What the community says
“Always a gem! Great shows and it’s one of the few places that does early night drag shows if you don’t want to stay up past midnight! 8.20, 9.20 and 10.20!”
“Waited 60mins for an overpriced burnt pizza, honestly don’t understand the hype. Queried the wait time at 40mins and was quickly dismissed by staff stating ‘yes that’s the wait time’ this wasn’t made clear when we ordered. Haven’t been to the imperial in quite some time as the atmosphere and clientele had significantly changed to our disliking. Not a great experience for our first time back celebrating a friends birthday. Certainly won’t be coming back! We used to love this place on a weekend!”
“I had a great time here. Entry on a Friday night was $7.50, including cloak check. My drinks were good and affordable. The crowd was attractive and friendly, and the music was great. I would come here again.”
