Small, Intimate, New, Fresh....and they've had big names...very big names, and locals. Not to mention, I know a person that knows a person. I love this venue, it's like a 5th home.
Brian StraussDecember 27, 2014Excellent party and intimate live music space. Multi cultural Oaktown crowd. Three bars and nice central courtyard for chillin'.
Favorite Oakland small live music venue. I always have a great time here. They book great music acts. Highly recommend this venue.
Pacific UnionSeptember 4, 2013Best music venue in the East Bay! An intimate space with a hugely diverse lineup of performers. Music runs the gamut,from reggae to hip hop to brass bands to funk to dancehall. Read more
Mrs FunktafiedNovember 17, 2014This is one of the few spots in Oakland that has an outdoor area that doesn't make you feel separated from the actual event. Great space, great area, good vibes.- Barbara StephensonNovember 3, 2021Hands down the best place to see a band in the bay area. Small, two levels, full bar, more than a single stall on the women's side.
Aaron WynnJuly 3, 2019Great selection of shows but all I have attended started almost 4 hours after doors. Come much later compared to other venues when seeing stuff here.- Maja PetkovicOctober 17, 2014Awesome place! Great music, cool garden patio where you can smoke, funky art and burning men crowd. Place to be on Wednesday!
AMINovember 28, 2011Oakland! R&B vocalist José James continues his West Coast tour at The New Parish 12/9/11 at 10pm! You won't want to miss this one! Give us a shout (@AMIagency) when you check in!
Maddie MaeMarch 16, 2016If you're coming for a show, they're always at least 30 mins late opening doors. Come prepared to wait.
This great music venue is totally intimate and reminds me a lot of the Jazz Cafe in London.
Do yourself a favor and eat (and drink) at Hibiscus next door. It's DELISH!
carla borsoiJune 16, 2013$3 Tecate and a pay phone in the women's restroom. $15 min on credit cards.- Follow their Twitter feed for last minute tickets and surprise shows.
Colleen MAugust 20, 2012$18 for a double bourbon neat? $5 for a tiny plastic cup of beer? Tempted to bring a flask, FFS.- Treat the door-girl/security nice...or they'll leave you waiting outside.
Be sure to check out the balcony viewing for a show. Best second-level view in the Bay Area.
Max KMay 11, 2019Horrible line management. Had to wait in line for 30 minutes to get my ID checked and ticket scanned because they only had one person working on each.
