Turf Club - Saint Paul

I saw a show here for the first time yesterday evening. This is a really spacious venue with lots of high tables and seats at the bar. I recommend getting here as early as possible preferably as soon as the doors open because the seats and tables can fill up quickly. It was also ventilated enough where it wasn't too cold or too warm, and the sweater I brought with me was not needed. They have a decent food menu and lots of beers on tap with non alcoholic options. I stayed on the main floor and didn't go downstairs, so I can't speak for what is down there, but the bar area had a water refill station near the front door for customers to use. The bathrooms were also really clean. Overall I really enjoyed the show and I would definitely see another at this venue.

This small venue has a great vibe. Just saw a great lineup of local musicians paying tribute to Bob Dylan on his 81st birthday. There a bar for starters and they serve your beer in a an actual glass instead of a plastic cup. Clean bathroom. There were high top tables one could reserve, but there was plenty of room to stand near the stage and enjoy the show. The band backing up the different performers was excellent. The rotation of micro sets kept the sound guy hopping and we watched as musicians gave hand signals to Matt, or just told the guy ?I can?t hear myself out of this monitor.? I highly recommended seeing a show at the Turf Club! If you take the light rail, be sure to leave before the last LRT around midnight. MetroTransit says the final train is 11:35pm, but luckily one showed at midnight.

Great venue! Good sound, great staff, good selection of drinks, good seating. The crowd at the show was a bit lethargic, but the venue and the bar were ?

I was here this Saturday to see the Flobots perform. They were amazing to watch live and were very good at engaging the audience. The Turf Club was serving food in the basement so I had some appetizers while I waited. Their French fries seemed homemade and had the right amount of girth and crispness. Their onion rings were also good but I preferred their French fries. There?s also a projector in the basement that was playing Howard the Duck. The walls in the basement had decorations with clown pictures and murals of interesting art. This is a really intimate venue with a nice atmosphere. The main stage is on the same level as the entrance. There were some seats by the entrance and next to the bar. I could see the stage well from where I was seated, which was next to the bar, and I also liked the acoustics from where I sat.

Love this venue! Waitstaff are on their A-Game, every time we visit. Sound is fantastic for such a small place (max capacity 300). Also, food is great! Keep up the good work Turf Club!
