Great staff and vibe!! Even children are welcome here. Everyone was so friendly and helpful and the live music and catfish was awesome. I also loved the bon fire out front. The cover charge was $20 on the Sat night we went, but the musicians played an encore til a little after 10pm. Such fun!

This place is one of the Souths last remaining Juke Joints. Always a great time no matter whos playing. The people who run this place love music and it shows.

The 1st Sunday of the month from 3 until about 6 it is open mike. My children, ranging from 7 to 16, had gone with me to support a young friend of ours. He can shredd a guitar and play the blues. They do have regular scheduled artists Friday and Saturday nights. Go and give them some support as well.

I needed a break and decided to check out the Bradfordville Blues Club. It was just what I needed. The first Sunday Jam is worth checking out. Local talent is showcased. They are having their entertainment outside if the weather permits.Entertainment was AWESOME. I HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE!

Always a great time at The Bradfordsville Blues Club. If you want to see some great blues in a setting that will really enhance the music, this is the place. Usually a bonfire and fried catfish during the break on weekend shows.....A+

No where else in the world like this place! I found it 13 years ago when my daughters were students at FSU and I was immediately in LOVE!!! Its truly special, the history, the music, the atmosphere. Im here from Atlanta to see one of the last shows. My heart is happy to be back, but greatly saddened that this is the end 💔

So glad we found this place. A real hidden gem just outside Tallahassee. If it’s a bigger performer you may need to make reservations in advance. Luckily they had some barstools for us so we could hear the jams.

Review №13

One of the best nights of my life! Saw Brett Wellman and The Stonecold Blues Band on 8/13. They were absolutely stellar!! Just a warning as I had never been here before - beer and wine only, no food but they have a food truck that parks in front. The driveway is a little sketch but absolutely worth it to see such an amazing show! Will be back!

Review №14

Came her for the first time and had the BEST time! We called ahead and they were able to reserve 16 seats for my uncles birthday. It was an older crowd which was really great. Everyone was dancing and having a good time with no drama. Just an appreciation for good blues. They serve beer and wine and the drink prices are reasonable.

Review №15

Unique atmosphere! A hidden gem. Everyone must go here at least once. This is a fun place to go with a group of friends. They had a bonfire outside with a man that keeps it up all night. The fried catfish is wonderful! You must try it!

We were only in Tallahassee for a week & we are SO happy that we found the BBC!! Brian Santini & his band put on an EXCELLENT show! The staff & owners were very welcoming & Ms. Ernestine’s catfish was so tasty! Loved the atmosphere & the whole experience! Thank you!!

Review №17

Great music 🎶 (which I wish was not too loud otherwise it would be a 5 star), cozy and friendly atmosphere ... I did not try catfish but everyone there was saying it is great! There is a little wooden cottage at the back of the yard where a lovely lady cooks fried catfish, sausage and French fries. You’ll enjoy your time in this place!

It was a wonderful experience.I was so blessed to hear my brothers band play such awesome music and hearing Craig play his drums was a special treat. Having my 2 nephews there made the night even more a delight.

Great music! True icons of jazz and blues! All in an down to earth, friendly atmosphere. A true world class musial venue tucked away in our backyard, with a hometown background feel. Blues and jazz as it was meant to be.

Re
Review №21

Amazing vibe, great music, and fun environment. As soon as you pull onto the beaten path you know you are in for a treat. The staff were really friendly and we danced all night long to some great blues music. The bonfire and food outside were also a plus. Will be back for sure. Certified gem.

Review №22

Love the authenticity of this club. Good music, good people and good memories made. One of the few clubs left that understands that the musicians and their talents are the show. More importantly the musicians love being in this historic Blues Trail location.

Review №23

Some of the most memorable nights of my life have been here. This place has so much soul, I love all the people who work here. We are so lucky to have this historic blues club in our town. Get some fried catfish if you can.

Review №24

Get tickets way ahead of time, because this place fills up...and with good reason. You cant get a better atmosphere for blues, and the quality of the bands is always great because who wouldnt want to play here? In these walls Ive seen blue collar, white collar, straight up hippies, country bumpkins and city snobs alike...and I only went twice! Truly a one of a kind experience.

Review №25

Gorgeous setting of huge oak trees with gobs of Spanish moss hanging all around. Inside atmosphere is perfect...photos of musicians cover the walls and tabletops. Band is the BEST.!!! 21 Blue. Mid-evening bonfire outside with best catfish!!!. Most fun!!! Staff included in Best catehory. Loved this adventure.

First time her in years and I truly enjoyed it. Brought a guest visiting the U.S. and he had an experience he will remember for a long time. The small venue size makes it feel like a personalized experience with the musicians.

Review №33

I have been going here for years and my mom went back when it wasnt called the bradfordville blues club also, THE BEST LIVE MUSIC YOU WILL HEAR IN TALLAHASSEE, it gets pretty packed in so you should definitely call and get a table/reservation/tickets and you wont have to worry about losing your seats, the bar is small and theres not a lot of standing room but there is a nice spacious dance floor hint hint. Its only open on the weekends also. If you need a break and want some food just step past the bonfire pit to the shack in the back, the girls fry up the best catfish and mullet in the south! Have a seat by the fire and enjoy!!

One of Tallahassee Floridas best hidden gems. There is seating right in front of the stage to enjoy a drink and listen to the music. There is also plenty of room left to get up and dance.

Review №37

One of the warmest up close and personal blues clubs that Ive been to in years.Its like youve taken a step back in time where people went out to let their hair down and have a good time and its very private right in the middle of the neighborhood and you wouldnt even know it.All the people are very friendly and thats a special thing to find now a days.

Review №39

I happened to be staying in town on the way from Douglas, GA to a memorial service for a wonderful relative in Destin, FL. Looking for something to do, I found The Bradfordville Blues Club. I soon discovered that this place (The BBC) alone, is a reason enough to travel to from southeast GA to Tallahassee: Fantastic Place, People, Atmosphere and MUSIC! Its truly a hidden gem.

Review №40

Best Juke Joint!! Love Miss Ernestine s catfish, the music was on fire (Johnny Rawls headlined), and the outdoors venue was spot on!

Review №41

This is the real deal, when it comes to authentic juke joints. One of the few spots on the historic Mississippi Blues Trail still serving up smoking hot blues every weekend. Situated back in the woods underneath massive live oak trees, the BBC is a step back in time. Dont miss anoopportunity to experience the blue, as it was originally served up. Dont let those 4 star reviews fool you, they all had a blast! Come on out!

Da
Review №42

Bradfordville Blues Clubs is in the realm of special places that is timeless to the locals that know it. A concert or event at the BBC recalls speakeasy backwood revival of Florida past. And without old southern hangups.
