Urban lounge is always a blast. Great venue. Super friendly door guys and always down to support the local and traveling artists that depend on great venues like this one. During the pandemic they have come up with safe and creative ways to still showcase music in their parking lot.

Ive only been a couple times. Their typical acts arent usually my style. That being said, their typical acts are pretty atypical... diverse and gritty. Up close, personal, and loud. Keep it up, Urban Lounge!

Nice little venue!! The booths and tables are nice and the drinks were normal price. Not sure if it was the sound engineer, the venues, or the headliners issue, but the balance could use some work. Still 5 stars though!

No frills spot for the best in music in an intimate setting. Significantly improved over the years. If you want an up close experience without the fight of a big crowd or deafening sound levels, this is one of the best places to catch a show.

Its been many years since I visited this place and I was happy to see that it had been cleaned up, remodeled some, new sound system and a sound engineer! Much nicer place to listen to a local band than last time. Id go again.

Really great venue, very enjoyable. I saw Electric Guest and everyone that was there was awesome. Easy to get in and out. Very open atmosphere and the aesthetic is nice. The staff was nice too.

Great venue. They always have excellent nationally touring bands, usually in the alt rock category. Great sound and they have cleaned up the space a lot in the last year.

Picture a club that you used to sneak into when you were a teenager to see your favorite local and small touring bands play. This is that club. I love the atmosphere.

I went here to see a concert for a band Id never even heard of before and had a great time. It was very intimate and fun. We reserved a booth and I think that helped a lot. Even if I hadnt reserved a booth, I probably could have still got a seat at one of the many small tables they have throughout the venue. Id definitely see another show here.

I went here yesterday with a couple of friends for the emo night tour and we had so much fun. The band was awesome and the lighting was spot on. Friendly staff as well. Thanks for the awesome show! I look forward to coming back to see what other good shows you have!

Nice little place. Acoustics are great. Parking is hard to get but if you show up early around 2 hours early you can find parking on street. Across street is parking structure to. But not sure if public.

Love this venue! Its relatively small, so it seems to get primarily local/regional bands playing, but you do get the occasional band that has a national/international fanbase (though they tend to be a bit obscure and have cult followings).

One of the best venues to see up and coming bands. Attracts a lot of fun energetic people. Highly recommend.

Great environment, I was surprised by how clean the audio was (quality). Super fun and everyone was very welcoming. Going alone for my first time it was an exhilarating experience. I dont drink so it was just fun. Soda, water, amazing beats, and chill people to hang out with.

Havent been to the Urban Lounge for several years and I have to say it was a great improvement and I was pleasantly surprised. I especially liked the free water dispenser and cups that is available for everyone. Thank you Urban! The patio is nice so those who smoke dont have to go out on the street to do so. The booths, the Tables and lighting all is very nice. The staff is very friendly and helpful, great show too and if you ever get the chance to see the Supersuckers live, well all I can say is they have the coolest, most badass fans! Greatest band in the world! Check em out.

A decent place to make you feel like your back at your high school garage kegger. I wouldnt consider it a lounge outside of the super uncomfortable benches in the back.Bartenders and staff were super chill and nice, maybe I just went on an off day, will give it another shot.

Urban is a legendary spot for both local bands, national artists and even your above average DJ produced dance party. Been attending show here for 20 years and I hope to attend for 20 more! The picture is of the mighty Iceburn!

Awesome venue for intimate shows, super small setting and never crowded. The staff could be a bit better at the door and the ventilation is terrible. However the sound is usually great and it always has the best and most casual vibe. Security was none existent at the door.

Been going here for a few years. I really love how they have remodeled everything, it makes it feel way better when attending shows or whatever

Last night I went to a concert for the first time there! I’m also pregnant, I was so worried about being there pregnant but holly cow I’m so impressed! The staff was amazing I had to sit for a few songs they got me a stool and water then every so often they would come check on me! My cousin and hubby had a great time drinking and singing over all I was VERY impressed by the staff! Thank you for making me feel comfortable and for letting me enjoy a great concert!

Bar gets a 2 star. Cheap plastic cups, insane prices, but bartenders always great. A vodka coke is $7.00. thats insaneAs a music venue, 4 stars. Acoustics pretty good, sound quality is awesome. Audio engineers/techs and mixer are always spot on.Crowd is a 50/50 mix of:old biker dudes in leather vests with handlebar mustaches and prison tattoosand college students.Pretty alright place, but man they price their drinks so wrong

Ive seen dozens of shows at Urban over the years. The sound is usually pretty good, and the staff is always nice. It can get pretty packed when there are more popular artists playing. I think theyve increased drink prices recently but I always expect to pay a bit more at a venue than a bar.

