I was in this bar all of 15 minutes before I was pickpocketed. Few minutes later-another girl in the group was pickpocketed too I had my purse across my body, someone bumped into me and I felt my purse pull..when I went to grab my purse closer-it was open and all my belongings were on the ground (lipstick, receipts, etc) but my phone was taken. I used my other friends phone to shine a light on the ground hoping it had just simply fallen (when I had gotten bumped) but the phone was gone. I went back to my group just to learn within 5 minutes of it happening to me-our friend had her purse snatched at and her phone and all her money was ripped out. The bartenders were more than nice to me about it and took my friends number in case it turned up but those thieves were long gone. These are some sort of professionals. After buying a new phone, I got an alert that my phone had been located in China and all my passwords are trying to be reset-I received texts and calls asking. I called apple and my cellular provider to see if these calls and texts were legit and they all said no. Super sketchy. Beware at this bar...I hope the owners can add security because if it happened to two girls at the bar for no more than 15 minutes, who else knows whats going on there. read more

The short of it is that near the end of our night at Maggie Mae's, a bouncer accosted and physically attacked me for no reason. Stay the hell away from this place. I seriously would not feel safe there and will never set foot there again. The long of it is I was my group's designated driver and had no alcohol at this or other bars on 6th Street. At Maggie Mae's, I had two Sprites. The dancing was fun and our group was having a great time on the third floor/roof. Near closing, I went to get a breath of fresh air off the dance floor. As I'm walking by myself, a bouncer comes at me from behind and gets in my face, saying I'm stumbling around and that I need to leave. I have no idea what he's talking about and say as much, including that I haven't had any alcohol. He doesn't believe me and is still in my face, telling me to get out. This goes on for maybe 15-20 seconds. I'm annoyed but I realize I'm not getting anywhere with this guy so I start putting my jacket on. He then immediately grabs me, turns me around and puts me in a headlock/chokehold, with my jacket half off. He also is now grabbing my arm behind my back and pushing up. I'm of course having trouble breathing but I decide to stay calm and not fight back because I know he's looking for any resistance. He takes me down three flights of stairs in the headlock, arm still pushing on my arm, still telling me I don't belong in the bar. At the door, he finally lets go and pushes me out of the bar onto the street. I'm shaken but turn around to take photo and video of him. As I'm taking a photo of him, he's laughing with his colleague at the door, telling him not to let me back in and yells at me "Be sure to take pictures of the bruises I left on your arms too." Other people this guy manhandles might be too drunk to remember but I was completely sober. Maggie Mae's: where an aggressive bouncer might accost and assault you for standing/walking by yourself. Stay the hell away. read more

Maggie Mae's - This Maggie Mae's employee took me down the stairs in a chokehold before telling me, "Take pictures of the bruises I left on your arms." - Music Venues Near Me - Austin, Texas

I came here as a part of a business trip where the after conference celebration was held. The location was beautiful with a wonderful rooftop bar & view. They also had live music playing, and a lot of great food. The drinks were good and the bartender was very fast, overall it was a great time. I will say that walking back to my hotel from this location in the later part of night wasn't the greatest experience, just because this is a Bar filld street with a bunch of late night activities. However the walk back was fine, you just need to be aware of your surroundings. read more

A perfectly sober woman in her 60s was roughly ejected by two bouncers from Maggie Mae's for walking in without showing an ID. She scoffed at staff's contention that id is required by state law. In fact, that 's a false statement, per TABC: http://www.tabc.state.tx.us/enforcement/age_verification.asp The TABC site says "If the patron is obviously over 21, the establishment may not require any ID at all." Given the way the woman was treated, I would never return to Maggie :Mae's. read more

Do not visit this bar unless you wish to be assaulted by the staff that works here. I will explain my experience below: I'm dancing with my friend when all of a sudden someone runs into my back and spills my drink. I said "watch out man you spilled my drink" and he says "I work here." I told him "it doesn't matter you just knocked my drink down." Then he says "oh is that how it's going to be?" I said "yeah it is." Then he pushes me and another bouncer comes up behind me and chokes me, then pushes me down the stairs. I hear back from my friend outside and she tells me that they grabbed her by the throat and threw her out as well. In conclusion, the only reason to go here would be if you wanted to get into a fight. Otherwise avoid it at all costs. read more

