Came here for the second time to see TL. We had the best time, what a performer. Wish he would perform here more often. I would be here every time, so would everyone else, to see him. Food is ok, Brittney was our server, she was great. Fun time for our entire group. read more

We live near by. This is a fun place but they always screw you on prices. My food was reasonable and good. My bourbon was $12.50 for bottom shelf. But $9 for draft beer! 2 drinks and 1 appetizer $72 with 20% tip. Service is good and friendly. We showed up late so we didn't pay $5 each cover which is ok. Good place for parties. read more

Definitely a fun place while in town. Went with my mom to see the "Jam Band" and had a great time. Good beer selection and a basic menu kept my stomach full. The music was enjoyable, and I knew most of the songs. They definitely cater to an older crowd for sure. The service was OK, just some confusion on the order, no big deal. Parking is a bit tight, so it helps to get there early. They also have Karaoke rooms available some nights. read more

Best cheesy bread ever!! Our group rented the karaoke room for 2 hours ($120) and had the best night! Melissa checked on us the entire time and provided amazing service. We enjoyed sitting the lounge for the piano show afterwards. We even got a shotski for our friends birthday! 10/10 night! read more

Nahh. Too expensive for what you get. Too loud. Nothing special. Too many other places to go and have a better experience.

Awesome band, 22N, for the anniversary at this Piano Bar. Unfortunately we ended up leaving early because the service was not good. On top of that our waitress (long black hair) seemed to be intoxicated the few times she did remember to check on us. We may try again on a regular night that is not a celebration. read more

88 Live is a cool live music and dueling piano bar in Bradenton. Highly recommend visiting on a night when Emily is performing. She is super talented, funny, and very engaging. She did a great job of interacting with the crowd and getting everyone up and dancing. If you don't go when she is there, you'll be missing something. The food was surprisingly good. All of the food surpassed my expectations. We had the wings, pizza, and salad. The wings were baked to perfection, pizza was thin crust and had good flavor along with the right ratio of sauce to cheese, and the salad was decent. This place is like 3.5 stars for me because the sit down setup isnt my preference, but I'm rounding up because Emily was awesome, service was decent, and the food was good. Check it out. read more

Almost everything...what needs improvement Service we rented the VIP elevated space which was great. The waiter was overwhelmed. He had way too many tables. He was a great guy not his fault... Let's talk about the space the old VIP room had ambience with the white gauze curtains, bathed in blue lights 3 white sofa's & a table in the middle not the same $150?? Elevate the wall that faces the kitchen curtains blue lights? Drape curtains across the mirrors to the chandelier add a couple of small round tables for drinks A little bit more privacy between the two rooms would be nice when there are two different parties read more

The Pizza and drinks were very good . The waitress was friendly but Very busy. They needed more waitresses . The 2 piano players SUCKED ! They could Not sing worth a darn . read more

First time visitor and looking forward to our return. We have eaten at Sage Biscuit and Anna Marie Oyster Bar and never even noticed this place hidden away in the corner. Friends invited us to see Westbound & Down on a Sunday evening, and we had made reservations ahead of time. There is a large bar area and then the seating area, along with a VIP area, which looked comfy!! The tables all have chairs with casters and they are really comfortable. Our server was super friendly and brought our first drinks quickly. While enjoying the great music, we ordered the meatball appetizer and pretzel bites. The meatball was 2 meatballs, each on a baguette. The meatballs were good, but the price for 2 was a bit much. Later on we ordered wings and pizza. We asked for them to be delivered at the same time, but the wings came out 10 minutes before the pizza. The pizza arrived very over cooked, so it was super dry. We didn't have the best food experience, but the venue itself and the music made for a great time. read more

88 Live offers a lively, fun atmosphere with dueling pianos taking center stage, encouraging everyone to sing along. This adults-only spot also features a tasty food menu and other entertainment throughout the week--we even caught a great Beatles band there! There's a $5 cover charge, and reservations are helpful. It's a perfect place to go with friends for a memorable night out, and there's even a photo spot at the entrance complete with fun props. read more

We wish we had discovered 88 Live earlier in our stay in Bradenton! Live entertainment most nights and a really cool vibe. Our server Dawn, was amazing and took good care of us.

