I was very glad together with my friends that this nightclub open. We hung out there last night and had fun. They have all the securities that made you safe inside.

Guys dont spent your money and time. Not good music and literally there are 3 people dancing. Well, at least the blue margarita is good... But for sure it is not a place that I will come back with my friends , just so boring

Very interesting dive bar in SF . Definitely not a Dance Club like the Yelp category says. I wouldnt return because the music/crowd wasnt for me, but I could easily see others liking it!

I have been going to the exploratorium since I was a kid (shout out to middle school field trips!) and recently became an after dark member. The membership is an amazing deal, it pays for itself after 2 visits and now that I am a member, it is super convenient to swing by after work to unleash my inner child.

It is not just lounge and bars, there is as well a small dance floor and DJ to crank it up high!! met some cool friends there and had fun.

Best place to go out dancing in Seattle... Best crowd ever... Everyone is there to get along for a really good night of dancing and flirting to great Dee Jays spinning the best music with a beat you cant beat....

Great bartenders and coat check folks here. The venue hosts a wide variety of shows and includes two floors that are sometimes two separate events, so unlike some reviewers here - do a tiny bit of research about whats going on when you go. One nice thing about the crowd typically is that they come intentionally for the talent and not just to go clubbing. This makes for a good time and, despite the smaller size, is one of the few clubs in Seattle that brings the right mix of warehouse party energy while still feeling like an intimate neighborhood bar/club.

Went to the Pride drag king show and it was amazing. Every performer turned it out and it was like nothing I’ve ever seen before. The audience was thoroughly engaging and helped add to the atmosphere. It was fun exploring the other parts of the club and seeing what the place had to offer. My only complaint is the drinks are too small for what they’re worth.

The club took forever to get in and was scary over-crowded.The line for will-call took twenty minutes because they use a list of names instead of any barcode or qr system. Got inside and was pleasantly surprised with the lower interior. Nice lighting system, solid bartenders and good drinks too. However, by the time the headliner came on it was way, way too crowded. Shoulder pressed to shoulder, nowhere to move. Went upstairs to exit and was told they were allowed to have that many people in the lower space because their occupancy count included both floors. Ridiculous! This was a safety issue and felt pretty scary to be in that crowd in a basement with only exits on one side. Will not be going back again.

I would love to give this place a five for the great headliners they have. The ceilings are quite low because of the fact that this place is in a basement. Because of the large columns I feel the openness is really taken away from the atmosphere. The sound has been great. The security and crowd seem quite safe and interesting. Love to come here again for a less crowded show.

By far my favorite club in Seattle for experimental dance and electronic music. They consistently host quality, talented, lesser known DJs, and the crowd is usually pretty great too.

Review №14

Dont bother with bigger names here, they dont have the capacity. They let everyone into the bar upstairs (probably counting both upstairs and basement as the total capacity) then when the headliner is up everyone moves to the basement. Tiny space, no ventilation and no room to move. Literally filled all the way back to the bar. Felt very unsafe and probably should get code violation fines for running it like this.Im sure this place is great when not oversold, but the Moon Boots show was awful. Had to leave 10 min into the set because we couldnt even move.

This is the DMV of nightclubs. Be ready to be wanded, photographed and bring your six points of verification to get in. We walked into a small, hot room in the back to then find out it was a different venue (?). We went to check out downstairs only to be stopped and reprimanded in front of other patrons that it’s a completely different event for a higher cover. We would’ve paid the difference but the energy turned so negative and we left. What could’ve been a simple explanation from the start turned into a misleading embarrassment. How disappointing - I was really looking forward to a fun night of dancing with my community.

