First Avenue Club,

1550 S 1st Ave, Iowa City, IA 52240, United States

"Was a nice venue with a big dance floor. Good restrooms. Served a decent meal."

"Good music. Packed seating. The bar line went quickly. They said doors open at seven so that is when we arrived but the place was already over half full and all the good upfront tables were taken. We paid for a table for four in the front but we weren’t able to get that despite arriving an hour ahead of time. All tables are pushed together in lines. Staff was nice. Bands were great. Parking is limited but nearby strip mall businesses are closed that time of night so our walk was minimal."

"Geoff Tate....hand down, amazing... enough said. The First Ave Club, love the people , the atmosphere just an all around good time. Little hot but were able to come and go as u please to get fresh air...most definitely a good time"

"Intimate space. Accustics could be better but the low ceilings make that difficult. Drink prices were fair and the facilities were clean and suitable for the size of crowd. Saving Abel put on a good show minus the technical issues"

"I was here for a wedding and they did an amazing job. I think the place poses some decorating difficulty, but my sister did it up well. Lots of space for dancing and room for many, many tables. My sister was very happy with how attentive the owner/cook was. As a member of the bridal party I saw management stay connected with bride throughout the whole event. The food was good, but definitely nothing special. Parking seemed tight, but was adequate for a wedding of 120. The place got a little warm when full of people and I wish they had the pool tables open for people to play."
