I saw Reckless Kelly and Liars trial at the high noon, and though Ive been to the brink lounge multiple times (located below the high noon saloon), this was my first time catching live music there... and it certainly wont be the last!Beer is a bit pricey during showtime, but the bar offers liquor, draft beers, bottled beer, and is well run. Theres also cheaper, quality craft beers, available on the patio before doors open.Venue staff were very respectful and professional.Highly recommended.

A great little venue with style and character.The atmosphere for the few times i have gone is always welcoming and relaxed due to the layout and awesome team that work there. Great to see new music and up and coming bands, to meet them before they play bigger shows. The sound quality is great here, lighting could do with improvement and the floor is one level but thats just nit picking some things. The venue also has a small balcony with seating for those who like to watch things from above. There is no food available here but lots of places close by and a short walk from the capitol square.The only downside to the venue is it is now owned by ticket master a lot like other venues in the city, hopefully they will maintain the charm that this place offers and not make it industrial.Grab a friend, a drink and come watch a show here, play some arcade games or visit the other regular events here such as the black sheep market.

Great live music venue. Very well laid out, acoustics were on point. Staff was friendly & helpful w/ drink selections. Clean bathroom.

Everytime i go to this place its awesome! The most recent, and why im writing the review, was for Beach Bunny and Lettering! Always a great place

This was a pretty cool place to go to see some small bands play and get a drink. If there are more interesting bands showing, Ill definitely come back. Its nice hearing some new sounds.

Bartender was courteous and flexible with my random drink order; and... very patient with me and my husband after a few tall ones! The acoustics inside did not make everyone sound like they swallowed helium; my perfect hearing was not affected in the least. Its a good thing they replaced the Bradley Center let me tell you!

Modern decor. Good selection of drinks. Pinball machines! Cool balcony for viewing live music.

A great venue! This place brings in some outstanding musicians and frequently holds unique fun events! A great selection of beers on tap too! They offer some limited table seating on the main floor and balcony.

Stopped in for a beer here before a concert at the Sylvee. Arrived in between bands so did not get to hear any music. Looks like a nice venue to listen to some tunes.

High Noon Saloon is a solid venue. Tickets are always reasonable, and we’ve been to several enjoyable shows here. Drinks are reasonably priced, and there’s a nice variety of craft beers to choose from. Parking is alright; it can be a bit tricky trying to find somewhere in the neighborhood and Madison has the most specific parking signs to navigate, but it’s free so there’s that.The sound system seems to be good, and the venue is definitely more on the intimate side, size-wise. The balcony section up top is a nice option, but it’s fairly easy to see the stage, even from the back. A nice bonus – they sell ear plugs at the bar for $1!

One of my favorite venues! Great stage, amazing sound, phenomenal people, the best beer selections. Everybody needs to enjoy the High Noon Saloon!

Decent venue with good drink choices, but parking is unclear. I recommend parking on the street because parking in the lots nearby is minimal to none, and isnt clear whether the reserved parking is meant for the venue. Similarly the lot at the printing store clearly will tow.

My wife and I held our wedding reception here, and we have nothing but glowing praise for this venue and staff. From the get-go, they were engaged, had great advice, and were communicative. Their in-house bar packages are GREAT, I strongly recommend using one! The lighting, the decor, the levels, and the sound were all superb - we had a live band for the reception and doing it here was a huge part of why our dance floor was never empty. The staff helped us out with places to stash things, and they even held on to a few items we forgot that night so we could grab them the next day. We really enjoyed working with these folks!

Very nice venue. Awsome line up of music. Reasonable ticket and drink prices.

High Noon Saloon is great for smaller concerts. The people there are great and even when its sold out its still a pretty intimate concert.

One of my all time favorite show venues in Madison. Frank Productions/Live Baton Nation have done very very little to change it and thats a very good thing. It still feels like home.

