Our dart league held its banquet there last night and we had a great time. The food was delicious and the drinks were good. There was plenty of room for everyone to spread out and mingle. I love the large patio area with more than enough seating. The staff was friendly and made sure to come out to the patio to let us know that they were starting the meeting inside. Over all it was a great experience and we will be back.

Ive been going there since they opened. Very great family-owned business. They are very hospitable and respectable people. Food prices and drink prices are great. The cook named Cody is fantastic at what he does. Leslie the bartender is fantastic at what she does very entertaining and loving.

Clean per CDC guidelines and remodeled for your comfort! This is a local owned bar that has live music! Great meeting spot for friends and Friday nights, well ANY night for that matter! I love the old truck out front that lets you know youve found it! Masons Live!

Weve brought a crew for karaoke on Wednesdays a couple times now and had a blast. If the crowd ever picks up Id prefer it to the downtown spots. Cant wait to see a show here (stages outside and inside).

I was going there with my brother and wife and the atmosphere was great along with the food that was available. This time we were shocked! No bar stools around the bar. The server was okay but not attentive to see if we needed anything to drink. We shot a couple of games of pool and we wanted something to eat. No food available at all!! Last time we will visit the place.

Im a fan of this place since they opened. After they got through the first few months, service improved... there are times when its not perfect but thats part of having a busy, crowded, popular venue. Live music and entertainment, with a great outside patio makes this place one of my favorite new additions to South Lakeland! Thanks for investing in our community and for bringing your unique perspective to our community!

We had our annual Christmas party here this past Sunday. It was great! Full menu with lots of delicious food to choose from and a full bar! Atmosphere is warm and cozy with plenty of seats and a large dance area. Darts, pool, foos ball are also part of the fun..and I cant forget the LIVE Music.. Children are welcome to dine with parents until 8pm. I dont drink alcohol but will definitely be back for the food. Wheelchair accessible, juke box available for a fee..Only negative is bathroom stalls are kinda small.

I would say this place is great but they need to do a better job on the hiring process for bartenders. I had an extremely rude bartender the very first and last time going. She not only completely ignored me after she said she would tab me out but waited another 15 minutes before handing me my card. While I had already been waiting long enough I had started conversation with a friend that I havent seen in awhile and she proceeded to rudely interrupt me and said do you want you card or not ...yes, took you only 30 minutes to collect it for me! Needless to say, I wont be returning to this establishment and if you want your establishment to last longer than a year, consider hiring new people....

Music was great, but service by some waitresses was awful. Sat down at an empty booth, then was pushed out by rude patrons who claimed they purchased said booths, which were not VIP. Waitress with red bandana and white flower told us she was going to kick is out for sitting there. Never asked us to move politely just was rude off bat. Other servers apologize for her behavior, but she continued to be rude the rest of the night. Would like to come back, but not sure.

One of my favorite places to dance and hang out with friends! There is a huge dance floor, and it is great that smoking is not allowed inside. BUT, they do have an outside venue where smoking is allowed, and there is music and a dance floor there, too!

I purchased tickets for a male review and the show was canceled. When I asked for my refund I was told I needed to contact the site I purchased my tickets through. I contacted the site and was then told I needed to contact the venue. I spoke with Lindsey and was told I needed top speak with another person. I have tried several times to contact the person in change of the event with no luck. I still have not received my refund.

Review β„–14

Mens only cover on a Friday night is ridiculous. It wasnt a special or ladies night, why do I pay because I have a penis? Way more dudes inside than ladies on top of that. The bands were mediocre. The bar service was slow. The bar tender messed up my order and triple charged me. Then left me standing for 15 minutes to wait for a manager to fix it. Ended up just having him make a drink for a friend since he obviously forgot about me. Im never going back.

Review β„–15

I will never give my business to this place again and I have told friends and family as well the place is a disaster I went Saturday night to see a concert it took me 25 min to get a bartender to acknowledge me to get my drink and once she did she was very rude to me, bathrooms were disgusting nothing stocked, stopped up toilet, the uni sex had urine all over the ground just plumb nasty, I went with my daughter to this event and some of her friends got kicked out without the owner even letting them give an explanation her friends boyfriend is a tall boy and he got shoved around by two guys and one guy spit in my daughters friends face. The security is a joke, worst experience of my 43 years of living i wouldn’t reccomend this place to nobody.

Review β„–16

Garbage experience. I Shouldve listened to the previous reviewers 1 star experience/recommendations. This place sucks. Id give it no stars if possible. The Staff is also extremely unprofessional & rude. Hostess with the large 2- front teeth & glasses throws her hands in the air constantly when annoyed with customers and the gentlemen with the long hair talks trash to customers he is very confrontational.. . Wont be returning. Ever. Place was dirtier than a pig pen & restrooms Were disgusting! Im surprised The health inspector hasnt been called on this business to be shut down.

