What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"I had an amazing experience at Red Light Café! The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, and the music and artists are absolutely perfect. During my 40 days in Atlanta, I went there three times, including on my very last night in the city, because I couldn’t leave without enjoying one more wonderful experience. In Brazil, I haven’t found anything as charming to do on a Wednesday night. The only thing I would suggest is improving the quality of the wines, but everything else was truly fantastic."
"Last night was my first time at the Red Light Café, and I was really impressed! The venue itself is lovely at night — I especially loved the lighting. The staff and bartenders were friendly, fast, and efficient, which made the experience even better. The atmosphere felt welcoming and unpretentious, with a cool nightclub vibe. I came out to see an amazing Tribute to Sade, and the band absolutely did not disappoint — the singers and musicians were all incredibly talented. I really enjoyed the evening and will certainly come back."
"I had the pleasure of attending an event here recently, and everything about the experience was top-notch. The staff were extremely welcoming and attentive, making the evening feel relaxed and enjoyable from start to finish. Their drink menu is impressive, offering a well-curated mix of adult beverages and fun non-alcoholic options. Since I was driving, I opted for one of their specialty sodas, it was refreshing, perfectly balanced, and absolutely delicious! The food was equally outstanding. I ordered the fried pickles with creamy ranch and the chicken dumplings with a teriyaki soy glaze. Both dishes were flavorful, generously portioned, and prepared to perfection, crisp, savory, and filling without being heavy. On top of that, the show itself was incredible. The energy in the room was contagious, and the overall atmosphere made for a memorable night out. This is an establishment that’s truly worth visiting, whether you’re looking to catch a fantastic show, unwind with a cocktail, or just enjoy some really well-made snacks. I’ll definitely be returning and recommending it to friends."
"What a great place. A hole in the wall but not a dive. An eclectic mix of events and a super nice staff. The place definitely has its own personality--quirky and fun."
"Wednesday nights can’t be beat! Young and well established (and sometimes famous!) musicians show up looking to play and have a good time. Entry ranges from normal ($10) to discounted for students. They have a nice bar, with friendly and attentive staff. The environment feels like a cozy corner of the Bronze (from Buffy) or what you imagined a bar looked like as a 19 year old theater student. Seriously check it out."
"I was so happy to find a vegan spot inside Ponce City Market! It's tucked away into a corner but the place was packed when we popped in. I ordered the..."
