Walked through the front door and into this big empty room. Then around a corner, there is a dark area with a stage on which sit two baby grand pianos. Yes, duelling pianos. Write the song title on a scrap of paper and put your tip down! The more you pay, the sooner they play. Pace yourself on song selections and tip money. The best pop & rock classics are played later in the evening. The pianists are fun, funny, and good at what they do. Consummate entertainers. We laughed, cried, listened, and sang along. If they don't know the song, they will still play it if you give them a minute. They go to the back and listen to a few bars, perhaps read the lyrics then come out and perform. No refunds. So we sat at a high top for 4. It was their Thursday BOGO wing night. Order from a good selection of flavours but no later than quarter to 8. The evening wasn't terribly busy but the understaffed bar was having some challenges. We gave our orders after a bit of a wait. They arrived piping hot and they were all good. The service was great if you have a little patience. It was a great night out with our friends read more

My wife got drugged. After only 3 drinks she passes out immediately and threw up several times. Dudes were just sitting behind her watching/waiting. They need to get this under control. read more

Absolutely had a great time. They always have good bands. Good performances going on. I love my drinks usually get a Long Island the service depends on the bartender, but usually the bartenders are really nice. They're just busy so they're trying to get everything in and out. I usually just get french fries and I like them though they have a downstairs that opens up after a certain time I like to go down there as well, but it does get hot downstairs read more

We reserved a table for the show and had dinner next door before arriving around 9. The live music was decent, and our server was fantastic--attentive and quick with wine refills. Unfortunately, the wine itself wasn't great, and the tap water had such an off taste that I had to switch to Coke. We ordered the fried Oreos for a fun treat, but they were underwhelming--cheap ice cream and lackluster execution. I've had better from food trucks. The use of a fog machine felt a bit outdated, and the restrooms could benefit from a refresh to match the standards of the surrounding downtown Buford establishments. Overall, 37 Main is a fun spot for live music and a night out, but there's definitely room for improvement in the food, drinks, and overall atmosphere. read more

This place rocks! Came here to see a Pink Floyd cover band for my first time. Wasn't disappointed. Paid $200 for a reserved 4 person table top and it was worth it imo. We sat right at the front of the viewing area, separated only by a few feet from the front of the stage. The band was great and so was the service, table side. The venue is big enough to hold local cover bands only. There is a down stairs dance floor that supposedly gets pretty lively, but I didn't make it down there this trip. Will definitely come back and see it all next time! read more

Last night our friends played here, Poser Band!! A nice venue & we were in the cover-charge, reserve a 4-top table-top section. The other section seems like a normal restaurant with FULL access to watch the bands from their seats or on the big screens throughout the venue. Doesn't seem right, but whatever. The food looked really good- lots walking past my face, but we ate before heading out, so we Didn't eat. Next time, maybe. Very dark inside & VERY loud when the band is playing- be aware if you need protection. I am not kidding! The stage is pretty small, but I'm not up there. Lots of effects- smoke, lights, even a small dance floor up front. All good!! Staff is friendly & on-point. If we have another opportunity to watch Poser Band again, we are there!!! Was a fun night!! read more

Service is terrible and I've been here in more then one occasion. Haven't gotten any better over the years

We Reserved a table to see the live band, which was a lot of fun. Small dance floor but still big enough to have big time fun. Our waitress was right on top of things. Kept the drinks coming . had a really good time. read more

The guy at the door made for a very bad first impression. Management might want to find someone a little more personable to do this job. The hostess that met us just after the door guy was great and made up for him. We saw a Lynyrd Skynyrd tribute band and the sound was louder than anything I've ever experienced. The music sounded terrible because it was so loud and distorted. I watched so many people in the audience in pain at certain points of the show. A friend drove up from Roswell and was miserable, leaving halfway thru the show. Now I'm miserable, sitting here in my recliner the next morning, hoping like hell that this horrible ringing in my ears goes away before too long and isn't permanent. Can this sound guy really be serious? read more

Fun Friday night with Def Leppard tribute band. Opening act was also great - acoustic one-man-band. Drinks are mediocre and come in plastic cups so stick to the basics. Service was great - our waitress was very attentive. There is a dance floor and you can get a table also, although it'll cost ya extra. Definitely recommend checking out if you don't mind the drive. read more

We got great service and the sliders were terrific Our waitress was always tending to us on our night out making it worth it read more

Amy was amazing! Moby dick was amazing! The food and drinks were amazing!! I will definitely be back!

