To all you Lakes Region music enthusiast...If you haven't been to Jimmy's Jazz & Blues Club in Portsmouth you definitely need to go! It's only 45 minutes from Alton Bay so its an easy ride from the lake area.

What a great venue to see a show and by far my new favorite! They have had and are having some great musical artists. Tickets are relatively inexpensive for the quality of artist you are seeing. They serve a great dinner and the place is absolutely beautiful!! I went Sunday night to see a show (Walter Trout) and we had a fantastic time!!

Definitely worth the trip!

Have not been yet, but I agree that have an extraordinarily good schedule, probably better than any Boston club over the past few months

Living on the seacoast, I have been several times, and also watched the construction over the years to renovate the space. Check out the photos they have (It was originally built as a YMCA). Several of the artists give the space rave reviews as well, intimate and amazing acoustics too!!

Enjoy the shows and the food/beverages!!! Welcoming Fall to the island after an unexpected blast of summer this past week, the water was beautiful -PIG

So people that have been here, looking to go to a show, but what's the big difference between the $65 tickets and the $10 tickets (that seems to be my choices for the Thunder Birds). The ones to stage right seem to have a bar between the tables and the stage, can you see over the bar? Then there is a 600 section, looking at the pictures that might be in the upper level? How's the views from there?
I wish they had pictures of the sections facing the stage area on their web site.
Thanks for any help.
O, and is it worth going early for the food or grab something in town and just go there for drinks and dessert?

I wish they ever had pictures of the sections facing the stage area on their web site.

The bar is on the left if you’re facing the stage behind a brick wall with large windows…not good to see the show at all. The food there is very good and worth going early for. The upper level seats are very good.

If you PM me with your email address I’ll send you a video from inside that shows all the seating.

My daughter and I went to Jimmy's Jazz & Blues Club last night. Up front seats for the Benny Bernack III Quartet. Great food and service at reasonable prices. This is a top-notch venue. My daughter had been at a previous show where the band (Samples) failed to live up to standard. Management asked them to leave mid-show and gave everybody ticket refunds. That's a definite sign of doing everything possible to commit to quality. Five star recommendation, venue and the Benny Bernack III Quartet.

Went there last week for "local band night", inexpensive door charge and the food is very good. Had a great time, and this is an amazing location. Unfortunately, "local night" does not go all winter : (
