Reborn as an upscale cabaret and cocktail bar, Willis Show Bar has been revived from its early “Show Bar” era. First opening in 1949, it was a hot spot jazz club until it closed its doors in 1978. The legendary bar lives again in its original Art Moderne-style ceiling and floor plan. The very unique main stage is still behind the bar and features live music along with cabaret performers, comedy and deejays. Willis Show Bar can comfortably accommodate up to 83 seated guests. The maximum capacity is approximately 115 guests, depending on the room configuration. We also accommodate large groups with partial buyouts. The venue can be tailored to fit your specific needs.
