I have been here several times w friends since it re-opened as part of the Music Settlement. The venue is fabulous. There are concerts most evenings. All pricing is reasonable - entrance to drinks. No drink minimum required. People who come are serious about music and serious about a good time. I've come alone (unaccompanied female), and feel completely comfortable. Street parking is always ample. You may have to walk a block or two. FYI, it's not in a 'hood. Bop Stop is located in a community and neighborhood. Additionally, the Music Settlement has been conscious of where this venue is located and who the community is. They have done outreach in Spanish and included bi-lingual day programming. I truly love when I can get out and spend an evening at Bop Stop!
