    Stayed at the hotel across the street for work, dropped in a few nights for dinner and drinks. We were pleasantly surprised by the live music on Friday night, they were very good! Burgers were fantastic, good grilled cheese and quesadillas as well, salads were not bad! Great beer selection, and the cheap American beers are actually cheap!

    Went to midget wrestling last night. Show was running late by an hour. Went to get food and drinks, was told menu limited. Server,who was really nice, told us sorry menu she gave us wasnt right. No pizza tonight. Ok we made an order for wings only for her to come back and say sorry kitchen is closed. But theres a mcdonalds and jimmy johns near by. So, we had to go get food then wait an hour for a show that was supposed to start at 8. We paid for "VIP" for the midget wrestling which in the AD said we can get in hour early, have our own micro server, and get photos with cast during the one hour early access. None.of.that.happened. We paid 80 bucks a person to get in at the same time as everyone else, and sit in a corner. No server micro or not came by us. The show was long and drawn out. It was a complete rip off from walking in door. Hour delay was so that "wrestlers can get ready" which in reality seemed like a ploy to sell more beer and liquor in the venue. First match was normal sized wrestlers then talking and talking. It was a complete train wreck. Hard pass to ever coming back here for a show or anything. Shout out to the server who said she found out she was preggo yesterday. Yep, she told us that. Good luck.

    Good food, great selection of beers and awesome live entertainment. This place has two stages, game room, slot machines, section with pool tables and outside seating. I really liked the atmosphere at this place, I just can't believe it took me so long to finally come here. Now that I know that they have two stages with live entertainment I'm going to come here more often.

    Great venue for a concert! Parking is decent, location is easy to get to and so much fun. Be prepared for concert pricing on drinks! Pre-game for sure.

    I went to the Thursday cruise night. Only about 60 cars showed up with a few more trickling in and out. A DJ played oldies music. Didn't go in the restaurant, but there was a lot of people there. Hopefully next time there will be more cars. Still a fun place to check out.

    Brauer House is a biker bar with great food (especially the jalapeno poppers, tater tots, and any burger with chips). The bartenders are usually pretty hot, plus they have a game room in the back with a pool table and at least 4-5 pinball tables. Vibes are edgy punk rock, which can be a good thing or bad thing depending on how you feel about that kind of stuff.

  • 2/5 Jose G. 2 years ago on Google
    A stale tortilla filled with dry chicken was like eating a plastic wrapped cardboard. Thank god that I paid the extra 33 cents per toping to add the cilantro, tomatoes and jalapeños to add some taste. Although the jalapeños were mostly MIA. Maybe the burgers are good.... I hope so. Service was not good. Only reason why gave 2 stars was the beer selection was ok. Otherwise stay away.

    We love this place. We found out about it through our hearse club who hosts their big annual hearse show here every year. I love the psychobilly atmosphere and great food so much I insisted my husband take me there for lunch on my birthday. Where else can you have a zombie burger next to a Rat Fink painting, have great drinks, play an Elvira pin ball machine and attend an oddities show! It feels like home away from home.

    Live shows at the Bauer House are a great way to see popular bands, while enjoying food and drinks with friends. The Bauer House has a Facebook page. It seems to be the place to find out all the details on what bands are playing at this venue. There are also open mic nights and other special events.

    Went to a Friday night show of metal! Bands were amazing. We reserved a table in the venue, service in the venue was spot on. Our server never missed a beat checking on us, making sure we had everything we needed. Beers never ran out at our table. She made sure everyone was taken care of. Awesome job guys! Can't wait for future shows, since it's not that far from home. Check them out!🤘🤘🤘

    I've been there multiple times. Then last weekend I went there on Saturday night and couldn't believe the pice of one beer and one drink. The drink was vodka not any call vodka or top shelf, just cheap vodka. I was charged $22.00 then add your tip I was shocked 😳 The music is always good people are friendly I like it.

    Great front bar with good burgers and tasty menu. Try to check out the Live music nights. Owner has always supported live music, " which is super cool" Many free shows just check website . Lots of parking. Right off 355 , easy to get to !!!

    I actually went here for a birthday party. The event venue was just right. Good seating, good bar areas, stage, and great sound system. I'll go again.

