This is a great place to see a band!We went to the Dresden Dolls and it was great to be so close... the layout really doesnt have a bad seat.During the show we attended it was standing room only on the main floor... no seats.We opted for the VIP reserved bowling lane on the second floor and it was worth every penny!! So nice to get there early and have some time to eat and bowl before the show.I cant stress enough how amazing the people that work there are; they were all so kind and friendly!!
Absolutely exceptional venue. The customer customer service is absolutely unbeatable. We attended the Red Clay Strays, it was 105 when we parked and not only we’re sanding in the shade while waiting for the door to open, which was convenient, they open the doors and let us go into the air conditioning. It was above and beyond. And truly set the tone for an amazing night. Great venue absolutely amazing so clean. I highly recommend it 10 out of 10!
Beautiful venue visited for a music concert. Atmosphere was amazing. Great acoustics and lighting. Multiple level floors for standing or seating with bars throughout. Bathrooms were very clean. Awesome upper level covered outdoor patio with bar that has beautiful view of Nashville sounds baseball field and Nashville. Top Notch overall!!!!Highly recommend you visit.
Best concert venue I’ve ever been to! It was small and intimate and we got there just a few minutes before the show started and found the best spot to stand. Everything was so smooth and easy, just walk in and enjoy the show without lines and hassle. I loved how it was a bar and bowling alley- no limited bar items with crazy prices like a typical venue. Obsessed.
Awesome experience at Brooklyn Bowl! #HiatusKaiyote #NashvilleI recently visited Brooklyn Bowl with my sister to see Hiatus Kaiyote. The staff was incredibly accommodating with ADA assistance, which I greatly appreciated due to my autoimmune disease. Their kindness made a huge difference! 🙏 💫 The venue itself has an amazing vibe, the sound was fantastic, and everyone seemed to be having a great time. Well definitely be back!
I paid extra money to get seating because I’m a disabled veteran with a bad back and my friend just had surgery and couldn’t stand for long periods of time. I also picked the seating closest to the stage when paying for the tickets. We showed up when the concert started and our seats were taken. The guard at the seating area told us that there wasn’t anything she could do. The other side of seating was completely empty and available. After informing her that we paid extra for seating and that I’m disabled and needed to sit down, they brought us one single stool put us in a roped off section at the very back of the venue. We couldn’t see the artist very well. The person doing this also made it seem like it was a massive burden to have to deal with people wanting the seats they paid for?? This was not okay and not the correct way to accommodate for ADA seating. Our seats were paid for and should have been reserved for those who paid or at least let us sit on the other side that was completely open and available. The stool was so uncomfortable we wound up sitting on the ledge of a window the whole night.The venue lighting was cool and the artist was amazing, which is the only reason I’m giving two stars. I’m really not impressed with how they handled the situation and I probably won’t ever recommend this venue to anyone. Very disappointing to know that if you pay extra money for seating, they’ll just give your seats away or they over booked the section?Edit: to reply to the owner (since there is no option for me to reply to their comment, I’ll do it here)I’m not sure why you’re saying you don’t have seating my when you have two balconies with benches and seats? Those are the tickets I bought and spent an extra $40 on to make sure I got. In the video you can clearly see people sitting in the seating section we paid to be in. When we went to get our seats, people were there. We asked the guard to please get us our seats and she told us she could get us a stool right next to the speakers (I have PTSD from the military and can’t be that close to loud noises) or in the very back. That is not an okay response to asking to get what I paid for. Also as a customer, am I supposed to leave the concert and take time away from the event I paid to see to deal with something that your team should have taken care of? I shouldn’t have to speak to a manager to get what I paid for. Very poor service. Hopefully this isn’t how you treat all ADA interactions. If you sell tickets to a blocked off section with seats, people are going to want what they pay extra for.
First time at the venue. Its easily in my top 5 spots in Nashville to hear music now. The capacity was great, the bartenders were good, and the crowd was awesome. I didnt have any food but Ill check it out another time. Definitely a great time and a great spot.Second set of pics was from July 2024 and the band was Hiatus Kaiyote. They were bad a*s! Ive seen them 4x now and this was the greatest show so far. Nothing like live music and this venue is awesome. 😎✌🏾
Venue is great! Saw Royal Blood and Bad Nerves as their opener. Lighting was mellow, staff were respectful and very aware.Dont expect to get reasonably priced alcohol here. Youll see beers normally sold elsewhere typically for 8 bucks, but here, the pint is 12. Id pregame at neighbors, especially during their happy hour. Theyre just around the block.
