What a great venue. Nice stage, great sound, and spacious without being too huge. Would def play here again, or hit up shows here when Im in Baltimore.

Great staff. Great drink menu and beer selection. Bartenders are always crafting up unique drinks Has become more of a show space than an art gallery but they book decent bands.Problem is the area where the bands play is narrow and if you are off to the side - sight and sound is terribleAlso - the lights and the drapes behind the stage are terrible.

Loved the Octane concert with Like A Storm, Royal Tusk, and Afterlife. They sounded good and the drinks were good. Had a great time!

This is a cool bar/music venue. Ive only been there twice, both times to see bands. The stage is located to your left as soon as you walk in the door with the bar in front of you. They have a good selection of craft beers, but maybe a little on the pricey side. I really enjoy the smaller music venues and the close up experience of seeing live music so I would definitely go back to Metro Gallery.

Great spot for a gig. A+ staff, intimate and loud. Good selection at the bar. Bathrooms were hazardous.

Friendly bartenders, great intimate space for bands anywhere from local favorites to big names. Drink prices are a little high, but that’s pretty much all venues these days.

Hip underground music and art joint. Craft cocktails and local brews. They host a variaty of acts, from Indy pop to black metal and in between. As well as art showcases and theater. Keep in mind, its a small venue and they dont have their own parking, but you may use the Charles Theater lot and garage which is only 10$ provided spaces are available.

Metro Gallery is a small venue in the station north arts district. Easily accessible via Amtrak, MARC and other forms of mass transit, is location is ideal for the strange assortment of acts it attracts. Everything from adult puppet shows to undergoing punk acts.Metro Gallery is also an art space, with a changing collection on the wall.Good team of bar tennlders.

Good venue, really cool part of downtown. The only real downside is the layout. If the bar was closer to the entrance it would allow for more standing room to see the stage. As it sits now there are large structural columns blocking half the standing area for the venue.

I saw Haint Blue here last night and really enjoyed it! Quick service despite the crowd, nice vibe. Unfortunately I started to have a panic attack, and in order to escape the crowd I slipped behind an Employees Only door.(I wouldn’t usually do this, nor do I encourage it) A staff member named Ray brought me water and just stayed until I could breathe normally. So basically he’s the best.

Ive been here a couple of times and its typically intimate enough to meet the bands playing. Also nice selection of beers and, in particular, Baltimore beers. Worth checking out. Nice art as well

Got to see Soccer Mommy play here. This was a wonderful evening. Cute little venue and nice booze selection at the bar, thank god! If you get in early for your show, you can camp out on one of the very coveted couches and be super comfy for the show. Apparently they like to repurpose the coat rack for merch when bands come to town so dont count on there being anywhere to hang your coat. Just hold onto it.

Was here for a show, nice little venue!! The staff is very friendly. It is a little on the small side but not so bad to make you uncomfortable. I would definitely come back if there were a band playing I wanted to see.

Great place to see a show. The best part of this venue is that live music sounds great here. Also a great tip is and you can park in the parking lot for Penn Station for $2.50 all night.

Husband saw Mortis here a while back awesome no complaints about anything the venue can control. Metal shows awesome. Only real issue was a lot of homeless people trying to bum cigarettes and bus fare. Some getting agressive if you didnt smoke or Vaped instead. But eh comes with the territory I guess. Never really mind helping someone out but getting hassled because you dont have menthol cigarettes or $5 to help them get to DC is a bit much. Just be prepared if you go outside to vape/smoke between sets.

Really cool place to see your favourite bands. I was surprised at how small it was, but there was enough space for their guests. The members of the bands performing there were sitting and talking with the fans. Unique environment in Baltimore.

This is a nice venue for smaller shows. The bar staff was fast and friendly and accommodated me when I was below the card minimum which they surely didnt need to do. Also it sounded great for the style of music I was there for. (dark, heavy, slow metal.)

Tiny, intimate space with excellent sound- a combination not often seen. If a band you like is playing here, go.

Review №69

Great spot to catch traveling music or local shows. Door charges can be a bit steep; I hope that reflects what the bands get paid. Great if you know who or what youre going to see but too expensive to be a pop in and check out the tunes sort of place. Much less scummy or divey than a lot of rock/punk venues, though (clean bathrooms!) and the stage is great, as is the audience area. A Station North gem.

I love and hate this venue. Great shows and awesome staff, but the set up is terrible, and big posts block the view of the stage. Great bar and bartenders, but its always mobbed and a pain to get drinks. Sound is usually on point, but two single-person bathrooms are always a long wait. However, its one of the landmarks of the Baltimore music scene so always worth it.

I am a fan of small venues and underground music. The bar in the back jams up with people and despite the great bartenders, it can be difficult to get a drink. This is still my favorite venue in all of Maryland.
