There's no re-entry, and my boyfriend was hoping if we arrived early, he could find a seat up there. Instead, we had to wait for the concert to start an hour later while absolutely freezing our tushes off. It was absurdly cold. Even through the main act, the entire night was frigid. He's a bigger guy and he even said he was chilly. I purchased a long-sleeved shirt from the headliner, and that helped a bit but not enough. And yes, we were in the heart of the crowd. I've really never experienced that at a venue before, and hopefully it was just a fluke? I'd return but only if it's a band I really-really-really want to see.

I recommend the Mezzanine as you can see everyone and the entire set clearly. Wells Theatre has quite the talent! All the actors/cast performances were expressive, engaging, dynamic, powerful, and nuanced! While not overly dramatic, they were compelling and vibrant and lively without being nauseating. I loved the quick wit, and humor in A Sherlock Carol and the cast excellent! Some of the main characters in A SHerlock Carol are also in A Merry Christmas Carol as well. It's a small theatre that opened in 1913, and is a national historic landmark. It has ornate features inside and they sell light snacks and alcoholic and nonalcoholic drinks at their concession stand.

The place is small , provides an intimate space for the productions. There is a concession that has snacks and drinks. They also serve alcohol and liquor. It also allows you to place order ahead of time. The bathroom was clean and had several stalls. It is convenient located near several local shops and restaurants. Parking can be tricky. I would definitely go back.

Immediately…read moreupon entering, I was disappointed because it was open and people were playing pool and kids were present . My date encouraged that we just go in for a couple of drinks, so we did. The DJ made the night for me!!! He played blues and 90's r&b. The bartender was also really cool and I enjoyed the cocktails that I had. I'm not sure when the dj is present but I'd highly recommend a ladies night or date night here for a fun and casual date night!

When my husband and I were dating, he took me to a WXZY lounge in Durham NC on two occasions and it…read morewas a great vibe each time. So, I was hopeful that the WXYZ lounge and bar in Chesapeake would be similar and provide a great atmosphere to get together for a fun, chill hangout with our friends. We were not disappointed. There was ample seating and a large table where we were able to share a meal and play board games. The lounge has games in the lobby area, which we weren't expecting, but was nice to see. We had brought our own games. My friend ordered a mocktail and enjoyed it. The four of us ordered chicken buffalo dip and fish and chips to share. I couldn't eat the chicken buffalo dip because I have a dairy allergy, but everyone said it was good. I did really enjoy the fish and chips. The fries were hot, thick, and well seasoned. The cod was very tasty as well, the skin was perfectly crispy but the meat was tender inside. While we didn't take pictures of the menu this time, I took a look at the menu online and there are some options listed on the website that were not printed on the physical menus we saw, but for what was the same the prices matched. The fish and chips isn't on the website but was on the physical menu and was affordable (two pieces or cod and ample fries). Our server (also the bartender) was nice and provided good service. The hours that they're open make it a great hangout spot for Friday nights and weekends. The restrooms are clean. The noise level was moderate and fine. We definitely recommend for hanging out with friends and will be coming back in the future.

Pretty good happy hour!…read more I've been here numerous times before tonight but I must say it's been a long minute since I've dined here. My husbae and I decided to grab a quick meal before heading to Friday night lights. The game is minutes away so this was the perfect spot. We sat at the bar inside the actual restaurant and was greeted immediately. We ordered a pinot noir which is featured at 3.50 from 5 to 8p during happy hour and my husbae ordered his usual Crown and Sprite. Drinks...all good! We kept our meal super light... An order of cheesesteak bombs and curly fries. Everything was delish and the bartender mentioned our choice was a popular item... the cheesesteak eggrolls. While they were good I wouldn't be upset if they had just a tad bit more of seasoning. Nevertheless the happy hour menu includes a lot to choose from. One is sure to find something worth trying. Plenty of parking. Plenty of space indoors. Outdoor and indoor dining. I recommend you give them a try. Have fun and enjoy life:)

Stopped at the bar to go ahead and get a drink and some appetizers. We tried the Eggrolls (9/10) actually really good, def would've loved more than 2 egg rolls lol and Curly fries (6/10) nothing special really, wasn't expecting them to give so many either. $16 spent on the food. As far as the music and overall atmosphere, it got more fun as the night went on and more people arrived, but I think the dj in the middle area was just alright. He played some good songs and some that just had everyone standing around. It was okay. My overall rate of experience : 7/10

I simply just wasnt paying attention but I still wouldn't talk to a person who made an honest mistake like that. maybe it's not that serious but I definitely felt embarrassed and I don't think I'll be back because of this.

I go to HK too many times. The place is everything you can ask for in a bar. Cheap drinks, great food, happy hour damn near all day and the staff are always nice. They are always playing good music, going thru their slideshow on the tv with everyone up there (except me for some reason), or they got the game on and everyone is feening for a spot at the bar. When I work in downtown they are always a viable option for food and when I'm out on the weekends they are the place to go for a nice drink and maybe a pre snack before the main event of the night or the food that's gonna get me through until I get home from a great night. Also! They have daily deals! Monday they have Pizza and Wine half off, Tuesday they have margs for cheap and some tacos and quesadillas on sale, Wednesday is Steak Dinner Date night (2 for $22 bucks you can't beat that anywhere), and Thursday is the day you'll see me for burger night with $2 PBRs. Haven't been to HK yet? Then you're missing out. If you have been and didn't like it? You gotta try again something must've been wrong with you that day. If you're like me and go all the time? Then come say hi next time and shoot if you're cool I'll even say hi back! haha!

Too noisy to be technically "romantic," yet "moody" enough to provide the setting for a great "date night." If you're into surrounding yourself with a plethora of different beers, and libations, this is a perfect place for you. The beer menu is HUGE! I definitely recommend. It's my favorite chain restaurant.

Could it be great? Sure - need some updating of flooring, lighting, etc. I was here last night for the Dayshift event sponsored by Fever. It's meant to be a dance 80's/90's themed dance party. This event itself is a 4. You pay $30 (not sure if worth it compared to just go to dance clubs by the oceanfront where there's no cover charge). They give you a light up foam thing which didn't last the whole hour I was there. There were confetti sprayed every now and then, music wasn't bad. The twerking contest am not sure if I'd rate a 1 or 2. Overall I guess it's an alternative to go to if you don't have plans to watch the Admirals!

Parking is super easy nearby in one of the numerous downtown garages. No complaints from me! Charming.