The wife and I went on a spontaneous last-minute trip 7/20/2023 for Slaughter To Prevail flying in from Texas. Hands down, one of the best concert venues and experiences we’ve had.We booked a VIP Box which even from a sales coordinator perspective was extremely thorough, and available, for the never-ending questions I asked ahead of our trip.Entry was welcoming, personal, and extremely professional.The venue is HUGE - far bigger than other reviews/photos led us to believe so want to stress that in particular.The venue was CLEAN - very polished, newer, with so many options. We came for a concert but the bowling, multiple bars, outdoor patio with baseball field view, multiple bathrooms, and levels was impressive.What put this place in our favorites, and honestly one of the few I’d note that is truly worth more than five stars was the professional staff and service. Our VIP Box team were awesome. Shout out to our server Jackie but particular shout out to Bowie who checked in with me throughout the evening, was friendly, accommodating, and you could tell actually cares and enjoys what he does. The food was also excellent with large portions and many selections. Of note was (again) the attentiveness from the staff who check on you frequently vs other venues that appear nice at the start, bring you one item than disappear for majority of the night.The show itself was awesome and we are still talking about how cool this place was but happy with experience.Needless to say, this place is absolutely worth it. While it may be a bit until we visit again, we will 100% be back.Thank you Bowie and team for a wonderful experience. Highly recommended!
This was our first time here, and what a unique spot for entertainment, bowling, food and bars. It’s kind of nice it’s not on Broadway, Germantown is better for driving and parking. We were in enamored by the uniqueness of the building structure and all the lights. The restaurant was cute but reservations only. Bar was first come. We got seats at the bar and the tables cleared out rather fast. It’s mostly lite food, fried chicken, tots, appetizers and desserts. I LOVED the couple of vegetarian items on the menu. We got the fried cauliflower, and the cauliflower tacos (picture below). They also had a tofu bowl that sounded good also. Happy to see this more and more around Nashville. Next, the bowling was really cool/retro-like. Mainly for big groups. Think huge comfy sofas. Reservations are a must. I liked that it was connected and overlooked the stage so you could enjoy whomever was playing that night. Good idea! The main floor stage area is all standing room with more bars and also offer pizza. VIP access is up the stairs with balcony seating on sofas overlooking the stage. Mind you, this is a small venue type stage, so you feel like you’re up front. Another bar is upstairs and flawless views of the entertainers. We saw Hunter Hayes, love him! It was a very nice venue, somewhat pricy for a large group, but nice for a date night.
Great venue! They have bowling lanes to the left side upstairs and a great stage very well lit, if you arrive earlier you can go right up the stage but there is also some general standing spots right in front on the deck, I went to see The Struts such an amazing show! the paid parking is expensive around the venue but is very close.
Great place to see a show! Sound is always top notch. Its general admission and there really isnt a bad spot to watch a band. I love the balcony views. Two big bars, 1 upstairs, 1 down.The bowling lanes look like fun, one of these times Im going to bowl.Pretty safe part of town as far as I can tell, I havent had any issues with parking. Staff has always been super friendly. 🤘
I’ve always liked this venue and been to many shows here. Good atmosphere and sound. My only new complaint is that I’m pretty sure drink prices recently skyrocketed to $15 draft beers and $19 cocktails. Feel like I’m at Bridgestone and it’s kind of disappointing. I expect to pay a little more at a bigger venue but come on now……
This is by far my favorite venu, ever. Whether you rent a lane and watch from there or are down in the crowd, up top on the balcony or wherever, theres not a bad place to be. Have seen two concerts there this month and hope to catch more.Highly recommend this venue. Its a lot of fun, designed with creativity and the venue is absolutely charming!
Oh my! We just loved the atmosphere people were all very kind and helpful it was our first time there. I cant wait to go again! I hope to be able to Bowl next time. The Concert Area is so nice Great Sound which I admit I was worried about just that. But it was awesome, and easy to move around the crowd. It was wonderfully clean, rest rooms stocked well and very clean. The Bar areas are so nice and they have amazing Drink lists also. So Yes they have our Vote. Thanks Brooklyn Bowl we shall meet again 😍💜💜 We seen Theory of a Deadman/Saint Asonia on 03-07-2023 Awesomeness 😍😍
We have been here twice, one to see Jinjer & once to see Band-Maid and this place has quickly become one of our favorite venues. The MGMT & Staff are top notch, we rented a lane and really enjoyed the food and drink packages ( a lot of great options), we always had a drink in our hand and the manager coordinated the food so well that nothing went to waste. The view from the lanes is surreal because you’re still part of the crowd, but you’re not getting touched by strangers in the process. We are renting another lane for Slaughter to Prevail in July. 10/10 would recommend.
