There's an arcade next to it that is open late at night later than any of the other bars or joints open during the week no matter when and drinks are insanely cheap the atmosphere is Chill it's never too crowded and the video games go back to the 1970s!

A local landmark. When you're here, you're tapped into the history of this town. I've been going to shows here for, at least, ten years. Some of my best nights (Liquid Limbs, Naked Love, 3 Inches of Blood, hooking up with a former bartender upstairs during a terrible post-hardcore show,) and one of the worst (shattered ankle seeing Absu,) have been spent in this hall.

A lot of great dancing and memories have been made here. I miss Indie Nights on Thursdays! But it's still an awesome spot for dancing and shows.

Really cool FEST venue. I didn't think they were gonna hold to their name, BUT THEY REALLY DO!!! Cool decor! Didn't get the chance to check the menu, but seems like a nice place to chill with friends.

New year's eve was fantastic there. The crowd was great. The dance floor was crowded but it was big enough for us to dance and enjoy. The DJ was playing good music.

Some of my favorite nights out in Gainesville have been seeing bands at this venue. There are two doors to access outside smoking areas where drinks are permitted that link together around the side. Its also pushed up against the arcade bar so there are multiple people from different bars mingling together on this outside area. Sometimes the sound is a little muddled when seeing a show, but they get some pretty amazing bands.

Loads of fun with a wide variety of performances. Also connects with a cool 21 and up patio and DJ as well as to the Arcade. One of the best venues in G-ville. Smallish but above average.

The Atlantic is a great bar to chill at. The atmosphere is perfect anytime you visit. Their Goth Nights and shows are on point!!!

We stopped by before Free Music Fridays to grab a quick drink and finally check the place out since we’d never been inside before. I’m glad we came early, it gave us a chance to look around and take it all in. The bartender was really friendly and laid-back, which made the experience even better. The space is super clean, and the stage looks perfect for live music. We tried a few local beers and were really happy with everything. The vibe actually reminded me of a hometown college bar I used to visit on Cape Cod with a friend, which made it feel extra nostalgic and fun. There’s also plenty of parking in this area, which is a big plus. Overall, we had a great experience—thank you!
