Reviews of Casbah (Night Club)

Camille Goodwin

a lot of good memories of shows played here

john bondy

Great venue small but interactive environment

High Brass

They are enforcing Vaccine passports. I'll never support or spend a dime here ever again. Goodbye.

Susan Perron

I've always heard of this place and I always thought it was going to be a nice classy place. When I went on the weekend it was a real dive as far as I'm concerned

Kurt Sasso

Great place to go. Loved that the Hamilton Music and Film Festival was here and that we got to see our film played. Great staff as well

Greg Brent

Pretty good venue for finding local bands and serves solid beer. Reliable spot for a night's entertainment.

Mike Long

This is a place that I’ve spent a lot of time in. There were many memories and not enough documentation. Glass Candy, The Pixies, Jay Reatard, Constantines...sheeeeeeeit, really too many to list. Greg Ashley played one of my all time favourite sets here. I spent many hours playing records and showing movies here. Miss this vibe for sure.

Ian B

great place for an intimate music experience

Carrie Szeles

Was there for 80's night. Cash bar only, ATM with $2.50 on site.

Jensen Radio

Violent atmosphere

Emily S

My friend's band plays here frequently, and I enjoy going to see other performances from local groups, great place!

Julie Fazooli Marquis

I've always loved the Casbah for so many reasons as the events there are so diverse, but the staff especially make this one of my favourite venues for events in Hamilton, hands down! Now that they're offering take out, it just got even radder. Always a great time, always a great vibe, whatever you're into!

Gary “K” Warren

Great band venue

Gina Ritchie

lacks character and soul. the bar staff have never given me change and are just as characterless as the decor. the place lacks imagination, presentation and warmth. i hate this place. a really terrible choice for the lgbtq+ events. a dude bar.

Boom Douglas

One of the best live music spots in Hamilton. Great craft beers and a cool cozy atmosphere.

Drew Hewitt

They've hosted some epic shows throughout the years.

Melanie Kennedy

Always a great time and awesome cozy atmosphere.

Alex Baker

Small spot, decent music, expensive drinks

Emma Daughton

Amazing live music and their Risky Business 80s nights are the best dance party in town

Nick DiFlavio

Great craft beer selection. Great bands. Great place.

Luca

Went for a local hip hop show, atmosphere was cool even though it was an off night. Bar staff was friendly as well, prices seemed to be on par with what i expected.

Leanne Wilton

A really nice little concert venue! Lots of space, cozy atmosphere with fun murals on the walls, reasonably priced drinks! The washrooms are tiny, but this is a really fun place. Tip: there are coat hooks under the bar in case you want to store a jacket.

Ryan Clark

Love the lounge!

Pete Henry

This place rocks, the staff are all great, especially Justine! Had a blast playing a set here, definitely come check it out for some good drinks and live music

Shalana Switzer

Went to the Casbah lounge for a chef pop-up. Cant say what it's like other times but our experience was great!

michael greggain

Philippe Péteut

(Translated) Super club with a nice atmosphere always against live music with regional artists good beer and shots ots hopefully I will come back again soon (Original) Super Club mit netter Atmosphäre immer wider live Musik mit regionalen Künstler gutes Bier und Shots ???? hoffentlich komme ich wieder mal hier vorbei bis bald

Brandon Dempsey

And when you're done.. Hess is only a five minute walk away.

Alexander Vorobyov

I lost my phone there and they had it when I came back today

Willow Watson

Great venue for music!

Paul Smith

Left before the headliner, Said the Whale. Could see almost nothing of the stage or performers, just foreheads and people’s backs. It was like a concert in someone’s cramped basement! Very disappointing trip to Hamilton. If you operate a venue with General Admission, you need a raised stage! It’s just common sense! The Mod Club, Revival, The Carlu, even Kee to Bala have a RAISED STAGE! Never returning to this venue!

Jaclyn Venables

Great kind of divey bar

Debbie A Ellis

Awesome patio come check us out!

Kris Spence

Great staff, great sound, great beer, great music. What more do you need!

Broderick Mathews

Really loud!

tom bochniak

Great venue for local live music. Bar is a bit pricey but nothing rediculous.

carl craig

waste of time

The Wrecking Yard Radio

Top notch!

Kim Pho

Always love the intimate concerts here. Bar is quick and friendly, but beware, the bathrooms are very small and can get crowded and busy very fast.

Adam Gyimesi

Great little rock bar

Chris Rouse

A group of friends and I went here to see a live show (which we enjoyed very much), however there is a staff member who pompously and arrogantly refereed to himself as "a promoter" who just about ruined our night. We has been lucky enough to get a few of the last chairs off to the side of the venue, and after sitting and waiting for the show to start this arrogant, rude door-man comes over and says he's taking our chairs because there are people who paid more for their tickets than us or something and they have a higher right to the seats than us. Heres an idea, plan ahead and put out enough chairs so everyone can sit like they paid to, or have a separate "VIP" seating area. When we complained that he was being rude and shouldn't be taking our chairs he immediately told us he would throw us out of the show. Luckily the show was excellent, because that guy shouldn't work anywhere related to customer service. Would not go back.

Brock Rittner

Hand soap was notably aromatic, Pabst was over priced, lost a star for that

Neil Spence

Amazing music venue... great bands... great staff..great fun!

John Copple

Best Indie Rock venue in Southern Ontario but also a great place to see other interesting shows. The lounge has great DJs and cold craft beer, Love this place.

peter m Streun

A good venue for local music or touring band's. I like that the draft beer is always changing. A really good venue if you enjoy craft beer. I always seem to find something I really like on tap.

faye woods

i've been here a few times for shows at this venue over the last couple of years and it's been a great experience every time.
