Underground

First time coming to Drake Underground for a concert. Was pretty surprised by the nice intimate atmosphere for the bands Misty Blue and A Short Walk to Pluto. Upon entering the building there is coat check which was $3 and an instant photobooth that costs $5 for two pictures. My one criticism was that there appears to be two bars at the venue but only one was open resulting in big congestions. There was also a coat rack beside the bar which appeared to be free but granted it is a concert venue not sure how well secured it is. Overall would come here again for another concert in the future. The drinks at the bar were around $10+

I really enjoyed this venue and their staff. First time attending a show here recently and it was a lot of fun. Such a nice small and intimate venue. I went to see Kenya Grace. Amazing artist (so talented, creative, and definitely deserves all the best) but regarding the venue I think this really worked well for that performance. Created such a fun cozy atmosphere for her final show of the year. I also really liked Ari Hicks (great artist who I wasn't familiar with but am now a big fan). Soundstage was perfect. Everything was enjoyable about this place and its staff. Bartenders were great. Couldn't make me an aviation (lol) but I wasn't expecting that. They did have a really decent drink offering and everyone was very friendly. And probably the nicest (and also quite pretty) coat check lady ever. I highly doubt anyone is going to a venue for the bar or other team members, but it really can make or break a night depending on if the staff is good or not. And at Drake Underground everyone was really nice and professional which elevated my night out. Overall, you can tell by this review that I had a really good time and it was largely because of a really neat setting and awesome staff. It was a lot of fun. I would highly recommend looking up their schedule and finding a show of interest. You are definitely going to have a great experience.
