Beautiful venue, definitely worth checking out if for nothing else to see the practically floor to ceiling photos and posters from musicians that have performed there over the years. Recently saw They Might Be Giants at The Fillmore while in San Francisco while on holiday (live in Chicago) and I'm sure I'll be back again. Easily accessible via SF bus lines, not overly expensive alcohol, clean and definitely historic.

Super fun. Great venue. Great music. Interesting history. Everyone whom works here is super cool. Some of the patrons kind of suck. But that's not the Fillmore's fault.. keep rocking xoxo

Great intimate venue with friendly, helpful staff. We saw Andy Grammer tonight, playing to a sold-out audience. The Fillmore is ~1000 person capacity and it was still reasonably easy to get drinks at the bar, and they had staff serving drinks to the floor regularly. There were a good amount of kids, 9 to 12 in the audience, and it was really nice to see the security offering them free bottles of Crystal Springs water. The historic building is very charming and well-kept and the posters and photos make you want to just wander around like a museum. We parked conveniently across the street at the well-kept Japan Center parking complex for less than $20.

I was at the Fillmore for a Stone Temple Pilots show. It was amazing. The walls inside the Fillmore are covered in a mosaic of posters for shows held there going back to the '60's. A veritable historical wallpaper coats the interior and there is ample standing room to enjoy the show. They have some balcony seating and a very eclectic atmosphere. It is a great place to take in your favorite band, or one you've never heard of before. If you get the chance, definitely add this place to your list if you are anywhere near San Francisco. Ciao.

A friend came to visit from the East Coast and suggest we go here to see a live band. Turned out to be a great experience. It is very intimate with great acoustics. The interior design is amazing. Makes you feel like you are thrown back a few decades in the past.