We saw Burning Witches on 11/13, and had a blast! Super nice & friendly staff - our waitress was amazingly sweet. The venue itself is small & intimate, but rocks loud & large! Loved the sound & lights - very cool. The stage is small, and there is a nice area in front of it for moshers & then plenty of hightop tables. Security was always visible, so no worries at all. After eating delicious wings, the Burning Witches took the stage and put on an awesome show! Wouldn't hesitate to come back again. Stay metal! read more

If MILF's and bad music are your thing this is the place for you. Way to loud but, there is some eye candy there.

Everything about this place was horrible. Terrible staff rude bouncers. Only reason I came was too see my friends in bands. I would never come back, and I know lot of people who feel same. You drive this far to come to this venue , and you have bartenders being rude to your friends. I mean want charge cover and charge outrageous drinks prices please have a great staff read more

I went and there was a $5 entrance fee. I came with a college friend but we were not sure what to expect, especially in Buford. I had the best time! There was a some what hidden basement where people could separate from the dining area and dance! Would come again. Only problem...the drinks were a little expensive and not very strong. read more

We had a great time at the Icon Music Festival at the Cumming FairGrounds last night! Earlier in the week I was watching the weather and was worried about going to this outdoor concert as lots of rain/thunderstorms were on the forecast. Yep, the bad weather came, but I'm happy to report it didn't dampen the show! :) I called 37 main a day before asking about the weather, the staff was very friendly and told me not to worry that it's rain or shine and that the stage was fully covered. Yes, they had a very professional set up, everything was covered from the weather and it was a great show! Parking was across the street at $5 - reasonable. Event staff was friendly and on the ball with an organized system for check in. We were asked for our ID and given a wrist band to prove age (thanks for carding us old timers!!). Lol. Next step was to receive wrist bands designating our seats. I thought this was a great process. Seat numbers were written on that wristband. Worked great! Several food trucks were on the premises. Police and paramedics were on hand, there may have been some merchandise for sale- didn't get a chance to check that out. We arrived just as Michael Jackson (I am King) took the stage. We had a fun time dancing and singing along to all the MJ hits. Damn, I should have bought a silver glove! Lol. I did see a few in the audience! Between songs we heard what sounded like an emergency weather alert (we figured it was an extreme thunderstorm or possible tornado in the area) - thank goodness it wasn't! It was just the introduction to the song Thriller! Nice touch! lol! Two zombies appeared from the audience and met MJ on stage for the iconic Thriller dance! They were really good! The DJ was really great between the set. Played lots of dance music, some I had not heard in a while. Fun fun!! People watching was great! Prince (the Purple Xperience) took the stage and did not disappoint! Wow, Marshall Charloff is extremely talented! Singing, dancing, playing multiple guitars and piano - all while looking great with every costume change! The band was wonderful - world class players! We Danced and sang along to all the fan favorites - Kiss, Little Red Corvette, Raspberry Beret, I wanna be your Lover, When doves cry, Nothing compares to you, Pop Life, Delirious, 1999 and of course Purple Rain. Really, we had a blast! The event couldn't have gone any better! The rain did not dampen the performances or fun. We will definitely watch their upcoming events to see when The Purple Xperience will be coming back to 37 main. Our tickets included a coupon for 1 house show - looking forward to that. Nice job 37 main! Great event! It's nice to see this type of event coming to the Cumming FairGrounds! Thanks to all involved for putting on a great event. Looking forward to the next... read more

HUGE disappointment! A fantastic act (Led Zepagain) was ruined by the basement music which had the floor vibrating offbeat! Super annoying trying to enjoy a "Jimmy Page" classic solo while being distracted by the Shi**y noise thundering from downstairs! The Led Zeppelin tribute band would have been a phenomenal experience had management cared. read more

Good food, good drinks, good live music. The bartender was very friendly, always wore a gorgeous smile. And very attentive. Made/brought over our drinks promptly. We ordered the trio of chips, sliders, boneless wings, and regualar wings, all of which were great. The music was first a DJ, then a live band. We enjoyed both of them greatly. Only complaint I have was the 10$/a person cover charge, then the optional 20$ table fee... luckily we were able to find bar seats, no charge, but that doesn't take away from the overall wonderful experience! read more

