Stopped by tonight to see a band, Crazy Fingers, and was welcomed at the door by Tommy Two Thumbs in a tie-dyed t-shirt and welcoming demeanor. He isnt in this band, but is a musician too. I got here early to get a table, since Im meeting some friends and it is.more comfortable to sit than stand. I ordered an ice cold.beer from the nice bartender and had theor hot roast beef sandwich with Swiss cheese, caramelized onions and horseradish sauce. To my delight, everything has been on point so far. I took some pictures to share. Its a great vibe here and encapsulates the cool, downtown, Lake Worth Beach cast of laid back, creative, interesting characters. If that's your speed, you will definitely be at home here Downstairs is another cool venue, called Rudy's Pub. They are the same owners, and host live music too. Im looking forward to the music to start. Ive only heard great things about this Grateful Dead cover band. read more

The venue is nice for watching performances. The air is a relax feel. The chairs are a tad bit hard and uncomfortable. They have beers and crafts and some food items. I would not recommend getting food here as it's very unseasoned. It is box food so it's a quick heat up. They do not have a fryer in the back so fried food listed are actually frozen put in an unconventional oven. Service was good friendly. Bathrooms are clean. read more

Great place for music & food.seen Backtrack Blues Band & it was not a bar band. Great show & great people.Will be back

I've visited twice for the Saturday afternoon pickers event. The first, by accident. The second, intentional. First time in, I was the only person at the bar. The bartender was cordial and warmed up throughout my stay. The music started slow but players trickled in through the afternoon as did a few tables of listeners. In the end, I had a terrific time. Second time in I brought my wife. Open Jams are not her Jam (cute huh? :). She had a blast! The bartender is cool guy. Can't speak to his skills, we drank beer and seltzer but in all, it's a cool place with energy and a bohemian feel. I'm the least bohemian guy in any room and I enjoyed it. read more

Countering John W's review, I'd have to say I am scratching my head on his issue? The Bamboo has a full bar, great service, and a very good sound system in place. In fact, the owner just upgraded the side speakers with new JBLs that kick ass. John, please let me know what you'd like to see improved and we will gladly look into it! Marty read more

Great owner and staff. Fun live music. Love this place. My favorite is the Sunday 5-8 blues music and the events on the patio.

Unbelievable......with a drink selection that can only be described as paltry, sound quality that is reminiscent of a grade school gym, and service that raises "reticence" to an art from, it's hard to believe that this place survives the slow season. I wonder when Marty will decide his battle might have been poorly chosen? read more

Things must be VASTLY different in LWB from Charleston....and that doesn't seem like a good thing, considering how important the tourist trade is to Florida. Look, if a place can manage to survive here with poor service, poor sound quality, and terrible beverage selection, more power to you, but at home they wouldn't last a month. Jes sayin...... read more

Look, I really wish I could follow my mother's guidelines ("if you can't say something nice....."), but There just isn't very much here that is scraping the absolute bottom. Acoustics are mediocre at best, beverage selection is not EVEN mediocre, and employees must have been recruited from the Vlad Putin Charm School. Seriously..... read more

Oh, boy.....where to start? Beverage selection is paltry, service is slow and resentful. I'm really not certain how they manage to continue, but I guess it's true what they say about nature abhors a vacuum. Really poor experience..... read more

Speaking as a visitor to the music scene, and a musician who plays actively up and down the east coast, this might be the least welcoming, most insular music venue I have ever visited. Saturday song circle is completely closed to visitors. Knowing there was an art festival in town this weekend, I called and visited several times during the 4 days prior to, and was repeatedly told it would be an event open to visiting musicians. Nope.....not even SLIGHTLY. If you're not a regular, cold shoulder. I've had warmer welcomes at punk bars in NY. read more

I was recently In Lake Worth and had the chance, a couple of times, to participate in the Wednesday Night Open Mic event. First of all, what a great space and stage with a very cool vibe that hearkens to a bygone era - it's worth the trek up the stairs just to take in all of that. There is the customary signup sheet that allows each performer a two-song slot in the running order, along with the " Featured Artists" who, from what I understand, are local/ regional players who do a handful of tunes at the midway point in the evening. Marty Jennings, the MC, handles the sign-up sheet, sets the stage, mixes the sound and at times accompanies performers deftly on guitar from behind the mixing board. A wide range of styles /skill levels describes the various performers and with the audience members largely being players themselves, there's a warm, supportive "jury" if you will, of ones' peers - for such a large room, it is surprising how quiet a listening room it can become. It is my understanding that the performers' starting time has now been expanded to run 6:00 - 10:00 to accommodate increased participation, so I would confirm timing before heading to The Bamboo Room. My guess is that you will be returning. Clark Robins, Richmond VA read more

I have NO idea what anyone sees in this place. Beverage selection is awful, service is terrible, management is arrogant and self important....but I guess when you're the only game in town, you really don't have to offer very much! read more

