Ive been here before for a few shows and has always been a great experience. The people working have been friendly and I love the atmosphere of it because it is a smaller venue. One of the best times I had here was when The Movement and New Kingston came to town..today, on a Sunday I was happy to randomly stumble upon a sign they had out front saying they now had a bar and record shop upstairs while shows arent going on. I was happy to find a huge collection and the guy working at the bar provided great service and was very inviting. I ended up buying an old country record and a local NC electronic band I hadnt heard of. He actually told me the band, Triple X Snaxx will be playing at The Pour House in a couple of weeks 😎

What a great indie venue! Got to see Boysetsfire and All Else Failed, and it was a great way to spend a Friday night. It’s my duty to support small local venues, and I’ll will do so for as long as I can. Small Venues and the independent bands that play them are what makes the underground scene an awesome thing to be a part of, and I’m glad the Pour House does what they do. Can’t wait to see more shows here in the future !

The best place in Raleigh to see local and touring bands in a proper music venue. Great stage and sound system with excellent sound engineers. There is also a very cool record shop upstairs with a fabulous selection of vinyl. Bar in both upstairs record store and music venue is very nice and fully licensed with specialty drinks as well as a great selection of beers. It’s a clean well maintained place that feels very comfortable, welcoming and safe.

Wow what a great place! Almost missed the entrance but as we checked in I could feel the energy traveling out of the music hall and down their rustic brick walled hallway. There’s stairs to the top floor or enter right into the bar and music hall. I got great vibes being here and the bartenders were prompt and cool. Keep and eye out, you might just run into one of the band members mingling in the crowd before the show. From Bronze Age, second after, and FrontSide we had an amazing time and rocked out to some amazing bands. The energy from the crowd and the performers created an unbeatable music experience. This was our first time and we will definitely be back.

Fun concept for the place, you can browse through a good collection of records and have a tasty drink while you are at it. Hope to be able to see a performance at some point!

Always like coming here. Drinks are good, and I like being able to come upstairs away from the larger crowd, and because Im short and cant see over the tall folks! The only thing that would make it better is having some simple bar food options or even a food truck on site, especially if a show is 3-4 hrs long and people are drinking. Weve been here before so we knew to eat before coming but first timers may not know. Otherwise, cool spot for live music. Keep it coming!

Beer choices are excellent, music variety is unmatched and the place is no fuss. Come as you are and enjoy some live music.

Awesome wax, killer venue, and frigid PBR. What more do you need?

Outstanding venue - wonderful staff!

Super cool music venue! Great bar staff. Excellent sound. Good times!🤘

They have live gigs happening almost everyday and the venue looks super legit and underground. Raleigh overall is a beautiful place to be at and the Pour House just takes it up a notch, so if youre in this town the next time, make sure to visit this place. They have a great bar and a record store as well.

My first concert at this venue tonight with Butcher Brown and ZooCru. Very good sound. I look forward to more shows here. I hope I get the chance to play here when I get a band together.

Came in during IBMA to check out bands & it was great & so was the staff.

Vinyl. I remember. Fun to paw thru their collection and listen to live music.

Great Spot! Fun, chill atmosphere ! Superb acoustics for live music! Grab a bite to eat before you go!

Went there to see The Fritz and I just say...I loved this place. Great atmosphere to hear live music. The staff was fantastic, crowded was into the music and the Bands were OUTSTANDING! We will definitely be back.

Back open! Awesome spot with record sales up top and a bar thats now open and early enough to get done say drinking on. Do this

Great beers and great music! The show they had was so well conducted excited for the next one!

Backsliders were great and the venue is just as awesome as always; felt like a Hopscotch show.

Went to a live concert here on July 3 saw Rapper Batman it was a 5 star sold out service is really great.

Finally saw live music again! And safely! They did such a good job of hosting everyone to see the show which was also awesome. Cant wait to go back soon

They have amazing sound (WOOO JACK!), they really value the people who come to their bar, they treat their bands super well, they have a great culture, and have really shown their amazing true colors during COVID by stepping up the plate and being super socially responsible - not an easy feat! Not to mention they have great taste in records! Im so happy we have Pour House in Raleigh. Its the best of its kind, hands down.

Great record store/music venue. Really enjoyed Michigander! Thanks, That Station!

