Legendary venue - I was fortunate to see the talented Ollie Wride live in concert. Multiple bars, several different levels of viewing (standing and seating), and friendly staff and security made for a great evening. The history in this place is overwhelming.

Had an amazing time last night! I bought the tickets in advance which was an easy process. I do recommend using the website to buy tickets. We went to see The Unlikely Candidates and Franklin Jonas. Had drinks and food which were all great. Savannah is an awesome bartender and took great care of us. I had margarita, Paloma, and Tequila sunrise and my date had a Paloma and a Long Island. They were all well made and she checked on us multiple times throughout the whole night. The staff was very kind and professional. Can't wait to go back and visit!

Beyond its iconic historic status, this is a cozy music venue where there are very few bad locations from which to stand or sit to see and hear your favorite artists. You will NOT be disappointed. Seems "ye old timers" get there early and find seats on the far side of the bar. There is also bench seating up in the balcony area. Do not waste your time standing in a open field or arena simply to watch your favorite artists on a giant screen over loud, distorted acoustics. Where New York City simply watched its venues like CBGB and the Roxy evaporate, the Troubadour lives on! Come enjoy this hub of music while one can.

This place is a cool venue! It's small so it feels more intimate, yet breathable. I went to a sold out show and there was still room to jump around and it didn't feel overly crowded. There is an upstairs with seating. Honestly, good views from every angle! And the merch is cool!

Great venue. Limited seating so come early if you need it. The sound system is very loud and the speakers are very close to the audience so make sure to bring ear protection!

Disappointing. After learning of its existence in "Rocketman," my wife was adamant that we visit this iconic rock n roll location. The people working the front were condescending and acted like they couldn't be bothered. The bartender in the front was more interested in flirting with female clients than taking orders for drinks or explaining options. There is a red-head bartender in the back where the artists perform that has the customer-service skills of an angry rattlesnake. Wait. Rattlesnakes are nicer than her. My apologies to the rattlesnakes of the world. I asked for ice water. She replies, "I only have bottled water." I said, "Okay, can I have 2 cups of ice with my bottled water?" She titled her head and said, "Sure!" (annoyed) while looking my up and down then slammed the cups of ice and the water bottles in front of me. She then proceeded to act like a jerk and throw stuff away before being finished for all the customers on our side of the bar. The only decent people were in the kitchen, and the acting manager Rachelle. The food was average and a bit expensive. The drinks were expensive, too. That on top of the $50.00 to get in put us at about $140.00 in a bar that's a little bit more than a hole in the wall with artists that are literally unknown, to get treated badly by the majority of the staff really soured the experience. If you ask me, the whole staff needs to get customer service training and understand if people don't come, they lose their jobs. It's almost like they think they are the rockstars and not the employees. Maybe Jon Taffer needs to step in? The only reason the place is still open is because of its legendary rock history. It's nice that new artists have a venue to show their skills, but you'll have a better experience watching the scene at the Troubadour in the movie Rocketman.

My first visit to the Troubadour to catch Lauren Mayberry’s solo performance (Chrvches vocalist) has made me fond of this venue. The venue is small and the perfect size to catch your favorite artists perform up close and personal. Venue is standing room only on the first floor. Second floor has limited seating. Get there early if you want to secure a nice comfortable seat for the duration of the show. Me and my friends opted for the second floor but stood because we got there late and there were no seats left. In my opinion, the second floor has a better view of the stage to catch the performance without being cramped on the main floor like sardines (especially on sold out performance nights). Our spot was perfect. Good quality sounds regardless of being on the first or second floor. Easy access to the bars on both floors. Will definitely be returning to the Troubader in the future.

Absolutely legendary Los Angeles concert venue, serving up an intimate atmosphere, and attracting some of the biggest talent in the world. The sound system here is flawless perfection. The drinks are strong, and the staff is highly experienced, making this one of my favorite places to see a show.