The food was delicious. Yes you have to go down steps to order then bring your food back up but it's so worth it. I was annoyed about the up and down and all around the town journey but once I tasted the flavor in the salmon pasta......I forgot I the journey even happened!!! :-) The service in the actual bamboo room was great. Our waitress was very attentive and on point. Also super friendly! The DJ had the place rocking. You won't want to stay seated because he will make you say "That's my song" multiple times throughout the night!!! The crowd was fun!!! I really enjoyed my night! You feel like you're amongst family. read more

Super fun venue for live music. I never ordered food until last night when I discovered their meatball parm sub. OMG!!! Don't be afraid to take advantage of that kitchen!! Would give 5 stars if there was a full bar. read more

High ceilings, lots of wood, great dance floor and a great A/c system. Add the great bar and this place makes a great destination for a night of dancing. Tuesday night was Salsa night. (No clue if this will be a standard as it currently seems every week there is some new group hosting an event.) Around 8-8:30p there was a brief dance lesson. For those that have never danced before you will be equipped with enough knowledge to trot through a song. You keep it up and you'll be doing circles around the room. I took a table to people watch. Super friend folks found their way to be including a few cool bartenders/servers. Those friendly face tells me more about the owners. I loved how one praised their bosses' giving hearts with wanting the place to not solely be a bar but also connecting the community my feeding and clothing the homeless population in the area. The dj played some great music but the set up would be perfect for a live band, he drinks are great and the vibes are nice. I'm a fan! read more

Bamboo Room seems to have changed ownership at least a couple of times since I moved to Lake Worth four years ago. Nowadays, it seems to be open as needed to either host live music or the Recovery Church meetings, depending on the day of the week, and what shows have been booked. The venue is a cool place to watch live music, regardless of the genre you prefer, with a stylish Polynesian look that's spacious to hold plenty of people. Recently, I saw some local SFL bands perform at Bamboo Room, and the acoustics were solid for listening to the music. Being that they are not open consistently, their alcohol selection is limited to put it nicely. On the given night that I attended the show, they had only a few types of beer available, a couple of wines, whiskeys, and vodkas. I ended up having a couple of PBRs for $2 a can, which was a good deal. If you're able to catch a show here though, then that's why you come to Bamboo Room. And it's a cool place to check out live music. read more

I have fun every time I visit this place! There are two levels of entertainment going on at the same time... One level is Reggae and the other R&B... Both levels are on point! Me & my guest seem to always end up on the R&B level. The different bands & DJ's will make you get up and dance or sing your heart out. The food have been good, although I've only tried the finger foods. The waitresses are very attentive, friendly and on point. The ambiance is a nice vibe. I'll definitely recommend this place and I plan to return again. read more

Service sucked. The servers seemed more interested in hitting the hookahs and drama on the patio. Band was amazing. Food was great. read more

I come here often and was surprised about the night I had. We came the day before thanksgiving and a live band was playing who did really good! However the food was not the best as i usually eat the lemon pepper wings. The chicken tenders were decent but they were cold and when asked for sauce was never given to us. Also, we had to get up multiple times to get our waiter as she forgot our orders multiple times. I just ended up ordering from the bar or trying to wait. I will return but maybe it was a bad night . Ps. The dj And vibes is always right here!! read more

Excellent vibe and customer service. I visited with a friend from out of town and it was great! The music, team and vibe was great

We were visiting a friend in Boynton Beach and had a great time on the back patio dancing to the reggae band last year. So much so that we decided to rent an Airbnb here for a week to be able to really enjoy Lake Worth Beach.

Very nice spot! We went one night just expecting a grown and sexy lounge and got more than we bargained for! It was comedy night! After the show the DJ took over and it was a good time! Bottle service, hookah and the BEST service by our hostess Julie and the rest of the wait staff. Even the restroom attendant was happy and very courteous! Definitely recommend read more

I have been to this place 5-6 times over the past year. And it's an absolutely fabulous venue for music. The layout is great: Bar, seating area, dance area & stage. The Servers & Bartenders were fabulous: pleasant & efficient. And the booking agent is REALLY GOOD. Awesome acts from around the U.S. & overseas. Def varied. What is really unfortunate is the Mgmt clearly is LACKING with PROMOTING BANDS here which is its biggest issue. THEY ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO ADVERTISE ON THE RADIO, SOCIAL MEDIA & NEWSPAPERS. This club IS JUST OFF THE MAIN DRAG OF LW. I know a TON of people that would come her but 99% of them don't even know it's here & the acts that are playing. It's actually really unfortunate. Because small live music venues that book great quality musicians is HARD TO FIND, ESPECIALLY IN FLORIDA. read more

First time here celebrating my little sister's birthday!!! Outside patio is nice, security very nice and polite! Food was less than desirable! Shrimp and grits was horrible, the grits was undercooked and super clumpy! Shrimp was hard! My friend had chicken and waffles and the waffles weren't cooked!! Since I was hungry as I couldn't eat the shrimp and grits, I ordered an order of French fries, it took over 33 minutes to arrive "cold"... bathroom was dirty! The DJ was slamming, he knows how to play and transitions nicely! Don't think I will be back!! read more

