    On the website they stated to bring a vaccine card or a negative covid test. They knowingly sold tickets to unvaccinated people under a false pretense that you can bring a negative covid test and they will turn you around at the door with a no refund policy. Don't spend your money.

    This has become one of my favorite concert venues. Now that it’s been renovated, it feels spacious and I have felt incredibly safe during the past two concerts here — one I watched from the balcony (some security guys say you can’t go up there but it’s clearly not true especially when it gets full of fans) and the front row against the barrier. Security is efficient and the line moves quickly. Floors are sticky as always, but the new bathrooms are much better. Unfortunately, you can still expect to pay $15 for a big $6 can of hard cider like at any concert venue. Fortunately, the tickets are usually such a good deal it doesn’t matter.

    I absolutely love this venue. I've seen multiple artists here. Always great artists at this place. The layout was really cool. It's a good looking, beautiful place and a cool part of town. Almost not a bad view in the house . It's a pretty good size venue but keep in mind it's small ;. Sound quality is excellent. I will keep going back and coming back.

    Haven't been in decades. I use to go with friends when it was the go- to place in NYC. So now I got to take my husband and hand him experience an icon of a club. It was great to be in there again.

    First concert here, it is your average small/medium size venue/concert hall we got to see Roosevelt, it sounded amazing, whether is the on site sound engineer that truly knows his stuff of the one that they brought. Good acoustics and not hard to get to.

    The staff were amazing, efficient, friendly, and organized (except for the mass exodus when the concert was over, when directions were a bit unclear, but I think signage would help with that) Our event was a Kpop concert, so the stage was just big enough to accommodate the group and their backup dancers, and the lights and sound were great. But the stage was a bit too low to clearly see all of the choreography past the heads of the people in front of us during a standing room only event. It's a small space, not surprising since it is a concert hall wedged into the East Village, but they managed it well and there seemed to be good access for folks with disabilities. The lineup outside waiting to get into the building was well managed but ended up wrapping almost entirely around the block, which put us somewhat in the way of NYU students and other pedestrians just making their way downtown. People were pretty chill, and some of them asked what we were in line for, but it did feel like we were a bit in the way. Again, just an unavoidable consequence of the tight quarters of the 11th street block. Overall a great experience, even though standing room is not the most comfortable for an entire show. It would have been nice if the venue's website had indicated it was SRO so we would know what to expect ahead of time. All I could find was information about the capacity for SRO versus seated, but nothing that specified which it would be for this particular event. The restoration is beautiful, and the giant disco ball was a good time :) The balcony was used only for a small number of attendees, and I couldn't tell if that was a separate ticket purchase or an accommodation for folks with conditions that prevent them from standing in a large crowd.

    Such an incredible experience in this amazing space on New Year's Eve for the Flying Lotus show! The space is much larger than I imagined it would be from the outside. Each floor is a vibe! The staff are great, drinks are good. Looking forward to another concert here.

    Nice venue, went for a couple of concerts. However, I felt that last concert (Britney Howard) the PA system was a little bit off. But, nothing more to complain. The bars are well located across the venue.

    Very nice, small, and intimate setting for live bands. I would prefer if there were a limit with alcohol purchase. I had to stand on a sticky floor due to people carelessly spilling drinks.

    Wonderful experience for Bresh , great music and people ! Will go again for future events. 🤩😁🪩 Can be very crowded but not to high on the drink prices. Staff was friendly. Quick entry. Metal detector for the event as well.

    Something about the structure of the venue seems dingy. It might be the old wooden vibe. It's a good venue that can accommodate a medium sized crowd. The lighting and sound quality is good....not terrible but not spectacular. I do like the disco ball effect. It's a nice touch that makes certain performances more ethereal. I noticed that it was difficult to find a bathroom. Not sure if it was a me thing or if they did some remodeling and removed some bathrooms. Pictures and video are of the amazing Patrick Droney and Cecilia Castleman. Cheers!