Is it possible to give a place negative stars? Never have I felt more disrespected in my whole life! I moved here 5 years ago and this was a place I always went to and liked. Haven't been there in over a year, but went out celebrating my friends 30th where we were all dressed for a "dirty 30" theme. After spending good money there and having a good time with friends my boyfriend and his friend are asked to leave when all they were doing was sitting down next to us. Did I mention they are also Hispanic and he was wearing a cut off shirt? They said he had been throwing money around all night and accused him of drug dealing. Earlier in the night he threw me a twenty which I went and bought beers and came back with change for him. Yeah really making deals! All of us were escorted out and threatened to be searched which I said bring it on! We were met outside by cops who could tell that talking to us was a waste of time and just as ridiculous as we thought. Basically, I will never go back. I will tell everyone I know to never go here, and if you do be aware of being racially profiled or picked out for what you are wearing and accused of drug dealing, when all you are really doing is being an average paying customer trying to have a good time with friends. AWFUL way to run a business and I wish they would fire their a**hole bouncers who disrespected us. read more

This space is HUGE. It could be so, SO awesome, but it's not. It consists of a bunch of rooms, blasting all different sorts of music. Upon entering (I was following friends to meet other friends here, when I wanted to be over at Mugshots or Mohawk, where the other half of the group was), I was amazed at the space. As an event planner, the possibilities were running through my mind. Multiple rooms?! Multiple themes?! Huge open spaces?! A rooftop bar?! Playing... AHHHHH! Fucking VJ Top-40! Like every other crap bar on 6th Street. Loud, stupid, top-40 videos, ultra-rude bartenders (and I'm always nice to bartenders) and looming/lurking security. Turn offs, all around. The management's philosophy shines through: Bring 'em in, treat 'em like cattle, assume that every single person in the bar is out to steal from you or screw you, have some retarded policies like $10 minimum for credit card purchases, demand ID's with cards when opening a tab... and the list goes on. Every staff member looked mean, angry, or resentful. I was so instantly turned off by the place. Such a great space... it's too bad. Any stars on this review are for the space itself, but since about 1 beer is about all I could last in here, it's generous at that. Maybe it's awesome for a special SXSW show, but on an average night, avoid. read more

6th street jobber bar. On one occasion i brought my older family members for a holiday weekend. Like the lady below said, staff was very dismissive to a woman her in 50's for not showing id! I mean what kind of self righteous rube turns away senior citizens that are actually still going out and supporting local music?? A couple other times it was frat boy night on the patio with some fat f-ck throwing up everywhere. No cute girls and the service is bad. I mean really bad. No one cool goes here trust me. read more

