Okay so it's a small music venue for the most part but it has a great little bar and some good…read morespace for performers to set up merchandise tables. The chairs are pretty standard for a venue like this and the stage set up looks pretty versatile. I liked the fact that the restroom was for all genders. There was some great art on display and for purchase as well. While this neighborhood is not one I visit frequently, it is an easily transit accessible location and there was street parking available in the area (I understand this is pretty limited when there's an event going on at the Stadium however). The building looks well weathered but well used as a live music venue. Purchasing tickets in advance was easy and the associated website was good. I'd definitely go to another show here. There is good acoustics for the venue in general. Signage isn't great -- it would be better if the building had better identification.

I'm super lucky I've had a few sneak previews of this place as my husbands band had their single…read morelaunch in there before it was really open to the public (and it was still a building site). From the outside it still looks like a house but it's a funky house, the window coverings are pretty iconic of The Aviary already! The cool thing is, now that it's finished I can really see how much work they have put into the place! The entrance way is more like a venue (and less like walking into a living room) it brings you round to the bar and where you pay cover etc, once properly inside the space has a nice bar the length of the room, a handful of tables and chairs, decent size stage at the back, local art displayed all round and awesome sound! The vibe is cosy, and there big emphasis on supporting local artists - I dig that. I like the beer listings on the wall - mostly craft beer and Phil knows a lot about them and recommended a really nice lager to me while I was there. I already love watching bands in this space and can't wait to go back.

Favourite club in Edmonton. They host regular cool nights such as Hip Hop Karaoke, various DJ's and…read morethe occasional band too. I went recently for an 80's night and the DJ's were great. If you don't know where it is the name is the address 9910 109 street and it's downstairs below The common. That's the line up you see as you drive past on a Friday night. It's pretty small and only holds about 130 people but it's popular so expect a line up. Check your coat, there is nowhere to keep your jackets if you want to take them off. The drinks are reasonably priced and the bar is well stocked. It's got fun vibes, and a quirky set up. You can also hire out the venue too. It would be great for an exclusive party or cool small wedding.

9910 is a hidden gem in downtown Edmonton! It's underneath The Common; it has its own entrance to…read morethe left of The Common's patio. They have some great local bands play at this intimate venue. The stage is basically floor level, with various booths around the perimeter of the "dance floor." There's a bar at the back with friendly staff. The night I went, the bands were amazing (Jesse and the Dandelions - had a death cab for cutie-ish sound, which I loved; and The Velvetines)! Also there were these three cloud light things above the stage, which everyone could not stop staring at because they were just so cool. So if anything, you must go there just to see the cloud lights!! Really fun place, can't wait to go back.

Absolutely love this venue for dance events!…read more Great floor, super spacious, and the vibe cannot be beat. The staff are very courteous and efficient. Lots of food and drink options in the menu for both bar type foods as well as things to please foodies. Location is extremely easy to get to by public transit and there are enough parking options within walking distance. Whether it is the weekly Salsa/Bachata/Kizomba dance night on Tuesdays or the Afrobeats/Amapiano flavoured dance nights on the weekends, I've really enjoyed this venue and the types of events they host. Highly recommend checking them out. Perfect for both date night ideas as well as solo/group outings.

Service was excellent, our waitress checked on us often and was really timely with the drinks. I…read moretried the corn dog, it was greasy but tasty. It was not a regular hot dog and the breading was nice. Seating was comfortable. My biggest problem with this place is that I paid to see a band and this place is split up into two rooms, one of which you can not really see the band. I did not pay to sit in a room beside the room the band was playing in.

I've been to two shows here over the years - one just before Covid and one more recently. I see…read moreother reviews talking about a $5.00 membership, but they must have gotten rid of that because I've never been asked to pay for a membership. The venue is old and full of character for sure, but it is not accessible at all if you have any kind of mobility issues. And it's a shame, because the management does seem to WANT to be inclusive, but they are terribly limited by the physical location. It's true that you walk down a dingy and dank outdoor hallway to get to the entrance, and then walk up a whole bunch of stairs to get to the ID checking station. Then you go in and get to the ticket scanning station. Maybe she was having a bad day, but the attitude from her was really off-putting. When you have a mobile ticket, apparently they can't scan the QR Code if you have your phone in dark-mode. I've never had that issue with any other venue accepting my mobile tickets, but maybe their scanner is different. Anyway, she was really annoyed with me for that. Once inside, there were 3 bars open and the bartenders were all super friendly. We went back to the same bartender each time and she always remembered our orders. As others have said, the washrooms are down a flight of stairs. If you choose to leave while there are still people lined up to get in, you will have to squeeze past them in that same dank alley/hallway thing you came in - There are no other exits (though I'm sure you could use the other doors in the event of an emergency). The slanted dance floor is not everyone's cup of tea, but I think it adds to the quirky character of the old building. I thought the sound quality from the performers were great for both shows I saw and the lighting was excellent as well.

