    Very good place for live shows. Great beer. Only standing. Able to seat upstairs, on the "balcony".

    Barby is a fantastic venue for all sorts of mid-level bands. Fits just about the right amount of people for music people really want to listen to allows artists to really engage with the crowd in an eye-level intimacy. Barby hosts mostly local artists but worth checking the monthly schedule for some surprisingly good acts from all over the world. The bar is reasonably priced.

    A major Israeli classic. The sound there is always decent, the space is large and never too crowded - but, and it's an important one, the venue needs an urgent renovation as there are some actual hazards there (like uneven heights of stairs). The alcohol & food front could use some updating as well.

    Rude personnel, no parking arrangements whatsoever, you can't leave the premises once you go in without giving up the right to enter again and the alcohol is overpriced even compared to Israel. Over $14 for a tiny gin&tonic? $9 for a tiny beer? Seriously?! And that's after paying $65 for the ticket.

    Despite many newer venues and it's somewhat off the grid vibe, this is the best place for live music in Tel-Aviv. If you are looking for a more intimate indoors live music experience this is the place to go

    This was my first time at the Barby. We went to a Full Trunk concert. The venue is great. Small enough to have a personal feeling but big enough for an energetic crowd. I have to say that as far as smaller venues go, the sound system was amazing. I would recommend to anyone to see Full Trunk even if you are not familiar with their music. Their loyal fans bring a high level of energy that makes the show.

    Was my first visit. Was a great show, not to crowded, air condition was working so even though it was crowded it felt nice. Alcohol was priced resonably & the concert was great. Next time i will bring ear plugs because at some point it was a bit to loud for me.

    Such an intimate and beautiful place for live shows. Feels like you’re on stage almost and so close to the artists. Sound is great, vibe is awesome, parking is easy. Perfect really

    Good and authentic music venue with nice acoustics and a very homely and intimate feeling. In addition there is good visibility from most areas. I recommend arriving early to secure the best spot because there are no seats in most of the concerts (prepare your legs 😜)

    Always crowded next to the stage, with a young, vibrant, energetic atmosphere. Amazing bands, interesting poetry slam and much more to enjoy. For those that want, there is almost always a place to sit or to stand where it's not crowded.

  • 5/5 Gad H. 10 months ago on Google
    It’s large, sound is incredible. They have 2 main bars inside and a smaller one outside. Bathroom a pretty clean and neat. Very ventilated so though you are inside it’s not stuffed and choky. Has wheelchair access.

    Overall amazing experience I ready enjoyed the concert Unfortunately they make you spill/throw away your water in the entrance.

  • 5/5 Uri A. 9 months ago on Google • 28 reviews
    A great place for rock, concerts, standing up only. Nice vibe, drinks, good sound.

  • 5/5 Elinor K. 1 year ago on Google
    Barry is the best and maybe the only good place for indoor concerts in Israel and for sure in Tel Aviv. It has a mixture of great selection of bands and performers along with high quality sound and a nice selection of alcohol. Always great people there and never too crowded. My own favorite place to catch a good show.

  • 5/5 Avishai S. 1 year ago on Google
    Great show by Jerry Cantrell, awesome atmosphere

  • 5/5 JT L. 10 months ago on Google
    was great I was never disappointed.

  • 5/5 Yoram D. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place for live music in Tel Aviv. Shows are usually sold out, so book in advance.

  • 5/5 Itai R. 1 year ago on Google • 20 reviews
    Awesome place, great artists and vibes. Good bar and good sound! Very recommend.

  • 5/5 Hillel C. 10 months ago on Google
    One of the most iconic venue in Tel Aviv. The atmosphere is unique. It’s a mix of intimacy and energy. The artist that are performing are often indie and non mainstream. I highly recommend for anyone who wants to have a different music experience than big venues. Love!

  • 5/5 Ron H. 1 year ago on Google
    Best rock venue in Tel Aviv and possibly in Israel. Check online and pre buy your tickets.

  • 5/5 liron n. 1 year ago on Google
    I love Barby. They have an amazing sound system. It's intimate yet full on! It a place to standup on your feet and dance to the songs of your favourite artists. When it comes to parking, since it is on the south side of TA you are able to find parking there with relative ease.

  • 5/5 Yoav I. 8 months ago on Google
    A must-see location in Tel Aviv. If you want to truly experience the live music scene in Israel, this is the place to be. The food selection and drinks were rather basic, but it didn't damage the experience.

  • 5/5 Maya 1 year ago on Google
    It's a rather small place, but the acoustic is great. In my opinion some of the best artists preform there.

  • 5/5 Franck M. 1 year ago on Google
    I really like this live music venue. It has the right size. You are close to the artists. There is a good acoustic, nice bar. Highly recommended!

  • 5/5 Slavik S. 1 year ago on Google
    Good sound. Solid venue for big music

  • 5/5 Yossi T. 2 years ago on Google
    The SE old great place!!

  • 4/5 Shani S. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice venue, it's a shame they don't enforce no smoking indoors. You have to walk through a wall of smoke to get inside and then there are a few law breakers inside on the upper right side of the stage that smoke and ruin the experience for everybody.

  • 5/5 Tomer Menachem Y. 2 years ago on Google
    This avenue is a great place for shows. Always sounds good. Great beers. Great atmosphere. For the high Balcony location (which is highly recommended) you'll have to arrive early. It's worth it.

  • 5/5 Ron L. 2 years ago on Google
    The best live music hall in Israel.

  • 5/5 Alon E. 3 years ago on Google
    Fantastic being able to have lice music performances again. The Barby is THE PLACE

  • 5/5 Maria V. 2 years ago on Google
    Legendary rock club and bar, exceptional bands performing. The place itself doesn’t look like much but that’s part of the show 😆

  • 1/5 Naomie L. 2 years ago on Google
    I called to cancel tickets or find a solution to change tickets because of corona - the person was short, not helpful, not polite and very rude. NOT RECOMMENDED AT ALL

  • 5/5 Lihi S. 2 years ago on Google
    Cool vibes for a concert

  • 4/5 Gregory G. 6 years ago on Google
    One of the favorite places to see alternative shows. Barbie host all kind of events, from jazz to hip hop, metal and pop artists. There are two bars, one inside and smaller one outside. The drink selection is wide but nothing special. Sounds is good, atmosphere also. Great place and great people, but it mainly depends on the venue. Also big up for nice crew and security.

  • 3/5 Victor R. 2 years ago on Google
    The place needs a bit of a touch up (one of the lamps in the chandelier had been burned months ago; the ventilation pipe near the ceiling has scary amounts of dusts on top). 99% of the crowd and the stuff don't wear masks inside.

  • 5/5 Adam P. 2 years ago on Google
    One of the best live music venues in Tel Aviv, great sound and atmosphere - host of many Israeli contemporary musicians, singers and bands of rock, pop, indie and more... From classic to fresh artists, most concerts are planned for standing audience

😐 The place is nice, but alot of people smoking inside, grass, electronic cigarettes, regular cigarettes and nobody cares, i had headache and couldn't enjoy the show. I'm almost passed out. The place need to be more strict.

👍👍 We have been going through a rather trying time over the past week and decided to take a day off to recharge and relax.