I never gave my 10 year highschool reunion much thought, until I was reading the Facebook earlier this year. It started as a slow trickle of interest; a bare-bones web-site here, a couple queries from friends there, but nothing was really set by the summertime, when I assumed it would be. It ended up being mid-October. At some point our highschool student-class-council-president or whatever she was finally announced that Part 1 of the reunion on a Friday would be a happy hour at Little Woodrow's and a highschool football game. I'll let that last line sink in for a moment, and then I want you to assess how someone like me would approach that. If you thought "I bet Nathan would rather have a root canal in Somalia without any anesthesia than go to Little Woodrow's and a highschool football game for a reunion", then we are on the same page. Now Part 2 on Saturday was to be held at Maggie Mae's. I hate to be "that guy" who picks sh*t with everything (oh, who am I kidding, that's why I love Yelp so much), but really? 6th Street? We're pushing 30; to me, we're more than slightly out of the demo for the drunk-and-rowdy college crowd on 6th Street. I wanted a rooftop patio somewhere in the Warehouse District. And Maggie Mae's? I mean this was a reunion, not a bachelorette party. I wasn't the only one who had these sentiments, but I didn't want to be a Negative Nelly, especially since my best highschool friend Jersey was practically begging me to go. So it was on. And if anyone asked me what I did, I was prepared to answer "I invented Post-Its" and recite the recipe for glue. If you'll recall a few reviews back, I had left a Texas Stars game to head downtown. I parked by Charlie's to avoid the mess and cabbed it to Maggie Mae's. The doorman checked my ID and pointed me to some stairs. And that's when I emerged on top of a rooftop patio. We had the room to the left reserved just for us, with late 90's songs playing, and a slide show with old photos on the wall (someone submitted me licking a cardboard cutout of Wonder Woman, but I didn't notice it). The room was spacious, with a few high tables and bar stools and some couches here and there surrounding a stage. At least I think that's what it was like; nerves and booze made the setting kind of fade in the background. Right off the bat I started reconnecting with old friends. Although with the advent of Facebook, I found it somewhat anticlimactic, as there was not too much to catch up on, since I already know through countless status updates and photo tags what they've been up to. At some point, someone slapped a name-tag on me that said "Fabulous Nathan". But of course. The bartender poured strong, as I expected him to in a situation like this. He had a nice smile. I loved the outdoor rooftop patio both for fresh air and to have a cigarette (all the cool kids still smoke, you know). I saw everyone I wanted to see and few others who surprised me, and all in all, I thought it was a pretty solid little get together. I owe an apology to Maggie Mae's. I thought the venue would be terrible, but it actually turned out to be enjoyable and a pretty good fit for the occasion. Everything seemed to run smoothly, but only the girls who organized it could really vouch for that in detail. Ironically, it was held on the type of rooftop bar/patio that I was envisioning. I'd recommend it for a large party any day. I have mixed feelings on stopping in on a regular day, but with the right group...I'd take it under consideration. Somehow I ended up with a lot of guys' name-tags attached to my shirt at the end of the night, but thankfully not passed out after a tryst in the bathroom like Cameron Diaz at the beginning of "In Her Shoes". I bid farewell to Maggie Mae's...and could only hope they ask me to help plan the 20-Year. read more

Let me preface this review by only stating the obvious: I am Asian. I somehow ended up at Maggie Mae's twice in one night and was remembered by the door man as being the 2nd or 3rd Asian person of the night. Since I was remembered, I was not hassled to show ID. To which I responded (quietly in my head), 'REALLY? I LOOK OF AGE? REALLY? YESSSSSSSSSS!' And then he proceeded to compliment my race. Rarely does this happen in Southern California. For being so huge with a big rooftop patio, three different stages/DJs playing different music, relaxed atmosphere and decent drinks, the no cover on the weekends leaves me little to complain about. read more

FAIL. How I ended up here I have no idea. How the words "dive bar" are in the description I really have no idea. I guess it is not a fail if you are between the ages of 19 and 22 and think some guy falling into the bushes and vomming on himself is a good time. Yes, this happens regularly. Yes, i swore I'd never go back. read more

I love this place bc of the atmosphere and the people who show up. I always have a blast. Tonight was different though. I ordered a few drinks for my friends and me and gave the bartender with the teenage mutant ninja turtles shirt and a green bandana a good tip because that's what I normally do. I finished my drink really quickly because that's what I do and I put the drink back down on the bar. I heard the bartender say "you couldn't find a garbage?!" And he literally sprayed water at me when I was turned around talking to my friends. I couldn't believe it. I love this bar, but that guy sucks. Damn.i added the picture of him to the photo section when I asked about it. read more

It is your typical dirty sixth bar, but they have one thing that makes them stand out. Maggie Mae's has the worst bartenders I have ever witnessed. Their hygiene is lacking and so is their customer service. I would avoid this bar at all costs. read more

In all my visits to Austin I don't recall ever being to Maggie May's. Not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing. During SXSW my friend and I ended up at this bar quite a few times. In one day probably saw seven bands. I loved the rooftop deck, although it was really cold outside. The upstairs inside stage was pretty cool too. There were bands playing downstairs too. I thought the building itself was pretty cool. The posters of old rockers on the walls were a nice touch. I couldn't help wondering if everyone on the walls had played at Maggie Mays at some point. I should read up on the history of the bar. All in all we had a good time. Granted it was SXSW, but still. I'd like to come back some time. read more