Me and my girlfriend went here on 5/3/19 to see Departure play. My brother in law reserved a table and checking in was simple. Emma have us pretty good service even though it was packed out. The online menu was different from what they currently have, so if you see something you want that's online, be prepared for them not have it anymore. (They need to update their online menu) if you get hot and want to walk outside, you can't take your drinks just FYI. The bathrooms are single person only, so be prepared to wait in line. I ordered the John Wayne burger and tater tots. Burger was really good and you can't go wrong with tots. We ordered the onion rings appetizer and other then them being over cooked, they still had good flavor and the sauce made it better, so ask for an extra or you will be waiting for another cup of it. Overall it was a great experience and Depature was awesome! It was worth it to see them and the atmosphere was pretty good. We will return to see more shows. read more

We went to 37 Main for the Queen Nation concert (which was phenomenal!). While waiting for the concert to start, we had some yummy wings. The service was great- especially with the crowd there before the concert. read more

Service was outstanding, entertainment (bands great). However, I had been sitting on a hard stool for some time. As a disabled veteran I have an injured back which will get very painful at times. Due to the pain increasing my wife walked a few feet to the bar and asked the bartender if it was okay to bring me a softer chair which had a back. He said no problem but while enroute the redheaded manager stopped her and rudely told her she couldn't move the chair. My wife tried explaining the situation and she said I don't care the chairs stay at the bar. As a disabled vet I started looking around and wondered if this place is even ADA compliant. If only the manager had been a little nicer instead of being rude this review would not have been necessary. read more

I saw an awesome blues/rock band here at 37 and Main called "Crews & Company, and it was definitely an awesome night of soulful blues and electrifying rock. Their dynamic performance, blending 70's classics and their own fantastic originals made for an awesome show. They are an absolute must see for any and all music lovers out there. I would love to see them again. 37 & Main thanks for the great service and for hiring such a great band to entertain us all. read more

I was so overjoyed by the last time I went to this place and had posted an amazing review. However , I went to this place last time after getting an email on the change of menu and had a horrible experience. Our fries were oily and then the second time we ordered the nachos which were very spicy and also had hair strand in it. We didn't bother to complain again and just paid our cheque and left. They charged us a cover charge for the band as it was Saturday and somehow we didn't enjoy the band too. read more

Sooo this is an interesting place to say the least. To start with the good: the live bands. They get great entertainment and they are always jamming out. Now the bad: 9 times out of 10 there's a cover charge of over $10. I get that its because there are live bands but like its all the time. The bouncers outside are kind of rude and really, the creepy "men" inside should be watched more closely. I never wonder off by myself out of fear of being harassed by someone there. They need bigger bathrooms/more than one set. And the bartenders aren't all that great with the cocktails so stick with beer. It also gets expensive pretty fast. The basement area is just off putting. Yea its a better place to dance for the younger folks but the stairs are very steep and its just hot and weird down there. Go with friends and chill upstairs for the live acts and you'll have fun. Other than that, I would say pass. read more

Very cool bar. Great bands. Needs nicer staff. The girls that were at the door were unessarlly rude. Drink prices are ridiculous.

This is one of the strangest places I have ever been, other than the nearby restaurant we visited right before this. Oh Buford you are an interesting place! I paid a $10 cover charge for the band of the night, but had no idea what I was walking into. The venue, upon first entry, seemed like a club with loud DJ music decorated like a sports bar. Shortly after getting a drinking and passing the bar I made my way into the room with the stage. Am I allowed to say damn on here? Damn the people watching... that is good. The service was actually pretty good, and to tell you the truth, it seemed like the most happening spot in town. However, thats like saying the most happening spot near my cabin in Milledgeville is a trailer that has a liquor license. Ok ok, seriously though... the service was nice but the band was bad, and I wasn't thrilled I paid a cover charge for a place I drove 40 minutes away from Atlanta's great venues to visit. The two stars sticks true to the exact title "meh." read more

37 Main - Music Venues Near Me - Buford, Georgia

Place has great potential if they work out a few issues. 1. Food sucks. Royally. Eat somewhere else first. Don't come hungry. 2. Dance floor area is TINY. What's worse is the people who want to actually dance have to dance around people that just STAND THERE. Don't want to dance, get the hell off the dance floor. 3. Table seating. Packed together tighter than Dicks hatband, especially near the front rail at dancefloor. Then people actually want you to get up so they can cut through versus walk around. If they would have the management speak and remind the zombie gropers to GET OFF the dance floor if you don't want to dance or just want to grope. read more

Let me start with the positives... The staff is very friendly The atmosphere his great The live music is fantastic Now the rest.... The food borders on being inedible Do yourself a favor, eat BEFORE you come listen to music. Whatever you do; DON'T order the grilled chicken sandwich. The burgers are "meh". The boneless wings SUCK. The bone in wings are decent but nothing to write home about.... It's hard mess up fries; their fries are extra cold and greasy. But hey, the music was EXCELLENT.... read more

