Strummer's

The combination pizza was delicious and nutritious. The manager Brian could own the place, but he says the owners are real sweethearts so no need for acquisition yet. .Great music and vibe!

Staff & bartender were nice. Bartender made an excellent old- fashioned! We got pizza & sliders. I was a little disappointed in the menu. Online showed tacos - both cauliflower & duck but weren't on the menu nor did they have any salads.

Strummer's is D I V E Y. I am never in Fresno, but Bandalos Chinos' made a stop at Strummer's during their first US tour, so it had to be done! This venue is tiny, tiny. It's split into two sides. One side has a large bar with booths and a semi-private area with another small bar and the other side of the venue has the stage and another bar. I'd say the side with the stage could maaaaybe fit 250 people. They are located in the oh, so, trendy tower district behind a dollar tree and around the corner from Sequoia brewing. Parking isn't an issue around here, well not on a Tuesday night anyway. Lol Security and check-in were a breeze. Doors opened at 7PM, there was a small line to get in. I waited closer to 7:30PM, right before the opener started and there was no line. They check your bags, do a quick metal detector scan, check IDs, give you a wristband, scan ticket and boom, you're in. They had a small merch table at this show and both bars open. White claws and NA brews were $7 on the stage side and $6 on the booth side. This is the type of venue where you can't take your drinks outside of the bar area. It was gated off and had a security guard monitoring that you weren't taking your drinks out on the floor. Not a fan, but I get it. Bathrooms are available on both sides. They block the bathrooms on the stage side before and after the show because the bands walk through there to get backstage. Sound check booth is near the entrance, like very out in the open, it was a little weird. The acoustics in here suck ass. The opener had drums on a track, which were uncomfortably loud, so you could barely hear her vocals. This was after a few attempts of the band telling the sound people to adjust it. They were having some issues. The main band didn't seem to have any sound issues, but they had a full band and louder crowd, so it could have just been masked with loudness. Security clears out the venue pretty quick, unless you are purchasing merch. They were inviting everyone to the other side of the space for a lil Tuesday night karaoke. Moral of the story, it was an easy concert day. Parking is easy, no waiting in lines, tickets were cheap, fees were minimal, and drinks were cheap. I would come here again for some smaller indie bands, but this spot is no well-oiled machine.

Love the atmosphere here so many memories of great friends, great times, and strong drinks! Service can be quick just be patient and talk to your group while you wait!

Went to Strummers with a group of friends for Gimme Gimme Disco Night. We had purchased our tickets online, and when we got there, entering was smooth, and we received wristbands. I appreciated the security check upon entering, and the security guards throughout were friendly and on too of things. A drink had spilled near the dance floor, and they made sure to quickly grab towels and get it dried up fast. The disco ball, DJ, and vibe from the crowd was great! We stayed for about 2 hours. Bartender was efficient, cordial, and my drinks were tasty! Giving the restroom and little more refreshing and more frequent upkeep could help that final star come to life!

Heard great things, left disenchanted. Went to Gimme Gimme Disco Night and it was a blast just dancing with a big old disco ball and loud retro musicOne of the security guards there was on a power trip or something though. When me and my boyfriend went to the bar area to grab drinks for a break, the security guard, a girl with a long braid, told him to make sure I drink a lot of water. Afterwards, she kicked out my friend just because she got sick and threw up in the bathroom. Meanwhile, when all of us were outside, an actual fight almost broke out outside. I get it, if people are acting all aggro then go ahead and make sure they're not around the rest of the patrons. But my friend didn't even do anything aggressive or wasn't harming anyone. She just got sick. So the security at strummers was whack last night for that

I had never known this place existed if it was not because I won tickets. It was 80's night and we went to enjoy some drinks and the music. We got there around 9:00 pm just in time. There wasNot a lot of people yet and we Found a place to sit down. We went and order us some margaritas. They have different drinks with their original name. They have beer and wine as well. We ordered some pizza too to accompany our drinks and not to get to drunk. I don't drink that often but the drinks don't make me drunk. That's a good thing. The DJ was playing music from the 80's. It was nice. There were a lot of young people. They all were having a good time. We were just enjoying the music and having a good time. I don't think I am coming back. But if you like to have a good time and good drinks this is the place for you. I did t see any issues and everyone was so nice. Very nice, and happy ambiance.

We had an awesome night here at Strummers! I took the kids to see The Aquabats! and it was the best time! Doors opened at 6 and show started at 7. We got there at 6 so it was easy to get in, no line. They have to search everyone of course. If you're not drinking they'll mark your hands with a big X so they don't let you into the bar area. Entry was easy with our tickets. I didn't even have to show them on my phone. They searched my last name and checked us all in. Mobile ticket is the way to go! It's a divey bar/venue/club. They had one room with the band merch and there are a few tables in there. Then there's a bigger room with the stage and bar area. The bar area is fenced off with security checking for a wrist band at the entrance. When the first band started playing some of my kids weren't ready for how loud it was gona be. Then in the nick of time a security came by and gave us ear plugs! That was so rad and we were thankful. During the show the mic kept going out and the musicians were getting frustrated (I think) but I was just happy to be there! Me and the kids (ages 11,10, 8 and 5) had the best night ever! One for the books! If the bats ever come to town again we're for sure gona be back.

On Dec. 6th, I drove from Los Angeles to attend Gimme Gimme Disco again. The security was very courteous to me. I got there about 30 minutes prior to the event. It started out very slow before 9:30 (time of show), once 9:30 hit, the dance floor was 75% packed. The DJ (Jules) was outstanding last night! She played 15 ABBA songs including The Winner Takes It All and If It Wasn't For the Nights, she forgot Waterloo though. The set list for the ABBA songs- Abba Medley by Stars on 45, Angel Eyes, Chiquitita, Dancing Queen, Fernando, Gimme Gimme Gimme, Honey Honey (2x), If It Wasn't For the Nights, Lay All Your Love On Me, Mamma Mia, Money Money Money, SOS, Super Trouper, Take A Chance on Me, Take A Chance On Me, The Winner Takes It All. She also played a lot of DISCO hits from the 1970's and 1980's including two modern songs, Hot to Go and Murder on the Dance Floor. I can say that this was worth the drive. I frequent Gimme Gimme Disco events as far as Austin, Texas. I can't wait to return to this venue. Strummer's has a great floor which is slick and it worked with my dance sneakers. I was able to do a few moves before it got crowded. Thumbs Up for Strummer's, you did it again!

EVERY TIME they have ETN everyone gets Covid!! I think some better ventilation and Covid procedures need to take place!!