Haven't been here since college 20 yrs ago, and one of the worst experiences I've had for SXSW. I flew in some clients went to the bar and ordered 5 drinks as I was paying, btw we were all over 30, and the bartender said I can only serve you two drinks. Now in my 30 plus years going to bars and clubs, I have always ordered rounds for my clients and have NEVER been treated and embarrassed like that. This is not the place to go on 6th when visiting as there are many other venues with super friendly staff members and the bartender also seemed drunk.. Btw, there were 7 of us and I ordered 7 drinks, all were there, I was just paying! Wasn't asking for 7 drinks with only me there, everyone was at bar in front of bartender. Went elsewhere and bought clients drinks all present with no problems. read more

If you come to Austin and don't visit this fine establishment and meet the coolest bartender in the land, you're a fool. And it will only cost you the price of one drink to learn this lovey lady's name... (See pic) read more

Maggie Mae's - Music Venues Near Me - Austin, Texas

Hit or miss. I've been here on nights when its jammed packed and the music makes you want to move, but usually its half empty drinks are poured with a light hand. I was recently there till about 2:30...only a few tables down from the staff on the upper deck. They saw us, we saw them and everything was dandy. Then one of them came over with a pissy attitude and demanded that I pour out my drink and leave because of the strict TABC guidelines. I slowly gulped my last few inches of vodka in the glass, grabbed my guests hand and took my time down the stairs. I should have left sooner anyways because of my strict quality of venue guidelines..but ya live ya learn. read more

Maggie Mae's has been around for what seems like ages: smack dab in the middle of a row of mostly forgettable sixth street bars, the stone facade on the inside lends the place a shade of cool, if the often standard fare around here does not. One odd thing about this place: it's two levels (that's not the odd part), but on the second level you have to essentially walk across the stage to get to the bathrooms, which are off a pathway to the left. I've yet to see it, but you know some drunkish yahoo has decided to get in on the act via the fact that he could walk right by the bass player at some point. Even so, going in for a SXSW party or a football watching party or some other such large gathering (which seems mostly why I've ended up in here days past) is pretty accommodating, if not terribly special. The stage is situated in a kinda corner downstairs, and the interior gets loads of light, which can highlight some of the rock facade within in a pretty nifty way. But at the end of the day, it's difficult to get around what this place usually is, which is an average bar band on sixth. It's not a shot bar, and we're all thankful for that (never moreso than a day after SXSW passes), and it's fine, mostly. But there's not much to make it stand out. And that probably means more happenstance happenings than otherwise. See ya in about sixth months, Maggie Mae's. I feel certain you'll stay exactly the same. read more

I like the rooftop. I like the live music. The margarita was too lemon-y for me. But it was only 5 bucks. I also got a water. It was 109 degrees, I'm dying of dehydration. We sat on the rooftop for 30 minutes. We decided to go get food. I took my water out with me. As we we're leaving, the dude at the door, snatches the drink out of my hand. I explained that it's water. He then says, "nothing comes in, nothing goes out." I'm new to the 6th Street scene. You don't have to treat me like an idiot. He could have easily asked me to give him the cup. Say, "Ma'am, I'm sorry but we can't let you take the cup outside of here." Oh okay! Sorry. Instead, No words, just grabbed it right out of my hands. Like a rude jerk. I'm not coming back, there are so many more places in Austin. I won't be talked to or treated this way ever again. read more

