Brick and Mortar Music Hall
The Verdict
"The stage has only a small elevation from the floor, so the front row is very close to the band when the venue is full. No food is served here, but El Farolito and Taqueria Cancun are just to the south."
What you need to know
A roughly 200-capacity music hall on Mission Street between 13th and 14th in the Mission, with the stage only slightly above the floor so on a busy night the front row is close to the band.
What to Expect
The booking covers indie rock, garage, punk, electronic, hip hop, and other genres, in a room small enough that the system carries the space. The bar runs along one wall, and there’s no reserved seating or balcony. The venue also hosts comedy and DJ nights. Tickets typically run $10 to $20 and some shows are free; doors usually open between 8 and 9pm. There’s no food, but the blocks south on Mission have plenty of taquerias, with El Farolito and Taqueria Cancun a short walk south.
Getting There
16th Street Mission BART is about a 5-minute walk south. The 14 Mission runs past the venue.