Had a fantastic time at the Niko Moon concert. Did a Meet N Greet beforehand and did a VIP Box for the show. The VIP Box was an excellent experience. The service was fantastic by Noah and Kat. They were there for everything we needed. Food was excellent and drinks were cold. The VIP experience required a minimum $500 Food & Beverage, but with 6 or 8 people, its pretty easy to spend that much. Great venue!
Have been to BB a few times now. This is personally one of my favorite venues in Nashville. I have never actually been bowling here, only for music events. The bowling alleys do look nice though and have lounge style seats. Everyone I hear in the bowling side seems to enjoy it. You can also turn around from the alleys and see the stage for the concrets. So pretty cool concept. They also have a restaurant inside and when you open a tab you can go to either bar in the building and get drinks. They also have a private balcony above the stage and venue. I have only seen a few people up there so not sure how to gain access. As far as concerts go. Amazing! Great sound quality (which is key) and an amazing light show to go along. Standing room is good size and also has stairs in the back if you dont mind standing further away for a better view if you are vertically challenged like myself. I have been to 100+ venues in my time and this one is up there for the reasons I just mentioned.
Such a great atmosphere I am definitely retuning! I saw the Set It Off Deathless tour here! For the place to be packed, it was actually very well ventilated and even during jumping and dancing I could feel the air from the fan. The staff was also very nice and helpful!
I have been to two shows at the Brooklyn Bowl, both of which were great! In my experience, if you want to be front row, arrive 2-3 hours before doors open to line up outside the venue. One show I went to was in the summertime and some of the employees handed out waters to those who were waiting outside.The venue itself is essentially broken up into three distinct areas: concert venue, bowling alley, and bar/restaurant.
Nice venue, helpful staff. Food was good. Be prepared to pay for the parking which is pretty much true for any place in Nashville nowadays. Concert venue is standing only so be prepared for that. Limited seating is available for ADA issues
Ive managed entertainment venues and this place is the bomb! Atmosphere, great acts, best sounding room Ive heard in years! Cant wait to visit again. I live in Michigan and it was well worth the voyage.
Our first time in Tennesse so the Brooklyn Bowl was our first time seeing a live performance in Nashville! We saw The Tallest Man on Earth with Andrea Von Kampen as the opening act. The sound for both was spectular. The lighting cues and visuals are really seemless and not over the top.As quirkly as the venue is, we loved the size and how intimate it is. I am a short gal (52) so we stood in the back on the stairs so I could get a better view of the stage and it was perfect. I could see the performers clearly, from their movement to their facial expressions. The bowling seems to only happen before & during the opening act. It was charming hearing the strikes & cheers, and luckily it isnt too distracting from the show. Both performers used it as jokes for their set.If you have chance to see a gig here, I highly recommend it. Probably one of my top favorite venues now and I am from California.
Neat venue. We were in Nashville for a long weekend and just walked by and saw a concert happening that night.Saw it was Niko Moon and while we had heard of him, we werent familiar with much of his catalog.So we decided why not and we had a fantastic time.Niko Moon put on a great show. Great music with a ton of energy.Reasonably priced drinks. Great service.
What a night! This venue is committed to incredible experiences for its guests. The staff was in 100% hustle mode all night to ensure guests had their needs met. This space is safe, clean, and efficient in all they do. We enjoyed our concert, and we will be back!
Im not sure how the best venue in Nashville is inside of a retro bowling alley, but it is... Went to see parcels, one of my favorite bands and the place was absolutely electric. The crowd was super frothy and very excited to be there. Also. I was glad to be in good company and the people there were terrific. The people at the door were awesome. The bar wasnt that long of a wait. And the space is super cool and spacious where you have the shows.We will definitely be back to see more.
I loved this venue! Great sound, great atmosphere. Enjoyed the in house restaurant before showtime. Price for food was on point and delicious to boot. Booze wasnt horribly priced but definitely not cheap. Of course, since I no longer indulge alcohol consumption, this insight is only useful to those out there in the yonder! What did affect me was a $6 bottled water! Ouch! I can say that, I had a great time and would absolutely hit*em up again.
We had an event at Brooklyn bowl on a Tuesday evening for about 50 people. We received the best service - they were asking to get you a drink before you knew you needed one and the food was plentiful and received high reviews from a picky group. The team had a great time bowling. Crew was super nice and so accommodating. All and all, a great place to have an event! Would do another party there if I lived in Nashville.
