They had 1 person scanning tickets at a sold out show. 1/2 the crowd missed the first half of the show. The band we paid money to see was already done playing by the time we got in. Took 45 minutes to get in. Super frustrating.

Cool little dive bar-esque spot that happens to have a huge music hall in the back. Came for a concert. Concert was solid and the venue is not too big not too small. Good acoustics and the staff was pretty efficient and made you feel safe without standing over you.Food was meh, I had the shwarma Burger which I was kinda excited about as it seemed unique. It was again just kinda meh. Thin patty they throw some spice on. The pickled cabbage was delightful however and the bun was good. I also really liked this orange spicy sauce that was like a aioli I think. Chips were house made which is a plus but again - shwarma spices all over and not great. I asked for ketchup when I first got the Burger and the lady kinda sighed and rolled her eyes which was the only bad service experience I had here. Overall, I'd skip the food going forward.Drinks were good, bartender knowledgeable and nice like a bartender should be. Getting in the door was kinda a hassle for some reason and it took awhile standing outside, but not completely ridiculous by any means. Parking is easy either on street or in a 20 dollar ramp connected to this place.Overall I'd go back for the bands and the booze, but the food - even for bar food - was not anything good.

We were here for a concert tonight, and I just have to complain about the coordination and event management.Doors were at 6, and the line was not moving. When it finally started moving about 20 mins later, it was very slow. After getting in the door, the line was still so long and slow-moving that we missed the first third of the set of the opening band (who we came to see!!). It was so poorly managed. It was inefficient and badly done, and so disappointing. Especially since where we had to wait was completely separated from the concert hall, so we couldn’t see the band at all. Very sad.

This place should honestly reconsider their ticket policy. You have to buy online, no tickets available in person. Ok, 60 dollars turns into 80. 30% mark up in fees.What a great way to alienate patrons!

One of the servers was incredibly racist and treated my friends and I so poorly. The service was overall terrible and the drinks were not any better. I would truly recommend any other bar in St. Paul.

One of the most amazing places I've ever been really really good beer and really great bands play cure awesome atmosphere would go again 10/10
Went on a sleepy Thursday night. This is a bar and the grill plays second fiddle but is not bad. Greasy hamburger was tasty as were the fries. Half price selected tap beer and wine during happy hour 3-6 pm M-
I find it pretty pathetic this place can’t offer women privacy because of their rtarded views surrounding gender… why do you hate women?

This is a really underrated spot which ticks a lot of boxes. Craft beer (local and imports), live music (the sound has been really good on the shows I've seen there), friendly service, small but interesting food menu, and a unique space that is basically a large rectangle so you can see the band from anywhere in the place. Nice location in downtown Saint Paul on a corner ok Wabasha Street. Pretty easy to find a street metered parking spot nearby unless there is an event at the Xcel Energy Center, RiverCenter, or Ordway. Located a short walk from all those places, so also a good spot for pre- or post- food or drinks.

Was there for a private event, it was SO much fun.. but I got sick from the loaded potatoes that they made. I’ve been unfortunately sick the past 4 days from it. Everything was amazing except that specific item.
Great place to hang out at on St. Patrick’s
