We went to the Hook and Ladder on a Friday night this fall to hear some jazz and the theater is really cool! They had standing room and a dance floor up by the stage, some cocktail tables in the middle of the floor and some more standing room in the back, plus seating on the sides and in the lobby. The acoustics in the whole place are fantastic! They sell Heggie's pizza if you are hungry and they have a large selection of cans and bottles of THC drinks and beer. The staff were professional, quick, attentive, and welcoming. I'd go for a show again for sure!

This is such an awesome intimate music venue and event space! I've been to a few events here now, and each time it's a blast. At this recent event, they had live music in the main theater room, love jazz afterwards in their smaller Mission Room, and a live artist, food, and more in their back room. They also have an outdoor space where the event had a food truck and second bar which was awesome!They sell beer, seltzer, THC beverages and gummies in the main room, and there's a full bar in the other room. Such a great space to enjoy live music!

This is one of our favorite venues for local music! The Hook and Ladder has it all from drinks, THC products, vintage shopping, music, and great staff! Their security (SeQUEERity) goes above and beyond to keep people safe and provide a good experience. Their volunteer force that keeps events running means there are always a lot of local music fans at every event that care about keeping the scene fun and friendly. Their variety of shows is awesome with acts ranging from metal to bluegrass with everything inbetween. Their drinks are very reasonable for a concert venue with a wide variety of options available including lots of local beers and THC beverages (only thing they don't have is lemonade if you're a vodka lemonade lover!). They additionally offer THC products including gummies, chocolates, and many unique savory snacks like pretzels that are medicated as well. The staff in the THC lounge is always more than happy to answer questions and offer advice as well. This place is a must-stop for any local music enjoyer! Additionally, if you're hungry they often have a taco truck parked outside that is phenomenal as well :)

Hookstock was very disappointing. Too long,, too many breaks, overpriced weak drinks and who wants to hear Dolly Parton and someone who totally butchered Hendrix cover version of the Star Spangled Banner. Ugh.

We've been to Hook & Ladder a few times since we recently moved back to the Twin Cities, and it's quickly become our favorite live music venues. They have two different venues under one roof - the Mission Room, holds about 100 people, and the Theater and Lounge, which holds about double that. Nothing fancy but it's clean, safe, comfortable, with very reasonably priced tickets. Acoustics are good and we've seen some talented local (and regional) independent acts who perform their own original music.

They had a pretty nice Juneteenth concert. The Place feels equal parts grungy and hippie. Probably a lot of culturally relevant and significant concerts happen in this space.

Local live music, great acoustics, artists that aren't at any other venue, independent, local. I won 2 tickets for the #Microshow with Valerie June..my only problem was which friend I could invite. The pre-theatre lounge event and performance were phenomenal! Thank you!