Who all remembers the Buy & Sell Shop? It was an amazing 3 store warehouse thrift store that had literally everything you could think of. I loved that place. I was very sad when it closed, and became not one but 3 venues-- the High Noon, the Brass Ring, and the Brink.The High Noon is the biggest of the venues, and it has a slight modern cowboy theme. However it caters to all styles of music-- hip hop, funk, blues, rock, etc. Its a mid size venue. Not a hole in the wall, not a big theatre. I imagine it seats about 500, and when I say seats, I mean stands, theres maybe about two dozen chairs, total, mostly in the balcony.Full bar, no food options, but the Brass Ring serves food next door. Sound system and lights are good. Overall a good venue to see a band play. As a musician who has played there, they have little or no options for load in or green room.Parking is limited to a few spaces in the lot and the street.

Great sound. Live bands. They change genre constantly. Wide variety of music. Friendly staff.

Awesome small venue. Good sound from wherever you are in venue. Definitely could use canned soda for folks. Not a big fan of city soda water. Not uncommon in the cities

The High Noon Saloon was a great venue when Cathy owned it. Now that it has joined the FPC/Live Nation it has lost that local, cool vibe. Nonetheless, it is still a decent venue to catch a show. Its fairly easy to get a drink, move throughout the venue - take note of the pinball collection upstairs - and get in and out of the bathrooms. The sound is good and the vibe is warm. You can catch all types of acts including metal and world class DJs. Oh, and you can drink on the patio too. Its a much better place than the Majestic to see music in the Mad city.

Wonderful concert venue with a great atmosphere. The drinks are overpriced but the patio that connects to other bars is great. To find the place you have to walk around to the parking lot / back entrance!

We are part of a larger group that love Gomeroke. Singing with a live band! This used to be twice a month on Fridays. It is now once a month on a Saturday. Check their facebook page. Great beers and sound system.

Best vibes for grooving to some tunes..any night of the week. Perfect size venue. 5 stars as a music venue and audio quality and great green room. 4 stars though as the drinks are inconsistent ..either way too strong where almost undrinkable or conversely too weak. Bartenders can be a bit unfriendly

One of the best venues in madisonHelping hip hop shows get more traction in madison

So much fun! Love this venue

Great bar selection. Music was amazing and very friendly staff. Will continue to be a patron well into the future.

Was here for a wedding reception, and it was great! The lighting is perfect, and I can really appreciate how far the old west aesthetics go. Drinks were great too! Parking was a bit tough, but thats kinda just the entire area.

Very popular place, fills up fast for popular events, youll need to show up early to get a seat. If you want to be able to talk to your seatmate, I recommend the balcony. Drink prices are reasonable. Their parking is shared with two other venues so youll probably have to park on the street and walk a bit, especially Friday & Saturday. Ive seen a lot of great bands here over the years, the High Noon is an iconic Madison institution.

Probably my favorite live music venue! Ive seen the Melvins multiple times here, as well as 3Teeth most recently, pictured. Theres also a huge patio! If youre in Madison, definitely check this place out, even if its just for open mic or some random show! You wont regret it!

Awesome concert venue with a great space to stand or sit and watch the band. Good drink selection, too. Well be definitely be back for another show.

Good venue for local bands. Great bartenders and nice selection of beer!

I have seen several shows here and loved each one. Great venue: good sound, perfect setup to get up close and personal.

Awesome venue! Hope it reopens strong

Ive been here for multiple shows and its a great little venue!

Great shows. Great staff. Lots of fun to be had here.

Small venue (600?) but built for live music. Outdoor patio with small local bands before 7pm. Check the accurate website for current line up and future shows. Reasonable beer prices. Food around the corner at the Brass Ring (in the same building). Pinball games and clean bathrooms. Nuf said...

Great venue with varied artists... long rectangular layout so you can get up close or hang out in the balcony at the back away from the crowds. They also have a huge smoking patio outside to cool off or smoke. :(

Beautiful place with a view of the capital in the heart of Madison, conveniently located off East Wash. Great place for a wedding reception!