Classic shoebox venue with 2 wrap around stories and an additional balcony. Bars on first and second floor with plenty of space. Security weren’t jerks either, we had great conversations with them before and after. Some concerts they allow bowling during the show per musicians request. We saw Tennis and Kate Bollinger.
Possibly the best way to watch a concert! Instead of standing in line, you can get some food at the restaurant or get the night started at the bar. Not a big fan of the bands but love live music, then listen while you bowl. They even offer a private lane reservation with bar tenders and food for groups of 8. It made a great gift for my friends and family.
One of the best venues in Nashville right now! We’ve been to multiple shows, on the floor level in GA , and it has been great! I look forward to going back and bowling at some point and I would like to see a show from the balcony.
I love this venue!!!!Me and my friends from across the US, Ireland and Canada went to see Noah Kahan and Blake Rose at the Brooklyn Bowl. At first, yes, I thought the bowling thing was weird. But you dont really notice it during the show itself. The staff here were beyond amazing. I honestly cant say enough nice things about security. I didnt even ask them and they got me a stool in ADA just in case I couldnt stand the whole show (I use a cane for mobility). This has never happened before at a show. Nashville has always been amazing in regards to ADA compliance.My friend tried the food and said it was really good. I also enjoyed the ciders we got while at the show.I will gladly return to a show at this venue. Check it out of you have the chance.The parking across the street was so convenient. $25 for 7 hrs.Bonus: It is residential so there was a constant stream of doggos walking by us as we stood in line. The venue even has dog biscuits on hand for their furry friends.
This place has such a cool concept. I havent actually bowled here, but Im assuming its awesome. As a venue, its one of my favorites in Nashville already. The sound is great, and you can get a good view of the acts pretty easily. Ive been to a couple of shows here and have not been disappointed. Most recently, I came to see Waka Flocka, and it was so much fun. I was glad to see how well the staff handled things when it got a bit more energetic. Id definitely be back.
I love Love LOVE coming to shows here. The food is great, Happy Hour is always a must 2 for 1’s, and the venue is laid out perfectly.I’ve seen bad reviews about the security guards on here but we have never had a bad experience with them. They have always been super helpful and friendly. Brooklyn Bowl has always treated us right! We will definitely be back for more shows.
Great venue for live music. Full menu with a good selection of food, an outdoor patio with a full bar, great service from all employees I interacted with. My only complaint was the parking across from the venue charged $30 and when I left, there was a parking violation on my vehicle for non payment with a $50 fine. Im in the process of trying to contact the company in charge of the lot to prove I paid for parking. Its not Brooklyn Bowls fault but I feel people need to be aware.
This is such a cool place. My wife and I saw Bob Dylan there and really enjoyed it. It is a very intimate space being so small. All of the staff we encountered were nice and friendly. We will definitely return.
Note I love this venue usually! I purchased 2 general admission tickets for over $500 total for standing floor to see Bob Dylan and we arrived on time though the venue either oversold floor space or let too many people in as we were unable to even stand in the venue to see and hear the show? We ended up in the hallway near the venue area entrance behind the sound board! We ended up leaving 4 songs in because there was nowhere to stand in the venue or walking way of the hall that wasn’t in the walking way heading into the venue area! We deserve a refund for this pretty disappointing experience.
Great smaller music venue. Excellent sound, and small enough that there really isnt a bad spot to stand downstairs. Upstairs has some (possibly VIP) seating and more standing room. Friendly bar staff.
Best sound after Basement East. Great mix and never muddy. Layout is weird, especially how the floor butts up against the bar. And the floor is closed off on one side. But one of the best venues in Nashville.
It was an extremely expensive venue. We felt like we were back in CA, which disappointed us.The show was amazing, but Id think twice before accepting their outrageous pricing before attending another show here.
Decent for a standing room only venue. Granted we arrived late, there was not enough room for everyone to watch comfortably, or even see the stage. I ended up standing upstairs and watching the TV next to the bar. Nice to have a bar to myself, though.
To the Brooklyn bowl for the Ville Valo show today. Was a great time! There was an amazing Icelandic group there for the openers. We got some awesome help from the staff on some issues we had as well and they were really helpful and quick to help us, get it, resolved in a timely manner before the show. Absolutely would recommend paying the extra for the owners box!! Will probably end up renting a lane for the next show. We go to here! Come early and enjoy the food too! Security is super nice, don’t forget your ID and they usually check your bag.