Had the pleasure of seeing one of my favorite DJs here. Kinda a small place with little seating. I didnt mind, I was there to dance anyway.

Shows often start really late. Bring earplugs due to speaker location. The line for the bar and path to bathrooms are in the same place due to poorly placed railings.That said, they have shows there you wont see anywhere else.Take the bad with the good I suppose.

Really cool vibe and have great artist. The concert I went to there was awesome.

If you want some good music in a perfectly friendly environment...this is for you!!! Epic night with Stonefield!! These girls will ROCK you to the core!!

Intimate experience with plenty of room. They need more places to sit down and their sound guys need to realize they wont make any money if all the patrons go deaf. The bartenders were great. Well be back but with earplugs next time.

Chill vibe with music most nights. Would recommend

Intimate setting, nice lighting, and the speaker setup can get loud!!! Plus when you know the people performing, and want to heckle them, they cant play like they dont hear you!

Great place for live music. The remodel of the bar is awesome and allows for more space

First time going to Urban Lounge. Loved the local bands. Really crowded, not many mixed drinks, smelt like hamsters.

OMG this was my first time there and it was way cool. DUBWISE was FREAKING AWESOME.

It was a fun little local venue, I just went for the first and enjoyed it

I told my wife one of my favorite Post-Rock bands was going to be coming to Salt Lake to play at the Urban Lounge on Aug 9th, and I really wanted to go. Back in May, she surprised me with two tickets so that we could go to the concert. Though we were pleased with the atmosphere and the vibe of the venue, and our overall experience was great, for our first time here, it did not start that way.Our IDs were checked, then we moved up to the counter to give the guy our tickets. We gave him our tickets, and then he asked for a last name so that he could find us on a list the venue had created with the names of all the people who had purchased tickets. My wife gave him my last name (obviously), but he said it wasnt on the list. She then gave him her maiden last name, but he still could not find her on the list. He apologized and went to turn us away, wasnt going to let us into the show, even though we had our tickets. Seconds later, I spotted her name, which they had cut short, and put her middle name as her last name. Had it not been for the fact that I spotted her name, we wouldnt have been let in.I understand if he was just following the venues policy, but he did not even ask to see my wifes confirmation email, which we would have been more than happy to show him. She bought these tickets months ago, as a Mothers Day gift. The tickets also had barcodes on them, but were not being scanned.Even though the venue has a cool atmosphere, their entry and ticket system obviously needs to be updated, because the one they have now is not efficient.What if someone else had pointed at her name and said that was them? Then they would have been let in, and we would have been screwed, even if our last names had actually been on the list.There is also no re-entry, once the music starts to play.

I love the laid back atmosphere. The ticket prices for a show are the cheapest I have ever seen almost anywhere in the US. Ranging from Free to 15 or 20. May have a few slightly more but not often. I hesitate to call it a dive bar but yet it has that scene and the look, but not the type of dive punk bar where you are afraid to use the bathroom because of filth or doors ripped off, etc. It reminds me of a punk or indie type of music venue you would find on the east coast (where i am from originally). This to me equals comfortable intimate atmosphere. The bands 9 times out of 10 come down and converse with the locals and just hang out which is wonderful. Mostly local or obscure and sometimes big named bands perform here. Since I have been to Salt Lake City which was 7 months ago I have seen international bands and great bands from the states. Some of these are Spear Of Destiny(EU), King Dude(WA), K. Clover(CA), Maggot Heart(EU). I have upcoming shows who I am excited to see in this intimate venue. Pink Turns Blue(EU), Drab Majesty(CA), Boy Harsher(MA), Children of Night(OH), Shanghai Beach(NYC), Glume from right here in Utah. This list could go on and on. I suggest checking their calendar often as many bands end up playing here on their way through, so some shows do not have too much notice on the calendar. Good drink prices and even a water cooler where you can just get a paper cup from the bar and grab your own water whenever, making it very convenient. A nice outside patio area for those wanting to have some nicotine, or a place to hang out, talk and meet new people.

Small but intimate venue and eat to get drinks.

This is hands down, the best place in Salt Lake to see that up-and-coming band before they make it big.

This unique venue brings so many great bands to Utah. Great place to listen to good music and get a drink. The time the band begins to play is always a bit unknown but they have gotten a lot better with that through the years.

