Great small place for live shows and music. Good service and nice intimate venue with seating and standing area. No parking lot however so must utilize street parking.

Pros: Great vibe, super cozy atmosphere, small venue means you get to see artists up close. Ticket system is well organized, super straightforward. Cons: They plopped the bar down right in the sweet spot of the speakers lol. It's a pity cause it has the potential to sound great, but the placement of the bar splits the crowd and means there's nowhere you can stand to hear a stereo mix. If you're lucky, you get one speaker plus 10% of the second. Also, other reviews weren't kidding—it's LOUD. I had earplugs in and it was still uncomfortably loud, to the point I was worried about hearing damage THROUGH earplugs. Final thoughts: Overall, solid experience at a venue that has its own character. It's a shame it's let down by its sound because it has all the hallmarks of a fantastic venue. (band in video is Tanlines)

Great venue, saw “Trigger Discipline” and “Rosegarden Funeral Party” and was perfect atmosphere for the bands. Trigger Discipline really blew me away with their original sound, lighting, and performance. Venue is small so can easily see stage from tables and some of the bar. Good beer selection and easy parking. Friendly unpretentious vibe. Glad I went!

If you want to see a band in a really intimate space, Soda Bar stands out. I saw Sparta here in 2022 & it was one of the best shows I've ever seen. Granted, Sparta is an amazing band, but seeing them in such an intimate venue was life changing! We were able to get up close to the stage. Me & my dad went together & since we are both guitar gear nerds, it was great to see Jim Ward's kit up close. (Nice pedal board Jim, but that Custom Esquire is a thing of beauty!) The primary downside is sometimes, they double book events so we had to leave almost as soon as the band left the stage so the staff could prepare for some weird late night dj dance thing. Other than that, an overall great experience. Great place to see shows!

My favorite place to watch live music! The bartenders are great! Shout out to Dave🙌 Also the door guys! Always great service from everyone. Bar service on one side, good room but still intimate. Two bathrooms and they have comfy booths and a few tables on either side. All the bands here I’ve seen have all been epically good. I also go here once a month for death Cab for karaoke, live band Karaoke for a smashing good time!
