Really enjoy coming here. This was our 3rd time, having moved to North County (San Diego) a couple years back. The manager (owner?) was so gracious and welcoming... genuinely thanking the crowd not once but TWICE for coming; supporting not just the venue but the bands who play there as well. Getting into the show (with the lines, wristbands and ID checking) was well organized and smooth. Seating DOES get tight for a show (we saw Hollywood Knights-- their debut show!); but its not too bad. you can still chair-dance :-) or find a spot where youre not blocking others. The outdoor, wrap around, upscale rural patio is very spacious, with cute lighting, seating and heaters too. Great atmosphere to get out (if youre seated inside) for fresh air and a bit of dancing. Bartenders friendly, and staff roamed around all night to pick up empty glasses from the tables. Nice touch.. keeps the place looking tidy and makes for less work at the end of the night! All in all a fun place to go.. well be back.
Saw the Motels at OTBC, they were fantastic. We were sitting 5ft from Martha, I acted as her sommelier, handing/guarding her glass of wine between songs/sips.Band sounded great, played all the hits, and interaction with the fans was fun.Would love to see more bands of the Motels stature at the OTBC! That would help put the OTBC on the radar of more folks.
Nice looking place. Great staff. This venue does have a stage for performances and a dance floor. This place does not serve food but they will let you bring in food from any local food trucks. The bar only has beer and wine. They do not serve any signature cocktails. The band I saw was great they played all night and only took three breaks. The live music starts at 8:30 every night.
Andy is awesome owner and place is fun. His bar is expanding in size in about 2 months. At that time, hell start adding additional entertainment. Tuesdays in few months will have variety comedy nights featuring Hawaiian shirt hypnotist comedy with age 21+ adult comedy show. Keep an eye out for exact dates on Old town Blues club.
Theres usually a cover charge. They dont serve hard liquor
When I had front n expressed I couldn’t stand they said they were could not accommodate when I needed a chair
We saw Major Dudes cover band for Steely Dan and they were awesome! OTBC is a great place to relax, listen and enjoy live cover bands.
I watched a band here and it was good, but the event entry process lacked organization and was not well marked... And...the drinks were either beer or wine only - I wasnt aware prior. Outside of that, the owner and stagf were great, checking in with customers beyond the bar and ensuring everyone was able to enjoy themselves.
Very chill atmosphere. Good lil place to go enjoy a drink and some good music
Love this place! On the weekends there is usually a wait to get in—if you get there after 8:30—and a small cover charge (probably to help the keep the crowds down), but it’s definitely worth it! The music is fantastic, the bar has a lot of options, and the bartenders are really nice. When it’s busy, there aren’t a whole lot of places to sit inside, but that’s because they need some open space for dancing! There is usually a lot of space to sit out on the patio and there are TV screens streaming the band from inside. It’s perfect! If you like blues, dancing, and good drinks, this is the place for you!
We had an amazing time there. We liked the people and everybody was friendly. The only reason we gave it a four-star was it doesn’t have a full bar.
Went here after 1909, up the street. I really liked the band. The drinks were good also. Fun entertaining environment.
As a music venue, it was good. But not so good for dancing to that music. I did not feel welcome by the people working there.
Great live music club. It only cost $10 and I saw the Lizard Kings, a Doors tribute band last Sunday and they were great. The club was comfortably filled with people who were seated at tables and the outdoor seating too. They serve reasonably priced beer and wine and the atmosphere was great! That was one funky cool blues club. I will definitely go back.
Great place to meet friends & have good times. Staff very friendly. Youll feel right at home. Life Time Rocker band is awesome! Make a point to see these talented guys!
Ive come here a handful of times and every time has been a great experience! Theyve expanded the place and it looks AMAZING! More room to dance - more room in general. Thank you for keeping live music, especially blues alive!!!!!I love this place and it should get 5 starts but... music is SO loud that I barely can stand the music volume while seating on the front patio!!
We went on the Saturday night before the 4thand there was a live band playing. It was loud, crowded and lots of fun. My group pretty much hung out on the front patio and enjoyed the music. Great beer selection fun atmosphere. My friends and I had a good time. The front patio was a great place for us to chat, catch up and drink some good beer. It also made for some excellent people watching!
Old Town Blues Club is such a magical, musical place. Live music all the time, dancing until your exhausted, and just all around fun! Come and meet new friends and listen to some of the best live music on the planet.
