Reviews of Roadmender Northampton
Great venue. The sound was spot on
Go here if you want a really fun and positive night out!
I had the pleasure of performing here as the bass player/JPJ of a Led Zeppelin tribute band and was not only treated exceptionally well by all techs + staff, but was also given the extra bonus of an incredibly energetic and positive crowd! If you're looking for a good night out, go here!
Great live venue
Haven't been there for over 15 years.... hadn't changes but a great little venue and acoustics were amazing!
Great little venue and pleasant staff. Multi story car park over the road, and beyond the car park a couple of good pubs... cheap :-)
Nice intimate gig venue,spit and sawdust lol but all good ...drinks a fair price and pay and display car park just opposite the venue
Great concert venue, intimate without feeling overcrowded. Brilliant sound and good choice of visiting artists.
This is an excellent gig venue. Not too big so you can see what's going on. It is standing only . Bar prices are as you would expect....High however the staff were very efficient at serving people in rotation so although very busy waiting time was not too long. It appears that wheelchair access is ok as well as I saw several wheelchair users at the gig. I'm not sure that they would have been able to see much in the main auditorium as every one else was standing.
Overall for my first visit to the roadmender o was impressed.
Great night...simply laid out venue...decent beer... great bands
Great venue and well run. Door staff were friendly and the sound was spot on.
Good venue!, lots of parking and places to eat close, Joanne Shaw Taylor excellent as usual and what a bonus The Kris Barras Band opening, we would visit this venue again.
Excellent live venue, any gigs here are a joy
I looooove small venues!
Parking's easy in the area. Plenty of bar space so not too much queueing for drinks. And plenty of toilets too.
Oh but the air conditioning since the 'C' word is bloody freezing, might be nice in the summer, but on a frosty November evening not so!
A great music venue, a little on the small side, so don't go expecting something like the size of Rock City. But an intimate venue that gets some fairly big name bands there. The sound there is always great as well so you don't have to worry about trying to hear the music through a layer of audio mud.
One small problem being the fact that it is a small venue, the lack of bar space is annoying. Expect to have to queue gor a while. But that minor grumble apart I highly recommend The Roadmender. Go support your local music venue.
A decent size venue, well laid out with a good bar at very reasonable prices. The Roadmender centre has always catered well for the punk, ska, indie, new wave scene and much more. The building doesn't look that great from the outside and at first glance you'd think it might be closed down, but you can't judge a book by it's cover. Northampton itself is a bit of a dump but I'm only reviewing the venue ;-). On this occasion I went to see Theatre of Hate supported by Derek Forbes (ex Simple Minds) and his band and both were brilliant.
Brilliant night out, great venue, fab entertainment
It was really good not to over crowded and they have good bands there
Needs to have both bars open really. Almost impossible to get served with just the foyer bar active for busy gigs
Rough and ready venue, but good for small acoustic gig. Bar staff excellent. Prices too. Car park opposite now stays open until midnight which is a bonus.
Love this place! Been going here on and off since 1993. The most recent was December 2019 for the Happy Mondays. Just as good and well run venue as it was 26 years ago!
Cute little hall to watch gigs..
Great music Venue
Random concept smashed it, this place held the event perfect. Well done roadmender!
Always a friendly welcome and we appreciated the new air con as the gig we were covering was packed. As a photographer, the larger pit was good, too - it used to be a squeeze getting in. Good clean loos, although in the bar area a light would be good: if the bar door closes you're in the dark until you find the loo!
COVID passes or clear tests from that day were obligatory - I have no problem at all with that.
Good sound, as ever and, for a fan, the light was good. Photography wise, I've now got a new Lightroom preset: Roadmender orange!
Photos downloaded from camera to phone and edited in Photoshop Xpress.
Still a bit deaf after witnessing the Wildhearts here last night. Perfect town centre venue. Plenty of bar staff, no queuing for the toilets. Ideal for any hard rocking man.
First time visiting the venue. Car park right across from the venue. Small venue but felt much bigger. Great sound. Well recommended.
Great venue, clockworks & Reytons smashed it. Great mosh pit
It's great to have any live venue in the area you live. There aren't that many acts there that I want to see but I am quite old so I would not expect there to be. However, the venue is just right for live music. When I've visited there has never been any sign of trouble and although there must be security it seemed low key and didn't stop people having a good time. There is a bar and the sound quality was good.
Shed.seven. great gig. Nice venue bar prices not bad either.
Great night
Centrally located with reasonably decent acoustics for guitar bands. Not very big. Decent bar.
Great independent venue, keeping the scene alive.
Great music venue. Easy to get served at bar. Great bar staff and staff in general
An excellent music venue.
