    A fun little spot to catch a show (comedy, music). Diverse drink selection with friendly staff. There’s a bar at the front and rear of the place with the main stage nestled in between - which is a decent size with an upstairs lounge/seating area. No food options at the spot but there are several restaurants next door/nearby to get a bite. They’ve got a slate of upcoming shows that look pretty good and I’ve got a few circled on the calendar. There’s ample parking across the street too. I was there for a comedy show so I can’t wait to hear some live music at the place.

    Our 80’s tribute band, The 1985, had a absolutely FANTASTIC experience at The Vixen! And so did all our fans! A great place for LIVE music with professional sound, lighting and video. We can’t wait to come back!

    Went for the Dive Bar Dreamer Tour. Great concert and staff was very accommodating for my handicap mother, even went and got her an umbrella to walk out during the storm. All of the staff was pleasant and very helpful. Lots of photo ops and very clean. I just wish there would have been more direction when it came to the meet and greet aspect. (Which I'm not saying was the staffs issue)

    I’ve been to Vixen many times. What a terrific venue! Very hospitable, great sound, great stage and plenty of room for dancing! Saw In The Flesh last night for about the 12th time and this was the best space for them, and their light show, that I’ve ever seen them in. Keep up the good work Vixen, you’ve got the vibe of legendary! See you next weekend!

    Absolutely great place to see local bands. Hillbilly rockstars and whiskey devil's both sounded great

    Seems like a cool venue. Security could definitely be better. There was a pop punk cover bands show and they made sure this group of guys kept their shirts on and made them get off each other's shoulder, but didn't do a thing about the group of people vaping right in front of them or the girl literally dealing drugs right by the stage. Security needs to work on their priorities and do better. Sound levels could have been better too. Lead singers mic was cranked way too high and all the backup and harmony could barely be heard. Would go again for the right show.

    The venue was set up way too tight. Absolutely zero leg room, and the entire row had to move completely out if someone needed to get out. People behind us had full conversations during the concert. Security did nothing but stand in the back and socialize.

    First time there. Nice venue, very clean, all workers were nice. Good sound, look forward to going to future shows.

👍👍 Family owned and operated. The food is homemade and delicious. I love the dollar tacos on Monday because it is a quick bite to eat when I'm in a rush and the tacos are stuffed. Main Street Station is named such because it is located at the Journey train station. Grab your kids and swing by for good...

👍 Such a beautiful venue for a wedding! They were accommodating to change my niece's outdoor wedding to an indoor one when the weather didn't pan out. With all the windows in the room, we still got to enjoy the beautiful view!! Subtracting one star only because there were a lot of communication iss...