I saw girl in red here in early March and the show and venue did not disappoint, the venue is however definitely very new and has that feel too, will definitely be going to more shows here soon! Overall it was your typical concert venue where you could stand on the floor or go up onto the balcony to watch with a more tame environment, though potentially not the most accessible because I only saw stairs leading up. Also the background shown on the stage here was something the artist brought with them and is not part of the venue, I believe its the same for the lights that are to the right and left.
GREAT EXPERIENCE! What a cool place. Bowling, live music, and great food! Went to see Craig Morgan on a Wednesday night. Restaurant was easy to get seated at, food, service and atmosphere was great. Concert venue is intimate with no seats. Sound mixed well for the room, no openings acts to endure, right to the headliner. Tickets were only $20 each. Cool vibe going on at the Brooklyn Bowl in Nashville.
Hands down one of the best venues in all of Nashville! Brooklyn Bowl did not disappoint, you should absolutely buy your tickets now to be here! We met people from Canada, California, and right here in Nashville. We were blown away by how good the sound and lighting was. The bathrooms are clean. The venue is gorgeous. Buy. Your. Tickets. Now. Oh, and the food is delicious. Eat dinner here too.
My bf and I went during opening. Old Crow Medicine Show was playing. It was incredible. We got there a little late. The warm up band was playing and we planned on getting food. You can take your food out of the bar and eat while you watch the show. I went to order and they have a great selection. Since we were late I asked the bar tender if there would be enough time to get our order before OCMS came out. He was honest and said since it was opening night probably not. So I just got us a couple of delicious milkshakes because of not wanting to miss the show. I could see other orders coming out though and the food looked fabulous. We plan on going back and have already got tickets for a couple of shows. We plan on getting there in time to try the food next time. The venue is very unique. Its called Brooklyn Bowl because its also a bowling alley and I believe the owner is from Brooklyn. I also believe he owns other venues with the same name in other cities. I would think the first one was in Brooklyn although Ive never seen it any of the times Ive been to Brooklyn. I love Brooklyn so the next time Im there I plan on trying to find it. I highly recommend this venue to all.
I saw Theory of a Deadman and Saint Asonia at this venue. The venue itself is very nice. Its not very big but I dont mind that as the acoustics are amazing. It was an awesome show. We tried the restaurant upstairs. Neither of us were impressed with the food but I liked the fries. We both ordered burgers and there just wasnt much flavor. We had a great time
Overall, I would definitely recommend Brooklyn Bowl to those attending concerts there. I have no negatives to detract from this review. There was ample parking in adjacent pay here open lots. The bar(s) appeared to have a suitable array of offerings while not being too overpriced. The entry process did not take too long either, especially considering the addition of health screening along with the customary security and ticket checks. They have a sit down restaurant and bowling alley, both of which I did not utilize during this visit, but appeared to be a nice addition to the experience.
The acoustics were great, but the VIP section was oversold and too crowded. It kinda sucked to pay extra to not have a good view and still be packed like sardines. The drinks were also crazy expensive so I advise pregaming.
Went for Bob Dylan concert. The sound was awesome. Very crowded. Sometimes the crowd background noise was more like a bar ( including people verging on altercation) but at other times they shut up and enjoyed the music.
Cannot say enough great things about Brooklyn Bowl! It’s a restaurant meets rooftop bar meets concert venue and throw in bowling. I recently attended a concert here and the venue was absolutely perfect, intimate without being crowded and incredible sound. The rooftop bar overlooks the stadium, so no need to buy Sounds baseball tickets unless you’re a super fan and need to be on the field. Great view of the baseball action while enjoying good drinks and food. The place has a vintage carnival vibe that is everything…but the Zoltar machine is only an ATM so don’t be fooled by that one. One of my absolute favorite spots in Nashville. Top Germantown spot to bring friends and family.
This was a small upclose experience. We saw Ann Wilson of Heart. I loved everything about the concert. Food and drinks were a little expensive, but for the experience it was worth every dollar we spent. Would love to go back again. Not a bad place in the house as far as seeing a great concert. Highly recommend this place. Lots of fun.
A fun venue inside a bowling alley. We saw Saint Motel here. The staff are incredible and I enjoyed my conversations with them. The acoustics are great. It could use more seating, but other than that, no complaints.
Amazing concert venue!! I took my first trip to Nashville to see girl in red perform here and I would do it all again in a heartbeat. She was a great performer but the venue really made the experience excellent. Although the venue is located downtown, the roadway next to the entrance makes it very easy to drop off people and Lyfts/Ubers are very active in the area. The two areas for viewing (the pit and an upper balcony) had great views of the stage. Bathrooms were very clean and had enough stalls to accommodate a decent-sized crowd. The light show/sound system during the performance really got the crowd pumped up and the workers were very pleasant as well. A bartender thought I needed a bandage and offered to get me one from a first aid kit without me even asking! Overall, an amazing concert experience I dont think Ill be able to top anytime soon.
