Record store
👍👍 Top-notch retail record store with eclectic items which also has bands play every Wednesday night. They have an excellent liquor/beer/wine selection to help you get your groove on. The manager generates a very positive energy which is reflected in her staff. Very enjoyable overall.

Photo City Music Hall
Live music venue
👍👍 Great venue. It can be a little expensive, but you get what you pay for. You can save by getting tickets online... and not buying rounds of shots, lol. I'd rather dish out a little more and have a great club to go to, and as far as I can tell, it's all about the shows. I didn't notice a kitchen. The...

The Roxy Rochester
Live music venue
👍 We love the Roxy. We have been to a few shows there. All of different styles. The shows are always great, however the setup for “VIP” is not the best.
If you’re going I highly suggest the floor seats unless you pay the $700+ for the VIP booths. The tables in the mezzanine are fine if there isn’t a...

Montage Music Hall
Event venue
👍 Good local place for music! Had a great time listening to 5 different bands. People of different ages were there having a great time. Parking was not great but after circling the block a few times I was able to find a spot. The band "Polybius" was absolutely amazing! I will definitely go back to see...

North Star Bar
Bar
👍 I like this bar, the drinks are very cheap for Rochester, plus they open early. So, if you are looking to start early, this is the place to be! There isn't any food here, so eat before you come. There are live performances every weekend AND, if you come before the band starts you can drink 50 cent b...
