I attended a few weeks ago for a Black Angels concert. This was my first time to visit Tulips. The venue is small and gets quite crowded in the headliners go onstage. It's a fun, slick design. There are two bars, one in the front and one in the back. The front bar was fast and efficient. I did not ever wait long for a drink. The prices were average. Looking forward to attending another concert here. read more

First time at Tulips, such a great spot for personal small intimate shows. Some friends and I saw the great Jay Buchanan perform and the sound quality was good during his performance. We did attend an all seated show, only downfall was people standing around in the same area. There was a server who kept talking to a table in the back which was so distracting. Customer service wasn't the best, but the venue was great! read more

So first off, it is a cool venue and deceptively big and sound is pretty good. That's the 3 stars. 0 stars for beverage prices and 20% auto gratuity. Will never purchase another drink and will opt for drinking at the car before going in if I am desperate enough to see a band here. 2 yuenglings were 25.00, 2 Estellas were 25.00. Knock it off with those insane beer prices! read more

I'm a sucker for a smaller venue with a great bar and this is THE place to go for both! The concert we attended was for a band I haven't heard of before called Skinshape, who I was pleasantly surprised with. It was such an intimate venue that we were able to really enjoy the music up close and personal. Merch was easily accessible as well as the bar during the show. Loved this venue! read more

Came here for a Lover tribute show, and the performer was amazing as always. The venue wants to overcharge for canned water and not provide tap water. It's a cheap way to prey on patrons. Cocktails were strong and tasty, but you'll for sure pay for em. Bartenders are sweet. read more

A really great venue! i read reviews about the bar right in front of the stage being a little pricier, so i chose to take the short walk to the bar by the outdoor patio, which was a great way to keep the night going. i also loved the water dispenser they had! although there was an occasional spill on the dance floor, i have no complaints about the cleanliness. i'd definitely visit again for another show. read more

I love to go to shows here! please come check it out for yourself. they're the only place booking bands in our area that are fringe, popular, experimental, newbies, obscure and eclectic. don't listen to the other reviews who are living to see places like this gem get bad reviews because they didn't stir their drink 3 times like they asked them to or something ridiculous like that. go here. listen to music. be happy. read more

Good, small venue with a reasonable price for tickets. Drinks are more expensive than a bar but less expensive than a traditional concert venue. Beers at $9ea and cocktails around $15. Sound is good and there is a food truck out back. Clean bathrooms. Most of the venue is general admission (standing) but they do sell tables. There are two types of tables: bar tables and venue tables. The venue tables have more comfortable bar chairs but are otherwise the same as the bar tables. Tables are first come first serve. We did not realize when purchasing our tickets that you are reserving a SEAT at the table, not the table itself. There are 4 to a table, so if your party is less than 4, you will be sharing the table with other guests. If you arrive too late, there may not be space for your group to sit together, even if you bought a "bar table". Also note, two of the bar tables have no view of the stage and one has an obstructed view (big pillar). With this in mind, the venue tables seem like a safer choice, assuming you care about sitting down. I think there are probably some changes the venue could make to improve the seating situation. Now let's talk about their absurd water policy. They do not offer tap water; only Liquid Death for $4 a can. There is a sign that explicitly states this. The policy extends to all paying customers - it's not just a "restroom for customers only" type policy... you can be buying $60 worth of drinks, hand them a cup, and they literally will not pour you a tap water. We ended up just using the cups from our first round of beers and filling up with water in the bathroom, but this is kind of a gross thing to expect customers to do. If bartenders don't want to waste time filling waters all night, they need to install a spout to the side of the bar so people can fill up themselves. Charging $4 for every water discourages hydration, which actually seems like kind of a safety issue for an establishment that sells lots of liquor and no food. Overall it's a great place with 5 star potential, but we hope they can work out the kinks of the seating and water situation. read more

Terrible venue for concerts. Concert opened doors at 7, but not even VIP was let in until 9 or so WHILE IT WAS FREEZING. The openers were done wrong and only had time for maybe 2 songs that were a minute long. There was no reason for them to be cut so short just because of the venue. Also, Jimmy Brown and Raav and the producers had to constantly tell the people in the sound booth to turn up their mic sounds. SideNote: it is a huge problem if you can't hear yourself on the front monitor or speaker during a concert as a performer!! Free parking The bar is okay and the vibe the place has when it comes to looks is nice, service is good, no deals on drinks during concerts and as a matter of fact you can count on this place up-pricing everything during concerts as every venue does. . . read more

Tulips - Concert playing - Music Venues Near Me - Fort Worth, Texas

Great small venue for local and up and coming bands. However, they charge for water...FOR REAL! You can get a cup of ice and fill it up in the bathroom from your local Fort Worth water (which Dallas even enjoys) yea easy, BUT you have to BUY a can of water at the bar $4. The bartenders are not allowed to fill your cup WITH WATER at the bar. I find this wildly weird. However to be honest i don't get out enough maybe times have changes but WOW! WATER!! "Water the juice of life!!" WATER from the bar? read more