    Much smaller than I thought it would be but excellent place to watch a show. Acoustics and sound quality were spot-on. Several bars make it easy to get drinks. Pricey, even for the area. Can't wait to come back and check out another show there ...

    Had a great concert experience here! The staff was nice and helpful and the line to enter moved quickly. My one qualm was with the $5 fee to use coat check, which I’ve never experienced before at a venue.

    This is one of NYC’s most well-known concert venues for a reason! For it’s size, it’s wonderfully intimate. They always have an awesome roster of performances on the calendar. Drinks are overpriced, but that shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone.

    Went to see Cordae a few weeks ago. Was amazing show his stage presence was top notch. I have not been to Webster hall in a long long time. The changes are insane. Everything is much larger. Only complaint I have is security cutting off a whole hallway 1/2 through the show.

    Fairly small and intimate venue by NYC standards. I saw the Murder City Devils here in 2015 and Twin Temples in 2024.

  • 2/5 D B. 5 months ago on Google • 15 reviews
    The building is very interesting. A great place to see a show. It gets crowded and close. Upstairs is a good place to be if you can get there early. Good sight lines and sound. Plenty of bars. Bartenders are a mixed bunch Be careful and stay alert.

    Saw Nick Hakim here - huge venue but still retains the intimacy of most great concerts. Cool to be in a historic venue like this. The staff were easy to deal with. Drinks were pricy but so is every venue so that’s just life. I like the lounge couches by the bar - makes it a great place to chill before the show.

    I have had such a good time with my friends from 1995 to 1997... This was the place to go and dance all night...remember this long line just to get in... 3 dance floors ... my fav was the one in the basement.. I will never forget this place... I was 22 at that time... just arriving from France. Love ❤️ NYC

    I’ve been to this venue a couple of times, this past weekend I saw Keke Palmer in concert. It’s a decent size, and it has 2 levels. If you’re in the standing area you might want to be towards the front, otherwise I suggest buying tickets for the 2nd level (balcony). It was fairly easy to get in, security is fast and efficient. One thing I don’t like is how the floor bounces in the general admission section depending how pumped the crowd is.

    Iconic live music venue close to Union Square 14th Street. 5 minute walk from the 4 and 5 trains. Friendly staff, great sound system. Even though I was standing at the back of the venue, I had a good view of the stage because the floor near the stage is lowered and thus, no tall people blocking my view.

    Came to see Twin Temple on February 29th. Webster Hall was easy to find and navigate. Restrooms were very clean as well as the entire place and loved how they had multiple bars around which helps avoiding to go far to get a drink. Felt safe with the security and the entire time during my visit. Looking forward for more shows here, I liked the vibe of the place and how close it is to everything.

    Webster hall is legendary. I love to come here for shows and this venue has a special place in my heart for dubstep events. Like any venue when it really sells out it can be a bit crowded. But you can really enjoy the show from anywhere, and getting a drink is never a problem. Lately, if I had to provide one negative it would be that somehow the acoustics can make the sound in the back a bit weak and the sound of the crowd can over take the show a bit. If they could somehow boost the sound in the back a tiny bit I wouldn't have anything else to say.

    Went in for a Tinariwen concert here and hands down one of the best concerts I've been to in a long time. The venue is on the smaller to medium size but still a nice place. Bar is located on the 1st as the concert floor is located on the 2nd with a balcony surrounding the main floor on the 3rd.

  • 4/5 Stefanie T. 2 years ago on Google
    Besides the fact that I almost lost a shoe with how sticky the floor always is...this place brings back great memories.

  • 5/5 Ivanna F. 2 years ago on Google
    Awesome concert experience! 🖤. Would recommend 💯

  • 5/5 Kat W. 2 months ago on Google • 13 reviews New
    We've attended numerous concerts here. Staff is friendly and helpful, sound and lighting are incredible and the vibe is always awesome. One of the best places to catch live music.

