Mr. Smalls Theatre Review

Funhouse was small venue with inadequate air conditioning....carpet on floor and rubber mats in bar area made for difficult dancing. I went because of the band...probably won't go back because of stated reasons.

Interesting venue with multiple stages. A converted church (what isn't these days?).

18th Century church converted into a music venue. Unique in that there are different areas throughout the church to hang out in aside from the main area. Main area with stage also offers balcony seating, May cost extra to sit there during live music acts. Smoking allowed on the outside balcony that offers some seating and a couple of tables. Food served here as well.

Small location with balconies. It's hot, so bring a hair tie or buy a cold beer.

The building is ok but is no where near handicapped accessible. The funhouse is on the third floor with no elevator or anyway to get up there. If you have trouble climbing stairs, stay home.

Love this place! Love every time I go how much it is evolving! So much new amazing space to enjoy your favorite bands or see new shows- you can have an amazing musical experience here- great sound quality awesome vibes! Keep rocking Mr smalls!

Best venue left in Pittsburgh untouched by a commercial cult or cultural trust affiliation. Some of my favorite shows took place here. The atmosphere and aesthetic of this old church turned maze contributes to the fun and feel of every show.

Booze prices are fair, also the VIP option is a fun perk.

We went and saw frank turner here, nice small home town venue, all the staff were super friendly for out of town people such as myself, drink prices were good for being a concert, the only downside we came across was there is no venue parking so you have to park on streets around the venue and there are really no signs saying where it was okay to park and where it wasn't okay to park, but with parking being the only downside I highly recommend the venue

Such a cool venue! Always the best bands and always expanding to improve! Their new VIP area upstairs along with the food available was a welcome change!

Thanks, guys!

Just a phenomenal place to see shows. Whether your up in the Funhouse or down in the theater, its just a great venue.

Mr. Smalls is a nice venue. They serve drinks but nothing crazy. There is plenty of room for general admission the floor is huge and perfect for somebody who does t like small enclosed venues it has a wide open floor.

A great part of the small town of Millvale's story. What started out as reclamation project in an old church, via a recording studio from members of Rusted Root, has blossomed into an amazing venue with unique food and drink options. Explore nooks and crannies that have been repurposed creatively as seating, tea rooms, and lounges. Solar on the roof and great owner/operators.

Awesome venue, good food, good beer, plenty of space, great acoustics

Amazing venue! Great acoustics and fantastic atmosphere. It is no wonder so many big bands make their way to this small stage.

Some of the greatest stages on Earth, combined with great Pittsburgh people, drinks, and food, all packaged into a place you can't believe, even once you've seen/heard it.

As always it made me feel safe and secure and the show put on there was amazing.

The place is awesome, cool enough to hold a good concert. Sound was amazing at the COB concert yesterday. Enjoyed the place. Not very big but I loved it.

Such a cool venue! The ballroom was really great, staff were really friendly, and the sound guy did a fantastic job. I would highly recommend this place, especially since food and other stores are really close in proximity. If you're looking for a really great place to see a show in PA, this is it.

Such an awesome venue, whether you're in the theater or the Fun House, it's always great sound!

Great place and the VIP balcony option is the best deal I've ever had

First time there. Beautiful building and good vibes. Definitely recommend to see shows there!

Nice venue. Awesome acoustics. Parking ridiculous. Venue was hot

One of my favorite little concert venues. Small, intimate, and usually short lines for the bars and bathrooms even during a concert. It's standing room only which could be an issue for some, but not for me.

Small and needs more seats for disabled and elderly.

Food is is ok, over priced for what you get and beverage are over prices as well

Always jump at an opportunity to see shows here. General admission , so first come and fight for a place near the stage. The shows always have cool light and the sound doesn't destroy your eardrum, like some venues I've been too. The room is good size and you can escape upstairs to go outside for some fresh air or get a bite to eat. Parking at the venue is free ( mostly street parking) and the staff usually does pre entrance check while in line to get everyone in faster.

Cool little venue, good bartenders and good environment. Little bit of different things going on every time you're in there.

The food was really good as we sat in the street enjoying the weather and some excellent music! Our favorite act was Jeremy Caywood - excellent performance! The hummus was the best I have ever had and the bread that came with it was perfectly cooked. We met the owner and co-owner, Mike Speranzo and Liz Berlin, who really made us feel welcome!

