    Overall this place was BS. Sorry to be harsh but not sorry. Reviews looked good. Ambiance was gonna be cool. Walked in it was chill, live music ... great... friendly cool waitress ... great. Ordered food ..waitress suggested a certain chicken sandwich , okay sure why not. Place was quiet at 650 on a sat nite. Again, cool ambiance, really chill, music and all. An hour goes by barely any food coming out of kitchen, told the waitress we're being patient but it's running thin. Waited an hour an 15 minutes no food.l except the small salad (that came with sandwich which never came). Ridiculous. We Walked out. Left money for the salad , way more than enough for the salad. The place is bullshit. Either say the food is gonna take an hour plus, your call, but no, they don't give a hoot. Could hear no movement in the kitchen. Only to be told only one "chef" on Staff. Still I could cook faster. Again this place ruined a great day on the river followed by a great winery nearby. This place blows ! As cute as it is , it blows. Maybe they could care less on ethnic or lgbtq too. Other places at the corner could've spent money at. They call it starving artist for a reason, we left starving. BS.

    Eclectic, funky, cool on the outside and inside. There were lives tunes. A giant chalkboard menu of specials. Art all over the walls. And an Elvis Christmas tree. What's not to like? Got wings and a sandwich. Absolutely nothing fancy or gourmet but it works for a cold, rainy day in Stockton. *AND* for dirt cheap. Bathroom is tight so no fun for my big bum but it works too for a cold, rainy day in Stockton. Lol. Cook came out to talk to us. That was a nice touch. Just a chill kinda guy who looked like he much prefer hanging with the band than being stuck cooking. I would probably be the same.

    The food is amazing and the price is right! Breakfast, lunch, and live music in a rockin' café setting! Take a break from the crowds in Lambertville & New Hope, and make your way about 10 minutes up the river to the best low-key meal this side of the Delaware where proprietor Tod the Mod will to bring you a most unforgettable experience "somewhere north of Nashville".

    I used Exit Row Band once for an event I hosted after hearing them perform several times at town…read moreconcerts in New Jersey. They're a cover band that does a great mix of classic rock covers as well as new top 40 hits. What a great band! They were an absolute pleasure to deal with, everyone was extremely professional and on time. They took really short breaks and even played late because everyone was having so much fun. We had about 300 people and the dance floor was PACKED! All my guests were thrilled with their performance and didn't want it to end. If you're looking for high-quality music for a corporate event or a private function I highly recommend them!

This band performed hits from the 80s, 90s, 2000s, and now. If I was to summarize this type of playlist the band was performing, I would say "Hot Adult Contemporary". As soon as the attendees rolled into the event tent, the band started rocking away. They played a mixture of rock and pop hits throughout the entire event duration. That gave everyone the chance to view, listen, and even sing a long to their performances. What a way to bring great people together, Ed Z! The band was rocking so loud that we could even hear them outside when my friends and I went to the pumpkin patch and house to snap some photos. The original plan was for them to perform outside. But because of the rain, they had to perform inside. This weather-related change didn't hurt their spirit at all. In fact, they performed without even caring about the rain. This band no doubt has an edge over some of the other bands whom I encountered on my previous 25th cruise, which is based on their performance qualities and professionalism. Based on how they performed, it was quite easy for me to see and hear why they are always booked and only have a very limited amount of time for public events. For this case, the General Yelp Event was a private one. Overall, this is an excellent cover band, and probably the best one that I have ever heard. If you can catch them at a public event, then I recommend doing so. I also recommend booking them if you can.

We had a wonderful reception! JP was our DJ and he was personable, responsive to our emails and texts, and knowledgeable in answering our many questions! The music selection website was also easy to use and connect to our Spotify playlist. JP was easy to get along with and he was even kind enough to have a Tide-To-Go pen on hand and cleaned my wedding dress when I spilled chocolate sauce on it! The dancing with the clouds was amazing and elevated our first dance to look straight out of a fairy tale, and the sparklers shot out at the perfect moment of our lift. The traditional photo booth was more cramped than we expected, so if we knew the small size we may have opted for a different type of photo booth, but it seemed to not bother our guests and was a good size for fitting 4 people. We also love the photo booth souvenir book that Posh DJs prepared for us that was really clean and well-organized. JP did play all our must-play songs and songs from our "play if possible" list, and also did play the requested instrumental music during dinner. On the day of the wedding, we were worried that our guests wouldn't dance during reception so we let him know that we were okay if he played some songs off our list to get the crowd going. Later, we weren't sure if we should have given that direction since the first dance set had too many songs that we DIDN'T know. (My husband and I are not familiar with older songs, so we didn't recognize any of those songs in the first dance set). However, JP checked in with us after the first dance set and we asked him if he could play more songs from our playlist and we were happier with our second and third dance sets. We had discussed with JP during our final call that we wanted to do a napkin game to "raffle" off the centerpieces to our guests, but on the day before the wedding we had squeezed in last minute sparklers (we didn't think it was possible to light them since it was pouring rain, but we ended up being able to when the venue told us we could have sparklers on a covered patio), so in all the commotion we had forgotten about the napkin game and most of the centerpieces were left at the venue, which I wish we could have distributed to our guests. But overall, I am happy with Posh DJs and JP and thank you for contributing to our magical wedding!

This has given me two unique perspectives as I've gotten to experience what it was like having them at my own wedding, as well as experiencing them at a wedding at which I was a guest. I can honestly say both occasions felt like magical moments where time stood still and one could really feel the specialness and momentousness of the ceremony. Taking a breath to hear Sonya and Gabe's soaring, impeccable harmonies fill the space as everyone present soaked in the moment, defined and highlighted what it is that is so outstanding and important about weddings for me in the first place. What is so unique about Tiny Home is their ability to not only be marvelous singers and performers (which they surely are!), but their ability to transcend their own performance in a way that uplifts the moment and allows everyone to bask in the love and glow that is already all around. In addition, Gabe and Sonya were very professional, responsible and reliable when it came to everything from planning logistics, to bringing the sound system, and they were excellent communicators both in person, email and phone.
