The Auricle - Venue & Bar

My first experience at The Auricle was awesome. The staff were extremely friendly, everything was clean and well kept and who can beat free arcade games. The selection of non-alcoholic drinks is nice for those of us who are a DD or cant drink.

Great bar with awesome bartenders. Very open and friendly. The owner is very cool and doesnt tolerate bigots or haters. Plus it has some of the most creative beers, different enough that I even drink them. There is also a free arcade and other games too. The bar also has different events different nights of the week. Follow them on social media to see whats going on. Very chill place, and easily one of my favorites.

Great little live music venue. The staff was cool, great drink selection & lots of arcade games that were all free to play. Oh and lots of parking directly next to it was a plus. Definitely a place to check out when going for a night out downtown.

The facilities and staff were awesome. Accommodating for disabled people. Easy entrance and nice back patio. Prices were great and a wonderful place for concerts. Small and intimate.

Absolutely amazing venue for live music. The sound is perfect. I will be going back for sure

Awesome place. By far, the cleanest bathrooms and friendliest bartender ive met in a while. A+++

Great space with excellent audio and well priced drinks.

Saw Hawthorne Heights at the Auricle July 2021. Was supposed to be an outdoor show but with the heavy rain they thankfully moved the show inside. I have mobility issues, upon arrival I was taken in a side door and shown to the ADA section which was stageside. Very appreciative for that. Near the end of the show we went outside to get some air. My daughter was very hot and sat on the sidewalk to cool off. One of the staff saw her and brought her a glass of ice water. Never at any other venue has that happened. Again, so appreciative for that! Ive been to ALOT of shows in multiple states & never has a venue been as friendly and accommodating! The Auricle Staff are a class act! Thank you for making this show so special for us! We will be back!

Great venue! I came in from Minneapolis for the Sun Kil Moon show last night and really enjoyed this place. The staff were helpful and friendly, and the energy and atmosphere were great. It was my first time catching a show in Ohio and I’m thankful it was here. Thank you!

Really cool little venue with a great sound system. We really enjoyed Bring Your Own Song Night and cant wait to go back for Vinyl Night!

Nice little venue. We really enjoyed it.

Currently at a show here. Four metal bands, from Cleveland, Pittsburgh and Virginia. Absolutely blown away by the sound quality, the best Ive maybe ever heard at a venue. Will Absolutely come again. Thats not even mentioning the full bar and large selection of beer. Once again have to say that the sound is just amazing, big props to the audio engineers.

Quick drink to see whats going on for First Friday and say whats up to the homie behind the bar. Shout out Adonis, best bartender, and DJ in Canton!

Fun and safe place. LGBTQ friendly, amazing Queens ❤️❤️

I have never been to this venue, and I really didnt know what to expect. Located a short distance from the freeway and easily accessible to the downtown Canton area and surrounded by other restaurants and bars. This place was a lot more inviting than some of its neighbors. The bar was very clean and well kept. The sound system for the show we saw there sounded great, very good, sound guy. Prices were reasonable and staff was friendly. I just wish they had some food offerings. Josh, the owner, was friendly and accommodating. Look forward to seeing another show there again soon

What an absolutely awesome little new venue with a gorgeous stage and possibly the best sound guy we’ve ever had the pleasure of encountering (thank you Nick)! This place was beautiful inside, very clean, modern and clearly well thought out. The stage was very well designed and had great accommodations for the bands. The Green room was very nice as well. Again, I can’t stress how awesome the sound was. The bartenders were very knowledgeable and friendly and the beer selection is excellent and priced very modestly for their vast selection of craft beers. Having played in venues throughout Northeast Ohio for decades, I have to give some love when we run into a venue that’s as much of a gem as this one. Not since Stella’s opened have I found a nice, clean new venue to be this excited about. Go check it out and support the great little local music and art scene they have been developing in Canton! Don’t sleep on this one!

First Friday! We rolled in at about 12:15 and the place was jumping! The wife and I were the oldest people in the place but the crowd was as diverse as it gets. That was awesome to see! Everyone was having fun.

Hands down my favorite bar. Obviously there’s super busy nights (they have GREAT bands play and other really cool events) so I just skip those because I’m not crazy about crowds. It’s a big venue so when it’s packed, it’s PACKED. Even so, all of the employees are really nice and karaoke nights are super fun too!

Cool little spot. Highly recommend a pop in.

Best bar in town for varieties of beers, both on draft and bottles/cans. Thursday is Pint Night, and Seth, the bartender, makes you feel like youre his only customer at the bar!

This place SO fun! The Drag show was awesome and First Friday had a great vibe too. It started as a bar and as the night went on they cleared space so people can dance. - see?! SO fun:) I love that this place is right here in Canton!

Ive played here a few times and I always enjoy it. Great drink selection, free arcade games and theres a green room for the bands.

Great venue. Very friendly people. Excellent vibe. Hope to go again soon.

