MadLife Stage and Studios Reviews

This is one of the best live music venues I've been to. GREAT SOUND and Video production... and the food is good too! Full bar available with friendly bartenders to assist.

This place is awesome and always a good time, but the food lately has been disappointing.

Pecan trout was tough and flavorless. Chee burger was odd tasting and unpleasant. If you like this restaurant, go and go often, because they will not be around long. Service was good though.

Great venue and great acts! Food, drink and music right off downtown Woodstock. Always a great show here.

Love this venue! Fantastic staff, owner and entertainment!

Always a good time no matter who the performers are!

Great food and awesome music venue! So far I've seen a Pink Floyd tribute as well as a Nirvana tribute. Both were great and spot on. The best part is that it is local!

Great place we didn't go to a show but sat outside and had dinner. Good choices and good singer.

Love this venue. Great service tonight. Slippery When Wet was rocking. My second time seeing them. What a great band, so committed to depicting the real Jon Bon Jovi. Absolutely wonderful experience.

My wife and I visited about a month ago for dinner then Thunderstruck, the AC/DC cover band. We were totally impressed with the food, service ,the music venue and Thunderstruck absolutely rocked the joint. We've been back twice for dinner since and let's just say the first time was NOT a fluke. Already purchased tickets to a couple other upcoming shows which of course will be preceded by dinner. What an impressive blend of concepts that one might not think would work together, they blend it perfectly and we love it! If your an AC/DC fan go see Thunderstruck wherever you see they are playing...you will not be disappointed!

First time eating at madlife my Regis was Michaela she was awesome she took care of me like a champ food was delicious and fixed my cocktail that was a disaster in the beginning I would highly recommend Michaela

Food is pretty good, not great, but some interesting menu selections and basic burgers. The venue side is definitely awesome. Drinks are a little pricey, but a cool needed spot for downtown Woodstock. I just don't like that they have tables right at the front of the stage. I understand having high top tables toward the back, but tables in the front blocks having a good dance area.

They have a lot of fun cover bands. Prince tribute was awesome and looking forward to journey tribute next week.

If owners read this, this place would be awesome for a Spazmatics franchise. Just a suggestion. Saw them in Dallas and they would be awesome here.

Loved. Enjoyed the comedy. Easy parking. Laid back atmosphere. Will definitely go again.

Great place! Delicious food. Friendly atmosphere. Sweet venue for musicians to play and fans to enjoy!!!

Let me start out by saying I really like this venue. I would say closer to 5 stars. Also our server was five star. And the band was also 5 star. I saw Red Zeppelin and they were awesome. So why the 1 star? I helped the band unload after the performance only to find that the valet had left and they said my key was locked up! When I went to the bar area and they were still cleaning up, I got a completely snarky remark from the bartender. "If you are looking for your keys NOW, you don't need to be driving" remark, that lacked any sense of compassion or understanding for the fact that I was now stranded in Woodstock and was going to have to LYFT home and then LYFT BACK to pick up my car. ( 40 minutes each way)

I was not told anything by the valet attendant about the policy and I am mystified as to why they would not leave the keys with the wait or bar staff and then lock the key up last. Lastly, one of the staff showed me a sign outside that says, you have to get your keys before the valet leaves and they are NOT responsible for your car overnight.

Well, a sign is well and good, but who reads that board in the dark on the way into a concert? Perhaps if the valet actually mentioned the policy it would help! Or an announcement at the end of the show would be good.... or having someone walk through the venue and find the owner of the key? No, lets just lock the key up and the customer be damned. I mean, we posted a SIGN!

The outside SIGN is a poor way of getting out of bad service, after the fact. Don't leave people stranded MAD LIFE. Its not cool.

Venue is really nice and the acoustics are really good for a bar/venue and again I liked our server, but the more I think about this, the more of a low moment it has become.

Had a good time here a few weeks ago. They have a great sound system and every seat gives you a good view of the stage. The food is a little pricey. Service at the tables is okay. If you like music and don't want to travel to Atlanta, keep an eye on the bands here.

Went there last night, 11/20, to see Shyanne play. We got there early to eat before the show and the food was terrible. I first ordered the street tacos, and the fried green tomatoes. They were both awful. I then asked for the grilled chicken sandwich, because how can you mess that up! Well they figured out how. So, I ended up spending $35 on French fries, and that's with them taking the street tacos off my bill. Also, my coke was flat.

But, I was impressed with the venue itself. Very fun atmosphere. I would recommend eating somewhere else before the show!

what a fun place! great tribute bands, nice environment and solid service.

Great food, service, and music. Cannot wait to go out here again.

Great place for a date !!! Friendly Staff, Great Food, Amazing Music !!!! So much talent!!! Unknown Artist Night left me speechless, I was amazed and humbled by each and every artist.

Wonderful place in Woodstock for shows. Built specifically to welcome singers and bands so sound is excellent. Parking may be the only issue but well worth it.

Nice venue. Good food and good drinks. GET A TABLE!!! Standing room is limited. Sound is better on the sides but not really good anywhere.

We ordered the tacos and had to return them. They were so dry we couldn't eat them and they had no flavor at all. Definitely wont order food there anymore. The wait staff was very friendly and the manager offered to give us a free dessert but we declined the offer since we don't eat sweets. Great music place so I will go back for that but will definitely eat before I go.

Great place in downtown Woodstock! Wonderful performers and a great place for meetings. A real asset for the town.

