From local coffee, video and board games galore, a full bar (with THC and NA options, bless!), and a live music room, Saturn guarantees a fun outing. You could easily come here and not spend any money- simply sit back with friends and a board game, and your night doesn't have to cost a dime! My boyfriend and I hung out here for the evening playing Scrabble while nursing on a Seltzer. This is truly one of Birmingham's best spots, period. The inside is so unique and thoughtfully decorated. Birmingham is lucky to have a spot like Saturn!

Saturn is a cool venue! I forget about it , unfortunately! I was recently here for a MOTH event and…read moreI had a nice time. There isn't any food but there is an extensive drink menu. Pricing is decent. The staff were cool but not overly friendly. I feel like there is so much nostalgia here! Board games and old school video games are available. I have added Saturn to my list of places to frequent more in 2025. I don't recommend the frozen drinks , they weren't good to.

Above Birmingham's famed Avondale Brewery is a simple, understated space that doubles as the perfect venue for a rehearsal dinner. Exposed brick, hardwood floors, and stringed lights come together to create a romantic atmosphere that can accommodate up to 140 people. "Past couples have said their rehearsal dinner upstairs set the weekend off right and made for the perfect night," says Lauren Fitch, events manager for the space. With plenty of room to bring in outside decor and freedom to choose a caterer, the space is great for couples seeking a customized evening. Avondale provides seating for up to 75 people, and guests are privy to the brewery's beloved beers. "Couples who want a relaxed, romantic evening with their loved ones would enjoy this space," Fitch adds. "The space is beautiful with simple decorations, is warm, and is inviting." - Birmingham Magazine

But we'd spent the day at McWane Center and we were starving so we were there to EAT! The food looked gorgeous but it tasted very meh. The onion rings had too much breading on them, which I didn't think was possible, but here we are. The part of the breading next to the onion was mushy so that threw off the texture of the whole thing too. The burger was very much like a Whataburger. Even the lettuce smelled the same. I got The Standard and the bun of the burger was a little mushy (similar to Whataburger) and there was not much meat. For an $11 burger, I'm expecting more than a Whataburger. My middle kid likes everything on her burger and isn't picky at all and the loaded kid burger looked impressive but it was about the same as mine. Not awful, but not very good either. Very close to the same amount of meat. She's the queen of the Clean Plate Club and she only ate half. The fries were good but a somewhat too salty, the dip that came with the onion rings was excellent and we ended up using it for the fries. We had 2 adults and 3 kids and our meal was $63 before tip for 5 waters, 2 adult burgers, 2 kid burgers, a kid grilled cheese, and a basket of fries and onion rings (I thought I was ordering a "side" of fries, not realizing I actually ordered a basket and it was a lot of fries and onion rings). We don't mind spending money on good food, but the prices here don't align with what you get. No one was more disappointed than me, I've been wanting to eat here for FOREVER!!!

I love this place so much that I may become a member! I encourage the city to please support this independent cinema. It's a nice space that we want to keep around for a very long time.