Love the venue. Have been to two shows and both were great. Good crowds for a smaller venue. The acoustics are good and the drinks are reasonably priced. You can get some of the more mainstream craft beers. The bathrooms are clean.

Great venue to see a show. Lots of space to move around, prices are good, and food is great

The rooftop bar is a great place to hang out. Great place to spend the evening listening to live music and socializing with friends.

Hands down one of the best venues in the Pittsburgh area. Staff is super friendly as well.

Nice venue which used to be a church. There's still some stained glass opposite the stage at back. Have normal cuos for the water cooler as opposed to cones (looks at Rex) whic.v h is much appreciated. Great acoustics.

Wow! Great music venue. The acoustics were great. The sightlines were pretty good for a shorty like me plus they have several different spaces to hang out in.

This venue brings in some of my favorite Artists year after year. Latest show I caught was Deerhunter who put on a great show. Also Sounds like the venue is doing well, as they are looking to expand there space soon.

If you go here I recommend you get VIP seating. It's an absolute steal. I love it. You are cooler, you have seats, you get food, and your view is good too.

Clean, spacious, excellent sound!!! good food, cool old repurposed church

It is a wonderous place, a place you can step from out of the bustling streets and into a haven. A haven for people who love music. You may feel like you have never belonged somewhere in your life before. This is a place that made me feel like I belonged.

There are smiling faces galore and people who may feel totally the same way you did walking through the doors of a new venue, randomly and purposefully smiling because the atmosphere and music bring you into, just bliss.

Dress like who you are. Drink water all night if you want. Be present. Who knows, I might be there too and if you see me, gimme a hug or a high-five!

There's a cafe downstairs too worth checking out! I also love the fact that the owners are doing so much in the community helping foster kids and such with music and addiction recovery and just everything beautiful. Oh I'll be back for sure!

Staff is nice, food is really good. Easy to get to. Good vibe.

Wonderful venue! Great staff, great view, great sound.

Cute venue. Crappy parking. Kinda pricey. 3 stars for intimate environment

Took my granddaughter too a concert there and the staff was great and courteous..

Very intimate theater where even at the back I felt like I was close to the stage. Great acoustics and awesome style inside and out.

We haven't been to smalls in a couple years. Not so new renovation I was unaware of, was awesome. Another stage and common area away from the noise. We will return.

Amazing space, but slow to get people out of the cold.

I've been to a few shows here, and it's an awesome venue for a show, being a converted church.

They over book shows to the point you are packed in.

This is by far the best music venue in Pittsburgh. It has five bars, two upstairs smoking patios. Pretty good food and 4 dollar pounders. Acoustics are great and if the show is in the funhouse you can almost touch the stage!

One of my favorite places to go to shows in Pittsburgh at the moment. Emo Karaoke night is a must see each month

Love that this place has developed into an everything venue: food merch, music. What more could you ask for?

Incredible music venue for small(er) shows! Upgrade to VIP for what you'll be spending on drinks anyway for a reserved seat & a better view.

Memory forever, seen Ray Luzier for the first time since we got out of high school. Excellent experience.

Very cool venue. Great staff. Love the sound and atmosphere

Great venue, I've seen some fantastic shows here for super cheap, and I've left almost every time blown away by the quality of the artists that perform here.

Love the shows here, the venue is great. There's a spot for everyone and the VIP pass is worth it since it goes toward your tab.

Fun house has very cool vibe. Can see from pretty much anywhere.

Mr.Smalls is small, and parking is a hard thing to do but, it's amazing. It only holds up to 650 people. Anyway, the shows are pretty awesome, they get hot and sweaty though. It is hard to move sometimes. But after the show you can meet tthe bands! Ive been going here for at least 3 years now!

Just left a show with people I knew & acts I didnt know. We with my groom we had an amazing time. The atmosphere was great for an enjoyable time. All the bands were great. Good night good times.

Nice size venue, not too big or too small. Several bars with good beer selection. Pretty good variety of shows and tickets are prices reasonably. Parking in the area is limited (mostly street parking), and the bathrooms are a little shady.

Always cgreat shows! They have a helpful side entrance for wheelchairs