This venue gets killer bands in. There's not much more to…read morerecommend. There's hardly any place to sit. They don't have much in the way of good beers. Bar gets very crowded with spectators leaning against it. You are not allowed to exit at East doors by stage, so this means a lot of in and out traffic at the ticket gate. People just need to learn some manners. It's $10.00 to park in the nearby lot. Bathrooms are ok.

Atmosphere was a typical pub ambiance. Really not remarkable. I liked though that the music wasn't blaring and I could have a conversation. Server was friendly and helpful. Food was quick to come out. We both loved the calamari. They were thick pieces that were well seasoned. Definately need to order this again. Broccoli was perhaps a bit underdone, but flavour was good. When the crab came out it looked a little skimpy in terms of potatoes and the other shellfish. However with the appies we were filled up well. Crab was tasty and well boiled. Potatoes were okay and the few mussels and clanms on the bottom. I would come back here for that still. All in all a good meal.

My friend and I had a wonderful experience at the Union Hall last night…read more There are outdoor heaters to keep the queued guests warm. We were greeted by at least 3 friendly staff members. I'm happy that security screening is there for our protection. Coat check available. There are 4 different bars inside the hall. All were staffed with nice workers who took time to chat with us. We were happy to see the ice being handled hygienically. There is a separate seating area for bottle service if you are a high roller. There are a few booths in the back if you really need to sit down. The ladies room was clean and stocked. It looked new. The stage is visible from everywhere. You can also go upstairs and look down upon the stage if you don't want to get trampled in the mosh pit. I the bars only take cash. There's an ATM machine at the back. The lot fills up fast, so I parked in the front of the hotel where there was lots of spots available.

Their food is 100% vegan, what you might expect to find in a diner or bar, decadent and hearty hearty hearty! If you want healthy, they do have three salad options to choose from. We went with the Buffalo Mac'n'Cheese, Poutine, Chkn Wings and ....oh my ... Deep Fried Oreos. We don't really have vegan Poutine options here in Seattle (if you know of any, please do drop a note in the comments section letting me know where) so it's always a treat going to Canada and comparing the various Poutine options as pretty much every vegan place has their own take. If you haven't been to visit yet, you owe it to yourself to try them out. If you find yourself visiting Edmonton, make a point to visit Whyte Avenue and walk up and down the strip checking out all of the store and most definitely, including The Buckingham in your visit.

My boyfriend took me here as an anniversary present and I loved every moment of it. The place is pretty high end, and it is expected that you do not talk while people are performing. It is VERY frowned upon to do so actually. It has a bar where you can grab drinks, but there is no table service. Popcorn and nuts were also available for a small charge. What makes this venue unique is the quality of musicians that pass through their doors. We went and listened to a Grammy winner and she was fabulous! There is a ticket price per show. There is also a membership price. The membership price varies from $25 to $450 depending on how much you want to save. I would recommend anyone go here at least once for the experience. Just remember: NO TALKING WHILE THE ARTISTS ARE ON STAGE!

Last night was my 3rd visit to The Yardbid Suite. I had…read moreforgotten that they they only take cash at the bar. The closest ATM is across the street at Steel Wheels. Buy your tickets online. You must come at least 30 minutes before the performance. We barely got a place to sit. We shared a guy's table after his 2 companions could not buy tickets at the box office because it was a sold out show. It seems they got the sound system fixed since my last visit. Last night was spectacular. Al Muirhead, Tommy Banks and P.J.Perry. Watch the masters go at it for a couple hours and you will be in awe. The volunteer staff does the best they can, but I feel like they are judging you. Deciding if you are worthy of attending their concert. They are a very dedicated bunch. It's been operating like this since 1957 when it used to be on Whyte Ave. . (Since 1984 in this current location). I used to have a membership, but the flyers for the concerts would always arrive by snail mail way too late and I'd always miss a show. The small savings that membership offers is not really worth it to me. Just check online when you are in the mood, and you'll find something great to see.
