This jazz listening club is a great spot in the heart of Georgetown. The atmosphere is good for listening to jazz and experiencing a performance in an intimate and cozy spot. The tables are very close to the stage and close to each other. …

10/10 would recommend! Reservations needed in advance; usually 2 showings a night back to back. Very loud atmosphere, so if you are hearing sensitive if maybe avoid this smaller venue.

Absolutely fantastic! I can't believe that we haven't been sooner! We've known about Blue Alley for years, but never got around to going, until now! The club is small, which means every table has a good seat, close to the show. The sound …

Went to see Carol Riddick perform. I had a salad with grilled chicken.... It definitely hit the spot. My mom ordered the fried shrimp, highly recommend. I appreciated the fact that they didn't rush us out while still having a full glass of wine.

I had a great time at Blues Alley. This was my first time, actually at a jazz club. The performer Cecily was amazing. It was intimate, sexy and very alluring. A perfect date night or solo date.
