First, let me say that everything here is overpriced, including the tickets.
The real reason I am writing this review is because I went to the bar here while seeing a show and the bartender refused to give me a cup of water. He instead suggested that I buy a bottle of water for $3.50. I asked for the cup of water in addition to a drink I was ordering that cost $10.50 (did I mention this place was overpriced?). I would MAYBE be a little more understanding if I wasn't also ordering a drink, but really this is unacceptable either way. Perhaps they would also refuse free water to someone who passes out in the crowd at a show? Wouldn't surprise me. Anything for a buck at this place.
This is the ONLY time I have ever been at a bar that refuses to serve its patrons a cup of water for free, ESPECIALLY when they are buying other drinks. It's not like I walked in off the street and asked for a drink. Did I mention my ticket cost $49?????
Go see a show at Mr. Smalls for $20 instead of $50 and they will happily give you a free cup of water if you are thirsty or want to take a break from drinking alcohol. Anyone who says this place is great only sees shows at large venues and doesn't care about getting ripped off on everything. This place sucks.
Update: Went here for another show. Here's an idea, Stage AE: if your bartenders are unwilling to tell me what cans of beer they have in the coolers (rude about it too), maybe they should clean the fucking fog off the glass so I can see the cans myself. This place still sucks.
