Lola's Saloon

Since 2008, Lola's Saloon has been one of the top venues in North Texas, arguably the best in Fort Worth. Each week, local and national acts shuffle through the bar, which, perhaps thanks to the name, has a looser, more comfortable feel than its counterparts in Dallas. The décor behind the bar is a mix of thrift-store artifacts and vintage metal signs. The capacity tops out at around 300 and the stage sits only a few feet off the ground, so each show has an intimate feel, especially when acts like Dr. Dog and Fleet Foxes drop in for a show.
