1920 Tavern. Let's be honest. This place needs no introduction. Restauranteurs Jenna and Howard Aronowitz have created one of the most sought-after dining establishments along Canton Street - a locale that has its fair share of loyal customers while also welcoming visitors from near and far. Inspired by the sophistication and the playfulness of the “speakeasy” style, 1920 Tavern’s walls are lined with antique mirrors, crystal accents and globe lighting that provides a natural ambiance which makes it one of the best pubs in Roswell. Enjoy live music on Wednesdays/Thursdays from 7 pm and Sundays from 3 pm - 7 pm.

From the Earth Brewing Company's Back Porch Concert Series. Does this team ever stop? Tim Stevens, owner of From the Earth Brewing Co. (USA Today's Best Brew Pub in America, by the way), and Bask Steakhouse, puts on the wildly-successful Back Porch Concert Series in the location behind the brewpub each spring and summer. While the brewpub itself is known for its plethora of live entertainment, the Back Porch Concert Series provides for a larger footprint, bigger stage presence and majorly-enhanced audio-visual experience. Attendees can order local craft beer and wine, as well as dine on favorite bites from the From the Earth food truck.

Rock 'N' Taco. 100% built for live music, Rock 'N' Taco boasts a massive space for indoor and outdoor dining, two big bars, garage doors that roll up to create even more space, TVs galore and the largest screen in Roswell. With a stage outfitted in top-notch lighting and sound, Rock 'N' Taco is likely our #1 spot that both residents and visitors seek out to cut a rug. Local acts such as Reckless, Justin, Band X, Scotty Cram and DoubleTake are just a sampling of who rocks the place all night long (well, until 2:00AM on Fridays and Saturdays, we mean).

Standard at Roswell. Standard is one of Roswell's most well-known patios.

Josh Allen fans rejoice.

Alive in Roswell. While this isn't the typical music venue of which you might be thinking, Alive in Roswell is known for the many musical acts that play to the crowds up and down Canton Street and beyond. This monthly festival, taking place every third Thursday of the month from April through October, features crowds that range in attendance from 5,000 to 7,000. It's no wonder then that many of our local businesses bring in their own DJs, acoustic guitarists, singers, and bands to give passersby some good entertainment, while welcoming them in to shop, dine or grab a cup of coffee or cocktail.

The Gaslight Bar & Grill. Located just beyond the south end of Canton Street is The Gaslight Bar & Grill, a popular spot for locals to grab a good bite to eat before dancing the night away.

Gate City Brewing Co. It's not enough that this crew put Roswell on the map for the craft beer scene.
