Any business taking part in Agenda 21 deserves no stars. The management are obviously are cowards or greedy. How much in subsidies do you get for implementing covid passport checks? Very much a legally questionable process and you carry on with it because the government said so? Not a place Ill be recommending to anyone

My wife and I toured the backrooms and the venue of the Button Factory with the The Irish Rock n Roll Museum Experience tour. The stories of the different band riders was entertaining. There was a band here while we were on the tour, so it was neat to see everything in use.Im sure this place is great when packed!

Discrimination at their door. Supporting a two tier society for entry. Do not recommend, another for the Boycott list. Shame on them.

A must see tour for lovers of Music memorabilia and experience the walls of a recording studio where legends have recorded some well loved music albums. Would recommend to all music lovers seeing Dublin for the first time to experience this fantastic tour. Would return again just for the experience and great stories.

More a pub than a club. Very chill and bar type location with high tables etc. Sound system is decent and it closes too early.Perfect for a Wednesday night though.

Great medium sized venue in the center of Dublin right off the Temple Bar. During the show there can be a merchandise stand in the hallway, cloakroom (paid €6 for 2 jackets), bar has decent selection of beer on the tap (prices around €5-6).

A nice venue to see artists playing. The acoustic / sound in this venue is good and the atmosphere of the place is cozy.The bar is too small and not easily accesible if there are many people in the stage area. The prices for pints are around 8€.Overall, a good experience here.

Came for a concert. Alcohol prices are about steep but there are two bars, one upstairs and one down which means you get served quickly. Not much security or people managing the crowd which would of made the concert better as there was alot of people misbehaving

Recently there have been more and more punk gigs on here and its a great venue for a show!The bars are never too busy as there is one in the venue and an overflow one outside the main hall. The sound quality is great and the stage is big and the viewing for the average person is visible from all points.Ive added a picture of the Ruts DC gig recently held there (sold out) and you can see how great the stage view is!

Classic Dublin music venue. Raised stage and ample floor that accommodates a hefty standing crowd for music gigs, and often has scattered tables and chairs for spoken word shows. Bar in the room at the back with snappy good service, and decent selection of drinks. I MCd a legendary Lingo Festival spoken word show here one night with the inimitable Saul Williams. The energy and buzz in the room was special and so it will always have a special place in my heart ❀️

Great spot for gigs and After Parties for Forbidden Fruit, Longitude (back in the day) etc. Bouncers and staff are friendlier than most typical clubs in Dublin. The balcony is great but this isn’t always open. The Button Factory hosts a wide variety of gigs but also have some classic club nights. Worth a go.

The place could have a lot of potential, but staff are absolutely rude I cant even find the right adjective to describe their level of rudeness. Life is not to be taken too seriously that you have to act like McDonalds staff protecting the ketchup. Live a little and dont spread your negative energy to people that might be easily susceptible to your negative vibes.

Had low expectations. Ended up being a really good night out. Great venue with multiple rooms and a big upstairs balcony. Never had any problems with security or staff like at other venues in that area. Bar staff are friendly. Drinks are very pricey though, €6-€8 a drink.

It was OK! The mezzanine was a good spot as we had a bar right behind it. The negative point was the security check at the entrance. Your security cannot get my wallet and open it without an authorisation. He should ask me to show him my wallet. He didnt only got my wallet but he removed 2 cards from it. All because of a coin. I didnt want to ruin my night, so I let it go... But please, try to avoid this act. Thanks!

Whoa, what a great time! There was a bit of a wait at the door, but worth it for the night. Live music was free to tune into. If you continue toward the restroom you’ll find the stage for performers. I’d suggest stopping by to see if you’d enjoy the act. You can’t beat live music while enjoying a night of drinking.The bar was slow, and the restrooms had at least a 5 minute wait for the ladies

Formerly the Temple Bar Music Centre this is an excellent venue for lively dance acts and soulful singer/songwriters alike. Big enough to allow a good crowd to dance but not so large as to swallow the sound if everyone is listening attentively. Gigs are usually reasonably priced too.

Review β„–84

Went to see a gig here at the end of January 2019.First person was the bouncer, what a big ignorant lad he was, absolutely no personality and communicated with grunts instead of any recognisable language.When we got in there was a nice comfortable crowd and bar staff were lovely. Even though they were busy they still made time to talk and smile (bouncer take note, assuming you can read).Within 20 minutes however the place was jam packed, I mean wedged to the doors with no place to move. The heat began to rise to uncomfortable levels and people were getting annoyed waiting for the show to start.Next up was the support act, who wouldnt speak into the mic but would blast your ears with high pitched squeals as an excuse for singing, nothing like the act we went to see.When she was done we assumed the main act would make an appearance soon after, but no, it was over an hour waiting in the uncomfortable heat for the main act, a ploy by the button factory to make us buy more alcohol no doubt.The main act was excellent and the stage was really good, and apart from the heat and overcrowded venue it was a good gig.Id be reluctant to go to another act here unless I had no option.Plenty of room for improvement, and all possible if it were not for the usual Irish greed, get as many as you can in the door and then take them for all they have.
