Dan's Silver Leaf

New to the city of Denton, Texas and want a groovy place to hang out with your mates and slant a few frosty malt beverages and relax in a full service musical Mecca, small enough to be an intimate foray into a sonic atmosphere that is not pretentious and relaxing enough to lean into. Kudos to Dan's Silverleaf, an iconic brand and inviting experience for making a steady relationship with I think I have actually been welcomed here since Dan moved here for a location across town, on Elm street.Cheers to you all and save me a seat in the front of the stage, please!Cheers,Mark F.

Great bar in Denton to sit and listen to live music on a Sunday afternoon. Quick and friendly service at the bar. We didn't get food, but they let you bring food in from other nearby restaurants.

I've been coming here for over a decade and it's been practically a second home. No food (unless the event specifies), but you're welcome to bring outside food in. There's also a pet-friendly patio, and the vibes are always good. Great music, friendly staff, chill vibes.

Divey spot for a cheap drink. The decor is eclectic and interesting - there are various paintings on the wall and ceiling. The indoor part has very limited seating so I can see how seating can run out with a popular act. The times I've been, we haven't had a problem catching a seat and the tables are right next to the stage so it's a pretty intimate venue to hear music. They also hold UNT "research on tap" that I have attended. While you drink, you can hear lectures on subjects from experts in that field. It's never packed and always super interesting. The one I attended was on drinking and exercise... it's less than an hour and even has a question and answer session with the audience.

Cool joint for drinks, hanging out and live music. Even the world renowned Will Johnson plays here!

Very cool venue! There is always entertainment so check out their event calendar. There is a pretty chill outside area with another bar that you can hang out at. Drinks are good, staff and owner are great! The venue is located in downtown Denton, so make some time to find parking. Check this place out and support local!

Great little local bar. It has a small town feel. The main bar area is pretty spacious and has a walk up bar toward the back. While Sometimes it's nice to have the wait staff, I think it was pretty great to be able to go and get what you want when you want and not have to worry about waiting for a server. They had an outdoor area as well with a covered patio, it had picnic tables and another walk up bar. There were stages both inside and outside. We were there for a Stone Temple Pilots cover band. It was a lot of fun and very reasonable at $10/ ticket in advance. I think it was $15 at the door.

Awesome music venue near old town Denton. Divey, cheap drinks and a whole bunch of people just trying to have fun.There's usually a cover but don't deter you from coming in. Cover charge will not cost you an arm leg, I promise. Will regularly check out their band rotation so I could come visit more.

Drove 2hrs to attend a show here, the website said 'first come first seating' I arrived 2hrs before start time. Walked in paid my admission only to find out EVERY seat and table was reserved and only a handful of people there (mostly employees) needless to say I turned around and got my money back. Had I known that I certainly would have tried to make reservations, but your website stated otherwise.Very disappointed!

Best advice you are going to get today is to read this review before you go to a show at this place. Went to see James McMurtry. Got tickets online which said "Doors open 7:30 Show at 9:00." Website said "Doors open 7:30 Show at 9:00." Got there right at 7:30 and every table was taken. Not because people had been standing in line and got there before we did and got in before us when they opened the doors at 7:30. I can deal with that. That would be my bad. But that was not the case. In fact, the less than intellectually impressive (my opinion, I could be wrong) staff person finally said it was because they actually opened the doors at 3:00. Huh? Talked with the guy in charge (sad commentary on the rest of the people who work there that THIS was the guy who was presumably the smartest one there (my opinion, I could be wrong) ) and he said that what the ticket and website meant was that the "doors open at 3:00 but they don't start taking tickets until 7:30." Huh? That means that people can apparently show up anytime after 3:00, grab a table and sit but somehow their ticket is not "taken" until 7:30 (??!!) ? Then the people who follow the instructions on the ticket and website, and expect the doors to open at 7:30 because , well, the ticket and the website say doors open at 7:30, can't get a seat because we believed what we were told, twice, by Dan's Silverleaf.Look, they can run their shows and their business however they want, assuming they are sentient enough to do so ( this telling time thing appears to be something of an obstacle and they really don't seem to have a good grasp of the meaning of the words "doors" and "open." )But what they cannot do is put absolutely false information on the website and the ticket and then try and give some literally incoherent would be explanation for their failure to be...um... truthful. And the problem is so easily solved. Just say...wait for it..(you already figured it out although the Dan's Silverleaf staff brain trust hasn't ).. just say "DOORS OPEN AT 3:00 !!!!!!" Okay, I'm honest and fact-based and don't make blatant misrepresentations like, well, you know who, and I believe you are entitled to all the relevant information, unlike, well, you know who, so I will tell you that Dan's Silverleaf agreed to refund my money for the tickets. Doesn't exactly make it even seeing as how we had a 96.4 mile round trip ( I googled mapped it. I told you I was honest and fact-based ) to go to the show. But I'm sure they thought it was the least they could do and for once I was in total agreement; it was the least they could do. Nevertheless, this is now water under the bridge for me but PLEASE keep this review in mind if you are thinking about going to a show there. Not saying at all you shouldn't. ( My opinion, I could be wrong.) I'm just making sure you have all the pertinent information since that doesn't seem to be a thing those people care about very much. However, you will get the next episode if I do not get my refund. That might actually get me annoyed.