Review β„–17

I went to Masons about a month ago, and the place was packed and the music was awesome! I danced all night and had a blast! I went back on 10/8 looking forward to a night of dancing. A band was playing and they were pretty bad. When the dj came on, I was excited, but he was absolutely horrible! He played 4 different songs, from 4 different decades and 4 different genres within the span of 3 minutes, mixing and scratching the entire time! You could NOT dance to that noise or even get into the music. It was atrocious! I left after one drink.Please get rid of that dj and bring in someone who knows how to play dance music! There is no other place in Lakeland to dance. Now I cant even go there!

If you are looking for a place to go have a great time any night of the week Masons Live is the place to go! The entire staff and owners are proffessional but also are the kind of people you want to hang around. The bartenders are always quick to take your orders and actually take the time to know the customers. The food is great and service was on point. The atmosphere is awesome, because it is not only lit inside, it offers an awesome outside bar if your looking for a more laid back vibe. Most Importantly, Masons Live understands what it takes to successfully have Live Music. The bands are always great with a variety of music ranging from some of the best country bands, rock, top 40, and some of the best DJs around. Every night offers some kind of great event or special, so definitely go check out why there is so much positive hype around this place!!

7 dollars for bottom shelf diabetes. The drinks were served in small plastic dixie cups. For how much the drinks are you would think they could invest in their bathrooms but there was no soap, the paper towel dispensers were broke and my wife said that they didnt even have toilet paper in the womans bathroom. I had hope for this place too.

Awesome bar located on the southside of Lakeland! Nice indoor bar with a dance floor and the outside patio is very large. This place gets busy and has a great crowd. The staff is very friendly.

Review β„–21

$5 cover seriously? There is no one here. This place is dead and is almost every time we come. Weve given them three tries but this is he last one. It appears to always be like this. There are ten people here including the five that we brought. The other four in our group didnt want to come because they knew how bad it was. We shouldve followed their lead when they decided to not come here. Were just going to Ybor live instead or Cobb and Penn much better and no cover for an empty bar

If there was a star for a no rating it would be the one selected this place is a joke not even sure how there still in business. Horrible service and there security is a joke. Want to have a great time visit the Dallas Bull in Tampa. Dont waste your time or money at this place...

These bartenders have walked past my girlfriend and I both a million times and other people with empty drinks. the service sucks here. thank god for the live musicmusic was good mr. owner but i dont have a way to reapond to your lie of a response. we were laughing after i was asked who o was and then you and your manager being royal sarcastic a holes. you should take commments seriously and not try to turn them into competition putting comments to ruin your not healthy rep that we should have listen to before going there. I dont even work in hospitality. you are no good with people or running that place.

Personally, it wasnt for me. Its a 20s crowd and I waited way too long to receive drinks. The outside band was pretty good. But its for a much younger crowd and the parking was a nightmare

Review β„–26

UFK Masons Live lol the security team is a joke but thanks Masons for the 90% off $150+ tabs every time I paid a visit lol!!This place needs some security training, what a joke. I came to Masons with my friends who just flew in from New Mexico. The night was decent we had a good time until I was shoved by a bouncer. I didnt pose a threat and even if I did, putting your hands on a customer should be a last resort in self defense or in defense of another person. Again I wont complain to much because I got serious discounts from my favorite bar tenders every time I showed up ; )

Review β„–27

Recently quit. I was up at the business to collect my last check and was planning on quitting after it was collected because they have been known to not pay people in the past. When I went there, there was no check for me from payroll. For whatever reason my hours werent approved. Same 20 measly hours I get every week. Bookkeeper said she would write me a check. She just needed permission from the new GM. The GM told her to write the check, but hold on to it until I go talk to her. I said no, I would like my check. They wouldnt give me my check for my hours worked. Finally, she said she would mail it. Though, legally you cannot dangle someones check over their head if theyre there to pick up their check on pay day, I allowed them to mail it. I just received the check today...it is short. I get the same amount every week, and now this one is short. It was already a hassle getting this check to begin with. And the GM has been acting like its a bother the entire time. Absolutely ridiculous.

Ive gone here a few times, the vibes are always chill expect on spanish night when you have a bunch of guys who cant seem to stand sharing the spot light hating. O and the music on latin night really sucks. The dj plays a bunch of old merengue bachata, and salsa. Dont get me wrong is transition to different music is good. He just need to update is out dated playe list.

Worst bar in Lakeland. Try to act like theyre in Tampa in small town Lakeland. Place is laughable. Bouncers are overly agrresive and looking for a chance to punch you. They are currently being sued for bouncers beating up customers. Buyer beware.