Live music band was fun! Cool patrons. I got a sabe vodka grapefruit cocktail 😋! Very cool environment and 😎. Only wish they had Gin but hey, I got me a high 5 from an unknown female person! Woo-hoo, I shall be back!
Fun, friendly ambience, bartenders really nice and drinks were delictable. Band on Saturday night 3/23 was Awesome! ..and not just because they sang and got the whole place to sing Happy Birthday to me, that was extra treat! I recommend visiting for a great time!
This place had a great vibe. This is not a nightclub. The crowd is older. The band was killing it and everyone was having a great time. Only beer and wine here, so just keep that in mind. Outdoor patio is smoke friendly if you want to light a cigar. Everyone in my group enjoyed it, as usual. Well be back.
Its hard now days to find a bar setting with live band music. This is the place to visit in door and out door sitting. If like blues live band music this is the place to visit. We arrived at 6pm, sat outside on the balcony enjoying the music and didnt leave until 11pm. I would highly recommend this place, enjoy and have fun.
No contact, no attendance. I really have a problem with companies who think they can run a business with a voicemail and a website. I live 20 miles away and Id kind of like to know whos playing, what type of music, are you open, are there any special engagements, do I need a reservation, whats the cover charge??. With no human contact you dont get the business. Ill probably never come there until someone answers the phone.
Great venue! Our 1st time there and we will definitely be watching the calendar for other shows!
Once they knock down the wall, Ill rate it 5 Star...its a FUN place, and popular, just too small! Im happy to hear they are expanding!Update: The expansion is excellent! Especially enjoying outside porch area during these warm summer nights! Always great bands playing and always friendly bar tenders! 5 stars!
Great place! Always high quality live music. The owner of the place, Andy, is terrific. Cant wait for the expansion area to open. Friendly crowd. The bar and security staff is top notch. They remember regulars names and drink preferences. Treat you like friends and family!
Weve enjoyed coming here for a number of years and have never had this experience until the last few months. It would be a 5 star, but weve been turned away 3 times and told to come back later due to a special event! We never have gone back and not happy about being turned away. Also, they want to charge us the same amount as the special event reservation if and when we do return. Suggestion...have different wrist bands for the people who didnt preorder tickets and let them in at the same time for outside seating.
Great Blues Band Saturday 4:30 - 7:30. Other live bands after with classic rock until 11:30 p.m. Very busy and fun location. They have a bar too.
Still Needs liquor full bar.Has an enlarged indoor area that has doubled space. There is a bigger, longer porch and a new side patio venue that was host to ad hoc concerts during the last few weeks of the close down.It is still very popular.GREAT place
I have been to Old Town Blues Club on many occasions. The staff is friendly, the venue is clean and the live entertainment never fails to please. The only negative issue is the size. When a great band is playing, the place is packed and it can be hard to get around. Otherwise, I highly recommend this business.
We used to live in Ireland and we love Ireland. It is a nice little Irish escape in Temecula! We were lucky as there was a live band playing Irish songs when we visited. It just felt awesome and the atmosphere was super friendly. The only thing that i didnt like was the smell of cigars as people were smoking right outside. But whatever, it seems like a great place!
Great live music. They only serve beer and wine
Awesome place to listen to music in old town Temecula. The band was great playing cover songs that were everyones favorites. Nice friendly atmosphere. Only wish that they had more/different beer.
Went here on my birthday with my girlfriend on a saturday night, they had a good band that night and we had good time. Was no cover. We didnt drink much, we were already wrecked. We felt more at home here being in our 50s......had older crowd then most of the trendier places to go on front st
Went there tonight - february 29. Bad Chemistry - was just that: bad! The vocalist has a good voice, performance was good, but guys, if nobody dances by the 5th dance, get the hint and switch up your repertoire. This was just banging on the instruments. Definitely not dance music. I had a friend visit from out of town. We finally left after half an hour. It was pretty bad. If you can’t pay attention to your audience, maybe it’s time to stop playing. The blues club needs to get B.I.G. on that stage. Best band ever, and guaranteed everybody will be dancing!Just got a response back from the owner! Thank you! Kudos to you for reading the review and responding.Let me clarify: I love the place!! The three stars were for the music the band was playing. I think the singer was awesome and so was the band, but the selection of their songs weren’t! For as long as we were there, only one song was danced to. I actually asked for Andy (?). I was told he is the one who schedules the bands, but Andy was gone.No offense to either the club or the band. Simply the music was, in my opinion and my friend’s not suited to dance to. Maybe after we left they realized they needed to change their ‘tune.’Five stars for blues club, still three for band. sorry! 😏
What a great venue! I love how the outside patio area wraps around along the building and overlooks the main street and sidewalk. I will definitely be back to listen to more of that great music!
