Bogarts is in a great location, with easy parking. You can arrive early and eat at one of many options nearby or go out after the show to a smaller section. Staff is friendly, and even with COVID protocols they try to make the process smooth and fast as possible. Good size drink selection.

Always loved this venue, It had been a couple years since I had been, and its even better now. It is an AMAZING small venue that you can get super close you your favorite artists. Always easy entry, very well structured, even with the covid stuff. Easy peasy!

The venue is basic... Honestly Ive been here a few times for the same band, probably over rating it based on bias for the band. There is a balcony section with seating and a few bar sections for seating. All the times I went, I was in the standing section just because I wanted up close and personal. The location is tough for parking if you dont get in early, or want to walk a few blocks. Its in the outskirts of Cincinnati which means not the cleanest area, but again, youre there for the band.

Been coming here for years. We saw senses fail, bayside and Hawthorne heights last Tuesday. Im firstly salty because both my fiancé and I are vaccinated with our cards in hand but were both required to pay $25 each for rapid tests on site because our second shots werent two weeks prior.Also, the sound guy butchered the vocals the entire night.Disappointed

First time at Bogarts! Drove two hours from Indianapolis and did not regret a second of it. The venue itself is very nice. Sound was excellent, as was their security team. Ice Nine Kills sold out the venue, and despite there being 1,400 people in the venue, it still didnt feel crowded. We will definitely come back!

We had an appointment scheduled at 10 am. That is what we were told on the phone. It took over a week to even book an appointment. Upon arriving the lady at the counter said sorry you were scheduled at 8am. No one called when we didnt make it to the 8am appt even though we were told 10am. She then accused me of just not writing the appt down correctly and didnt even offer a a solution. Just an Im sorry maybe you can book an appt another time. When I asked if there was a manager available she said thats me. Horrible customer service. We will not be back here.

We had a lot of fun tonight at Bogarts tonight watching that Arena rRock Show and Staci Michaelz & the Electric Congregation! I am mobility challenged, but the staff at Bogarts is so polite, respectful and helpful. Shout out to Meg, and Rachel, and another sweet gal, tho her name escapes me, currently. The show was so much fun and I love it that it was a family friendly one too. We really enjoyed ourselves this evening! Kudos to all!

Was there Thursday the 25 for a concert and everything was very easy to find. The concert was no re entry but for us smokers they had a patio where we could go outside and smoke and go back to the show. Very amazing place and great parking.

Decent alcohol prices for a live event venue. Highly recommend the peanut butter whiskey. Womens restroom was fairly clean although one toilet was clogged/broken. Rest of venue was clean and security personnel immediately dealt with drunk rowdy concert goers.

Bogarts is a glamourus live music concert experience. The theater is huge with a gigantic dance floor in front of the professional size stage. There are three floor levels with low to high vip seating availability.

This is a great concert venue. Very clean, friendly staff, and good beer. There were some issues with the sound for the opening band, but things seemed to eventually get figured out.

Love this venue! Its very nice after all the upgrades these past few years. Ive probably seen 20 or more shows at bogarts. The smoking area out back is nice. Excellent sound quality since they upgraded the speakers. Theres not a bad spot in the house the stage is just the right height. And they have multiple bars so not much wait time.

Review №41

My first experience there was to see Jordan Davis. It is the perfect venue for a small show. Wasnt overly crowded. All the general admission tickets are standing room only but there are tables available at extra cost, prices vary depending on where you want to sit. You can reserve your table and parking in advance so you dont have to fight for parking. Drinks are reasonably priced and every employee I encountered was very nice and helpful. They also have complementary ear plugs available at the bar. Had a wonderful experience!

This is a really awesome venue with cheap drinks gatorade and water was $3. Lots of cool artwork on the walls of bands and artists that have previously performed there. I dont think they have a parking lot or garage so be prepared to walk or uber. We walked from our hotel off McMillan. Bathrooms and smoking area is in the basement. I didnt check that part out.

My first time at Bogarts I had a blast. I was there for the Raw natural born artist show titled reflect this past March. It was my first time doing a fashion show outside of my University. All the stuff that was working that night was phenomenal. What I dont like about the venue is how small the rooms are in the backstage area. I do think that someone needs to rethink the design of that but other than that no complaints. By the way I am a designer and my business is Elizabeth Jr LLC Im on Facebook and Instagram @elizabeth_jr_🌿

We had tickets and werent sure how to put them on our phone and dont people there at the front were not very helpful at all they could have got us in and we ended up staying in there for an hour before we even got in and they knew we had tickets so Id say Id give them two stars if that

Venue staff was quick getting people inside, drink prices were fairly reasonable with a good selection. They had local beers on tap and a full bar. The floor wasn’t too crowded and there was room to move around. Bathrooms are located under the stage so it takes some navigating to get there. The view of the stage is pretty good, but the acoustic are quite terrible, don’t plan on hearing much else but the instruments.

Great place to catch a show if you like an intimate feel! Theres not much seating unless youre willing to pay for the VIP, but I dont care about that. The concert floor has plenty of space, theres four bars with great selection, and the acoustics are awesome.

Nice small venue but be careful if you drive to this location. I attended a concert that was still going strong at midnight and my car was towed because I was still parked after midnight. Parking is not great here. Also, eat before you go, they will not allow you to leave the venue for food once you walk in the front door and they do not serve food. I really wish I could give a music venue better ratings but Im not impressed.
