Henke & Pillot Concerts 2024

I first went to The Poetry Lounge in Henke & Pillot on 06.18.2023, and I had a fantastic time. The spoken word delivered by each artist was captivating. From beginning to end, the atmosphere was inviting. Every artist was given the utmost respect and was encouraged if they happened to stumble. I was so pleased as a spectator that I decided to step out of my comfort zone and step up to the mic. The experience was the key to opening a new door for me. I've written for years, but I had never shared on a stage before. I felt welcomed and received; I feel like I can step up to a mic again simply because of the atmosphere. Every artist was greeted with the same love! The Poetry Lounge is a great place to go if you’re a lover of word artistry, love, laughs, life, or having a good time; you'll get it all. You will leave feeling full.

Me and my husband came here last Sunday and it was amazing! Great poets, food EXCEEDED my expectations. We shared a fish plate with fries and two nice size jalapeños. Somebody in the kitchen know what they doing! Our drinks were tequila sunrise and Long Island iced tea. They weren’t stingy with the liquor although I’ve had better drinks. They were still good. The atmosphere was inclusive it didn’t feel weird you can tell the whole atmosphere was a laid back vibe. What topped it off for us was the live DJ. He was lit! The audience was lit too it was a whole vibe! The age range of people there were a mix of middle age and above and the people that were late 20’s you can tell we’re mature and in the “grown and sexy” class! I enjoyed this place. We going back this Sunday! Also, if you plan on eating I would pay a bit extra for a table because general admissions you would have to eat in your lap or at the bar. Get there earlier before the show to get seats that you would like. We sat on side and I would have preferred being more towards center. Host was fun and engaging.

Bar downstairs doesn't work the entire bar. Just one side. Long waits on drinks or none at all sometimes. Food service is ok for the amount of food being ordered during the show. Host and poets are great.

I have only come here on Sundays for Poetry Lounge. I absolutely love it. It is perfect for a date night, girls night, or even family night for adults. They have decent drinks, but the event itself is so entertaining and fun. I have only personally gone to the 7pm shows about 3 times, but they do have a 2pm brunch show as well.

Seven is such a cool dude. Poetry lounge sundays from 6-10:30pm is off the chain. Tell them MsPinkTheEnigma sent you.