We had a great time! Great service and the band (Stevie Nicks illusion) was spot on awesome band, awesome night out with my beautiful wife.
Great night! Saw Fuzzy and Groove Squad. Im glad Andy put the dance floor in the back.
Had a great time with 2 others great music lively crowd enjoyed the entertainment and beverages.
Great atmosphere and people. But parking has increased. $26+ for 5 hours; $33 for 8 hours. Street parking is free but scarce.
Live Blues from the best local talent. Wine and beer bar small space for dancing. Andy is the owner and a great host. Whats not to like?
Always a pleasure great atmosphere better music. Its a great place to have a lazy day with live music
A really good place to go listen to some jazz local players
I was walking around on a Sunday afternoon, heard some good blues music from across the street, had to check it out. Stopped for a beer and didnt want to leave. This place is very welcoming and friendly. The music was fantastic. Cant wait to go back.
Very divey, this is not necessarily a bad thing. The band playing tonight was off the chain good! Grabbed a decent bottle of Chardonnay from the bar, so again, not the diviest of dive bars. Big thumbs up for No cover charge on a Saturday night
Had a great time, nice atmosphere, Definitely will be returning to this atmosphere
Spent a couple of evenings here. First was a Rod Stewart tribute band “All About Maggie”. These guys put their all into the show and it was great fun.Second was a trio playing 50’s rock and roll. Also a great night.
Great bar. Live music. Great crowd.Chatted with the regulars. Bartenders were really friendly. Security staff in front was professional. There was a little wait to get in but worth it.
Not full bar. They allow it to be too packed.
Love the Blues Club. A place for us older crowd hanging out without having to put up with youngsters bar music.While most bands are good, the Sundays afternoon bands are most excellent; I deduct 1 star for some bad groups, especially Sat nights. Oh boy, did they even play off key and irritating.
Crowded place...small..old town pub..good music.. outdoor seating and bathroom s
Pretty cool venue and some top notch acts.... The bartenders are a little slow and need to be a bit more attentive . No need to have two bartenders on the same end of the bar. Kinda frustrating trying to get their attention especially when there is four or more Bar Backs and other staff behind the bar and right in front of a growing line of other thirsty patrons yet they are unable to fetch you a drink, or the other Bartender for that fact!?! Ok, I am knit pickin, as this can happen anywhere.Otherwise, this is a really great entertaining and fun place with great atmosphere and some excellent bands.Generally it appears that the nightlife is everywhere in Old Town Temecula. Who woulda ever thought? Old Town Blues Club is caught up in the middle of all of it! A real fine party town!Just mind yourself because Riverside Sheriff makes a big presence up and down the main street of Old Town all night long. DONT BE A BLOW IT AND YOU WILL BE OK! HAVE FUN!
GREAT PLACE! Has a ‘Cheers’ feel to it where everybody knows your name. 1st time there, owner came and introduced himself saying it’s always great to make new friends. Live bands on most weekend nights.
All I can say is WOW! Had such a great time here. The live band was amazing and great vibes. Great place to bring a date
The live music tonight was one of the best I have ever seen play! Cant wait to come back! Great crowd, great atmosphere! A definite must!
The favorite spot for music in Old Town Temecula. A relaxed environment with a variety of bands. On weekends enjoy 2 bands, one starting at 9pm and another band starting earlier. No food is served here its bar only so eat before you get there. OTBC does serve a variety of beer and has a nice wine selection. The OTBC was recently renovated with expanded outdoor seating. This is our favorite place for music in Old Town and the music never disappoints.
Live music and dancing are ingredients for a longer life. Enjoyable experience.
Energetic Venue with an Appreciative Owner!While attending a conference we slipped away to see Viva Halen. The band was fun but what caught my attention was the owner. He came by and personally thanked us for coming (even took a selfie with us LOL). He also ran around the bar making sure all glasses and bottles were picked up and tables wiped down, always with a proud smile on his face. The rest of the staff was also very friendly and helpful!Next time we are in town we will come back!