Would definitely recommend to make reservations as it fills up quickly. read more

Food, service and ambiance were all great!! They have Bingo a few days which is quite fun!! I highly recommend!!

Have tried to patronize this place since it opened, really love the idea. Tonight was the last straw. After an hour at our table, I went to bar to try and get a second drink. Not that busy, went to bar, ignored. Went to door man, said love this place but thirsty, need a drink to stay. So, he said "then leave", so I did. Going to try and open some competition not so far west and will be sure you do not have an empty drink for 30 minutes after dancing which is supposed to be the idea! Loved the new piano guys SUCH A SHAME read more

we have been locals for 3 year now and decided to try this place out and unfortunately it was not the best experience. to start, our waitress was trying to take care of way too many people. thankfully we were able to go up to the bar and order, but even when we tried to tab out for the couple of drinks we did get from her, she was no where to be found! she also had on a veryy short dress with a low cut top that made us a little uncomfortable. it was pretty crowded, dancing was fun thought and the band was great read more

Staff great. Great pizza and the entertainment awesome Loved dueling pianos and open mic night was great. Good musicians and Henry Lawrence singing was a real treat! read more

Piano Bar Bingo on Saturdays is Adult fun. Presented by MC. John Smith (yes that's his real name) the banter is fun and the food and drinks are a great. Bar food is tasty served quickly. Again, 21 and over as the jokes are Adult in nature. The Cash prizes are sure not small. A great place for a group to meet. Try it out and have some fun ! read more

Awesome place! Food was amazing and so fresh & Hot! Bands fantastic, friendly efficient staff. Had such a wonderful time, returned 2 days in a row. I will be back next trip to FL. People pay much more than $5/cover for parking, concerts etc - just have to put in perspective. Was packed so I would say doing just fine! read more

Sadly I have to change my review of this bar. I wanted to give this bar a chance. I love entertainment and have supported them in their ups and downs. I support Matt and Anne Coates. I'm glad they have finally Gotten their liquor license and kitchen soon. Love the entertainment that comes In but tonight was a disappointment. My husband and I wanted to stop in and see the new changes before we went home after work to support our friends. When my husband walked in towards the bar(didn't know a cover was already in place at 6:45 for an 8:00 show) the partner approached my husband about paying the cover she said if u can't afford the cover then "bye bye"! So very rude and no way to keep your locals who will keep u afloat in the off season! read more

We've been to two events here and I've had a great time. My wife and I have had the calzone and chicken Parm no complaints whatsoever.

We went with the intention of enjoying the entertainment for the evening. We were replaced in the bar area and could not hear or see the entertainment. It was loud for the purpose that we wanted to be there. Expense night. 2 drink minimum on top of $15 each for entertainment we couldn't hear. Little disappointed. It looked like a fun place otherwise. read more

Had a 50th birthday party for my wife here and I couldn't have been happier with the customer service and accommodations. The owner Sherry was fantastic and went the extra mile to make thd night special. Our server Dawn was equally accommodating and on top of things. The food was delicious with a good variety of options and served timely. I would definitely recommend having another event there. Good food, live entertainment, and great service. We will definitely keep this establishment in mind for a good time any weekend. read more

Although a bit over priced, the drinks were ok and food tasted reasonably good. Management and servers were good. We came in for food and drinks just before the Dualing pianos started and not really interested so we ate at the bar. read more

88 Live Piano Bar - The Fulco Family Band - Music Venues Near Me - Bradenton, Florida

It was a great fun night out with a group of friends until the songs became vulgar, obscene and raunchy. So unnecessary. Would have loved to have a girls' night out there, but no longer a possibility. The menu is limited, but better than traditional bar food. Our server was great. Very attentive and checked in frequently. read more
