Fun place for live band! Different live bands every weekend. Down side is that they have no kitchen but you can bring your own food or order some Italian food next door. Our whole family had fun when we were there last month. Lucky they had their outdoor grill up so we had yummy burgers definitely going back!

Came for the first time for an outdoor, distanced show and it was just what I needed! The music, staff and drinks were great. The bonfires, heat lamps and string lights made for a fun outdoor experience. Bundle up and head to Fitzgerald’s for the best (and maybe only) way to safely enjoy live music this year.

Another beautiful night if Fitzgeralds on their outdoor patio. with the great live blues of Smiley Tillman and Kate Moss last night it turned out to be what may be one of our last fall outdoor nights of the year. The courtyard is set up beautifully for social distancing at its best. Comfortable Adirondack chairs are grouped throughout with a beautiful large fire pit right in the center. There are also tables as well. There is a walk-up bar, but also great service at your seat is available. Highly recommend.

Ive been sneaking into this place since I was 15.Great local joint with new owners but still worth the trip.Live music indoors, 3 bars and a outdoor live music venue.

The best outdoor patio in town ! Fresh, seasonal cocktails along with an ever changing beer list. The music is top notch and you can bring your own pick nic basket ! I LOVE FITZGERALDS PATIO!

The newly social-distanced patio at Fitzgeralds, along with a brand new outdoor stage is wonderful! Will Duncan, the new owner who took over from the retiring Fitzgerald family in March, has worked hard to make a great, comfortable outdoor space to hear live music. While observing all the necessary Covid-19 precautions, I was able to sip a draft (hibiscus!)beer and listen to the Nick Moss Trio while appropriately spaced at my own little table with Andirondack chairs. The patio was full of music fans and it was a perfect, mid 80° Saturday night. Go early, since current village regulations may call for a 9pm. shutdown. Bring a mask and tip well---Support your community and this creative, fun place!

Fantastic 15-piece Orchestra for only a $10 cover! The Best of Chicago Jazz, classic Frank Sinatra, Michael Buble Style music! It was easy to park and there was no cost for parking. While this place has a wonderful bar, they do not serve food. But there are Italian restaurants right next door in the adjoining business. So we came here for Chicago jazz music and FitzGeralds was absolutely up to the challenge. We saw Antonio Ducca and a fantastic Orchestra!! I give Fitzgeralds five stars!

Had a great time at this small venue spot for live music. I jammed out to Big Lagniappe and the sound quality was spot on. The liquor options are ample and at reasonable prices. Theres tables for meals and conversations before or in between acts. They also have a small dance floor right in front of the band to jam with. One draw back is they dont serve food in the bar, but they allow you to bring food in. Id recommend this place for good live music and a good time.

Saw NDI at Fitzgeralds last night. Nice place. There were plenty of tables to sit down if you wanted, which is something that a lot of bars forget about. Its usually three tables and a couple of bars stools . I like have the option to sit. Im not really old but my body cant take standing for hours like it used to. The bathrooms were clean. The stall had its own sink which I loved. The acoustics were really good. Good place to see band. Easy to find.. parking was easy unlike in the city. Didnt have to pay and just parked down the street. I would return. We had a good time . Lots drink choices too

Stopped in for a Tuesday night show- Atmosphere was impeccable. Tables with candles and string lights provided just enough ambient light. Great intimate atmosphere to enjoy the music. Drinks were decently priced and the waitresses were nice. Although we didnt try the Capri restaurant next door, we might have to next time as the entire parking lot entering Fitzgeralds smelled like fresh bread= amazing.

Love Fitzgeralds. No restaurant but they have some decent restaurants near by and you can bring your food into the Venue. I think they will take a food order for a restaurant adjacent to them. Atmosphere is great. Good entertainment too.

Ive lived in the neighboring town for decades and this is the first time Ive ventured in. I attended their Voicebox, where Cathy Richardson of Jefferson Starship joins Maureen Muldoon. Its a storytelling event with a musical twist. Stories are inspired by a given song and after each story is told, Richardson, inspired by the story performs a song. I enjoyed it

Fitzgeralds is an iconic music Hall! The staff is great. They dont serve food but you can order delivery and they allow you to bring in outside food. Their cocktails are tasty with plenty of beer and wine options. I live in the area and really enjoy the option to have live music that isnt so loud you cant have a conversation with your partner. The music varies from night to night. Cover varies as well, seems based on the artist. The highest Ive seen so far is $15

Well known venue for live music. Small and cozy place to see live music acts from around the world. Only thing lacking is parking. The place gets crowded when well known acts perform.

Legendary, well-run concert venue in a funky-fun former bohémian hunting lodge. Reasonably- priced drinks, courteous, friendly staff and INCREDIBLE performances in an intimate setting. Dont miss out on having a terrific dinner next door at Cafe Capri either!

Review №62

Fitzgeralds is the realest of deals. I am lucky to call it my local. It is a Roadhouse worthy of Austin, Nashville, or anywhere music is played with conviction. Any night finds locals or national touring acts making it their home and making you part of a scene where music binds the room. Dont expect fancy. Expect authentic and welcoming. Come to partake and never leave disappointed. Also, check out the Sidebar for fantastic craft cocktails.

Review №66

Music was great. Didnt like all of the talking going on during the show, ESPECIALLY during the acoustic portion. I also believe that those taking selfies and group pictures with the flash on during the show should not be allowed. Its a distraction for those that want to see whats on stage. There was WAY TOO MUCH of that last night for Sonny Landreths show, in fact, we saw people leaving because of it. Make an announcement before the show next time.

There are no words to describe how good the music is at Fitzgeralds or how attentive the bar guys are in the Side Bar. The gals in the main venue are swamped so you have to be patient. Open mike nite is an eye opening experience. Theres plenty of street parking just avoid the temtation to park where thaere are tow signs......they are SERIOUS. And if you are odd on Fitzz choice you can drive a touch to the west and stop in at Wire early. If you lose something at Fitzgeralds they are ultra upstanding and do a great job of reconnecting you with your list item!!!!!Priceless!!!!!!

The American Music Fest is a must! They bring in such amazing talent and its just a great atmosphere. They identify incredible talent way before theyre established so it gives you an opportunity to see acts like Trombone Shorty play on a tiny stage for 100 people!The owners are awesome and you can see how their personalities and passion for music run through the venue.Also, their Fat Tuesday parties are a blast and they have unbelievable jambalaya.

Review №99

FitzGeralds is my favorite place to go for live music! They always have great shows, enough room for my friends and I and they attract a good group of people. I usually go for Big Band, Rockabilly or Beatles cover bands. They have a heated tent outside and there is always plenty of parking. Sometimes you need to buy your tickets in advance or get there early for a good seat, but its always a good time.I once had a work party there and they were awesome to us!Check out their calendar of events online and go.