Im gonna go ahead and give it up the bartenders tonight were yes drop dead gorgeous, kind and very interacive with patrons. Awesome setting very clean and fair prices actually very fair. Looks as if the owners take pride in the place. Also, there is a great place for dancing and man absolutely great people with a well mix of people Im impressed I will definitely be back. I bet this place Rocks late night would not know but worth coming back to find out. Cheers you tenders thanks for making our stop one worth stopping. Peace.n Lovethechristophercollections

Josh was gracious enough to welcome us inside his wonderful establishment for my daughters gender reveal party when our outdoor cookout was going to get rained out. Thank you so much for your kindness. It was great meeting you.

Good small bar. Amazing veer selection and good variety of live music. Surprisingly pretty clean and staff was friendly too.

The auricle is such a fun place for anyone to go to! There are such a wide range of events: comedy, burlesque, drag, trivia, pint night, beer club, dance night, karaoke, BYOS, different genres of music performances, & plenty more. There is a spot for everyone. Auricle is the only place now that I will drink at! After loving it for so many years, I decided to join the team. Not only is this a great place to hangout at, it’s also a great place to work at. The auricle has changed me in many great ways! You will not be disappointed ☺️

One of my favorite places to go on Friday night! The staff is always great and the environment and customers are always so friendly.

Ive been to a lot of bars/Venues. It was great. Staff was great! The Bartenders, busy but pleasant. The bathroom were clean even after the show. The Reverend Horton Heat put on a great show. Thank you.

The Auricle is a good fun place to hangout. Very clean inside and the bar is well stocked and maintained.The staff is great and know how to mix drinks.They have a wide variety of musical options for everyone - from local bands like The Scenic Route, to drag queen shows.While this isnt a gay bar it is very gay friendly.

Went there for NYE. Its a remodeled former burger king. Very nice bar. No menu, but snacks, so dont come hungry. A nice addition to DT Canton for the younger people to hang out.Pool and ping pong tables along with many other board and card games to enjoy. Outside games are permitted. DJ booth for tunes and plenty of flat screens for visual enjoyment. Game on!

This is the best bar in Canton. Always welcoming and great staff. There are plenty of drink options, even non-alcoholic options. Lots of fun events. Good people, good prices. Never regret visiting The Auricle.

Cool spot but if you get a chance check out the amphitheater up the road

Great place for craft beers, games, music... Nice place to just hang out...

The Auricle is a solid spot. Good beer selection, great service and pretty decent music. Better than almost all of the other bars downtown. It used to be my favorite place for first fridays and such but since theyve moved upstairs, I find myself liking it a little bit less. I cant quite put my finger on the reason why but its lost some of its charm for me - still one of my favorites though

This place was more awesome when they would be a music venue. Still a cool place but i liked it better when they had bands. Also I understand that its a rule that we cant have drinks outside but sometimes i forget. Itd be nice if the bouncer would remind me that i cant have drinks outside so i can finish it but instead my drink was taken out of my hands and thrown in the trash. I understand and respect the rule and if he told me I cant have it outside, i would not have been angry. Unless you paid for my drink, dont throw it away.

I went to the unofficial pride afterparty at the auricle and had an amazing time! Drink prices were reasonable, staff was kind, and the performers were EXCELLENT

Awesome venue, for smaller intimate concerts. The staff is great. It’s nice to have a cool spot close to home to catch shows and not always have to travel far up north to do so.

Had a blast. Show was fantastic and bar staff was great. Good atmosphere and plenty of space and great drinks. Nice patio area to hang outside as well

This is a very cool music venue and the selection of drinks(beers, mixed or otherwise) is more than sufficient. I enjoy seeing a good assortment of local brews on draft(they have 10). The staff were very helpful and friendly.

Great beer selection. Decent music. And Cantons only unofficial undergroud sauna. They should offer personal lockers for a change of clothes or a towel, given the place turns into an axe doused steam room on weekend nights.

We love the Auricle!!! We love it so much we had our wedding reception after party there. I mean, why stop the party if you can just move it to a better place, right?? Highly recommend.

Not my first choice of bars to go while visiting downtown, as I prefer Georges or Buzzbin for a show. But occasionally The Auricle has shows and is a great end of the night spot, or a spot to go dance with friends on the weekends. Its still a local spot and I support it!

Comfortable establishment, love the bingo nights

A beautiful bar with the best bartenders. Always attentive and so many options to keep you busy. Darts, ping pong, or pool. They have karaoke as well. Can also be pretty low key. Love this place!

Such a great spot! Best selection of beer in canton. Whether you are looking for trivia, karaoke, or even a drag show. This music venue does it all .. its the cheers of downtown.

This place is the best... Real people, literally awarded best beer selection for 2016, staff is awesome.... Great place to hang out and meet people or go with old friends! It should be noted that while the bar is EXTREMELY LGBT+ friendly....it is not technically a gay bar as Google would suggest... Lol

The new building is nice but only two stalls in the girls bathroom. The dance floor I wish had more seating around it. Difficult to watch our stuff at the table and our friends dance

The coolest alternative / nerd bar around! Catch em on a good Friday or Saturday night though and you find yourself thrown into the middle of a packed dance club with a mix of euphoric partyers!Great craft beer selection. Slight techy/goth vibe. Back outdoor patio surrounded by low fencing. Very cool art. Just go there. Check it out. Enjoy yourself!