  • 4/5 James K. 2 years ago on Google
    So many beloved memories up and down these halls. From the studio to all the insanity above.

  • 5/5 David L. 1 month ago on Google • 13 reviews New
    Great concert venue in the heart of NYC.

  • 5/5 Christopher J. 2 years ago on Google
    On the bigger end of venues that I like to frequent, but sounds great and maintains enough intimacy to still feel like a smallish show. Classic old architecture, professional and chill staff. Fun location to go to a show in lower Manhattan.

  • 5/5 ZAC Z. 2 years ago on Google
    Always has been a great venue and is still amazing after being renovated although I do miss it having three stage

  • 5/5 mark f. 2 years ago on Google
    TREATS. AMAZING. Could've been louder. 🤩

  • 5/5 Christopher P. 2 years ago on Google
    The sound is so much better here since the redesign. Drinks are expensive but where in this town aren't they expensive? We had a wonderful time seeing Waxahatchee here and will definitely be back for more shows.

  • 4/5 Andrea L. 2 years ago on Google
    I was surprised that they didnt change the o interior that much since the closure. Still good! 👑

  • 1/5 Tim S. 2 years ago on Google
    Shannon and the Clams last night- sadly the sound was absolutely horrible. So much echoing on her mike It was painful to stay until the end. I hope it was their sound guy not the venue ...Webster Hall is usually a great venue. Watch out for Covid price surge on alcohol, mixed drinks at $18.50...

  • 5/5 Hunter B. 2 years ago on Google
    My girlfriend is disabled and the staff were literally angels in assisting us, Danny in particular made it a point to get us to the ADA seating.

  • 4/5 Bogdana S. 1 year ago on Google
    Fist time I was at this place like 15 years ago. They we’re closed for some time and yesterday I was first time after reopening. Honestly I expected it to be decently renovated, but not. A lot of stuff should be fix but concert was pretty good, and stage isn’t bad. You can do better Webster Hall! And $5 coat check is overpriced

  • 5/5 Juan M. M. 2 years ago on Google
    Grear venue, there's a theatrical feel in it as you enter the Ballroom it's to me something special. And of course when you listen to your favorite bands playing live it's even better. Great experience overall.

  • 1/5 Rashmi N. 2 years ago on Google
    I travelled all the way from Costa Rica to watch Bahamas live. The policies outlined for the venue are confusing. I had the first dose of my vaccine in august and I'm scheduled to get my second dose in november.The policies say you can get in with a negative covid test. I Carried my vaccination card with the first dose and a covid test, but I thought the staff was extremely rude and incompetent. I'm pro vaccine and pro Rules, but if the venue is incapable of communicating the rules clearly and handling customer queries, they should not be hosting events! I didn't ask for a refund cos I want to support artists and music platforms in general. But this experience has made me question a lot of things and makes me feel unsettled.

    Webster Hall was jumping!!! The concert was great I'm sorry I didn't get the opening act name, but I did capture photos, Tiffany Day is a little fire cracker with a story to tell, And Blu DeTiger 💙 shut the place down.

  • 5/5 Lianne B. 1 year ago on Google
    I love seeing shows here! This venue is on the smaller side so you’re able to get a great view.

  • 5/5 Quiet Does M. 2 years ago on Google
    Great venue. Security was good. Thats the most important part. I saw Black Midi there

  • 5/5 BES 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing venue, have been coming here for year. Seen many amazing artists here and 100% plan to come back in the future

  • 5/5 Adam H. 2 years ago on Google
    Very chill atmosphere, staff are pretty nice. Only downside is bathrooms are seating are upstairs and so its not handicapped accessible. Besides that, its good

  • 5/5 Sara S. 2 years ago on Google
    The sound quality at the Andy shauf show I attended was out of this world. 1000% amazing. Props to the sound guy! I really like the spaciousness of this venue. Easy to get drinks, small enough to always have a good spot to see the stage. Can’t wait to come back, I loved this spot a lot.