My dearest Maggie Mae... You and I don't know each other very well. I s'pose alcohol might have a lil' something to do with that (yes, those were my panties I almost left behind on your puddled and muddied bathroom floors). It was a one-night stand after all - how well should I *want* to get to know you? I was just an out-of-towner looking for a..."good time." NSA, if you will. Mom always taught me to never judge a book by its cover - and that's probably a good thing 'cause a looker you are not. But I'm a sucker for a down 'n dirty good time with some cheap booze to boot and Maggie, my love? You certainly fit the bill. You kept me laughing, dancing, drinking and sweatin'...the shots were a pourin' and beer was a poundin' and before I knew it you had me showing off some moves on stage, in front of a crowd and amongst a group of musicians. Seems I landed myself a bit of an exhibitionist for the night. Naughty girl. The upstairs patio was a perfect place to catch a breather between...sessions. After a cursory glance of the action on 6th street from my view on the balcony, I gulped down the remnants of my cider and joined you for some more action downstairs. More Cowbell was the highlight of the night and I'm not gonna lie...it was the perfect soundtrack to our rowdy evening. They definitely put the "magic" in the moment and kept things moving in the right direction. Without them, I think our night would've probably been cut a helluva lot shorter than either of us would have wanted. So Maggie, thanks for the memories and 'til then, a toast to you: "Here's to those who sit when they pee. We love 'em in leather, We love 'em in lace, But we love 'em the best when they sit on our face!" read more

Came here on Halloween around 8PM and spent the entire night on the rooftop. At the time, the crowd was largely slightly older - mid to late thirties and above and the costumes were pretty tame. As the night wore on, however, the venue got packed and there were tons of young people in fun costumes. Drink prices were decent and the bartenders were fast and friendly so that there was never a long wait. It has a good dance floor with great music for dancing. The bouncers did a good job with crowd control too because the bar was never too packed and it was comfortable all night until I left around 2AM. LA needs to take notes. read more

Imagine a pimped out Frat House on the night of one of their more crowded parties...alas, you have Maggie Maes. Maggie Maes is right in the middle of all the happenings on East 6th and is usually bursting at its seems with people and vibes. The more western side is slightly dive-y with a music stage and side bar. Great for sitting down and not bein gbale to hear the person next to you. The next room has a bar in the back, a few tables and a staircase perpetually full of people going up and down and the top of the bar is a big clusterfu*k of a dance party with a room for dancing (and other bar) and outside dancing patio. If you're nearly 3/4's done with your night and have the booze in your system to keep you going, Maggie Maes has the potential to be a fun spot but mostly it's kind of just a loud cluster of college and very young profeshes. I've been to better. read more

I'm a sucker for roof top drinking and Maggie Mae's has a very large outdoor area to do just that! Places like this really increase Austin Live music per square feet stats. There was 2 totally different bands there at the same time! One downstairs and one upstairs. Totally different vibe too which was cool. Speaking of per feet stats, I counted 3 bars total within the walls of Maggie Mae's. 2 up top which is nice. One was extremely packed the other not so much. They also had lots of televisions everywhere and they were all playing the same thing: Patton. What a weird thing to show at a bar on a Saturday night. Seems like if you're gonna show a war movie at a bar it should be something like full metal jacket or even Jacob's Ladder. However I may has missed the joke because it was too clever for me in my intoxicated state. read more

So I've been here every weekend for the last 3 weekends, not so much by choice. Apparently this is where my work friends like to hang out and even though its not my style AT ALL, I keep ending up here. Weird. The good: The upstairs patio has a huge screen upon which you can watch whatever they happen to be playing, two bars, and its a good area to listen to a band AND carry on a conversation. Also, there are at least two more bars downstairs, the bartenders are friendly, and the drinks are a decent price for 6th street. The bad: The crowd. A bunch of drunk douches trying to mack on every girl in a skirt, and bunch of drunk girls not even old enough to be in a bar. No one of any real substance, no one that can seem to carry on a conversation past "I'm so trashed!!!" "NO IM SO TRASHED!!!" The ladies bathroom upstairs only has one stall working, out of THREE. Ugh. Done. read more