Went to The Pour House to see Arson Daily. The sound was amazing, servers were very attentive and the experience was great even with covid protocols. Looking forward to the next one! 🤘🏻

An amazing venue with great acoustics. Do not be turned off by its small size.

This place is awesome. Cannot wait to come back. Unmatched vibe and awesomely organized selection. Good bar as well. Nothing I can complain about whatsoever.

My favorite place to shop records!! An awesome location and amazing and helpful employees!!

Great music and fun atmosphere altho quite crowded

Great place for live music! Intimate, great bar selections, epic audio.

Great to see this place survive covid. Recently went to see Into The Fog. It was almost magical to see love music again. The Pour House did a fantastic job ensuring the safety of occupants and staff.

Great afternoon watching live music and buying vinyl!

We had a marvelous time,Unaka Prong kicked out the jams!A shout out to Adam serving the drinks,thanks for the hospitality.

We went there for Bass. Superb! Brilliant crowd and the live music is the best!

Hardest working bartender in Raleigh! Great music. Fun, civil crowd. Nice evening!

Great venue and so many band stickers!!!

Really enjoyed this spot. Down and upstairs bars. Live music and an awesome bartender males for a great night. I would for sure return here if I lived in NC.

I cant say enough positive things about this place. Their shows (pre-COVID and hopefully post-COVID were always excellent. More recently, Ive fallen in love with the BEST RECORD STORE IN THE TRIANGLE, hands down. Great selection, great correspondence, great people. Ill gladly keep spending my cash here.

Loudest concert Ive ever been to. Even with ear plugs. My jeans were vibrating. Totally unnecessary. So loud my friends and I had to leave. wasted our money for something we were pumped about.

Great venue for bands and concert-goers. The sound-engineer was awesome when we played.

Great bar food n music

Great place with wonderful staff and the HocoMars show was AWESOME too!

Great venue for a rock and roll show!

The atmosphere was very chill and overall it was a pleasant experience.

Great vibe, good drinks, and good amateur talent.

Great little bar. Got to see a really good show. Fair prices.

Amazing place for shows, beer, and friendly staff!

Great music venue. BadCameo band was amazing

Great bar with awesome service, and great music!

Great venue and excellent musicians!

Good open music bar with good selection of beers. Cool upstairs seating area too.

Awesome

Pretty cool venue! Thursday is local bands and local beer night, so as a tourist, it was cool to check out. The acoustics and sound couldve been better in the second story loft area, but music was still enjoyable. Well definitely come back when were in Raleigh!

Good music and they have cider. A win!

Best live music venue in Raleigh! Gang of Thieves loves playing here!

First time at the venue. Good crowd and sound was great.

Always a great time. Cold affordable beer, wonderful bands, friendly staff. I always keep an eye out for who is playing the Pour House because they book some really wonderful acts.

This is one of my favorite places in the Triangle to see smaller acts. There are two floors to view from. The bar carries a good selection of beer and alcohol. The corridor leading up to the door is cool for a fun photo opp. Always a good time at Pour House.

Amazing music, up close and personal. The drinks are priced fair and are always strong. The clientele are what you expect of this local favorite.... Happy to be out and enjoying company. Bi-level building. The alley entrance is as clever as it is on brand.

I got a concert invite from my friend and I decided to go. The main band was the movement . To get in you have to walk through a narrow hallway which actually seemed really cool. Walked in and the vibe was awesome. There was a good mix of males and females. Walked up to the bar and was greeted/ served promptly. I had the crank arm seasonal which was delicious. Met some other people there and had a blast dancing to the reggae beats. The music was really dope! Id definitely go back.

Great acoustics good crowd upper level provides outstanding view which is also where the vinyl records and store is with couch as well as table seating to browse the catalogs. Great place to relax, enjoy and of course enjoy great love music.

A Raleigh institution. An already great venue, the new record store and bar upstairs are a great addition. Come by on a weekend and hear great music for free and enjoy a beer while browsing their collection.

Great gig with Saxsquatch!

Awesome, thanks so very much for hosting the fund raiser

A great place to see local music! As a musician it’s much appreciated that this place is set up around the music, which the typical bar or brewery does not do. You can party and drink and mingle with other folks from the triangle but the main reason to go here is to check out some new interesting music.

