The best place in Fresno. I saw a new band here! Some of my heart lays here. The band I saw is now my favorite band for life. This place helps shape me as a rocker and metalhead and inspires me in music
This is my favorite place to go out for a night on the town. Great food, stiff drinks and the staff is awesome. Everybody from the bartenders to the security staff is friendly and genuinely make sure youre having a good time. Food is phenomenal (best burger in town), vegan options available for those that dont dig on meat too. Great place to watch a show too, the new sound guys know how to dail in the music. Karaoke on Tuesday is super fun too! Great atmosphere! 10/10!
Old school. Huge dance floor eclectic vibe. Has a punk feel. At 57 years new I loved it.
Always have fun at karaoke. One complaint is you can hear yourself singing because of the way the speakers are set up. But still good.
Yum really good food
Its a bar....and a grill. They have live music, which is also good. 4/5 because the bartender was attractive, but my beer was barely above room temperature.
First time at this place from out of town and was by far the best place I went to out of 5 bars. Amazing food and music. Had a blast
Amazing Venue, super professional and friendly staff! Very intimate setting and I was there for a Metal show. This venue is now on my hit list of places to watch.
This is the hipster dive bar of Fresno. Its cool because theres a good mix of regular people and its not a pretentious place. Its a pretty ok place to check out if youve never been, or if theyre having a 90s music night or NYE celebration.
The food was amazing and the prices arent expensive. We took the VIP and was given a very comfortable spot. Overall, we enjoyed our stay here. Thank you, Strummers Bar & Grill!
Awesome food! Beer battered wings were awesome! Friendly staff, awesome place to see shows!
Love it here, Always having fun in the tower District on the weekends.
The bartenders expect a tip and if you dont tip they will call you out and get you kicked out
Been here many times for concerts both local and known bands. P.A sounds nice, bar is stocked and you can go in and out the venue for smoke breaks.
Cool place to hangout with friends have a drink and watch some football.
Saw Hot Flash Heat Wave. Great venue, security is very tight and does a great job to make sure everything is safe.
Great food, bands were good, bathroom was not useable. Afraid to touch anything In there. Needs attention.
They had a nice atmosphere! I didnt really try much of the food, but I did try the fries. They were just the way I like them, crispy, flavorful and reasonably priced!Everyone there was friendly and the local artists were great! I enjoyed the music of all the local performers (Xiihab, Pockets, and BK) who were out tonight! I really enjoyed myself!This place is sometimes an all ages welcome establishment. I think thats great, because when I was a young adult not quite old enough to attend a lot of venues, but over 18, I was thankful for the places like this who allowed young adults and offered live music, art and culture. Plus, its in the Tower District!
Best quesadillas Ive found
Didnt stay long. Friends were going to be there but didnt show up. Lady bartender was nice.
Small. But saw Bad Honey. Great venue nice and personal.
It was a cool spot its a rock and roll spot and the food was good
Robert Deloney best show yet. Awesome art shows on Monday. Im off Monday. Its the place I can get away into adult time
Neat place and hosts a lot events, but way too small for the amount of people attending each event. I went to 90s night and waited in line for a little over 2 hours before I could get in. They were literally counting how many people left and then letting that many people in. On the postive side the security guard and staff seemed friendly and it didnt take long to get a drink.
Everybody loves Strummers. A must stop on any pub crawl in the tower. They often have great music and bands that one would not expect would be is such an out of the way place. A true treasure. If you come to Fresno, don’t miss it.
Visited on a Friday night. Seemed like a fun and lively bar. Quite a few people that were obnoxiously drunk so expect an atmosphere like that if visiting late night (not too out of the ordinary for any bar late night).Didnt get a chance to try to eat here so cant suggest that.They have an outdoor patio with heaters which was nice for the winter or outdoor eating/drinks.
Strummers was really nice. It is considered a hole in the wall. Lol. But its one of the best hole in the wall spots for entertainment. The DJ played great HipHop music. I was visiting from Compton CA and had to see DJ Quik. The show was great. I will definitely return to Strummers again.