OMG. This place is horrible. It's a straight up dive bar, which is normally okay, but this place is just freakin boring. Came in here during a conference visit to Austin at the Omni and we were looking for some bars to kick back in. We came in, we drank one really cheap beer that everyone kept recommending that tasted pretty good for its dirt cheap price, but we had to go. The music is horrible, the DJ that was spinning wasnt taking requests, which I think he should have been doing considering how dead the place was. He basically played the worse top 40 songs from this decade and the last, i mean its cool if the crowd reacts, but nobody was reacting. It was pretty funny though watching the girls next to us attempt to dance on the bar, which was the worse coordination ever, I thought they were gonna fall on the way down, but they got lucky. This place is lame, but so were a lot of the other bars on this street. read more

Pretty descent bar. I have seen some nice free shows here, and I love their upstairs patio which has a great view of the skyline, and is a good spot for people watching, one of my favorite downtown things on a Thurs-Sat night. The staff has always been very friendly and it usually isn't to crowded like some of the other bars around it. read more

Terrible slow service, took forever to get a drink, then didn't allow us to use the bathroom at 1:59am and said they were closed. Classless and would never visit again! read more

"Both of my b*tches drive Range Rovers None of my b*tches can stay over Both of my b*tches look good as f*ck Your b*tch look like a boogawolf" Yeah, that was pretty much the theme song of my friend's SXSW experience. Back in the day, my girls and I used to hit the clubs super hard. We definitely all accumulated some moves from our clubrat days which we still show off on occasion. Well that's sort of what happened when my best guy friend was visiting me from MI. We ended up at Maggie Mae's on the patio to escape the crowds and discovered there was a "dance party" in an off-shooting room. DANCE PARTY?!!! I AM SO THERE! So we decided to check it out and initially they were playing songs that were modern day trendy. We picked a seat and sat back to watch the lack of moves on said dance floor. Well suddenly the theme changed and Notorious B.I.G's "Hypnotize" came on and was immediately followed by DMX's "Ruff Ryders Anthem" and it was on. Once they played "Like a Pimp" I had to hit that dance floor and show people how it's done. To my friend's credit he has seen my A-game dance moves pulled out on an ill-advised night of drinking in Toronto and at many a Greek life party back in the day, so he wasn't too impressed with what I brought to the table that night. Whatever, everyone else was. To this place's credit they play some pretty catchy random songs including Mickey Avalon's "My D*ck" and I was the only patron that knew that song.... you should listen to it sometime. Regardless, they do play a solid music selection and it's worth checking out for the rooftop patio alone. I'll leave you with this wisdom: "My d*ck is like an m-16, Yo' d*ck, broken vending machine" read more

One of the rooftop bars on 6th. Drinks are pretty cheap and has a pretty large rooftop are to lounge. Good place to hangout and catch up when the weather is nice read more

I came here with a couple friends for a couple beers. The space is alright, there is a large bar and live music on the patio. I thought it was a little weird that they are connected to another bar and go to that bar to get many of their drinks. Also, the bartender was eating behind the bar, which is ok, but not the most professional thing in the world. We only had beers, so I can't judge them on that. Overall, this place is ok. read more

Among the many bars on 6th street Maggie Mae's caught my eye. I liked the fact It looked like they had an accessible patio on the second floor you could enjoy with a drink and people watch. The fact the second floor had comfortable seating areas, and its own bar was also a plus. The negatives are what was on the ground floor. We were here on a sunday early evening with about 20 other customers total. Understandable that its not a very busy time of day hence the lack of staff working. So we waited quite a while for a drink, no big deal. Wish I would have known about the 2nd floor bar from the beginning as they had no customers and were very nice. My problem was the entertainment. The musician playing on the ground floor outdoor patio was completely shit faced. You could see beside his bar stool he played the guitar on was a beer bucket full of 6-8 empties. The customers kept buying him shots which were given to him in a clear plastic cup. next to his empty beer bottles you could find about 15-20 empty clear plastic shot cups. He would never start and finish his song without stopping 10 times or more to make a crude sexual comment about a patron or his wife. Yeah, a few jokes are welcomed and funny but when every other word is swearing and or some kind of sexual comment it not only is disrespectful especially to the female crowd its just distasteful. We watched him not only openly hit on but try to take home two of the women customers too. Normally I wouldn't care but this guy took it over the top and needs to be replaced if you ask me. read more