My band InDyingHours just played there, and it was packed. Great sound/environment. Great on both sides of the stage. Thank you High Noon for hosting us.

A GOOD time with some GOOD friends, while listening to groovy music..... What could be a better night then going to the High Noon Saloon!

I love this venue, really fun place with a great atmosphere. Ive seen a handful of shows here and its always super great. Beer prices are decent as well.

It has always been a good venue. Sound is good. Service is good. They have a GREAT outdoor area. A second floor inside.

One of my favorite venues in town for a live show. Plenty of space to dance or people watch.

Awesome club in every way. Great acoustics. Great talent on that stage.

Nice place to see a concert, for the best souns stay down on the floor,not the balcony. Drinks are kinda pricey.

Nice venue in Madison. Glass Nickel Pizza by the slice to eat and a great selection of beers. Nicely coupled with the Brass Ring in the same building for dinner and pool before shows.

Great drinks, perfect place for live shows. Love this place. We like getting there early and getting one of the dozen or so balcony tables. They let you bring in food from the Brass Ring next door. You can either get down in the action below, or chill and listen to the music up above. Its a great venue.

Great place to see a band live! I even brought all my recording gear, and when doorman asked what if I had anything I should not have and opened my case to show everything I did bring, he simply told me to have a good time. I had a fantastic time! Very friendly and cool staff, very cool venue, with 2 bars! Balcony seating above. Nice patio area with rules clearly posted, which I put on my Instagram and Fakebook accounts. Come early for free parking, or walk a little farther to find some. Great venue! Great times!

I loved seeing Crystal Method here! Awesome show with the best kind of people!

We went to hear some live music and had a great experience. Friendly bartenders and reasonable prices. It is a big enough venue that you can always find a place to stand or sit. For big performances, there is also seating upstairs and some tables. A great place to go for live music.

Cool place to see live music. Full bar and a friendly staff.

I’ve been here a few times - I wanted to like it because it’s such a great venue but each time I am left horrified by the worst mixed drinks I’ve ever encountered. They desperately need real bartenders.

Bartender good. Time between bands are way to long.

Great little venue, huge beer list. Cant wait for bob marleys birthday bash!

I love the High Noon! Regular shows with a variety of great brands. Free shows on the patio are always worth a visit on Thursday nights during the summer!

Great venue for live music. Large main floor space serves as both the bar and stage viewing area. There is also an upstairs balcony with seating that overlooks the main floor.Reasonably priced ($6 for a on tap pint) drinks and friendly and attentive staff.Even the bathrooms (at least the mens) were tidy and allowed you to maneuver around other guests.

Great venue. Buy your tickets early. Sellout often.

Staff is great, and they have some good shows. Acoustics could be better. Drinks are tad expensive. Parking is mostly street parking in the neighborhood..Only a problem if you dont like a bit of a walk.

Great reggae band tonight. Natty Nation!

Cool place with a hipster atmosphere. Lots of choices of beer, and music is pretty good. Cover charge is a bit pricey for shows that take a while to start, but otherwise a good time.

Our favorite venue in Madison! Right around the corner from the only hotel we stay with, (Hotel Ruby Marie, check it out). Some of our favorite acts of all time have been here, great place!

Way too overpriced for what is available. Wont show up again.

This and the Barrymore are Madisons best medium sized music venues.

I absolutely enjoyed coming here for a concert! The drinks were reasonably priced. The staff on hand that I encountered were kind and helpful. The acoustics were excellent and the ladies room was pretty clean. I loved the patio, I loved the vibe! All in all, an excellent venue!

We always have best time here, really enjoy

Went for the Last Crack album release party. Great venue with lots of space for people, the stage is a bit small. Large outdoor seating space for smoking/hanging out.

My home away from home. Music every night, no TVs, great staff, awesome fans and bands!

Nice place.Good selection of drinks.Went for some live music. No cover charge, a lot of people there but still plenty of room. It was a great time with some friends.

Great place to see bands!