Spacious with a great vibe. They run a stellar trivia night on wednesdays with a wonderful MC. It aint easy trivia, but its the best.

Ive been going to this bar for the last five years and Ive never had anything but awesome experiences. The bartenders are all wonderful people and I cant wait to see what theyve done with the new location when it opens up!

Good hangout but Still dont no why they take all the chairs and tables from the bar and certain parts of the room i see the dance floor is good and needed but people love to seat and chill also.

They have different beer every week, so perfect to find your favorite one. Trivia night is really good, you meet a lot of nice people there.

Love going here! Its always a good time! Trivia night is my favorite!!

Cool bar! Super weird to figure out though. Its either really empty (like 3 people in the whole bar) or really super crowded to where you can barely walk through. Been here so many times though I love the set up

The Auricle is by far my favorite bar to go to! They have a well stocked bar, awesome bar tenders(shout out to mike!), and a dance night every first friday of every month!! They also do events in between so check out their facebook page to see what theyve got going on!

I bought four VIP tickets and was turned away at the door for not having vaccine card with me. Auricleshealth and safety states only masks are required. Ticket websites doesnt address anything about covid. The comedians website doesnt say anything about covid. Venue refused to give a refund, and could not show where the vaccine is required other than a poster inside the the venue. Hoping for a refund for my $240.

I go every time Kardi Redd Diamond hosts/performs a show there and is never disappointed! Its a nice little spot with excellent staff, good drinks & fair prices!

This is a really cool place in Downtown Canton to check out. The beer and drink selection is good and it has a fun atmosphere. Plus, there’s music here quite often.

Best beer selection in all of Canton, Adonis the bar manager is really attentive even when the bar is full. Always recommend.

Great beer selection and awesome service. Perfect spot to catch some great bands and have a drink!

It was a great experience! My Mom and I came from Columbus to visit my Aunt who lives in Canton. We came to here after leaving the African American Arts Festival.

Very dive bar feel. Cleanest, nicest bathroom at a concert I have even been in. Super friendly staff, nice smoking patio space.

Nice chill vibe, live music!!

Enjoyed the venue for Karaoke the one Saturday night. You get to sing on stage! Great atmosphere! Drink prices are good!

Watched Agent Orange and was impressed with the facility.its hard to imagine it was a burger king the last time I was there. Highly recommend shows there.

Nice venue. Great show by Vesperteen!

Love this place! Met my husband here and the rest is history

Great place. I heard they require proof of vaccination now so I wont be going back anytime soon. But it was a good spot.

We went and enjoyed a Scared Scriptless show. A very good show. The staff was friendly drinks were cold and reasonable. Definitely recommend.

Was there for first fridays and the bar was neat and the bartenders were nice and attentive. The only thing I wasnt a fan of is that the fact that there was a 10 minimum on cards but thats not an issue.

Fun place, nice staff and the drink prices are good.

Fun bar with great atmosphere. Karaoke nights are amazing and I highly recommend going!

If you want to go to a bar where its not the boring old same routine in ohio then the Auricle is the place you need to be. Great atmosphere and even better music, drinks are great, awesome beer selection and fast service.

Saw a Spice Girls tribute band here. Its just a typical bar to me... nothing special but the concert was awesome!

I like what they did to the place, used to be a burger king. The stage is nice and big. Friendly staff. I must say, stop in and enjoy the entertainment.

Slow bar service. But good music. Pretty much the only place with a dance club vibe in canton. Cool patio area too.

Went to a harry potter themed night for my birthday and it was so much fun. They had good music, drinks, and trivia.

I think this place has the best craft beer selection in town. I have great memories of Canton Storytellers, good conversations and delicious beer here.

Great venue with good selection of beer and drinks. Also, cool place for local flea market events during the winter.

This place is awesome. Owner has done a fabulous job renovating. Extremely well managed.

Great bar great beer to choose from friendly people I love stopping in!!

This is the best bar in Canton! The owner Josh is a truly awesome human and the staff is amazing.

Super busy. Good music. Bathrooms sucked. Bartenders are super nice and so are security!!

Super cool space. Looking forward to going there more often. Love that they kept the drive thru sign!!

Best bar in Canton as far as Im concerned. Great beer selection, atmosphere, patio, staff etc.

Well, they have settled into the new location quite nicely. Great atmosphere, and great prices, make for an enjoyable night.

Good place, good vibes, good prices! Love this spot! Free pool &darts as long as youre drinkin!?! :)

This place is the best place to dance and be yourself. 10:30-11 is when it really starts to go down! Fun times!

Awesome beer selection. Great prices. Kourtney is a good bartender.

The Auricle is chill and the bartenders are awesome. Its the perfect spot to grab a beer and just hang for awhile.

Was an awesome night went to see Matt Hackler and Lost Dog Street Band.. They were amazing!!

Larger building, the wait at the bar can take some time, also theres an outdoor smoking area that allows for you to keep your brews or whatever youre drinking.

Great place to see a band - so grateful they pulled Electric Six (orrr 5 really)!

Music was bad. Random people dancing on stage wasnt what I wanted to watch. And I had a rude bartender.
