Great venue for a show. Comedy club downstairs, along with cafe and bar. Upstairs is event center for music with 2 bars, large clean bathrooms and not a bad seat in the house

Year-round music, movies, and art in a unique indoor and outdoor setting. Dont skip the adjacent Hoover Mason Trestle. Its a must visit to get a high and close view of the blast furnaces and a bit of history of the once mighty Bethlehem Steel Company.

Stopped here to see the Gingerbread competition while in the area and was impressed with the way this building is used for movies, the arts and several other venues. Great way to bring life back to the area.

Awesome experience, a funeral celebration of life like I have never attended. Live music. Excellent food. Open bar. Just an unbelievable send-off and a way of celebrating. I was impressed with the food, the wait staff, the facility itself, and the view of the old blast furnaces with a wall of windows.

I visited this site to pick up my Steve Miller tickets; the clerk was friendly and helpful. This building houses a gift shop, food stand, bar, bathrooms and a seating area with charging stations, tables, chairs. etc. Thjs area is also the site of many community affairs; movies, food and musical occasions.

Seriously? Movie premiere and no food anywhere last night? Disappointed. Stale overpriced popcorn isnt dinner. Edited to upgrade because maybe it was just an off rainy night. Theyre going to make big improvements I hear. It was a nice cozy theater. Well try it again.

Nice group of people and staff for the restaurant and different venues available there. I received the Valor Award for First Responders today which really made me happy and humble. The president of Artsquest handed it to me and made me feel very proud to be an American.Even though this was a special day for me, the venue is very nice and convenient. They offer movies, live concerts and other items including souvenirs and food and drinks. The food is good and reasonably priced. I recommend this venue and visit it every summer as a volunteer.

Bought tickets for concert here. Had to wait 30 minutes until people speed coming in for movies so that I was allowed to buy concert tickets. I was at the front of the line in 2 minutes but they didnt want anyone to miss the movies dio they made me wait to buy concert tickets.Very poor service m

A fine example of how to revive once-thriving industrial complexes that were left abandoned for many years and threatened with demolition. This place is buzzing with life again and I hope they continue to find ways to attract visitors.

Review №48

Really like this place and have supported the concert/music scene there since Day 1. Ambiance in Arts Quest Cafe is great, acoustics are very good. My main gripe is the floor plan. Some concerts, for instance, the Live From the Fillmore (Allman Bros. tribute) on Sat. May 4, are best suited for a standing room area in front of the stage to provide the best musical experience possible. Instead, the Cafe is more often interested in seating patrons at tables to extract dining/drinking minimums to increase revenue. There does not seem to be rhyme nor reason to the set-up as it changes from show/show. The May 4 show was taped for future production. Lets see how that looks with everyone sitting on their hands!

ArtsQuest should hold their vendors during MusikFest accountable. My mother has been calling and calling Corked Wine Bar without any resolution to the ongoing MusikFest overcharge issue. Corked charged her credit card twice for the same purchase at their tent during the concert event. Corked said it wasnt them???? The tent clearly said CORKED.... bad business and over a few dollars. They are blowing it off saying its just $5 but if they do this to everyone, it adds up and ITS DISHONEST! $5 is $5, you over charged her and its not right. They even said in the other reviews, its just $5! SMH

Artsquest runs Musikfest. Dont let Corked Wine Bar be involved in the future. They clearly overcharged peoples credit cards during Musikfest and have yet to correct it. Shame

Best venue in town! Smaller more intimate. I also think it has better sound than the Sands. Nice place to go for a show, drinks and dinner. Dinner menu kinda small (just one side of a paper) but I guess theres enough to pick from. I had a few favorites but they got removed when they changed the menu. So current I usually order the musikfest burger with FF. The portion is pretty filling!

Beautiful arts center for movies, music, comedians, and many other types of entertainment. Upstairs room can be extremely loud for concerts, and sound reverberates bad. Hearing protection is recommended if you dont want a headache. Otherwise great place to visit.

Artsquest is a nice place to catch a movie - often indie movies, but also some mainstream movies, - see a band that can be local or a major act, especially around musikfest, or during the summer outdoor concert series, and hosts lots of one day festivals, etc.with a bar and food and 3 floors of space. We had our wedding reception in the blast furnace room and watched many comedy and music acts in the musikfest cafe. Great arts venue!

You wont find a more personal, comfortable theater than this one. Yeah, you have to park out of the way a bit, but theres valet parking available most nights, and the walk is surrounded by an awesome view of the old historic Bethlehem steel mill. The movie selections are solid, with indie films taking front row often, and a variety of smaller film festivals happen there on occasion too. Big roomy seats, and a smaller intimate setting make this place perfect for date nights.

Review №84

There are a variety of venues contained within ArtsQuest, movie theaters, eateries and intimate concert stages. Plenty to choose from. The MusikFest Cafe is a great concert venue, small, not a bad seat in the house. Food prices are a bit high, but the food is high quality and delicious.

Review №85

Great venue and gorgeous scenery. New food and drink vendor needs to change for the better. Just went to vet fest and they took 30 min plus for food orders. Had a limited menu, ran out of propane so the food had to be cooked indoors and brought out to be served. Ran out of beer throughout the day several times. Not a good first year with the new vendor. Hoping they change to step up to the great standards that the rest of artsquest holds.
