Jake D. • April 21, 2017Really awesome theatre with great food and comfortable seating - nothing gimmicky, just good film and good.

Adi D. • May 18, 2019Amazing sound system, beautiful architecture, and tasteful programming. Drinks are a little pricey but it’s worth making the trip outside of BK’s usual locus of club music to visit this place.

Alex B. • October 8, 2018An intimate, modern space with impeccable acoustics. The staff was friendly and the space was clean. They manage ticket sales so the crowd doesn’t get too big. My new favorite venue.

Sarah F. P. • October 17, 2013Wonderful arts center with great ball room for concerts or theater and art gallery in the lobby! Also Hungry Ghost Coffee shop with delicious Croissants and strong coffee

Joe M. • November 3, 2018The acoustics here are amazing! The venue hold only 1,800 people so it’s a great place to see a concert with a more intimate feel.

Razorfish • September 20, 2011The theater inside is a great blend of old and new. It is absolutely a work of art unto itself and a must-see for any NYC theater lover.

Brownstone Living NYC • July 4, 2016Great performance space. Awesome for private events and functions.

Ellen M. • December 30, 2011Kids! Super child-friendly, so must you be :)

Elizabeth B. • October 28, 2018Super fun spot!! Incredible halloween costumes. Music is hit or miss

Ashley A. • August 5, 2017This place is the best! $10/person allows you to try out and play an insane assortment of games while drinking a beer and having a snack. I've purchased many a game here to continue playing at home.

Omar H. • November 3, 2013Coolest opera house I've been to. In general shows at BAM are half the price and twice as good as most things in manhattan. Get more BAM for your buck

Nikki M M. • July 28, 2013This was such a great, beautiful venue to see a show (especially Robert Plant!)! So easy to get to, too.

John W. • March 27, 2016Roomier space, with fine views of the city.

Paddy • November 26, 2013Good venue with decent bar areas and selection of beer. Very good sound quality and views from most parts of the venue.

Todd F. • March 10, 2010You can find out a neat fact about our history by looking at the interior doorknobs which are original to Brooklyn Historical Society's 1881 building.

Blake L. • January 8, 2018Definitely not just a Burlesque show. The group is incredibly talented and entertaining. They also serve a nice selection of wines & cocktails. I went for my favorite hard cider, Austin’s.

Vecoistas • September 27, 2011Wonderful French woman owns this Studio and Gallery! With shows on the weekend it's a great place to buy one of a kind ceramics and get a glass of rose!

Vivaluz A. • November 15, 2015There's free wifi,and the performances are very beautiful and really empowering to watch.

Miguel G. • September 21, 2018If you’re looking for an authentic, atmospheric folk-and-country joint, this Red Hook honky-tonk is the real deal.

Mark R. • December 17, 2017Love this place. A new venue that feels authentic and artsy yet unpretentious. Been here twice, and both times it was a blast. Sick space with a killer sound system.

Vedrana P. • September 20, 2018So much cool art and loads of nice bars, cafes and restaurants in the area!

Edwina M. • October 9, 2021Great cocktails, fun decor and vibes.

Christina C. • August 21gorgeous venue, mostly for standing room only events. sloping floor makes great for view in the back. there's a balcony & lounge. close to trains makes it 100% better than T5 (it's equiv space)

Harry C. • March 2, 2013Amazing displays. A must see even if you are not into Bonsai just see the time and effort the growers put into growing their Bonsai.
