Please buy food/drinks to support this amazing venue. Please tip your servers well. Please respect the stage. It's good karma.


Not your typical mic. What separates us: We attract non-performers, a true crowd. We have the feel of a real SHOW.


The Brooklyn Music Kitchen is not your typical venue, offering a big, elevated stage, state-of-the-art sound and lighting, comfy seating, an intimate vibe, and absolutely INCREDIBLY YUMMY food.