I attended the Bob Dylan concert last night (3/27/24) and this was my first time ever visiting Brooklyn Bowl. It may be the last time I visit as well. After eating dinner at the bar, I went upstairs to purchase a T-shirt. From there, I walked around the corner to the GA upstairs, standing room. No one ever mentioned anything to me about phones not being allowed. 30 minutes into the concert a very rude bouncer told me, “you’re done.” He then went on to speak to me rudely and it was very unnecessary. He kept saying, “oh you’re playing the, I didn’t know card” and then said, “you must be completely oblivious.” My boyfriend explained to them the route in which we entered, and that no one told us about phones. The bouncer responded to him angrily and in a condescending tone. We were completely shocked and we’ve never been spoken to that way at any event. I’ve been to many concerts where the artist will verbally explain no phones, or there will be signs posted. None of that was done here. If it had been, I would have been happy to follow those rules.
This place was awesome. The bowling seems interesting. The actual music area was pretty close. The band we saw kept setting off the smoke detectors, so that was fun. They and the crowd were all good sports aboot it, so it was still a great time.
Went to see a concert and although music was good don’t bother getting club seats. You are better off saving ur money as they over sell these tickets and there is nowhere to sit and you end up standing up against the rail so you can see band .
Amazing venue. Came for the food, bowling, and a show and it was all great. Very reasonable prices and a great experience. Servers and kitchen were very quick and the food was top notch.Concert hall has plenty of floor space for those that like to get up front and plenty of elevated places to sit or stand.
Very cool venue with good sound. Been to a show in the front and back and both sounded amazing!!! No water refill stations, but bartenders have water on tap.
Our grandpa died so my family decided they were going to try and cheer me up Tyler Hubbard was playing that night I had some great mixed drinks had some excellent food the service was great then I sat on the smokers deck and watched a baseball game and listened to Tyler Hubbard on through the speaker system they had and watched an amazing fireworks show after the baseball game was over by the end of the night I was in a better mood thanks to Brooklyn bowl it was an awesome place if you have not been here I recommend it highly
We LOVED this venue! You really can bowl while catching a great show. The place was spacious and didn’t seem to have a bad place to stand to watch the show. Bars and bathrooms on both floors are a great convenience, as well as food offerings. I also appreciated the temperature checks and vaccination requirements for now. It definitely allowed you to feel safe while enjoying live music in an indoor space.
Pretty meh venue, fire alarm kept going off shutting the bands music off and turning the house lights on. Floor layout isnt great and the upper level ceiling blocks the speakers on the stage which kills a lot of the sound if you are on the edges of the floor.
Cool spot with bowling alleys on both levels. We did a private event and enjoyed the live band after. Had the tater tots but didn’t try the other food.
Easy to find location. Love the setup. Food was amazing and reasonably priced. We saw The Bay Strikes Back tour there and was impressed with the setup. They have a handicap accessible ramp in the stage area. They also have a club level. Dont think there was a bad view in the place. Will definitely be back.
My friends and I went here for the Big KRIT concert. This is a large event area with four bar located upstairs, downstairs, and on the patio section. Food and drinks prices was a little steep, to avoid a long wait in line it’s better to pay with cash. The pricing for bowling and shoe rental was reasonable I think we spent $40 for an hour $3 shoe rental
Meh venue. After doors had been open for an hour for a concert, the line was still 3 blocks long. Just one person scanning tickets.Fire alarm in building kept going off and stopping the show was annoying. Dont understand people bowling in the middle of the concert, at times bowling lanes were louder than stage vocals.
👍Like this review if it helped you!👍Incredible venue, I have never seen anything like it! The lighting equipment is stellar, the rail is nice and hefty, and the entire facility is spotlessly clean! I am absolutely impressed and will definitely be back in the future. I was here on 8/3/21 for the Big Something show, and it was incredible!!👍Like this review if it helped you!👍
This is the perfect place to vibe and have a night out with friends or a concert location for artists. Bowling alley, concert stage, multiple bars, and much more. A gem in Nashville.