Have seen Mothers Finest and Elvis Impersonator show. Standing audience by the bar tends to get in the way of paid seating...Boo!

A little pricey but great food and nice selection of beers. Pet friendly patio and great live music. I definitely recommend this place.

Fantastic, had the pork chop dinner, delish!
Great cocktails too.

Super cool casual restaurant with great front patio excellent food for this small venue and an attached concert venue so a really unique offering in the small-scale town

Fantastic food and service. Honey Glazed Pork chop was fabulous. Never had a bad meal there.

Best little local spot for great music, beer and food

Great food and great service! Waitress was very attentive. Saw the band The L.A. Maybe...outstanding show. Place was rockin'!

Great venue! Great band. Mother's Finest was awesome!

We were walking around the square looking for a place to eat and there were few people inside so we decided to give it a try .... what a Great decision! The service could not have been better and Tiffany checked on us often! Girlfriend had the fried chicken and I had the hot Turkey and bacon and cheese samich, and they were both Outstanding!! The cinnamon bread pudding was just as awesome! We'll definitely be back!

It was okay. We went for the music. The prices on the food were pricey. Drink prices were totally redickles. Over all it was nice but couldn't afford to make it a monthly night out. Not to mention most of the staff seemed like they didn't want to be there.

EXPENSIVE food for not a large amount. Service is fair to middling. Cool outside patio seating and outdoor music. As for the inside stage part, the sound system is great, bands always sound incredible there, but the MadLife Battle of the Bands "voting" system is a JOKE. You have to cheer loudest for the band you think should win, so everyone that came in to support their friend will just stand right next to the microphone and scream and beat into it. Stupid idea. Put the microphone on the stage and measure it from there to prevent cheating like that. There's never any parking, you have to park down below on Fowler Street at the Bank of the Ozarks or near the apartments.

Fantastic show tonight featuring Johnny Cash music. Great food and drink also.

Great venue! Tables were arranged for social distancing. No standing crowd. Live the intimacy of this venue. Bar service was fast and attentive. Restaurant food was exceptional!

Great dinner menu, great staff and a great place to see a show.

We went to see Liliac and it was a great show. The service was great. They were very accommodating of my wheelchair even though I wasn't able to notify them early. All the tables were spaced far apart.

fun spot to listen, drink and eat. burgers are my fav.

The entertainment was grat, the food I thought was over priced and not that good.

Beautiful evening at Madlife for patio music night.

Nice venue. The high top tables and menu selection we're a little disappointing.

Awesome venue and great drinks. Plan to have a great night

Love this place, they have great food and always the best local love music!

Back in downtown Woodstock, music fans should reserve some time for MadLife Stage & Studios, an excellent performance space with regular live music.

Its indoor stage offers intimate gig experiences, with less than 300 tickets available for each performance. The table-studded space also gives it a laid-back bar feel.

Outside, when the weather is good (and this is Georgia remember) MadLife is also able to boast a patio stage. The onsite grill serves food throughout the day, with a menu of takes on traditional southern flavours.

Unusually for such an establishment, this is a scratch kitchen, meaning everything is made and cooked in house, with the chefs going as far as smoking their own meat.

Best burger in Woodstock. Great beer selection and awesome venue for live music.

Very nice and cozy atmosphere. We dined outside on the patio and there was a duo playing folk/country music. The food was excellent as well as the service!

Great folks operating a great venue and restraunt with the best burger in Woodstock. The Undiscovered Artist Showcase is a true undiscovered gem in our community.

A wonderful place to social distance outside, with live entertainment on the weekend. Consistent quality food and great service.

Saw the Return. Great time listening to Beatles tunes and sharing drinks and laughs with great friends.

Good food, beer and drink selections. The stage with live music is a really cool feature and a fun atmosphere.

Very surprised by the food, amazing steak and lamb. Outstanding table service. Usually have cover bands in the music hall.

While we had wonderful service the food is not very good.

Food was fair. There was music playing in the dining area at the same time a band was playing making for a crazy loud experience and the inability to listen to either one. Valet was full so parking was problematic. We had a reservation on Open Table that they didn't have in their system, but luckily they were able to seat us anyway. Best thing we had was the street tacos; tasty!

Stumbled onto this place by driving by. Decided on some apps for lunch and was not disappointed! Madi was fantastic! Food was fantastic but the habanero wings are HOT!! (In a good way!)

The dish that I had was good, the drinks were good but they don't have great food options (reason for 4 stars instead of 5). Service was also great.

Table for 4 is for 4 very small people if you're in the balcony. Nice place.

Great house chips. Very light and crispy. Nice intimate venue. Balcony seats are best.

Great venue, excellent staff, good drink prices, yummy food!

$$ Wife and I saw "Departure" The Journey Tribute band here. We also ate and had drinks. The food was quite good, the service was excellent and the band was great. Nice venue at a reasonable price. Highly recommended visit for locals and visitors alike.

PLEASE LIKE my review if it has been helpful to you.
Thanks!

First time at this venue had an amazing time cant wait for the next show. Get tickets early or you will be standing..

Met friends at MadLife for dinner and a comedy show. Ordered the fried chicken with mashed potatoes and asparagus. The chicken was not seasoned and was tough, nothing tasted great, just ok. The comedy show was good and most of the comedians were funny? May give it another try in the spring time

The food was excellent. They were very busy. It was hard to get someone's attention.

We had a great time listening to The Tatums and a bunch of other performers at the showcase MadLife hosted. The atmosphere was awesome, as were the food and drinks!