Oooh Tulips. I liked Tulips. I arrived a few minutes early, and the door was unlocked, but I waited until the stoke of 4 to walk in when they were officially open. I'm not trying to be that guy. It is on St. Louis next to the little tea shop and book store. But know this! It is bigger on the inside. I was floored when I walked into a much larger event space than I was expecting. Not to mention, they have a badass patio that is good at blocking you from the wind. The bartender seemed new to the establishment, but not behind the bar. I asked her about specials, she didn't know them off the top of her head, but found out. Then she showed her skill while making our cocktails. It is ok not to know something, if you're ready to figure it out. And she makes a good drink. I started with a Dylan 75. I am a sucker for a French 75, and everyone's twist on one. This one is made with tequila. I like tequila. I also appreciate a pretty cocktail in a coupe glass. I followed it up with a palomita. As I am a fan of a paloma, which is my summer jam. Their cocktails are $7 during happy hour, they have a stage and host some pretty good shows. The decor is cool, they really seem to be welcoming and supportive to the historically disenfranchised, and they make a hell of a drink. Also, I don't know if it is the owner, manager, appointed furniture mover, but the man making things happen seems to be informed and friendly. And knows his history of the coupe. read more

This place is always a great time. I've only been for bands and seeing live music. The sound is really great there. The staff is professional and nice. I did have the worst margarita ever there last night, but that's situational. 2 shots were almost 30$ which Is crazy. It's a off the area dive bar prices should reflect that read more

Bought tickets to see The Texas Gentleman and found out once we were there that they were no longer playing. We paid $70 for two tickets and spoke with Jason the owner who was unwilling to offer a refund. Such poor principle... read more

What a great place for live entertainment! Drinks were affordable and the staff was amazing!

Drink prices are absolutely ridiculous. We somehow spent $177 (just two of us!!) over a four hour show. Unfortunately, my husband didn't get a receipt to see how in the world it added up. The tickets for the show we went to were $15 - there is no way Tulips can charge the same prices for drinks as the big venues where tickets are in the hundreds. Wanted to love this place, but we won't be back. read more

This review is derived from my experience specifically going to shows at Tulips, one in September 2022 and one in January 2023. I don't drink so I can't speak for the bar but I have read multiple other reviewers who have been overcharged. At the September show, water was free both from the tap and in bottles. This has clearly changed because I asked for a water this month and was told that I would have to pay $3.25 for a generic plastic bottle. I asked for tap instead and was denied. This is against regulations and could easily be dangerous with so many people drinking in an enclosed space. I'm very disappointed. Another thing for concertgoers, the queuing system here is nonexistent. There is no line and instead they have people stand in the bar until doors when they just lift three huge curtains to open the standing room. This would be ideal for small artists but it creates a confusing and stressful environment for attendees. Consider this before going to a show here and if you are there early then talk to the other folks "in line" with you for a better shot at getting a good spot. Doors are basically just a mad dash to the front of the stage which sucks. Someone described it as "like the Hunger Games." My main gripe is the water issue. If this is fixed I will change my review but it is just a blatant example of negligence and greed. read more

I like some of the shows they have in the venue but I won't be drinking there again. The drinks suck, they are overpriced, and they snuck in a 20% auto gratuity. I wasn't part of a huge group, was just buying for me and one other person. I was about to tip more before I noticed it on the check. It seemed shady and disrespectful. read more

Great venue to listen to live music, make a button and catch some rays on the patio all why never missing a "beat"! read more

Came here for the Horton heath concert. Drinks were an overpriced rip off. No where to sit so we had to stand for 2 hours.. Female bouncer at the front marked our hands with toxic sharpie ink then told me to leave my purse in the car out in the dark. Rude rude rude. Freezing cold outside with no heaters and nowhere to sit inside. All the women at the front were rude to us. Did they hire these women from San Quinton. They treated us like prison inmates entering jail. Horrible place, rude service. Guess what tulips: without my purse I can't buy drinks!!!! Hey tulips: there are safe markers used to write on skin they use for marathons. Stop marking kids with toxic sharpies on their skin. What is wrong with you. read more

Fun Bar with great variety of drinks! Nice venue to take in local artists or mini concerts. It's spacious and has a patio about back. You can hear the music throughout without feeling cut off from the main bar area. Just a little gem in Fort Worth! read more