Lots of cheap parking nearby with a short walk to the venue itself. It is painted black inside but not particularly dark with a good space for the merchandise sellers. A good sized bar with lots of plastic glasses. This venue is fantastic for bands as it has a fantastic sound system and they can put on a terrific light show. Gigs are not overly expensive and there is always a good range of musical tastes catered for. I have been a few times now and am always happy to come back for a gig.
great music venue
As a first timer I went to the xmas R&B party...staff friendly & welcoming, music/dj/atmosphere spot on! Not too cramped which was nice. Only thing I'd say is the toilets could do with a revamp!? More seating? I'm definitely looking forward to another night there.
great place to see a band
Nice evening with some very special people.
The only venue around here that attracts decent bands
Great venue for a gig
Great gig by the Stiff Little Fingers
Fantastic night
Went there for a Ska concert. The place is nice and can accommodate lots of people. My critic goes to the bar 2.... Only 2 people serving so it took long waiting times to have a beer and at half of the concert they've closed because all the drinks were finished..... Good but not great place
We visited the Roadmender last week to watch the Brand New Heavies, and late last year for a ska and 90's house event. On both occasions we had a brilliant time. The atmosphere was great, drinks priced well, friendly crowd, not a hint of trouble. The venue today is just as good as when I visited it 20 odd years ago, as a drunken student, well worth a visit.
I like the roadmender. The main room room has 2 sets of doors (front and back) making it easy to get into the room when bands are playing. The back bar (when open) is a sure fire way to get served quickly. Sound quality on point. All good.
Been here many times over the years, great sound acoustics for gigs. Toilets could do with improvement though. This time when we were there the ladies lights were completely out and everyone had to get there phone torches on! Haha
I am a long term fan of the Roadmender and been going since the 70s. Relatively small venue most recently watched Heaven 17 and their top quality live show. Been there and done the big bands but will always prefer a small venue where you can see the whites of their eyes 👍🏽 The Roadmender always punches above its weight with the quality of the bands and long may it remain that way 😀
We were here to see Krysthla. It was the basement by the side, around the back of the Roadmender. I never even knew it was there. It just basically a downstairs cave. But there is nothing wrong with it. It seemed a bit devoid of atmosphere to begin with but soon picked up when the bands came on. You can see the stage easily no matter where you stand. The bar staff were friendly, which makes a nice change. Beer weighed in at £4.50 a pint. Loads of parking nearby and at only £1 for the evening to park in a multi-story that was a bargain for keeping your car safe.
Great venue. Stage and space adequately sized. Helpful staff. Customers are able to vape throughout the venue without having to go outside and be subjected to cigarette smoke from smokers.
Great venue. Always a good sound.
Just watched UFO at the Roadmender. Band were brilliant and venue excellent. Plenty of friendly bar staff, clean toilets, and a great atmosphere. Long live small, quality venues like this.
Best gig garage this side of Brazil.
great night at hospitality event with dj marky. Friendly doorstaff, reasonable drinks prices, good vibe, banging sound system with rumbling bass through the floorboards.
smoking area little congested and toilets need improvement, but don't rate a club based upon these facts.
out of towner stayed at park inn 5 mins away. reasonably priced
Been to Roadmender a couple times before, good amount of events here for all ages and music fans. Several stages which also adds to the variety of stuff going on. Drink prices are somewhat reasonable and good staff.
Popular music venue in Northampton. There is a multistorey car park situated opposite, which is ideal. The venue itself is clean and well organised. The bar doesn't sell snacks, but the drinks weren't badly priced. There is a seperate area to the main stage, but no seating. The sound quality was quite good, although a little boomy. The toilets were even clean! A great little venue and I'd definately come again.
If your looking to see live music in a small venue and with reasonable ticket prices this is for you.
Saw Gary Numan there on Sunday 25th March. Amazing show and great atmosphere. Highly recommended.
Great venue, helpful staff and proper music!
Superb gig but too rammed for my wife to enjoy
Small venue needing TLC which is surprising given the wide range of acts that appear there. Can sit in the bar and watch main show so you don't have to stand and get crushed if it's sold out
Large queue to go in however I did attend on NYE. Cool smoking area upstairs. The floor is amazing - you can feel the bass in your legs!
The best place for live music anywhere
Fantastic live music venue,with smaller venue at the rear.When its full its the best place to see live music in the county,bar can get very busy,sound is great prices reasonable.An institution in every sense
Great live entertainment venue, good sound system, professional organised door entry and flexible cloak room service. Open dance floor, no seating available normally.
Ok - easy parking opposite with large pay and display. Drinks reasonable, acoustics good but views all down to how well you can crane your neck!
