Bottom line up front: false advertising for the main performer. Show "started" at 7PM. Yea well it…read morewas all opening acts from 7:30-10:25. Nearly 3 hours of amateur performers. Some were God awful. It felt like open mic night karaoke at some points. Embarrassing. The crowd was frustrated. The main advertised performer was only on stage for about 40 minutes. His performance was great! I just don't think it was worth the pain of 3 hours of standing and anxiously waiting in a jam-packed crowd. The only pro is that the location is a smaller, intimate venue especially if you are near the stage. Again, blatant false advertising. They milked the crowd to buy drinks for hours while we were hoping the main act would show soon to perform. Some people left early. Never coming here again. Good luck...

CoCo and I went to see Halestorm living room sessions and the line started at the parking garage on Jefferson, wrapped around 2 corners of the building. We showed up pretty late and watched the line stay that long even after we were finally inside. Once inside, we we were surprised to have more options to stand than we expected. The sound team did an amazing job. It was an acoustic concert for the most part. The venue create an intimate enough atmosphere being that it is small inside. Drink are HEAVILY over priced. To the point of not buying one. Do your pregame before. Restrooms where clean enough and managed by security throughout the concert.

Wild Greg's Saloon is a bit of a dive bar and I mean that in the best possible way…read more We grabbed a spot outside during the Pensacola Christmas parade and Wild Greg's had an outdoor bar set up, which made it an ideal place to park and enjoy the evening. Inside, the place fully commits to its personality. The bar stools are literal swings hanging from the ceiling. Yes, swings. It is exactly as entertaining as it sounds. The bar service was fast and mostly friendly, even with the crowd. There was live music going and plenty of pool tables, so there is always something happening. The energy is fun, casual, and unapologetically unpolished. This is not a posh wine bar and it is not trying to be. If you want a lively, slightly chaotic, very memorable local spot, you should absolutely check it out when you are in town.

What I didn't like was having to "check in" and pay a cover at the entrance and get my hand stamped... this is fine for the youngsters, but at my age, I'm past this sort of mess and it was "telling" to me what kind of adventure we'd be into once inside. It's crazy loud in each room in this venue, so loud you couldn't really talk with those you were with. We even saw "youngsters" walk in, have the same difficulty and leave. I feel they could do a much better job with this place, but offering a great food menu which matched the themes of each room and by toning down the sound a little. Overall, it was 'meh' I'm not interested in returning.

Well I'm here in the area working for a few months. I love seeing what locals embrace. This little…read moretheater seems to be just that. I found this place by searching around the internet. It listed a comedy-magic show for $26 advance purchase (it's $30 at door). I paid at the door with a credit card...which then included a small processing fee. I don't know if the fee is waived with a cash payment. To the best of my knowledge, it was street parking only. This place also appeared to be ADA compliant and wheelchair accessible. Now there aren't mounted seats inside. It's more of an open floor arrangement which allows for seating changes as needed (with folding chairs). There's also an elevated seating area. There were no concessions that I noticed. So the show I saw featured Tom Coverly...a 90 minute comedy-magic act that involves audience participation. Although his show is themed around magic, I felt it was primarily comedy. There were lots of young kids and teenagers in the audience. Although comedy, his act was kid appropriate. Tom mentioned that proceeds from his performances go toward local support, but I can't recall specifically what it was...sorry. He also mentioned that the theater has other nights with standup comedians and that there'll also be some jazz nights. For me, his act was good and funny but not a gut buster. But your funny bone may break, so please be your own judge. So I definitely enjoyed the show and I'll probably catch other performances here during my lengthy stay.

This event venue is owned by a local church. Not certain if it ever has events that aren't…read morereligiously-themed, as the intarwebs are sparse with information about that. I recently attended a Christmas sing-along, because my friend is part of a choral group that was there. The church has done a fantastic job of renovating this almost century-old edifice. The foyer is bright and welcoming and the bathroom (the men's, at least) is exceptionally spotless and well-outfitted. The entire place was spotless, actually. There's a small stage in the back, floor seating, and then a tiered, elevated seating section to the back (which is towards the front of the building). The acoustics aren't audiophile approved, but I wasn't listening to Mozart, so the sound was just fine. In one of the front windows, there is displayed a circa-1930s film projector, which looks like it would require 3-4 highly-trained technicians to operate. If you are ever walking by the Rex, slow down and peep that thing. Lots of history in downtown Pensacola, and I applaud the church for reviving, improving, and maintaining a little part of it.

You can genuinely tell how much pride the team takes in their work and how much they enjoy coming up with fun, creative drinks. I'm not much of a bourbon drinker myself, but I have to appreciate their impressive bourbon selection and their bourbon wall is seriously beautiful! The whole place has such a laid back, welcoming vibe, and it's refreshing to find somewhere that feels a little more grown up and relaxed without being packed with a bunch of young kids. Definitely one of those spots you can sit back, enjoy a great drink, and take in the atmosphere! And if you're lucky, they may be playing Harry Potter on the projector!