Nice places but not necessarily the cheapest, prices of drinks are not shown btw.
Great place for music and drinks. Cant wait till they have Wax Panther perform. He can kill a stage!
Best venue in town in my opinion! This place treats us like family!
Amazing staff always have an amazing time here
Always plays the BEST Music & Always have a fun time !! The DJz are the best!!
An amazing update to a classic establishment. The drinks are the same, the food is still amazing and the seating is better than it was. The bar lost some character with the remodel, but Im sure theyll work on that now that theyre open.
I mostly come here for the music entertainment but the food was pretty decent and so were the drinks. I really dig the vibes here. Also the security guards are cool. Any time I went outside to get some air they were always friendly
I freaken love this place. I go to shows here all the time! Its not always super hot in there like other venues. The food is amazing. Drinks are at a good price. The bartenders are extremely cool and nice. They have awesome events held there. Great atmosphere to hang out and drink and watch games too.
Visited on Halloween. Had a good time, met some new people, drinks were well made.Problem was that the service was slow. At one point, there were 3 people behind the bar just talking while customers waited. At the end of the night, they couldnt find my card and the woman bartender blamed me.i informed her that I had 1 drink and that she was out of line. Another patron said they did the same thing to him.I ended up getting my card back because a friend of mine (who had not been up to the bar with me at all) closed out my tab. What kind of bar just gives somebodies card out to a random person. I was very unsettled by this.My suggestion would be that if you go, dont leave your tab open.
I ordered food. Then they brought it to us. Then we ate the food.
Just went to Kpop Night here tonight! It was the best experience!
The place to go for live music in an intimate venue. If you want to get up close I mean really really close to your favorite performers Strummers is the place. They have two full bars during performances and a late night kitchen that makes great burgers and tacos. Some vegetarian and vegan options too Thai tacos are to die for. The ticket prices are rock bottom. Pay attention to your favorite artist tours and if they booked Strummers you need to make it to that show. Bigger name artists can sell out the venue easily so dont wait till the last minute to snag your tickets. Just be aware the security is pretty strict, no weapons or any of the normal no nos drugs/booze ect are allowed inside. But on the flip side it feels pretty safe! A lot of shows are even all age events so if you wanna bring the kiddos to rock out too its often an option!
Met some friends there after a memorial service. Small streetside bar with larger area inside.
I love the atmosphere of this place. Its for all tastes and preferences. Their beer is so good as well. Try whatever IPA of the season is. You cant go wrong with that.
Great Venue! Staff were very professional, prepping the crowd outside by checking tickets and IDs.Sound for both opening act and main was superb. Bar staff were friendly and food was good too. Was a little worried looking at Strummers from Google street view, but no worries inside. Had a blast!
I have been going to strummers since it was called the starline, its one of the only places that caters to the metal community. That being said, security hassled me over my id so i was forced to enter as a minor even though im 25. Drinks are expensive but it didnt matter because security was ridiculous. I digress. Aside from that, the venue itself is kinda small but its great when bigger bands come to play. Its more intimate.
Had an awesome time with 70s music.
I usually dont leave bad reviews but this place definitely isnt a 4 and a half stars. They have a bar on one side and a stage on the other but once you buy the drinks on the bar side they wont let you walk to the stage side. Its the most ridiculous venue set up Ive ever seen.
The impossible burger (vegan) was great! Servers were also super friendly and offered us a drink for having to wait. Highly recommend!
First time here at this bar. I had a great time drinking different types of mixed drinks and bartenders are nice and friendly. I will come back in the near future.
Really cool place. First time there and I loved the layout how the smoking section was a separate part of the bar, but was still inside. Great drinks, karaoke, and cool crowd. Definitely going again. 5/5
First time here I liked the atmosphere
Good food,Good service,Good people,Okay
Great food and great people calls for a great time. Recommend to anyone looking to explore Fresno.
Tower bartenders and drinks are great. I cant do cigarette smoke anymore. It kills the experience for me as much as 20 something old me is roller her eyes at me.