What an excellent venue, always had an amazing experience, friendly staff, brilliant atmosphere and always leave smiling ear to ear! Can't recommend enough! ❤️
Quality night random concept NYE was mental! General levy lit the place up and problem central went in...would recommend to anyone who loves drum and bass to try this venue out.
Great venue, first time there and was extremely surprised just how good it is. And for those that wonder, yes, there is seating in the bar area.
Honestly one of the best music venues in the world! Great atmosphere, great bar staff and fabulous sticky floor!
Went to see The Floyd Effect, most impressive. The Roadmender is a ok venue, drinks are not over priced, but the toilets are on the poor side.
Love the Roadmender. Great wee place to see a gig, wide variety of shows, nice town centre location, bar prices not too expensive. A great place to see a show!
I have very fond memories of working at the Roadmender Centre in 1988-9 as an arts worker. I used to occupy a room downstairs where i taught screenprinting to small school groups and interested parties. It was a venue back then but probably on a smaller scale. I saw a few bands while i worked there, mostly goth bands such as The Mission, Fields of the Nephilim and All About Eve and i nearly saw the Happy Mondays but they cancelled on the night. Northampton's very own goth lords Bauhaus apparently used to rehearsed there. i was a massive fan but sadly never saw them live though it definitely made me apply for the job when i saw it in the job centre.
Im glad to see the place is still a venue.
Great local music venue! Quality acts on regularly in a venue which provides great sound and experience!
Excellent venue.good choice of acts.don't expect luxury surroundings but a good night out here
Not overly pistaking prices for a club in the City, £4 for a Carslberg Extra Cold, like the layout that was good for the multi stage Fusion Rave, I like the rooftop smoking area. The bouncer burst into the cubicle to scare the life out of us before he said he was only joking, nearly dropped a load outside of it, HAHAHAHA!
Great gig with my band Basement Strippers
First visit here, definitely won't be my last. Great venue, great act and grwat prices for tickets and drinks
Great little venue...nicely priced drinks and with parking across road at only a quid for the evening. Recommend it
Every event I been to was great. Love the venue and sound. Also the security are friendly.
Great venue, the sound and decor (brought in by the promoter Tearout and Bristek) were incredible, the staff were friendly and efficient. Great place!
Great venue.. Relaxed and friendly... We watched the Feeling and the sound was great... Would recommend 👍
One of the best music venues in the country. The layout is perfect with super friendly staff to create a fantastic atmosphere
A great night of live music from The Repro Jam Squad and The Fatback Band. Good DJ too.
Could have done with some more tables and chairs.
Great venue! Love it here, cool place with a vibrant and diverse range of music and events.
Always a good night out good venue to work as well
Went to a disco there with work . It was busy a wide amount of different music the please everyone. DJ was up beat which made it even better
The Floyd Effect were great, the venue however could do with a refurb and a better range of drinks!
Great venue..medium sized,cool atmosphere,friendly bar staff.
Great venue, good bar staff and quick service. Could do with more seating for the breaks.
Fantastic venue. So good to be back.
Quite a small venue but good atmosphere. Shame about the plastic beer cups. Glass is more classy.
Great venue, unpretentious, great sound, friendly staff, reasonable prices for drinks.
Nice venue for live music although it is a bit of a squash at times.but hey I suppose that is my age 😁
The bar is good and the bar staff get to you quickly. Good music, good sound. Cool lighting. Good amount of places to sit.
Great place for local bands and big names. Door staff are fun unless you forget your jacket.
Best music venue in Northampton
Good selection of bands
Beer selection not great
Lost 1 star could do with more seating when there all day otherwise an excellent venue and can't wait to return
Always a good show on at Roadmender, I've spent a lot of my youth raving out to Subrockerz and most recently to see the Dead Kennedys which was insanly good!
Great venue with some amazing acts. Well worth checking out their listings of gigs.
Friendly staff, really good sound. A proper gig venue.
Great venue, friendly staff and amazing parking!! Will definitely choose this venue again!!
A bit dated but one of the best venues the town has to offer, good bands and club nights
Been a few times over the years. Heads up, don't park in the multi storey opposite as it closes at 12.... and your car will be locked in like mine did 🤣
Always a great night out.. great venue with awesome acts
Great venue always have a proper rave up when I'm in there👌🍾🍾

Live wire great band
Disappointed ...contacted the venue on website link and was told could purchase a ticket on the door...got there early (30 mile drive) only to be cross examined about response from website and told we couldn't come in. Do believe it was a 3rd party contact button on web page but a complete let down
Nice place, enjoyed the event. Toilets however are small and the bar was moving very slow.
