   The hostess was rude and a lil’ ageist. We had one drink order filled and left after an hour passed with empty glasses - it wasn’t an ‘in the weeds’ situation. Yes, we know you are four stories underground, but I’m sure you could figure out how to properly wire a drum kit (buy a drum shield with all those sold out rezzies!) where it doesn’t sound like gunfire. I *guess* if you need to go to say you’ve been, go for it. I was told by a number of folk that this was a can’t-miss when we visited and what an absolute letdown.

   Thanks for sharing your feedback. While we’re disappointed your visit didn’t meet expectations, we appreciate the chance to learn and improve. Our team is committed to treating every guest with respect—ageism or any form of discrimination has no place at Ghost Baby. While we didn’t receive specifics, we’re following up to ensure all interactions reflect our values. We appreciate you mentioning our live music, as we try to offer a diverse range of performances to suit different tastes at no charge. Being a unique underground venue in a 150 year old lagering tunnel poses challenges with volume at times. We’re continuing to refine our service and sound setup to better balance ambiance and comfort in our unique space. We appreciate you giving us a try and hope you’ll consider a return visit.

   We were so excited to visit, but then extremely disappointed to wait 45 minutes for the band to start. Our waitress came by infrequently and pushed us out well before the two hour period.

   Hi Krista, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We strive to provide guests with an unforgettable haunt each night at Ghost Baby, and we’re sorry to have missed the mark during your visit. While we offer complimentary live music, our bands don’t play continuously. Your 8:00pm reservation was seated 15 minutes early, but the next set began at 8:15, which caused the delay in music. We apologize for the confusion. More importantly, we’re sorry the service felt rushed or inattentive. That’s never our intention. We’d love to welcome you back during a set time of your choice and provide the warm, attentive service you deserve.

   The vibe was moody and magnetic — equal parts speakeasy charm and sultry sophistication. Low lighting, plush seating, and the hum of live music set the tone for a night that felt both intimate and electric. What really stood out, though, was the energy of the space. There’s a sense of mystery at Ghost Baby — like something might happen, or someone might walk in, and everything could shift. And don’t skip the espresso martini shots — they’re served in edible chocolate cups.

   We used to go Ghost baby pretty often. Now it deteriorated into a very low class loud cheap hang out place where you're being told upon walking in "you have your reserved table for an hour and a half". Really? Well, the "show" was so bad and so freaking loud that we left after 20 minutes. Not coming back anytime soon.

   Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. At Ghost Baby, we strive to provide an unforgettable experience every night, and we’re sorry to hear we missed the mark during your visit. We kindly remind guests of their reservation timing to help us manage flow and is never meant to make guests feel rushed—we apologize if it came across that way. We also understand that the music volume in our Den can vary based on the performance and crowd. If it's ever too loud, guests are welcome to enjoy their drinks in our quieter Rattle Room. We'd love the chance to welcome you back and provide a better experience. Please reach out—we’d be happy to help with your next reservation.

   Hi Dawna, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts with us. At Ghost Baby, we’re committed to giving our guests a memorable experience every night. While we understand that dining can be an important part of a night out, Ghost Baby is a unique cocktail and live music venue located 40 feet underground, and as such, we do not have a full kitchen on site. Our main focus is creating a lively atmosphere with delicious drinks and live music, so we’re glad to hear you enjoyed those parts of your experience. We look forward to hosting you again soon and thank you for your continued support! -Erin