Always a good time Friday And Saturday nights. Fun atmosphere, good entertainment. Live music and dancing. The people behind the bar are friendly. Good crowd after 9 pm.
Attended the Outlaw Mariachi show last night Great time. This band is a weekend crowd pleaser. Bring them back!
Its ok... They definitely have good beer on draft & variety. Older crowd and Im in my late 30s.. So that makes some people there in mid 40s or 50s. Lol
This is the former Front Street Union in old town Temecula - under new ownership and new name. One of the best locations in Old Town, this is a small really fun bar with two great attributes - a cool deck overlooking Front Street, and always great live entertainment - fun bands on the weekends. So far the new ownership has kept everything except the name pretty much the same. So go check it out!
This is the best place to see live music in Temecula. Im so glad we have a local place where we can see great blues guitarists! Venue has TVs out on the patio so you can even see the band if you are chilling outside. Also, no other place in Temecula that I know of provides a professional PA system for bands to use. Ive been to about 4 shows there in the past 6 months and the sound quality is always top notch.
Great music. Awesome location on street for viewing. And can smoke a good cigar on side patio and still watch band on TV.
Recently, I best time when I saw the Lauri Morvan band perform, they had a lot of energy, great attitude & wonderful voices, too! Plus, the service was good & Ill definitely be returning!
Saw Darling Greatly there with some friends. Great venue!
Great place for awesome bands! Fun date night! Great atmosphere!!Dave and I love our date nights here!!!
We went to see daring greatly here. The vibe in the club was great! If we are ever in the area again we will definitely be back.
This is a great blues club! Saw Laurie Morvan on Fathers Day afternoon and she killed it!! Be sure to look up the schedule and visit soon.
Music is usually pretty good here. Just know that its basically a bar and not very clean. Nice for hanging out with friends after dinner. Small dance floor.
Very nice atmosphere. Friendly staff and some great music. I didnt try their food I just had a drink which was good.
This place is a lot of fun! Great place for really good music. They offer food on Sunday’s. Staff is friendly.
Went on a Sunday afternoon. So much fun. Great music, service and vibe. Cant wait to go back!
An incredibly cool place to enjoy world-quality live blues and rock.
Fabulous place for great live music, we had a wonderful time dancing, good music, great people, good wine, loved every minute of it
Really Great Club. All kinds of bands. 21+ club. Fun atmosphere!
Friendly comfortable atmosphere with good music
Great pub and atmosphere, drinks were definitely pour right and the Rocka billy Trio was over the top. Our group had a blast all night.
The place looks great. They remodeled and have tons of room and a better flow now. Very friendly and great music and staff
Otbc is the best spot for live music in old town. Good selection of beer, wine and spirits. Nice outdoor seating with a great view.
AMAZING!! Tad Robinson & Chris Vitarello were THE BOMB!!! Thanks so much to Andy the OWNER/PROPRIETOR of OTBC!! Well be back weekend of the 28th of June & this time, well have some ladies to dance with!😎
First night out of lockdown. Had a great time. Music was great. Staff was very attentive. Food was good. Well definitely go again.
Love this place everyone was really nice. Live band was great! Will be back next month to see him again
Excellent time at OTBC Great customer service and awesome band. Will be back most definitely. Keep up the good work🤙🏼
Great environment, they had a live band tonight, Those Guys, and they rocked!!! Such a great night!
Pub atmosphere, clean with good customer service. Music was good which added to the ambience of Old town. Good place to hang out with friends.
One would be hard pressed to find a better live music venue in southern California. A very intimate, friendly and fun experience that brings me back time after time.
Good music and drinks
If you want good quality live music in an intimate setting, this is a great place to visit. One of the places you must come to see if you are in Old Town Temecula.
Parking is headquartered out of New Orleans, and they will fine you, even if you follow procedure. Park on the streets of possible.
Live music all the time and just for only 5 bucks. Friday nights is ladies night no cover charge.
Errm, I think I died and went to heaven (at least I think I did - they seem to wipe your memory with alcohol before you leave)! Ive decided to adopt this place as my local despite living over 5,000 miles away. Nuf said...
