Description

Since it opened in 2005, Joe's really has been one of the San Fernando Valley's greatest bars, with live entertainment nightly and a large dance floor. The Burbank nightclub is renowned for booking top country-music performers, but rock, swing, rockabilly and blues musicians often appear on Joe's low stage, augmented by regular karaoke nights. The expansive room, decorated by a mural of famous musicians, looks even larger with mirrors lining the walls. For all of its allure as one of the Valley's leading live-music venues, Joe's Great American Bar & Grill is also a hardcore sports bar, with no less than seven television sets, including two with 100-inch screens. In-house diversions for barfly athletes include darts and a pool table. During football season, the grill opens early at 9 a.m., with breakfast available until 11 a.m. The menu features such basic bar-food staples as burgers, sandwiches, soups and salads, and appetizers like buffalo wings and potato skins. The overall mood is unpretentious, and Joe's is just as much a comforting, welcoming neighborhood bar as it is a live-music club and a sports bar. Full bar. Ages 21 & over. Free lot parking and on the street.