Theres a huge pillar in the middle of the floor. Hurts stage visibility for anyone standing behind it. Really helps the feeling of this being an authenticly rockin venue. Drinks are priced right. Parking is rough, especially as the area grows. Seen a lot of good shows here. And a few not-shows. Lots of stuff going on here.

Very nice to get so close to the stage

I thought this venue was great! Everything you could want for a show, with amazing sound and great lightening. All of the staff are super fun also!

Cool place. Maybe too cool forvme but I may be getting old. Anyway, a lot of fun.

I’ve been here on a few occasions for some shows. The staff is great and the prices for drinks are not outrageous at all. Very spacious place, makes for a great venue. The outdoor area is huge. I like it when a band I listen to plays in Madison, I love it when they play at high noon !!

Pretty mediocre bar but I can absolutely appreciate the live music and fun beers.

I’ve been coming to the High Noon for close to 15 years. Absolutely loved it when they had Friday Happyoke every other week! Now, that only happens a few times a year, but have been coming to more music events here. I meant to give four stars as a few changes due to ownership change. Friday Happy Hour, from 4:00 to 6:00, used to be BOGO. That is now just 1.00 off a drink. Love the early shows, wish there were more that started earlier.

Excellent venue! Good prices on drinks too!

Nice friendly place. Good acoustics. Had an issue with some patrons who insisted on standing in the front row talking at the tops of their lungs over several songs.

By all means a nice bar with pretty regular selection of drinks available and everything that you would expect. The real draw for the High Noon Saloon though is that they have lots of really good live music. All different kinds of music regularly playing throughout the year with a whole bunch of good shows to go see. Definitely worth checking out.

Great place to enjoy a concert, wish they had more country artists

Overall, good experience...nice clean, but smallish(intimate) music venue.

Good music venue serving the more underground style music scenes - reminiscent of the old Okayz. A variety of good local and touring bands and great sound with a clean atmosphere and nice patio. Only 4 stars because of their annoying political benefits.

Decided to hit this place up after Ghost at The Sylvee and the door guy turned us away as we entered, was far from full. Had one awesome time here ages ago but thats it. Must have gone way downhill since then anyway.

Amazing venue for live music. Sound is amazing. Friendly staff and great beer selection.

It was a cool venue to catch a show at.

Great sound system, cozy atmosphere!

Loved the Driveway Thriftdweller.

Always have a great time here. Make sure to try and beat my PAC-MAN score upstairs!

One of my favorite concert venues in town. Id probably see any show there, regardless of whether Id heard of the band.The space is decent, with tables on the main floor, a dance space in front of the stage, a couple pool tables behind, and a balcony with seating above.Glass Nickel Pizza sold by the slice is the only food option. Theyve got a good, if slightly small, tap beer selection and plenty of bottles and spirits.And, if you a change of scenery, there are two other great venues in the same building.

Great venue in Mad-Town, WI. Enjoyed Josh Zastro and his one man show with guitar, percussion and touching original songs.Nailed it Josh!

Great small venue for spectacular talent. Fully stocked bar & friendly, laid back vibe

Great place, went to a show here and the atmosphere was amazing. Friendly staff!

Nice space. Cheap beers. Nice sound and sightlines. Liked the vibe of the place, would visit often if I lived in Madison.

I was there for a charity even, it was nice

Spent my sons 21st birthday here. We live 5 hours away. Well worth the drive.

A perfect show/venue for new years Eve with kids. Balloon drop at 6 pm with Ireland was awesome.

The service was horrible. My friend was waiting at the bar, for a while, when the bartender asked the person next to him what he wanted. This patron pointed to my friend and said he was here way before me and the bartender said he can wait. WTH? Never going back.

This place holds SO much nostalgia, Ive performed here multiple times and its always such a fun and welcoming environment. The food is great and the staff are friendly and the shows are fun.

Great spot to catch live concerts. Double bar. Cowboy setting. Overall laid back joint for drinks and a night of music.

Great sound ! Josh Morningstar rocked it!!