GREAT FOOD AND FAMILY PLACE. ALCOHOL IS SERVED,
Really cool atmosphere and lots to do thereThey have open mics as well as concerts
My favorite place for live music in Fresno. There is never a bad seat in the house. The venue is small and intimate yet the sound and vibe are big and bold.. Love it! Bartenders and bouncers are super cool too!
Best bar in Fresno. Great Liverpool crowd and amazing food for a pub!
The Experience was awesome seeing a bartender name Gabriel work harder than James Brown. They said that James Brown was the hardest working man in Showbiz. God bless his soul theres a new sheriff in town Gabriel is the hardest working man in Showbiz no matter how backed up know matter how long the lines are his mind is focused on giving a hundred and 110% to the customer. Always his attitude is kick ass take names as a work ethic he gets from his father and grandfather its a pleasure knowing this young man he has incredible work ethic I hope that the venue recognizes that and appreciates that. I also WOULD like to thank the Men responsible .
This is THE place to catch fantastic concerts by up and coming bands...also hilarious comedy shows. Reasonably priced event tickets, good beer selection, yummy food. Located just a hair north of Olive in the Tower District, behind the Dollar Tree and next door to B of A bank (ATM available). Open in the afternoon and evening.
Great spot for live shows!
Best place for surf punk shows.
Decent atmosphere, lots of fun concerts, and a bit of beer variety. Havent tried the food
I came here for the buttertones. Its an amazing intimate venue. Hard to find in L.A. where I live now. If you want to have a chance to meet the artists afterwards this is the place to do it.
Great bar really fun and good ppl
Smoking outside, expensive beer inside. The AC was great though. Seems to have cornered the market on selling tickets for small shows.
Great staff, great venue. Was the most well ran respectful mosh pits Ive ever seen. And they let you crowd surf. 11/10 concert venue
Strummers is a great venue for attending concerts. Its also nice for grabbing some drinks and a bite.
Glad Livingstones has reopened, one of the best from Fresnos past. Good food and great atmosphere!
Just amazing place to see great up and coming bands
I came here for a show they were having and Im so impressed by how great the venue is. Its hard to find great bar tenders like they have at this place. The layout is ideal. Probably my one of my top three venues is fresno.
Music was Great and I danced all night . I had so much fun .
Treated to Back to Black an Amy Winehouse Tribute, by my son.What a great atmosphere and very friendly staff! A perfect evening...
The best Karaoke in town!
Came to see Devil Makes Three and really enjoyed the show and the atmosphere. I like that there are a few different areas of the bar where you can pick up a drink when its crowded, and my boyfriend was really glad that he could also get some tacos!! We will definitely visit again.
Great little bar, and the stage next door makes for some ripping concerts.
It is a dive bar first and foremost. For example, the bathroom stalls arent attached properly to the walls anymore, there are comments on the written in too, and one of the womens restrooms is plastered with faces of teen icons from the nineties. The last part actually adds charms. It can be a little pricey for a group to see a show which may not be any good but its reasonably priced and one of the better evening entertainment places in Fresno.
I liked how intimate the club experience is. It was alot of fun to see bands play there. The drinks and chili cheese tater tots are delicious.
Love the food. Vegan & meat options available.
Im here right now Im not a big drinker and the bartenders talk to me like I was stupid. I ordered a 50/50 thinking it would be sweet however it wasnt. When I went to ask for help to fix it or get something new they were not friendly in fact the male bartender was super rude even trying my drink I felt so insulted.I ordered a drink I paid for it they should service me and make me one feel comfortable and two customers right. Fix my drink. Or replace with equal value at least. Very disappointed. I do love the atmosphere. Was hoping for live music. Overall Id say good place cool people nice hang out awful bar service.
Love strummers. Great venue. Great food.
Strummers is always a great place to go and hang out with my friends. Security is tight and on top of any altercation and the bar staff are friendly and hilarious!
I love Strummers every time, whether its 90s night or any other night. The drinks are always tasty and the atmosphere is the best in tower !
Good atmosphere, quick to get drinks, dirty glass tho.
