If you want to enjoy an evening of live music Allentown offers a variety of local spots for date night or a night out with friends. Grab a drink and some dinner, or just sit back and enjoy the music at some of our favorite live music venues:

 

Strange Brew Tavern

1996 S 5th St

Come earlier in the evening for a relaxing and mellow experience or for dinner, or come in later with a date for live music and a more adventurous experience.

 

Godfrey Daniels Coffee House

7 E 4th St

Godfrey Daniels is your typical old school coffee house featuring folk music. The sound is exceptional for a small venue, and you’ll find people of all ages enjoying the beverages and live music.

 

ArtsQuest Center

An upstairs music venue modeled after the World Café Live in Philly. ArtsQuest offers an outside deck, an area for VIP seating, and even meeting spaces that you can rent if needed.

This building has been beautifully restored, and despite the “symphony” name, you’ll find a large variety of musical acts playing at this venue. Drinks and food are also available.

 

Grain

Stop in for drinks and stay for the music. The venue is long and narrow, but offers a comfortable place to sit and stay awhile.