Deceitful ticketing about club level tickets, too expensive for VIP and theres no in-between.Also you cant see the stage at all for the extra money spent. Plus it stinks. Not BO stink like usual at concerts, but its like rotten food. We banked on this being an awesome Valentines day show with a little extra spent to sit during it, hopefully away from people since club level is limited but not only can you not sit in the extremely limited seating unless you arrive right when it opens, but you cannot see the show from anywhere else in the club level. Total rip-off! Club level for the show was definitely over sold for how much room actually exists up there.Edit: forgot to mention the horrendous parking situation!$30 for a short concert! Ridiculous!
Great venue friendly bartenders reasonable security and re-entry with metal detection generally a nice venue for shows and its got bowling I chose not but you could genuinely bowl while listening to a concert its kinda insane I love it
Was at a Starset concert and wasn’t allowed in because I didn’t have my ID yet children under the age of 16 were in there with no ID. Is what it is.Hazards- all exits were blocked, multiple false fire alarms went off (5+). Employees running full speed through the venue to address the multiple false fire alarms.Does the state of Tennessee nor Nashville have Fire Marshall’s? Do they do their jobs? Do I even have to say this is an unsafe environment? What’s going on in Nashville Tennessee?Other issues- the equipment for the bad kept shutting down. There would be sudden stops in the middle of songs due to equipment failures.
Went here for the first time over the weekend to see juvenile and had the time of my life! The venue was fun, clean and the bar service was great! Highly recommend attending one of their shows for an amazing experience!
I cannot say enough good things about this place!! I love it, and the staff is all star!! It is an honor to have Rich ( sorry it I got the name wrong) as our manger and his serving staff was also high end. Getting a bowling lane and table is the way to go. They took care of us, above and beyond. Thank you! Can’t wait to come back and enjoy another event here
I thought it was a great venue!! The outside view of the baseball field is pretty cool and all the bowling lanes is pretty cool!! Concert we saw cut out a few times!
One of my top 3 concert experiences ever! The venue was spotless clean and the staff top notch- friendly and on top of everything. We were nervous flying in to see our band at a “bowling alley” but the venue was perfect. We had a reserved lane which was fun while waiting for show to start and once it did we had the best view ever. We were so close it was truly amazing. Big shout out to Kat who kept the drinks flowing all night. Absolutely 5 star review, will definitely fly back again next time a band I follow plays there.
Really cool venue. Love the bowling and watching the show. Cool balcony area. Had a great time there recently.
Brooklyn Bowl is the absolute worst. This is the 4th time they have stolen money from me and my fiancé. We have paid our tabs and left then next day was charged an extra $60 to $150 after paying our tabs. This is the 4th time this has happened . I will never go to Brooklyn Bowl again.I’m so mad
Cool place for a concert, somewhat intimate for its size. We werent overly impressed with the beer selection but overall it is a neat place to see a concert. If you plan ahead, you can reserve a bowling lane for the concert of your choice and that would give you a nice view of the stage along with a place to sit.
Great place to see a show. Decent selection of beer, the bartenders know their business and the food is decent. You owe it to yourself to check it out
Has a fantastic time. Bowling is way to much, but the concert venue side of things was super fun
Great Place! Bowling, Food, Music, Bar and sometimes Baseball!We had a large party of 8 and had a great time bowling. The food was also excellent and they have a great selection of drinks as well. As you can see in the photo, the music venue is right by the bowling area. Upstairs is a nice deck where you can watch Nashville Sounds baseball!
Great shows. Great sound. Rude staff was unwilling to accommodate disabilities. A chair is not an unreasonable accommodation.
This may be the most well thought out venue Ive ever been to. The layout makes it really easy to find a spot to see the show, with the wrap around balcony providing some very VIP feeling views. The sound quality is beautiful, the lighting was amazing.The upstairs patio overlooks the Nashville Sounds Stadium, which made it an exceedingly cool spot to enjoy our drinks and they even had the sound board feeding to the speakers upstairs so you could enjoy the live audio even if you were out getting some fresh air!We didnt try the food, but everyone we spoke to highly recommended it, so that will be a must for next time.Will be coming back to Nashville for shows at this venue anytime we can!10/10
The best experience, we will definitely be back! We saw armor for sleep, Finch and Bayside. Love the old school shows 🖤🖤🖤
Waited on the floor for the band to come and sign our merch. Escorted off the floor and then not allowed to reenter when the band came out to meet fans, even though we had already bought merch and wanted it signed
I was there for a company event. The space is amazingly big for downtown. The service was great but the food was a little bland for my tastes. However the stuff churros were great@! Parking is a bit much, but it is downtown, so thats the price you pay. Overall its an ok spot to me.
Good small concert venue. $$$ concert venue priced drinks. Not sure I understand bowling during a concert but the lanes were full ( of others ) regardless
Great concert view Ive been there a few times it is a loving peaceful atmosphere.