Great venue, and now with the adjacent record store, even way cooler. Sound is top notch for a club that size. The Pour House is one of a handful of places that moved downtown before anyone and made Raleigh what it is today.

I havent been here in a hot minute...but wow! What a great experience. Totally worth it for anyone visiting Raleigh! Good drink selection, good amount of space inside. Great bands, as well! Awesome place for friends to get together!

I must admit I can not remember the name of the bands, but it was an excellent music. Beer is 6 or 7 $ and the entrance 25$. A bit pricey but it was nice atmosphere. I liked it!

Pour House has been my home base bar/venue in Raleigh really for as long as I have lived here. Great place to see local, regional, and national acts. The lineup seems to be the best in town month after month and the best in the triangle for clubs its size (Approx. 300 capacity).The staff and atmosphere is very inviting for people who both like to see live music and for musicians alike (I am both). Ownership is easily accessible and welcoming of any suggestion no matter how minor.Not to mention a great beer selection, fantastic central downtown location, and the best sound man in the biz.

Great concert spot. Up close and personal. Also an upstairs area. Full bar downstairs. Went to see my cousin perform reggae. Really enjoyed it!

Great venue for artist and just a cool spot to enter into. Highly recommended if a show catches your eye

It was very clean. I really loved the local beer selection. It’s an amazing venue.

One of the best places in Raleigh to catch the pulse of the music scene in town. Theyve got one of the largest beer and drink selections for a music venue, a great staff, and some of the best sound hands down of all the choices out there. On top of that, they are constantly bring in new acts, are open to burgeoning artists, and you are almost always guaranteed to see a dynamite show, regardless of what genre you may be into.So pick a night, head downtown, and check out one of my favorite stomping grounds!

I had a chance to visit The Pour House Music Hall for the first time recently with a friend and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.When you visit you enter the hall through an alley off of Blount street. While you go through the large metal door be sure to take in the graffiti art and all the stickers on the door. Once inside youll have the bar in front of you and the stage will be to your right with restrooms to your left. On the left side of the stage there is another doorway that can take you outside or take you to a balcony view of the hall (there are also a couple of tables and a pool table in the balcony area).The owners do a really good job in bringing talent to their stage and the bartender was great! It would be nice if they served food some basic bar food, but aside from that the place is awesome and Ill be going back soon!

They get the best bands in that little whole in the wall. Ive never been mistreated but its a fairly sketchy bar. I worry everytime I go in there, very dark, and cramped, but thats not necessarily a bad thing. Its easy to catch your favorite artists walking to the upstairs area for autographs and such after/during shows. Keep up the good shows!

Good beer selection and a unique venue. Cover is perhaps a bit steep, but they pull some good bands even on a Tuesday. Worth a look if you are visiting Raleigh.

Im such a fan of this venue. The staff is friendly no matter the day or capacity. Its great for an intimate show downstairs or to hang out upstairs. Theres pool tables and seating with a nice balcony overlooking the stage.

Great venue. I have seen many great shows here over the years.

Hole in the wall. Never been disappointed with any live band there. Always a fun place to hang out with a great selection of draft beer. No matter what band is performing the crowd is always fantastic.

The Pour House Music Hall (aka The Pour House) is one of the cornerstone venues in downtown Raleigh for original music. Hosting nationally and regionally touring artists on a regular basis while also serving as a go-to venue for many of the areas premiere local acts, The Pour House is one of those places you can walk into any night of the week and expect to hear some good music. The owners and staff are super friendly and take pride in booking quality acts, and serving a wide variety of reasonably priced draft beers.As a local musician, The Pour House is one of my favorite places to play because of the convenient downtown Raleigh location accessible to some of the areas best restaurants, making it easy to grab a bite to eat before a show without having to drive. Its central location also makes luring people to shows a much simpler feat. Even with a 300+ capacity, the room still maintains an intimate, dive-bar feel conducive for all types of music. I highly recommend this venue to any music lover looking for a friendly place to hear some great bands without hurting your wallet.

There is nobody else to call for need bar tending service for any size function. We hired PourBar Services for our wedding and they were the one of the easiest Vendors to work with. Eric and Cara always responded to me immediately, met with me in-person at my convenience and worked with our other vendors very well. They are flexible, accommodating, friendly and very easy to work with. Eric and Cara are they very definition of Superior customer service.