Awesome and intimate venue for shows.

For a Tuesday night, it was awesome. Local talent that was extraordinary. Staff is always great. They always do it right

Great vibes great atmosphere and some crazy good venues highly recommend The Urban Lounge gives you a front row seat to some of the hottest artists.

The Urban Lounge is a great concert venue. Its small enough that you can get a good view of the stage from where ever you are yet large enough you dont feel packed in. The acoustics are great as well. You can hear the lyrics and music (which cant be said for all venues). They have a wide variety of drinks so finding something shouldnt be difficult for you. Concert tickets are reasonably priced as well. Never had a bad experience here and I am always watching to see who they bring in. The organizers do a great job of bringing in good acts. Ill be back soon.

Friendly staff. Clean inside and out. Great 21 and over club to have a concert. You get to be up close and personal with the artist. Definitely will go there again.

My friend Sam sure likes this place.

I love this venue! Its fairly small but its got great acoustics. The only thing I dont like is the drinks are pretty steeply priced so I usually end up staying sober for shows here instead & party afterwards elsewhere.

Always a great venue for music and friends

We have seen a bunch of bands preform at the Urban Lounge. The spot is nice and has decent sound, you can get a good view from anywhere in the house. I have bought the booth seating in the past for High on Fire and The Sword, it was worth it for my old bones. I actually like it here better than other venues around town. The bar has an o.k. selection.

Super intimate venue, laid back staff that lets the right things fly. Had a blast

Great place to see your favorite band, or find a new one! Large stage, nice lighting and fog make for great pictures as well. I will definitely be back!

Cool little venue. Parking is a little tricky but its in a good part of town. Great place to get nice and close to the band and really get into the show. Saw the Melvins there.

All the focus is on great music. Its wonderful to listen to a concert here because its such a small space that you get to be close to the stage no matter where you are. The environment is very spare. It reminds me of a black box theater. The bar doesnt serve food, and the drinks they can make are pretty limited. If you need to sit, call ahead to reserve a booth. There is free water, and really good music. The concert we saw was tons of fun. If you love live music with wonderful energy and you enjoy simple, sort of obvious drinks, this is a really fun place to spend the evening.

Theyve got seating, a bar, and a dancefloor. The band and dj sounded great. It felt crowded, but there was also room to get away.

Great venue... It does get a bit too warm during sold out shows and the venue removes all seating except VIP booths during sold out shows.Come prepared and aware! Comfy shoes and not too many layers of clothing. (it can get really hot)Ive always had a great time at The Urban Lounge...

For a small scale music venue this is a pretty good establishment. A lot of good shows.

Best Bar Venue in salt lake!

Best medium sized dive bar to catch the best live music coming through town. Nice big patio, good vibe, great owners

This place is amazing for events! Great atmosphere and outdoor space.

Nice vibe on the inside. Not the best acoustics though since it is square-shaped with not a vaulted ceiling. So basically that means bring ear-plugs unless you want some ringing in your ears afterwards (and long-term hearing damage). Bar inside, drinks are about $6-10 dollars. Not the cheapest, but not the most expensive. Saw Julia Jacklin here and she was really good. Get there right when it opens if you want to sit down during the concert, otherwise youll be standing the whole time.

Urban lounge is a favorite concert venue of SLC. Never a bad show.

What a great cafe! My new favorite study spot in SLC. Great vibe, coffee, wifi and food. They have some super unique sticker dispenser that is a lot of fun too.But really, the food here at is great, especially for a cafe. Ive liked everything that I have tried so far.Easy parking too!I would recommend this place for sure.

Great use of space. Quality sound system.

One of my favorite venues in Salt Lake. Perfect size for an intimate experience with awesome bookings

They need to do something about cigarette smoke Getting into the venue. But other than that, this club is one of the best in the city for live music in SLC.

Fun dark tiny 21+ concert venue with drinks and a few seats. If you want seats make sure to arrive early. Drinks are pretty well priced and they sometimes hand out tickets to future events when you arrive. When it gets crowded it gets really hot, so bring athletic wear.

I enjoyed the show at the urban lounge. It is a small and intimate venue. The bar was more of a venue bar, slightly limited selection with plastic cups instead of glass. Overall, the venue is good though, and the bands they schedule are good

Small and fun venue with friendly staff. Easy to get to the bar and order drinks. A couple small vendors selling shirts, hats and knick-knacks.

I will always enjoy seeing a show here. Awesome venue and A+ bar.

Awesome relaxed feel. Very fun environment.