Went for a concert. Lots of space. I wasnt expecting it to have an upstairs seating area, but it did. Drinks were, like any venue, a little pricey. Lighting was great. Staff was excellent.
One of my favorite venues in Nashville. Clean, nice set up, sound is good, and friendly staff. Love this place.This is the first time I have had food here. I recommend toning it down on the salt for the fries. Otherwise, okay meal for a venue.
Amazing venue. Really good food. Get the French bread pizza. Good drinks, fair prices.
This place is great! Their food is always good. Great place to see a show or watch a Sounds game
Ive been fortunate to see several shows at Brooklyn Bowl and it has quickly become one of my favorite concert venues in Nashville. Whether youre on a bowling lane, GA floor, or up on the second floor, there is really not a bad spot in the venue to see the show. The food is great and staff has always been super friendly. I follow their Instagram, so Im always in the know of upcoming shows and cant wait to go back for another concert!
I went to a Struggle Jennings concert at this place. It was the most amazing concert I have ever been to. The atmosphere was amazing. It was not overwhelming or majorly crowded. The whole place is so beautiful. The bar layout was easy to navigate and actually buy drinks! The bowling area was so nice under black lights. I will definitely go to another event here.
I went to see a concert here. Wasnt sure what to expect from this venue as Nashville has some amazing venues already. This is one was an amazing experience, hands down!! Great small venue. The customer service was impeccable and the staff had their stuff together. Everything from check out to the end went smooth. The venue itself design was beautiful and electic with Nashville vibes throughout. The concert was amazing and reminded me of Exit In but upscale version. Clean bathrooms. Loved the bowling alleys though I didnt bowl. Ill be back to check out the food and bowling soon. If you havent seen a concert here, I highly recommend to put this venue on your radar!
Hands down the best venue I’ve ever been to. The staff were so nice and happy to help. They were bringing water out on trays for the people camping and passed water to the pit during the show as well. I felt so safe at this venue! I can’t say that for some of the others I’ve been to. (This isn’t as important but I think it’s awesome so I’m going to share) when people would walk by with their dogs, their dogs would drag them to the venue door. Because the security guards had treats!! It was the cutest thing ever!! I will definitely be back
Went there for the Weyes Blood show. Cool venue with a feel all its own. Wherever youre at you can see the bands really well. Drinks were affordable and staff were great. Nice restaurant area to chill at before the show too. Will definitely be returning!
Great place to see a show up close and personal. Restaurant, bowling and bar is great.If you are going to a show if you need a seat make sure you get there EARLY... there are only a handful of seats and the are taken very quickly by people who obviously are healthy enough to stand... but now this is really a standing room only venue.Really my only issue is the no seating issue. They do not do a good job here accommodating people with a handicap. If they did... my review would be 5 stars.
The venue is very unique, the sound quality for the Valley concert was amazing, and I truly appreciated the layout of the standing room available.However I was not treated very kindly by bar staff. I was ignored for quite some time, and when I was acknowledged, it was in the form of a very terse, “Was there something you wanted or are you just standing there?”Regardless, it was an amazing show and venue, we certainly will return if another band we enjoy plays there.
Do not trust this places security. My boyfriend and I booked tickets to a Dogstar concert. We attempted to enter and the security would not let us go in due to an expired ID and one Valid ID. They with let underage child and mother go in but not us. We attempted to talk to them to let us through but the security team were rude. We attempted to show them a Valid ID to verify the expired ID and they refused. We showed them we had tickets to the concerts and we were refused. I sent them a message via Facebook to resolve the problem and no one has resolved this issue. This was going to be my first concert and i booked 6 month ahead.
Overall nice venue. Yes they have lanes but theyre expensive and more for ambience than serious bowling. Pretty good as a music venue, probably best as a dance club. Concert tickets on the pricey side so I rarely see live shows there.
I was informed by my sister that her boyfriend and her couldn’t get in for her concert. She paid around $450 six months ahead for her concert. One of the security that works there did not allow entrance after attempting to show prove of ID and DOB. She even try to sell her tickets there and they refused after not allowing them in with their tickets. As a business owner it is sad to hear that a business would allow 18 year old in but not a 28 year old with a military ID. I guess this is how you treat your military service. Unpatriotic.
Really cool atmosphere And the drinks were great. I think they might have been a bit too strong though, because the audience was very very drunk, and the bar area kind of amplifies noise through the venue, so all of the yelling people made for artists that were difficult to here at times. Overall still a cool place though!
