Nice venue! Downtown Wilmington. Good vibes, nice acoustics, and intimate experience. I came here…read moreto see Stop Light Observations acoustic, and you were great. Service was awesome, but like any music from you, the price was kinda hefty for drinks. Bud Lights, for example, were $5 each. But it is what it is! I Ubered here, so I didn't have to deal with parking, but I imagine parking might be a little hectic considering it's straight up and downtown Wilmington and there's no designated lot. But overall, this was a good venue and I will be back if there's a good show.

I had my first experience at Bourjie Nights lastnight. We went to see the Halloween Burlesque show…read more We arrived and stood in the line to get in. There is a parking garage very close and the parking prices are very reasonable. I highly recommend parking there. The interior of BN is intimate, small and kind of chaotic. I love the feel and vibe of the place. The drink list is rather small compared to most places but they pour a great drink. Bartenders were friendly, and worked timely. Bathroom lines seemed to take forever. The reason that I didn't give 5 stars is because the seating is so cramped. They have low seats, then higher chairs. If you are near the wall, it is almost impossible to get a drink without annoying someone when you get out. If you plan on getting up a lot then definitely sit on the side by the bar wall or in the back. Show was great and we had a great time.

Service was excellent and the location is perfect if you're out downtown. Drinks were a mixed bag. The smoked Old Fashioned looked good but wasn't anything special. My Kiss of Fire had a nice spicy kick at first, but it watered down really quickly, probably from the ice, so it didn't hold up the way I hoped. Overall though, it's a cool spot with great service and a fun atmosphere. Definitely worth checking out if you're in Wilmington.

Cocktails and live music were awesome but music was SO loud!!!

My espresso martini was delicious but a little pricey. If I were looking to sit by myself and listen to music, this would be a great spot - just not ideal for the start to a night out with friends due to the noise level. I wish there were a more secluded area we could choose to sit in to hear each other.

Definitely an older crowd and more extravagantly dressed or oddly dressed people. They had the best amaretto sour's I've ever had. The bartender was super friendly.

Anyway, awesome owner, good crowd of regulars, weird art, relaxed atmosphere with cool bartenders who are chill but don't tolerate bullshit! Also I saw a weird review commenting on the membership card thing acting like it was personal but everyone has to have a card (which are a buck/free) and that is an Alcohol Law Enforcement/NC law- bars that don't serve food (or make over a certain percent of sales in alcohol) technically have to be considered a 'private club' -hence the membership cards! Anyway if you want a beer, some shots, or just in general to get a drink somewhere other than the same old bars on front street that everyone packs into, head down Grace St and discover your new favorite hole-in-the-wall and meet your new weirdo friends!

The inside looks really nice and has lots of different fun seating, including couches and different chairs. It was pretty empty when I came, so there were lots of places to sit. The service is where I had a problem. We came in at 10:50 and were informed that last call was at 11, so we closed out our tabs. The place has it posted that they close at 12, so we anticipated having some time to sit there. However, around 11:15 the bouncer came around and told us we had to get out. I wasn't even done with my drink yet, so I finished it quickly and we left. The bartenders were very nice, but someone should have let us know they were closing early before just kicking us out while we were still working on our drinks.
