Get ready to travel back in time: The Venuea brand new dueling piano bar, jazz lounge + restaurant — opens at 1626 Main St. (right next to its sister restaurant, Main Course) on Fri., April 15. Bonus: You’re invited to the grand opening celebration from 8-11 p.m. 🎹

If you’ve been to Savannah, GA or New Orleans, LA, you may already be familiar with dueling piano bars. Think: two musicians on stage with two grand pianos, entertaining (and interacting with) the audience.

The Venue’s restaurant and jazz lounge plans to bring a sense of nostalgia to Main Street with time-honored cocktails, world-class dishes + jazzy tunes. Restaurant hours are Monday-Sunday, 4 p.m.-midnight. Guests can enjoy live jazz shows:

  • Monday-Thursday: Piano Bar Show, 6-8 p.m. and 8-11 p.m.
  • Friday-Saturday: Dueling Piano Bar, 6-8 p.m. and 8-11 p.m.

Patrons can also see dueling pianos on First Thursdays on Main. Another perk: Happy hour is every day, 4-7 p.m.*
