WHY HAVE WE WAITED SO LONG to check the Stable out!
As a 15 year plus downtown resident, this is our backyard. With 30 plus years in the hospitality field (now retired) I feel I can bring you real insight into our locations. The good, the bad and the ugly. If we run across a serious issue, I will always go directly to management and not post it. I truly believe you always must give management an opportunity to correct a serious issue. If not corrected and or just ignored, then I feel it is correct to inform the public - professionally. No establishment is perfect.
I will bring to you smaller hiccups we may have come across.
We had dinner at the Boiler House at the Pearl before going to the event. The event did have food items to purchase. The only hick up was the RSVP seating. When you went to the tables, some had RSVP signs and some didn't. This caused some confusion. Yep, then you had folks taking the RSVP seating table and chairs. Then the RSVP peeps came into the venue to find no table remaining, well until they had to kick many of the non-RSVP peeps off the tables. Suggestion, put the RSVP signs on the tables and also the names. For the empty RSVP tables that you can purchase once you enter, ensure they also have RSVP signs on the table. With a note, must purchase via the host.
Back to the Stable, WOW WOW WOW, what a great venue. I can see local talents playing here, but I can also see why big-name peeps would want to play in this great small personal space. The round building is so unique. The bars are no joke! Bathrooms well done.... everything is 5 stars at the Stable! We saw the Journey tribute band. Could hear the band (s) perfectly. Your front of the house entry point peeps, fantastic and so very helpful. The dudes went over first as our wife's settled the bill at the Broiler. The entry folks very helpful and understanding that the wife's were inbound. Let us get our wrist bands and I texted the wives to tell them we had already scanned their tickets and to tell the entry peep. Oh yes, we will be back 100% for sure to watch other acts.