Take into account of course it is a dive bar and not upscale looking. But the band was excellent and the bartenders were friendly. Recommended
Lucky Stone Irish Pub in Old Town Temecula is the best place to party! Saturday night, The Other Guys rocked the house... Great times!
Fun Times at Live Band Karaoke with Lifetime Rocker! Looking forward to the next time! Woohoo! 😊🎤🎶
A nice cozy Irish theme bar with live music on regular basis, located on elevated sidewalk overlooking the main Old Town Temecula drag.
Band that played on Saturday was terrible, Blink 182 covers seriously? Me and my friends drove all the way out here to listen to BLUES MUSIC.
Awesome live bluesy music. Met the owner - great guy. Met the manager - great gal. Great time.
One of my favs in the Temecula area!! Lea, Jill, and Alissa bartenders are the bomb! Actually, I enjoy the entire staff! Great people!!
Great bands...fun atmosphere. Small venue up close and personal. Love it here
Loved this pub. Great atmosphere. Had a live band. I will definitely be coming back regularly.
Weve been here a few times. Really love blues and the new setup is great. Just wish we were a bit closer!
We enjoyed our time with family and friends celebrating our Sons 45th birthday!!! Music was very enjoyable!

Great little bar, good music. Be sure to let your hair down and laissez le bon temps rouler.
Becoming a regular stop on weekend trip, always has good live music to rock out to after an afternoon of wine tasting.
2 bands played. The crowd was polite, orderly, covid conscience. $5 cover charge=no problem.
Great place to have fun. The entertainment was great.
They have fabulous live music and great craft beers! Great place to spend a couple hours.
Best LIVE music in Temecula. This is a MUST stop for all music lovers. Great beer and wine variety as well
Small place, great live music, special drinksStaff makes u feel welcome
Brings me back to being a carefree child with the benefit of being an adult. Grab a princess peach and a quick game of mortol combat, while listing to the dj spin some tunes. Cant go wrong.
Love this place! Worth the drive from LA. Great music and staff! Thx for the great time Andy!
Small place. Seems like the spot tho. Lots of happy people after 10pm. To bad the dance floor wasnt bigger.
Great spot for live music, very friendly staff and a really fun atmosphere.

Good music, bar fights, and ok beer(little expencive) thus the 4 star but a good place. Right next to a real tabacco shop.
The owner is always friendly and welcoming. Recommend trying their pink grapefruit wine vodka!
Great fun, great music, great dancing but no hard liquor 😕.
If your into good blues and chill music, this is the place. Drinks are the best. Seating accommodations are ok.
Great vibe friendly staff, new name is the Old Town Blues Club great live music always. Go check in out 😎
If you want to hear strictly the blues. Dont go there. Also no hard alcohol.
This place is absolutely AMAZING! Such a gem in Temecula! Such a diverse crowd and SO much love!!
Great place to meet new friends while waiting for the Christmas parade to start!
It was really nice that they expanded but now they moved the bar and closed the space in more again! Hmmmmm. The flow us bad.
Great drink prices and awesome service. Good place to catch great live music

Good bands! rather small not much room inside. Small bar, Small front decking helps.
Great atmosphere and musical entertainment with s wide variety of craft beer on tap.
What an amazing find. Bartender was awesome, the small venue was awesome, and live blues music in temecula in an unsuspecting bar? Awesome!
Great bar and band, friendly atmosphere and service.
This was my first time, now I know why the place was always crowded b4 I ever went. Staff was friendly, courteous ...
Not great. Should not be a cover charge mid-week for music
Great place for live music! Fun crowd and friendly service.
Great music and atmosphere!
Great music, but drink prices are a bit high!
Great little stop in old town Temecula...service is right on point for a small place that gets packed, fun atmosphere with bands!!
Cool place, live music . Need to serve liquor and need more chairs.

Always a great time. The band was awesome.
Fun place, a little small but the bands are always good.
Live bands,but not good drink deals or drinks. Totally older crowd vibe
Great blues bar, nice owner. Be careful, the senior ladies are single and ready to mingle/molest.
Great place for live entertainment the best of the valley has to offer and then some! 🤘🎸🎶
Great bands and fun dancing. Mostly beer and wine. Bartender was mediocre.
Good people. Great owner. Thank you for the hospitality. Enjoyed playing there.
Great club! Perfect live music and nice, friendly people.
