Love the speakeasy vibes of this place. Reminds me of the gaslight cafe in greenwich village back in the 1960s. Super chill. Good wine selection too.
Great little spot to catch local original acts. Awesome vibe, unique menu and tasty handcrafted food (loved the chili mac and cheese).
We flew in from Colorado for the Peter Stampfel show. It was small but inviting. I would call it intimate, as we felt as if we were all friends out together, and everyone was very friendly. The staff had excellent customer service skills that seemed natural and not expected. They were as friendly, accommodating on the phone as in person. We came for the show, and we left with a fantastic impression of the Orbit Room. Bless you all for a wonderful time!
Always a great time at the Orbit Room! There's always something interesting going on and the hot dogs are phenomenal! Also, PINBALL.
Had an amazing time there got to see a lot of great friends who haven't seen in many years and will definitely be come. Come back again. Keep up the great work!!
Had a great time at Laid Back Country Picker. Distinctive food and decorations. Enjoyable venue. Very accommodating staff.
Jazz music was fantastic! Service a bit slow, but they were packed. Hot dogs were amazing! Great balance of flavors. Drink options were top-notch. All around, a great experience.
Stopped by for the Cosmic Songwriter's Festival and really enjoyed it. What a great recurring event! Very cool that Badknees has a sticker machine here.
Had a blast at the Daniel Villareal show on 9/10/25. A great venue to see a band - intimate and cozy with great sound and easy access to drinks, food and the bathroom. Staff is great and the food and drink options were great. Cool bathrooms, too!
I went to Bloomington just because this place was open late and was very highly rated. This is the best food I've had on my trip. They have vegan and a few non vegan options. Lots of good beers and wines to pick from. Highly recommend - the ratings are legit and I'm not even a practicing vegan. They are downstairs below street level, but do have tables and waiters covering them at street level.
