The best time to go if you can manage it is in the mornings when the old men are in, they're always a hoot! They have a pool table, two dart boards, a patio, and live music fairly often.

Not the type of place for everyone or anyone - but it's the BEST type of place for ME!…read more This place was a blast, but it wouldn't have amounted to anything .... without the talented local bands breathing life into the building. Worth mentioning and surprisingly pleasing, was the free parking right across the street. Casual place, for me anyways. What may scare the average person was amusing to me. I liked the aesthetic of the place, there is notable paintwork on the walls of the interior that's very skilled and original. Logo stickers from all sorts of bands that have played at Buzzbin were patched all over the walls and various surfaces, creating a one of a kind territorial 'quilt' - displaying local history and personal pride. The place homes quite an impressive collection of pinball machines and other arcade games, to pass the time between band setup switches. Necessities like the restroom was fairly maintained and properly stocked. There are a few surprisingly comfy couches, a fairly roomy bar, and plenty of space inside the building to sit down, stand, or thrash about! I found pleasure in the bar. The bartender was patient and very helpful in finding a unique tasty drink I would love. I loved her recommendation for the "Gummy-bear". A raspberry vodka with a delicious sour bite and mixture of other candy like flavors, with the addition of bubbly Sprite. It was so enjoyable, you could actually easily ignore the taste of liqueur or forget about its presence all together. I was basking in a nice buzz after only a few drinks, to the steady cascade of free - quality musical entertainment - some preformed by my very own friends.... and appreciating the polite company of awesome like-minded and fascinating folk. Boy, for the hard ass looking people that come here to mosh up front during an intense show, they sure can be sweet.... To clarify, people are having a blast, bashing into each other with reckless abandon and dancing, play fighting with prop weapons and letting off steam... but when anyone got shoved too hard and fell on the floor, multiple people were always quick to help you back onto your feet. I won't lie, when I fell on my ass the first time by a good shove, I was concerned about being trampled on. But that never happened to anyone. No hard feelings, nothing held back, just good rough fun during the (Exostra) show I attended. People playfully knocking each other around, roaring, head banging - just generally ..... releasing. You know? I couldn't ask for a better n' fun way to recharge on a Saturday night, before another mundane work week ahead. I wouldn't hesitate to delight in another night of fun in the city, at the Buzzbin.

This bar is awesome and our bartender was amazing. I am leaving this post to review their karaoke…read moredj from last night 4/4/2026. I believe his name was ryan but I'm not sure. This DJ was extremely rude to us. On our first song he scolded us for putting songs in the queue, which is the point of karaoke. I have no issue with interchanging folks to sing so that it's fair. He made many rude comments when we were on stage. After a few of us performed he said "okay now let's get the energy up on this next song". The song in question was 'you're a mean one Mr. Grinch'. Which I imagine was pretty embarrassing for him. Every other song was him and his friend singing and unfortunately they sounded horrible. I like this bar a lot but I'll never expose myself to a terrible karaoke evening like this again. I really hope auricle finds a karaoke dj who is talented and kind.

What an interesting little piece of history this place is. Wow. I watched two bluegrass bands play…read morelast night and it was an amazing experience. I do not like bluegrass music, but my dad and uncle do. Apparently, they've been going here for years! Who knew? My love for live music overruled my dislike for bluegrass and I enjoyed the bands' music and talent. Joe Mullins & The Radio Ramblers was the headliner and boy were they talented. Their fiddler Jason Barrie was amazing! These guys were very good and fun to listen to. Each song told a story. I felt like I had taken a ride in the Delorean back to the past in the historic Pennyroyal Opera house. The opera house itself hasn't changed much and I was fascinated by it. Take a look at the names and dates of some of the acts that have played here in my photos! There was a $12 cover charge, free pie (suggested donation), and you can meet and greet the bands. This was a night I'll never forget.

I'd see another concert there but there are definitely pros and cons. Pros: -Intimate, cozy space. I love that you can wait on the first level before doors open -Super clean bathrooms -Good sound mixing Cons: -The floors in the concert hall are awful. They shook substantially when people walked and were very noisy. The gentleman behind me was a toe tapper (no shame! Totally normal) but the floors made it seem like Godzilla was wrecking a city behind me -Volunteers served as ushers and they were... Confused. We were taken to the wrong seats (even side instead of odd) and the guys taking tickets were similarly befuddled -The layout of the plastic chairs in the back of the bottom section felt haphazard.