Band covers are cheap, and they get a wide variety of acts. Alcohol selection is decent, if not a little over priced for what you get. Sound system is pretty decent and what youd expect for this type of venue.

This Venue is smaller, more intimate. But it makes for an epic show. Plenty of room on the floor to bounce around. Raised stage, bar in the back, this place was set up for ragers!

The Urban Lounge is kind of a dive.. i wouldnt just venture in there except for some of the bands that play there. Its ok sounding but it was like 100 degrees in the place.. we went and saw Sparta. One of my favorite bands and it was a great show. It was a fun place to go. There is mostly just street parking and it didnt seem like they had much to offer for food or refreshment. So my Low rating is because it just wasnt all that great. Except the show.

The Urban lounge had a very intimate feel to it and had a great lineup the night I went. My only complaint is that the sound was setup very poorly. The vocals and instruments were set to the exact same volume which made understanding the lyrics very difficult.

This place is awsome! Keep up the good work!

They bring in some rad musical talent. Just wish it was a bigger venue.

I went to the Gin Wigmore show here and had a great time! The staff was helpful and friendly. There are outdoor accommodations for smoking. The bar is small and doesnt have a lot of choices, but made great drinks with what they have. It is mostly standing room only, you have to reserve a table, and they are limited. The bathroom was clean and stocked. Great little dive bar venue for less well known artists. Will definitely go back!

The food is absolutely delicious. It takes about 45 minutes to get your food done, but it worth every minute. Generous portions, nice staff and decent prices. I recommend to call and reserve your table.

This is a great, intimate venue for concerts. They have a nice back patio area, the bartenders are friendly and do a great job. Its also in a good area in downtown Salt Lake. As its Central to everything else in the downtown area. It would be nice if there were more sitting areas or standing tables to place drinks.

Ill always love Urban Lounge. The 21+ crowds never get rowdy in this venue, and it has a nice, intimate feel. The artists they book are always spot on. Everyone is always super kind. Sound quality is great. Really, no complaints. Another Sartain Success.

Always a good time here! Love the consistent entertainment, social crowds, and staff are friendly. Smaller venue, rock and roll vibe, table seating, and back patio area. Highly recommend this place. Find a show and go.

Fun place for an intimate show. Friendly staff made getting in the door quick and painless. Drinks were cheap and cold, but beer did end up running out by the middle of the main act. Though I understand the no frills aestetics from the outside, theres got to be a better way to attract people in. Overall a good experience... Will be back for another show soon!

Fun. Drinks. Cool vibe.

Awesome patio, more of a dive bar with local music!21+ but they always have concerts! There is always something to do here.

Good place to see an interesting concert of That1Guy.

The sounds set up was great! Loved seeing the bands play live tonight!

Great place. Less of a lounge and more of a venue. Urban Venue doesnt sound as cool, so I understand.

We saw a B line singer who we really loved. This venue is priced so well and lets you see the entertainment up close and personal.

Such a great small venue! We saw Joshua James here and had a great time. You can easily see the stage from anywhere in the room. The bar tender are nice and super fast. The crowd was a little loud during the show but that has nothing to do with the club. I will definately be attending more shows here.

Love this location. Tight little club with great drinks. Ive seen some great shows here.

Poor audio quality combined with rude bar staff make this one of my least favorite SLC venues. The only perk is that the venue is so small you are always close to the stage.Side note, they stamp your hand but dont allow re-entry. I mean, if you dont allow re-entry, fine, but why the hand stamp then?

Had a great time, great venue. Has really good Acoustics for concert!

It have a great vibe, but the bathroom need to be clean.

Loved it good service and music

Aside from the power dying and slowly roasting to death it was a great show

I got to go watch a few bands here with my boy. It was a great night.

Great environment. Epic bass. The patio area is a bit too separated.

I like this venue. Its big enough to fit a crowd, yet small enough to still feel intimate. I dont think they allow re-entry, so that can be annoying. I will continue to see shows here, as often as they keep hosting artists that I enjoy seeing.

Always a great place to see a show. A nice, intimate venue. I love that the performers usually come out and sign stuff after their set.

Stage and bar layout are great. Sound is really good as well.

Great place for live music, local and tourng bands are always coming through this smaller 21 and older venue. The bands are generally leaning to the punk variety, but I have seen plenty of metal and semi-pop bands here throughout the years! Cheers!

Love this venue, its small but intimate. Love the benches and booths and they have ice cold beer and a lot of open floor space even for tables. The sound is great too especially for the size!