Everytime I come here I have a good time. My friends perform here regularly and its always amazing and good energy.

Probably the best music venue in Raleigh. They have a huge tap selection of craft brews and the staff is always friendly and fast on the pour. The entrance is a long dark brick hallway, and the first time I went I thought I was about to accidentally walk into a fight club, but I ended up discovering a top notch music venue and making a lot of friends along the way. A plus!

Another Raleigh gem! Great sound crew and great bartenders. Always a fun evening when you get to play this venue!

Fun venue with a lot of great beers on tap. Nice to have a bartender who made great recommendations on small brewery beers. Music was fun. And the floor was not sticky from beer spills.

If you like live music & good beer, why arent you here? Check the postings for whos playing.

I am a regular at the Pour House, especially for their Jazz/Fusion shows. Adam has his finger on the pulse of the hottest, coolest musical acts and brings them to the the Pour House from all over the world. The recent Hiatus Kaiyote (Australia) and Snarky Puppy (Brooklyn) shows are great examples of bringing cool to the area!The venue itself has a great deal of character and back alley ambiance, a characteristic that is becoming a rarer commodity in downtown

Ive been going to The Pour House since college, circa 2004. 10 years later and it is still one of my top favorite music venues in downtown Raleigh. The sound is always amazing and there is an upstairs viewing area which also has a couple of pool tables. They have a ton of tap handles with lots of locals on draft and they serve $3 PBR tallboys every day! Service is always reasonably fast depending on how packed the show is. Definitely check this place out!

Always have a great experience at the Pour House!! Live music spot that offers a balcony view, pool tables upstairs, good drinks, an up close and personal feel always. Sunday Funday there as well features specials, food, and live entertainment unmatched in Raleigh to the heady crowd. ✌️

Excellent live music and record shop! Cant recommend it highly enough! Come out and have a great time!

The Pour House is an older converted building, now used as a small two story music venue. Downstairs is a large bar with over 20 tap beers. They also feature a mostly full liquor selection. On the opposite end of the bar, there is a small stage. The best part about this venue is the small size. Its one of the most intimate venues in Raleigh for the top tier artists that play here. Upstairs theres a pool table, inactive bartop, as well as balcony railing to view the stage. They have several stand up tables surrounding the railing. My favorite spots are either right in front of the stage, or at the balcony railing. This place CAN get crowded on certain nights, but mostly its very navigable. Its 21 and over only for almost all events.

I came here for Fat Tuesday last night. Not an good experience I did not feel welcome. I brought my first drink, the bartender continues to remind me the price of my drink before he makes it. I said that the price is cool (I am aware of the price of my drinks). Fast forward to my second another bartender continues to remind me that the drink is pricey. In which I said I know. Turned to my friend to discuss when I am continued to be reminded of the price of my drink. The bartender is all the way at the other end of the bar. He walks back and tell me that I do not need to be rude..(because I am having an conversation with my friend) He continues to be an straight ass. So I tell him not to make my drink. And we left afterwards.I will never be back. I paid $10 for my friend and I and this is the worst service I have experience.

Nice club for music. Good selection of taps with a number of local craft beer. Street parking can be a little tough, but theres a parking garage right behind the place!

The poor house was great, & unknown Hinson sounded just like he does on TV also his performance was great!

Saw Ghost Note. Great music. Crowd became a little rude and management should have handled that quickly. But the band did and was a great night.

An odd amount of yuppies for a dive like this but I guess thats just the area. Bartenders were really prompt for a packed bar. Doorman was very personable and gave me some tips for my next stop. Live music sounded great in the small space.

Great bands local and national. Good beer selection. One of the best spots in Raleigh to caught a live show. The owner Adam is chill and runs the place right. Support local music!

As far as record stores go, this misses the mark a bit. Low selection, with high prices.

A true venue with two levels of madness. The bottom level is where the bands play and has a well stocked bar. The second level is more chill, overlooking the stage and has a few pool tables too.

It was during the week, but nice. Music, service, thumbs up. I was the proverbial old man in the club

Ive seen bands here and played here. I have to say from a musicians perspective, Adam is a pure pleasure to work with! He not only gets back to you ASAP but helps in any way he can to promote your show...Super professional! Great venue, awesome staff, one of my top favorites in Raleigh!