The Bamboo Room has reopened under new ownership - which I was very, very excited about over the July 4th weekend. Two friends and I were strolling around downtown Lake Worth after the fireworks display, looking for something to do, and noticed that the Bamboo Room was open for business again. Naturally, I wanted to go inside. Just for a little bit of background - I'm 25 and my other friends are 23 and 21. We all look relatively young, and the youngest happens to be Asian. We all get regularly IDed at bars, which is to be expected. I'd hate to put any of my favorite businesses at risk, and I don't mind the process. The bouncer at the entrance scrutinized our licenses, and after confirming our ages, let us into the bar. We sat down and enjoyed the music for a total of five minutes before an older, wiry guy (perhaps the manager?) rudely told us to come with him. This happened in front of many patrons, and happened before we could even order a drink. We went to the antechamber on the second floor, and he proceeded to question us about our ages. I told him that we had already been IDed and that we were old enough to be in the bar. He summoned over four other bouncers and yelled at the bouncer on the first floor to come up. They surrounded us and forced us to hand over our IDs yet again. They told my 21 year old Asian friend that he "looks like he's twelve" and told us that we look far too young to be at any bar. They insulted us, passed our IDs around, and were incredibly rude. After spending several minutes browbeating us about our ages, the manager told us we could go back inside. I felt so insulted by the entire process that I told him I'd never be back. The original bouncer maintained that he checked our IDs and even remembered our birth years. He was ignored. Overall, I will never be going back to the Bamboo Room. It was quite obvious that my friend was singled out because of his ethnicity and we were all blatantly insulted for our appearances. The entire experience was unprofessional, incredibly rude, and aggressive. Sure, the music is great and the bar is cool as hell - but to insult three patrons for their appearance on July 4th is absolutely unforgivable. If you're not old and white, this isn't the place for you. read more

The Bamboo Room in Lake Worth is THE place for Live Music. Since Reopening in Feb 2011, they have outdone themselves with booking the coolest acts : ) 3 nights of solo JJ Grey, The Legendary JC's, Tinsley Ellis, Jimmy Thackery, music fans can rejoice again! Coming this month Tab Benoit! SOOOOOoo happy the Bamboo Room is back open.... Thank you!!!!! read more

We have attended perhaps a dozen concerts here and without exception they have been great. The volume of the music is often way to loud (it actually hurts our ears)which reduces the quality of the music but after a couple beers that is less of a bother. The venue is the best and it is kept very clean. Just about any weekend you can find top notch talent here. read more

Visited last night and love the place. Nice atmosphere. Friendly waitstaff and crew. Check it out.

The Bamboo Room has a great booker, a very so-so bar, mostly because their bartenders SUCK at making mixed drinks, and zero food, which makes the often hours long waits if you want a table pretty unbearable. I don't really want to drink 2+ hours to see J.J. Grey with no opening act and no food. BORING. I've also been nights when the act's band bailed, and it turned into tragedy. The acoustics are good, could be better, and the sound system is good as well, not awesome. If they served food, even some bar snacks, they get a star back. Fire the baretenders and get someone who can mix drinks and they get the other star back. read more

Well I appreciate your concern, but you were obviously paying attention long enough to give me respect I deserve so here goes!!!!!!! It isn't the $5.00 at all and my $5.00 didn't help pay the band. It paid the electric and advertising etc.. Please don't try to tell me what I was "Ripped Off" for. If the guy next to me didn't pay, I shouldn't have either!!!!!' Bottom Line!!!!!! As a "Doorman" in ANY club I've ever worked in, I never took a cover if we didn't even fill the seats at the bar. That customer you "Ripped Off" may have come back again and if you are an owner you need returning customers NOT their $5.00. You are not a very bright business person and I suggest everyone wanting to see real entertainment ho to Broghues Down Under Thursday thru Saturday for good bands. I've been going to bands longer than you are old so please don't try to school me please!!!! read more

Beautiful venue, the bar is gorgeous! Reason enough to visit Lake Worth. I almost didn't take the drive because for some reason, Google says it's closed on Thursday's!! Luckily, it was opened, Chloe Dolandis was playing, and I will definitely be back with friends. read more

What a gem! Found this place via a Google search for live jazz/blues music. My fiance and I are new to area, and didn't even know of the Bamboo Room's existence. We bought tickets for the Tim Reynolds solo acoustic set on 8/16/13 and had a fantastic time! The venue has such charm, is clean, and smoke-free. The bathrooms were accessible, and maintained well. The music was amazing, especially such a nice intimate setting, and we were able to enjoy from a high-top table near the bar. The drinks are very reasonably priced, but the service was a tad slow. My only suggestion would be the addition of a menu with some food items, but there seems to be lots of places nearby to grab a bite before/after the show. read more
