Maggie Mae's

Great place to see live music, comedians or show off your dancing skills upstairs. Wander in any random night and enjoy the ambiance, chill employees or whoever is on stage

Go for the comedy. Seriously. Across the street you will be paying for a ticket & waiting in line for the same amazing comedians. This place gave us so much joy in one night!

Great menu, food, and service. Love this place. Come during the week and it is much easier to walk right in and get a seat by the water.

Went to Maggie Mae's to watch comedy and it was so bad. Seriously bad. Very few laughs and every joke was about sex or drinking. Very few folks laughed. Don't waste your time.

This was our faaaavorite bar out of all the ones we visited on Sixth Street on a crazy Saturday night in July. This one was different. Sure it was insanely crowded and packed on both stories, but we loved having that open air and space to love around and dance on the rooftop. The music was ON POINT with my personal taste...ranging from electronic pop, alternative to contemporary music, and generally good music to dance to. There were some folks dance battling with one another, and others were just enjoying the drinks and the entire vibe. We had gin and tonic here and we were happy. We'll definitely come back if we're in the area again.Also, if you're into more traditional music and want to stray away from mainstream stuff, there was an awesome band singing covers of classic oldies that we really enjoyed too. Forgot the name of their band, unfortunately!

This is a well-known establishment on the popular Sixth Street.Absolutely adored visiting this place. It's huge! There's a cool bar area and another sort of outdoor patio and an upstairs.Decor is trendy and fun. Drinks are very reasonably priced and the service incredible. I love it when people truly like their jobs and welcome patrons with open arms.Top notch!

I had the opportunity to check out Maggie Mae's earlier this month. SXSWedu held their Closing Party at Maggie Mae's and I attended. So, forewarning, this review is more of what the place is like during a hosted event, and may not represent the usual experience. Maggie Mae's is a large venue space with two levels. When I entered, security scanned by SXSWedu badge and ID'd me to confirm I was of age. They were adamant about that (especially since the party was open bar). On the street-level floor, there was a bar to your right and tables around the floor. First floor was packed. I wanted to check out the musical performance and DJ scheduled, so I went upstairs where the stage and dance floor were. On the second-floor rooftop, there were two bars - a larger one to the right and a smaller one closer to the stage/dance floor. The venue set up a taco/nacho table by the larger bar, where staff served ground beef for tacos and nachos (everything else was self-serve on the table). From the second-floor rooftop, there is an indoor second floor area (which I think is called the Gibson room). In there, the décor is luxe and sleek looking. The bar inside is pretty large, too. The bathrooms are also in this area. The sound on the second floor was good. The area around the stage got really crowded, so I stuck to one of the tables that overlook the street. There were some lounge-y couches, but not many people left their spots on them if they got one. Maggie Mae's was very nice. The bartenders and staff working the event were friendly, polite, and fun. It was a good time. They run events well here.

Such a great spot for drinks and live music! Dj on the balcony.... acoustic downstairs during the early hours. Friendly staff!

I have been to Maggie Mae a handful of times. I love that it has a rooftop bar area where you can enjoy music, grab drinks, and also look below on dirty 6th street. My last encounter here I wasn't impressed with our bartender. She gave us attitude when we asked about drink specials. Not sure what the deal was but will come back in the future.

Avoid the comedy club. It was terrible, the host was not funny. The servers were great but the comedians didn't get anyone in our group laughing.
