World Cafe Live

Editorial Review

Gigs at World Cafe get filed under "must do" for American musicians touring the East Coast. World-famous space includes a top-notch venue that can accommodate 600, with classy bar/resto that can seat another 100. Expect "older," more-established artists such as George Winston. Go to town on their stellar lamb stew (amazingly priced at $10) and chardonnay before watching the show. During the week hit the happy hour and enjoy free munchies, free parking and free (and skilled) DJs worth asking what they're playing—you'll come home with pages of notes.