Either the other reviews are paid for or those peeps be trippin! I was there last night for about an hour... 3 stars because if your into trance or rubbing up to half naked dudes this may be your place. 18-25$ cover? The place is crazy run down. It looks like a couple pieces of wood arranged to look like something substantial in a Seattle alleyway. ...there was a live DJ but the music was bad, if your going to play techno, you better clipart at least a little of the greats> sandstorm/tsunami....or speed it up a little and use tech styles....Upstairs was a large dance area, but it was packed with dudes in undies and the music, and just as bad....bar tenders seemed cool enough, quick with the drinks, overpriced but its Seattle, dont waste your time here, unless you enjoy the aforementioned...

Amazing venue, always changing and staying fresh. Incredible sound system and a super attentive staff. If you want to hear the best music in town go here. This destination is also a beacon of queer culture and is inviting to people from all walks of life.

This venue is not meant for performances. It’s a decent dance club but if you see tickets for a performance here don’t bother.

Awesome semi-hidden nightclub on the edge of downtown and Capitol Hill. Attached to Little Marias pizza and the Timbre Room upstairs. Friendly bar and security staff. Just around the corner from Re-Bar, so if you happen to find yourself at Re-Bars Sunday night Flammable make the trek around the corner to check out Kremworks Fraktured (no cover on Sunday night, plus awesome drink specials). Check it out, you wont regret it.

If you want to dance to songs with lyrics do NOT go downstairs. Ive never been to worse or creepier place than the bar downstairs. I was told it was the more fun of the two bars and upon entry I was greeted by a DJ who would only play electric music with no one dancing. Then they would not allow me go to the bar on street level without paying more cover (the downstairs bar is more expensive). Also drinks are $11.. Go to the Q instead if you want to have a good time.

Dope ass spot with a top and bottom stairs. Generally play House music from what I know. Good vibes for that type of get down.

One of the best venues in Seattle! Great weekly events and awesome talent always on the bill. The staff is incredibly friendly and help provide the awesome vibe that Kremwerk has on a weekly basis! The place to be for underground electronic!

Street level beer bar is great when its warm out. Dank goth dance club hosts a lot of fetish events after dark. I miss the milk bar.

The girl doing the payments before entering the club padded the credit card charge.The charge was an extra $1. The guests that were with me all had the same happen. This is very scummy No one gave consent, nor were we asked if we wanted to give a tip at the entrance. Make sure to confirm charge, and ask for receipt. And contest any extra charge, as this will trickle down from the payment processor to them. Alternatively bring cash instead of card. Aside from that, the place is one of my favorites. Its always a relaxing experience if you get there right when the musician/dj starts, and if it gets too crowded you can go upstairs where it is usually more relaxed. Highly recommend it.

Wanted to see palm trax- paid at the door and bouncers sent us to the upstairs bar. Later we found out the show was at the downstairs bar, but the door people wouldnt let us downstairs unless we paid the door price again.

It was ok.... definitely not like a Berlin club like I heard, but not terrible. Music turned to 90s top40 after 2am... literally played Spice girls and Backstreet boys. Some people like it, but I came here thinking it was a proper club. I guess Im just a purist.

Awesome place to chill and relax. Loved the energy of the atmosphere and enjoyed onset last Friday night. Great DnB. Extremely hot in there; I suggest wearing barely any clothes.

Review №36

Excellent space to hear noise, drone, or other forms of not mainstream electronic music. Since Kremwerk is a basement venue, the concrete and steel that make up the place causes an excellent reverb when paired with their amazing speaker system. Lighting is dim, making it easy to misjudge the size of the place. Initialy you may believe it to be smaller than it actually is. Entry for most events is perfectly reasonable in terms of cost. Drinks are a little expensive, but not exorbitant. Definitely bring ear plugs.

This place would be better if a Thief and Drug dealer was not there trying to impress girls with his bongo drum when he did not even have the skills to play with other musicians. As in people who can read. My friends were very disappointed, so beware. He is a thief.

After standing in line for 20 minutes dressed in a Bob Ross costume on Halloween weekend, I was denied entry based on my “racist costume”. It ruined the entire group’s plans and was humiliating. Will never go back.