The atmosphere is "home". Eastside Athens bars...man, I miss it. The beer selection leaves much to be desired. The cover band was pretty freakin awesome though. My former roommate and I do some amateur dancing, he is actually more professional than me, so we were able to kick it with them. They played hit songs and didn't sound half bad. People watching is prime. I will definitely go back. read more

37 Main - Lennon and Colton - Music Venues Near Me - Buford, Georgia

When on Saturday night 8:00 ish with some neighbors and met friend there. Friends went early around 7 to get a table for all of us (about 10 people) to no avail. If you want a table and there is a popular band playing may want to go at 6:00 eat there then hang. There was a Michael Jackson tribute band and Journey Tribute band playing so the place got pretty crowded quickly. They charge a $10 cover, not bad because the bands were amazing. I have to say the Michael Jackson band was spot on looks and sound, lots of dancing and singing along from the crowd. We had a blast and the bar staff was really friendly, and I tipped generously because I walked up to the bar and bam my drinks were being made already after 2 rounds didn't even have to tell them what we wanted. read more

Been to this place countless times over the past 5-6 years. Spent thousands here. Subscribed to their live streaming deal for a year to support them through the covid nightmare. Referred tons of people too. Taken groups of 20+ to shows here more than a few times. The Bands have been great fun. I like to support local businesses and local music. Sadly, the manager is apparently not clear on the meaning of customer service. We've had issues with her before but we'd let it go. Overcharges, incorrect orders, and she always made us feel it was our fault when we looked for resolution. Over time one would hope to see improvement, but in this case, that has not happened. Tonight was the last straw. They lost a loyal, repeat customer. I am subscribed to their annual, live streaming service. You're supposed to get free cover, tickets for shows and a 20% discount on your tab. Tonight was the first time I tried to use these benefits. Our waitress had to take my phone to show the manager our subscription. Guess they do not trust their employees. Bad business #1. The waitress returned saying that the manger wasn't satisfied with the screen cap I pulled up of my account. Dated and serialized since September 2020. Bad business #2. So I told the waitress to just have the manager come to us. We sat and waited, but no one came. There was maybe 50 or 60 people in the place and the manager would not even come to my table to verify my subscription for her waitress. Bad business #3. We felt so bad for the waitress. No one at the door gave us any problems when we showed them on our way in. All the manager had to do was come over, since she wanted to see something on my phone and I did not want to send it off unlocked again. Owners... Fire her or send her for customer service training. In my opinion she is not an asset, as is. I will never again enter this place if she's still there. I'll never tell anyone to go here again either. I'm truly sad that this is the case. Thank God there are other places right up the road to go to instead. read more

Great music and great people! Fantastic atmosphere with live music, personable employees and even better food. Best part is after the live music it turns into a dance club. Friends have had a great time and I can't recommend it enough read more

Went to see the Journey tribute band Departure. Very VERY good band. Too small a venue. Way too crowded and too warm inside! Pricey!!! When ordered Top Shelf drinks, they gave us the cheap stuff ( like we wouldn't know the difference???)Manager exchanged for the real stuff!! Service not very good. Had to flag the waitress down every time we needed something. Wanted to order food but couldn't find a server!! read more

37 Main - Departure - Music Venues Near Me - Buford, Georgia

I would go back again. Loud music, crowds. Our bartender was super busy and super friendly. A very clean place which is super important to me. Kinda quiet area on Saturday night but this place is buzzing. If you arrive after 10pm you may not find a seat. Their was a band which we were not near but we still enjoyed the music behind our conversation. It is loud so talk directly into your partners ear. Did not have any food. I had some beer that he said was named 37? He couldn't really explain it but it was like water. I wouldn't get it again, ever. The only complaint is that their was no drink menu, which is on the web-site. Only 1 dessert on the food menu. read more

I really wish I had an outstanding review for this place but it really wasn't all that great. I ordered the Shrimp Po Boy and it would have been so much more enjoyable except they were super cheap with the sauce, only giving a small dribble down the middle of the bread. I also ordered a Coke (designated driver) and it tasted like Pepsi (except I don't think it was). At the end of the night we asked for the bill and she brought it out for us to check (which seemed odd). My wife, being the ultra honest person she is, pointed out that they missed a $9.50 drink so she took it back and added it... plus a $1.82 "Slice Fee." I don't know what a slice fee is and it seems pretty cheeky that they added it on the final bill without saying a word. ... the hush puppies were good though. If you still go to this place, try them. read more