    I go here every Monday Night for Punk & Metal Bingo presented by Rebel Radio, They have excellent servers who feel more like good friends as opposed to just servers or employees. Haven't tried the food, but heard it's good. They have half off on Burgers on Monday and their burgers are all double patties. They also set the pool tables to free play on Mondays - Thursdays. Also acts as a music venue where they often have live bands playing, sometimes 2 shows, one in the smaller front dining area and another in a bigger room in the back. Both areas have a bar, a stage and dining tables but have only seen the inside of the back room but it looks nice. Love this place & will continue coming every Monday Night and attend shows that interest me. It's worth the 45-60 minute drive in my opinion.

    Crazy night. Bike night was amazing. Man what a missed opportunity with all the people in the parking lot. Need to do something to sell beer in the parking lot and food on these night. The permit would be worth it

    This place did not follow covid protocols AT ALL. Staff wasn't masked and neither were most of the patrons. I saw maybe 6 people wearing them. My bf and I kept ours on the entire show. I am really glad that we were both vaxxed. I won't be going there again no matter who's playing.

    Good food, a bit loud but again I am old.

  • 5/5 Robert J. 2 years ago on Google
    I just happened upon this place and I am so glad that I did. Maybe the best happy hour I have ever been to. I liked it so much I actually went here 4 days in one week for dinner each day. Looking forward to frequenting with family and friends. The burgers were incredible, meatloaf Wednesday was phenomenal.

    We went to see Whitey Morgan and got a quick bite to eat before the shows.. Wow the artists were great Myron Elkins and Whitey Morgan... and wow have never been in the large back stage and bar room.. awesome and totally perfect for this venue. We will watch for more upcoming shows.

  • 3/5 Ricardo S. 9 months ago on Google
    Nice atmosphere. Went for lunch so almost no one was there, but have driven past at night and it seems to be busy. The food was just OK. It's not terrible and reasonable for the price. The chili is overpriced and no crackers/bread given on the side. The one food item which was very good though...the BH fries! They are well seasoned but not crunchy, so more like soft potatoes with delicious seasoning, but I still found them very good! While I do not plan to return, the place seems good for the alcoholic beverage folks.

  • 5/5 Monica S. 2 years ago on Google
    Excellent entertainment venue! Food was surprisingly good. Bartenders and staff were friendly and "on the ball" filling our drinks quickly and with a smile.

  • 5/5 Paula R. 10 months ago on Google
    Great place to see live music! Food was delicious and reasonably priced. Bartenders and waitresses were great. Only con- bathrooms were filthy beginning of the night. I'm guessing it wasn't cleaned up the night before and checked the next day before the show. Mentioned it and they cleaned it up eventually. Just grossed me out.

  • 5/5 John D. 1 year ago on Google
    Seen a 3 day Metal Fest here. The prices of food and drinks were very fare. Staff were awesome and friendly. The music hall was perfect for style of show and sound quality was easy 9.5 to 10. The neighborhood seemed nice and from what I seen low crime. I would definitely return for a show or just to grab a drink. We need more clubs throughout the country like this one.

  • 5/5 Sams J. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the coolest bars/venue I've ever been to. Edm on one side and metal band on the other... both were GETTIN IT!! Bartenders were on their game too, was busy but never had to wait for drinks. 10/10 recommend for a friend.

  • 5/5 Uriel O. 11 months ago on Google
    My favorite lunch spot in the area. Anna provides great service. Drinks are always cold, food is always great. Especially recommend the authentic smoked wings with the sauce on the side. Thank me later.

  • 3/5 Toni B. 1 year ago on Google
    First timer here ... visited last night for a show in the back of the bar. The place has a bit of dive bar feel, nothing glitzy, but reasonably clean. I ordered a burger. The burger was dry and the fries were semi cold. My friends wanted a Manhatten, but no vermouth. They offered an old fashioned, but it would be made with a Sugar cube. For a bar, the alcohol selection was limited. Still managed to have a good time.

    Drinks are ok, no menu .waitress was attentive, venue provides a more intimate and close ambiance for cudtomers. 2 stages the larger one In the back and small one near the front bar.. prices are awesome for a great experience with music

  • 5/5 Rachel M. 1 year ago on Google
    If you're looking for a decent dive bar in a pretty good neighborhood, this is the place! Live music, good food, fun people, and great service, what more can you ask for?! This place used to be super tiny, but they've expanded and it's gorgeous. Grab your friends and check this place out. You won't be disappointed! Not our first time visiting and definitely won't be our last! See you all next time!
