I love this place. My husband, gf and I have made this our Tuesday night hangout. People here are friendly and have great personalities. The live music is a must see and they are always welcoming new talent. If youre a Karen or get your feelings hurt real easy than this place is definitely NOT a place for you.

This place is super scary! Dont even think about going without some brass knuckles handy! Sooo terrifying! The owner likes to hit things with sticks, and he also chains up the chair. Set the chair free Kenny! It deserves to be free!If you dig local music come check it out! You might make some friends for life while your there.

I went to The Elbow Room the other night. To have a few beers the bartender was an excellent host. Very clean establishment great music fun place to chill with friends. There was and incident with one of the patrons that could have ended very badly. But the bartender handled it like a boss that she is and defused the situation very quickly and professionally. FIVE STARS TO THE ELBOW ROOM. YOU GUYS ROCK

This is a killer place, an absolute staple in the Wichita music scene. Incredible hospitality, a stylish, quaintly designed interior managed by two of the nicest people you’ll ever meet. If you like this place, make sure you checkout Barleycorns as well, the same management owns this establishment, and it’s the best venue around.**also Tony Urban (who gave a “troll-like” review aboveis obviously nothing more than a troll.

Ive seen some of the greatest concerts at this bar. By far the best bar in Wichita, KS. They treat all musicians like family if you show a general respect. The local scene wouldnt be as strong without this bar. Stop in have a beer and enjoy some great live music.

It was too loud. I spent too much. Im never going back. Lol.. just kidding. . I read that on the back of an Elbow Room shirt someone was wearing. . Love it! Hey.. its a club that brings in all sorts of live music. It is going to be loud. Great place to see some local music or lesser known bands from who knows where. One of the few spots 8n Wichita to see some metal. One of the few places my band can play.. Keep it alive Wichita! !!

Small hole in the wall bar with the best service Ive ever received at a bar! One of my favorite bands played there and it was so small that each of us patrons got our chance to meet the band. I got to stand right by the stage, and they also have group seating for about 4-6 people to a table. You dont have to walk up to the bar unless you want to, and I appreciate the bartenders coming to the table and serving us. Great place for people that dont do well in big crowds.

Nice Little place to unwind and enjoy some local entrainment. Spent another evening here on March 28th, saw the group "Contact" very unique. Chris writes his own lyrica and if ya listen close, you can hear the depth of the words, understand the meaning and learn to appreciate the efforts in them.

Definitely a dive but if you like that sort of thing (and sometimes I doit really does the bill. But dont try calling because they dont answer and their mailbox is full. Also there website is outdated. Like I said a dive. I asked for a run and come and got what I expected.

Of the places in Wichita, the Elbow room has the right combination of room for people but doesnt feel like an abandoned warehouse. Best of all is the sound reinforcement makes you feel like youre at a bigger venue.

Kenny and Dariah Ballinger are total professionals in what they do. This is by far the best music venue in town as far as bars go, hands down. Its a great place with a great and loyal fanbase. The place is a little small and the sound on some bands could be a little better. But I highly recommend this bar!

Good people own this gem. Great place for live and original music. Your going to find creativity in the bands that play here. Your not going to find your average cover tune band here, but you will find some truly talented native to Wichita, as well as out of town musicians. Ive always been treated with courtesy, kindness and excellent service from the staff as well as a ton of hugs (who doesnt love hugsfrom the local patrons. Check it out! Oh and I dont drink alcohol and they are always willing to make me a fresh pot of coffee, yay!

Bathroom was small and wasnt clean. The smoking area was disturbing and the venue was super small. The music and sound quality was really good though! My friend and I had a good time!

I absolutely love this place. Kenny & Dariah have proven to be some of the best lovers of music in the Wichita area. They honestly care about musicians that play there. They share the love in many ways and it shows through customer service, drink prices, cleanliness of the bar & restrooms and the quality of entertainment that plays there. I’ve seen them open their home up to some of the traveling bands for the night to help them out on funds. And if there is a need to have a fundraiser they are always willing to accommodate. They truly care about their customers as well. Wichita is lucky to have them!

There are several things I love about this place. The music, the people it attracts, the sound quality and a whole lot more!I do have a couple suggestions though. One would be to remove the seating right by the stage and replaces it with movable tables and for concerts so its a little less awkward and the place flows better. The other suggestion is to work on speed and precision pouring on drinks. Your barstaff is made up of great people, I know they can pull it off :).Overall a great venue for bands and I have nothing but gradititude for a place that supports small bands local and beyond. I look forward to coming back.

I went here to see the Dimebag Darrel tribute show. It was a lot of fun, although very packed. I would definitely go back here.

The BED PE show was great! On the other hand they didnt run the a/c and it was so hot in there! The service is always slow and most of the time rude.... I just think the management is slightly incompetent. They should hire a coordinator who knows how to open the doors an start serving alcohol at 7!

One of my favorite places in wichita. Great live music even at the open jams, the sound is awesome, the "Glam dive bar" feel is very relaxed and comfortable for everyone, even when its packed. The flow of the room is solid and the bathrooms are always clean. Theres also a big fix yourself mirror in the bathroom waiting area, very female friendly bar.
