I haven't been to wilmington clubbing in decades, but the Queen has changed that. The place has great drinks and entertainment, and the street-lit walk down market street is charming. More

When we decided to get the reserved seating so we could eat upstairs, we thought the menu offered would be the menu as described on the website. When you get there, you realize that they only offer 1/16 of the menu selection, so if you don't like the extremely limited choices, you'll be hungry. Had we known that, we would... More

In the year since it opened the Queen has turned from a beautifully-designed music venue into mismanaged pit. A group of friends and I purchased tickets to a February 11 dinner show with seating starting at 7:00, and we arrived shortly after the doors opened. The venue had oversold the show and instead of being seated at a table on... More

This place could be great. But as it is, you buy your ticket under "general admission" but are NOT guaranteed a seat. How could this possibly be a good business model? I've been there twice and had to literally push and fight for a seat. It ruins and adds stress to what could have been enjoyable evenings. The night of... More

Saw a great show at the World Cafe Live in Wilmington, DE, the Angel Band. I had been there a week before to see Splintered Sunlight, a Grateful Dead soundalike band, and was pleasantly surprised. Got there about a half hour early and sat at the bar. View was great, sound was good, bartenders were friendly. I bought tickets for... More

My boyfriend and I have attended concerts at The Queen multiple times. At first we were attracted by the great music they have here, now we actively seek out shows at this venue! As a couple of seasoned concert-goers (25+ each year) we are both fairly particular about the venues that we'll go to. The Queen fits every bill! It... More