Had a horrible experience here. Paid good money to see a concert. Another attendee became offended by us trying to get a better spot to view the show while also respecting everyone else's space. Security pulled us aside and made many false accusations of what was said and occurred. Our side of the story was completely I acknowledged and we were forced out of the venue despite being cordial and having completely rational explanations for what actually occurred. I was a fan of this venue but will never be back due to the inadequate security not doing their due diligence to prove we deserved to be removed. Last time I checked, we had freedom of speech in this country, so even if what she accused of us was actually said, we should have been allowed to say, or at least be heard out when giving our version of events. I hope no other bands I enjoy play this venue because I will not be attending due to this experience. As if it wasn't bad enough, security was trying to act tough like they were about to get physical with me over some words. I wasn't bothering anybody except an apparently extremely insecure individual that thought we were making fun of her. If I could give it less than one star, I would. Will never be back. Hire some security staff that actually know how to preform their jobs. read more

Went to Tulips the other day for a small show with my female. Absolutely charming venue, nice sound system, and intimate setting. The bar itself is especially impressive and features craft cocktails, craft beer, and heigh-tier spirits. Was actually quite impressed with some of the offerings, such as the Nitro Negroni which is a cold brew coffee infused negroni with Ford's gin, Campari, and Dolin's sweet vermouth. Extremely balanced, extremely delicious. Myself being a mixologist native to Los Angeles, this wasn't the type of thing I expected to find at some little bar and venue in Fort Worth Texas. That said, all of the credit is owed to Garrett Anderson, Tulips' Bar Manager. Having run a bar myself (and not to mention having visited many others all over the world), I must express satisfaction in recognizing that, damn, this girl really knows how to build and run a world class bar program. Very nice, very impressive. If you're ever in the area, I highly encourage you to visit Tulips. If not for a show, the music, or charming aesthetics, then simply to have a drink. It'll definitely be worth your time. read more

Check your bill! I was charged $160 for two drinks. Owner admittted it was wrong but would not refund the difference. Offered to comp tickets then never emailed them. I don't know why it's so hard for some people to just do the right thing. read more

Pretty dope venue. I always enjoy my time here, you got burgers, drinks and music. Plus the staff is chill.

This bar and its drinks are awesome! I LOVE the bartenders here! I have been here across the span of 2 or 3 years... I think it is the owner, andrew?, that is exceptionally off-putting. I have never seen the same bartender more than twice. And have watched bartenders move out of his way. I have watched him refuse people TAP WATER during a kid-friendly event. To the point of refusing to give imbibing-people tap water, merely to have them pay for bottled water, that, in my opinion is gross negligence against your Own Staff!! People come up, needing water for a drunk friend and you say no, to try to make money on them, while blatantly pouring water, from the gun, on the metal bar spill rails where the staff builds their drinks. Props to anyone who can handle this man, go back to photography! read more

We bought a VIP table and all tables were full when we arrived, we were told "sorry I wish there was something we could do about that but we would have to ask every person in here for there ticket". Terrible business. If you sell tickets with a table number.....put a number on the table. Instead the venue puts "reserved" on every table and anyone that walks in can have whatever table they choose. read more

I found this venue to be pretty nice. Entry process was easy; did not search my bag although it was small. Almost left it in the car because I read other reviews but they gave me no issues at all with it. The lines for drinks got SUPER long, they only had three bar areas open during the show- two terminals at the main and then one on the patio. Overall would come here for a show again. read more

Amazing place for a fun cheap show. Never ate the food by the venue is incredible and intimate. Saw the canons there with madi sipes and the painted blue. Great joint! read more

Overpriced. Got ripped off on the amount of pour in our drinks. Bartenders were friendly enough, but tried play it off as they spilled half the shot outside of the drink. Cool aesthetic, but that's pretty much it. Also, this was off of my third attempt to even enter the building. One of the first two times, I declined to pay a fat cover charge for a tattoo event that I did not care to attend. read more

We went on Dolly Diva Night! It was a fabulous time. Will go again if they have another one!

First time at Tulip's , won't go back, packed with no seating options except outside , with no heaters. All reviews I read talked about how comfortable the place was not tonight!! Standing room only which was limited. The acoustics we're also bad. I have seen Mike & the Moonpies multiple times and they sound much better. I would have paid more for a nicer environment. Sad!! read more

Ridiculous and racist! For no reason they took my nephew's ID claiming it was a fake. The doorman said it "looked fake" without any proof. He didn't run it, didn't have a light, nothing. He asked for address after saying it was a fake, which was an old temporary address that nephew couldn't remember. He was also a big jerk and said they were keeping his legal and only form of ID. Cops had to be called in order to get back. read more

This one of the best experiences I have had during covid and really before that. The food is absolutely fantastic and the bartenders (Tia, Emily, and one other that I didn't get a name on this Monday evening. We were just going to pop in for one of the fantastic Rubens but the place was so awesome and the staff was so badass that we spent most of our evening there, well actually all of our evening. We are older but we were totally welcomed into a younger atmosphere. Thank you to the staff for making us feel like we were one of y'all. We don't like being old and we left so happy feeling like we were part of the crowd. If you have read this far, please go. Our local businesses that are great deserve to grow. This one definitely does. 5 stars plus. Love you guys. read more