Been here several times usually to see Alan Haynes Play. He is a world class guitar player who puts on a good show for the tourists and locals. He and Tessmer are great at going into the audience with their wireless guitars and wowing everyone with their musicianship. Haynes gets the greatest strat tone of anyone playing Austin these days. It literally warms my heart. Birdlegg is really good too. He's definitely an entertainer and plays some clean traditional blues. He's a vocalist/harmonica player and usually has a good guitar player with him. The rooftop can be fun and the last time I was there it looked like they had a new projection big screen TV installed. Overall, MMs is a good place to start your adventure on sixth street because it has something for most people. read more

Terrible bouncers. Just completely rude; overly aggressive for no reason.

I don't go to east 6th often, but when I do, I make it a point to stop by. This a great venue that really uses the space they have to make multiple bar areas. The first floor has patio area with seating, two separate bars, and a stage with live music. The second floor is essentially a large rooftop "club" over looking 6th street. There is a decent sized dance floor, several bars, and plenty of elbow room. Connected to this rooftop area is another somewhat plush club/bar area where there's usually a dj or live band. Each of these areas I described are pretty different from each other so it's like getting to check out multiples places in one bar. read more

They made a stink about our group (all with a bought and paid for drink) taking a picture with an empty flask.

Maggie's gets 5 stars this time because of the extra great service my friends and I experienced Sunday night. We organized a Patriotic Pub Crawl, and included Maggie Mae's (one of the "thirteen original colonies"). We stepped into the sidebar at Maggie Mae's. Brian, our bartender at MM's, pretty much made the crawl the best ever. Not only were our drinks fabulous (and well priced!), he also participated in the crawl. There was a riddle battle and dirty joke contest. Pretty much set the bar for the evening, and I can honestly say none of the other drinking establishments matched up. If you go to Maggie's, look for Brian. read more

Maggie Mae's deserves 4 stars for this reason: I always stop in when I end up on 6th street. Reasons I end up on 6th: out of town visitors, someone's birthday, maybe I just feel like spending a lot of money and going wild... Anyway, this place is huge. Downstairs with a band, upstairs with a dance floor, a few loungey areas on the edges, basically you can find somewhere you fit in. They also have quite a few bars, so you won't wait long even on a Saturday night. No reason not to try it out, especially if you want live music. I've never heard a band here that made me run away (unlike OTHER bars in the area!) and they usually don't have cover. read more

Met up with a friend's coworker here after work. Bud Lights are cheap during happy hour. The mixed drinks are watered down. There is live music at night. A roof top available for seating, drinking and yelling. Other than that, this is pretty average place. Nothing special. read more

The bar itself is beautiful, the live music is always great, and the place is very open, you can even go to the rooftop to get away from everything. However, the customer service is lacking. You have to search them out to get served, I found myself begging to be served on the rooftop, the beer was ok but good customer service makes me spend more money at a bar, there was a huge lack of servers too, one server for a whole floor of people on a busy night? I was begging them to take my money but still had a hard time. Not good, but I love the atmosphere and you need more bodies on the floor to collect money, this place should also invest in some ladies as servers, it was all guys when I went. Better beer would give this place an extra star and better customer service another. I will give this place another chance though because I really did like the layout of the place, the customer service I did receive was friendly but I still shouldn't have to be all Sherlock Holmes looking for someone to give money to. read more

Don't go in here unless you wan't to be harassed by a group of hoodrats. Walked in here with about 10 people for my birthday. I had been given a nice seasonal Christmas beer with a big picture of Santa on it. Upon walking in i presented it to the doorguy and he said it was cool unopened. I had to explain this to like 4 other guys while in the bar until the one weasel just came up and grabbed it out of my GF's purse. I was livid to say the least but the entire pack of monkeys couldn't get it through their thick skull it was unopened and legal. They just started moving away with the beer. They almost got more than they asked for. The door guy later bald faced lie to the other bouncers that he let me in with it and I was kicked out. I brought an entire group of paying customers into their shithole bro bar. read more
