wall art is impeccable and the music...well the music is diverse to say the least. Come out for a good time y'all“
“If you're looking for a piece of shit hole in the wall, that will let you in and take you as one of their own go to Balls it is a fucking piece of shit. The bathrooms are shitty everything is shitty. The drinks are cheap this fucking graffiti on the wall if you want a Place for cheap drinks at the end of the night where everyone's a friend go to fucking balls it is the best place ever. The only downside is, they don't sell cigarettes, but it's OK because you can go pretty much anywhere else for them so if you have all of your people with you and you wanna have a good time at the end of the night a quiet place to chill. It's shitty and you wanna enjoy your drinks for for cheap go to Balls.“
“Bar is a bit primitive, selling mostly 12oz bottled drinks (people brought their own cozies!) and snax in bags. One very nice ? table. No one was using it so we played one game. Pinball. There were some lit up machines that were possibly Florida lottery terminals.There were two large friendly dogs. Everyone was friendly and welcoming, and there were several earnest discussions ongoing.In short, an archtypical sort of cozy local meeting place one would like to frequent. In contrast, Satchel's, across the street, seems sterile and commercial.Non-smokers might be inclined to strip, throw the clothes in the washer and shower on returning home.“
