The area
Neighborhood: Stare Mesto (Old Town)
One of the oldest neighborhoods in town represents the medieval heart of Prague. It’s no surprise it is bustling with tourists every time of day. Križovnický square, overlooking Charles Bridge with Prague Castle in the background, is probably the most beautiful square in the city. Its unique historical atmosphere of gothic houses and churches, cobblestone streets and squares, and stone towers blend together with the modern era. A vast array of bars, restaurants, dance clubs, international brand shops, galleries and hotels bring life to the old city. With its charming and picturesque cobblestone streets, the nightlife and parties will surely be unforgettable.

    Tourist trap
    First thing I couldn’t help notice was the stench of urine and cigarettes. When I say stench, it literally sticks on your clothes and hair. Really off putting. Waited 20 minutes to get tickets as no one was there to serve us (lights in the ticket booth were off) We were told we had to leave our coats in the cloakroom even though I told him I was freezing. He said ‘it’s 26 degrees inside leave your coats’ then pointed to the tips jar. I left my coat but 26 degrees was a lie as I was genuinely freezing, turns out he just wanted tips.. They don’t half cram people in for such a small venue. Only one person serving at the bar for at least 30 people inside. As for the music, it was a shambles. 2 seconds of singing and then 2 minutes of random drum playing then a break and repeat. Definitely a tourist trap. What a waste of money.

    Superb value for money
    We paid roughly £12 each for entry to the Ella Fitzgerald night, which felt like great value for money. The music was good, and the drinks were cheap but decent quality. The only downside is the absolutely bizarre seating - I have no idea why it’s been laid out in such a way. Look past that though, and you’ve got a fun evening of good music ahead of you. Well worth a visit when you’re in Prague.

    Above average
    Band and singer good, drummer amazing! However the welcome isn’t friendly and the seating arrangements poorly laid out….so over filled difficult for people to get seated and up for a drink which made experience uncomfortable and frustrating at times. We sat near the exit so able to leave promptly at the end. Wouldn’t want to try and get out there in a hurry. Agree re comments on tips for coats being stored..almost forced to give one.

    If you like good jazz, don't go!
    I was looking for a good jazz session in Prague, I'm a musician myself, and I don't want to be respectless, but the musicians playing were not good enough for the price payed for a concert in the club that names itself "the oldest jazz club in the world". They were ok for some jazzy situations like weddings or cocktails, but not for being protagonists on a stage. Now I understand why their names were not announced in the programme. Apart form this, the publicity (I went there the 1st of August) said explicitly that the evening was a tribute to the greatest jazz pianists of all times like Oscar Peterson, Chick Corea and Keith Jarrett, and the combo didn't play a single piece of them. Frustrating jazz (???) evening. Don't go.

    Bad customers service
    Booked tickets in July 2022 for Christmas Day Evening. Arrived at the venue to be told that the concert had been changed and that there weren't any available seats. Money for the tickets were taken from my account 3 days before arrival so they would have known about the change before the money was taken. Told the money would be refunded!!!! Don't trust these guys.

    Bad experience
    Paid double for slightly better seats which are not worth it. The program said groove but it was not really. The band took a break of 20 min after only 5 songs so very little music for lots of money. Try to find a better jazz club

    Spoiled evening
    Very bad experience. Ruined evening. The organizers sold at least twice as many tickets as the capacity of the club. Chaos already at the entrance, where people did not know how to get in - no one was managing it. A long line at the bar where only one guy was serving. From the point of view of cultural performance, it was not bad, but the organizational chaos and the crowded hall spoiled the experience. We left halfway through the concert. We complained but the organizer made an excuse that their reservation system went wrong and they accidentally sold more tickets. But he was obviously lying. This experience appears here regularly. They obviously base their marketing on a glorious past, but a very poor present. I am so sorry abou this!

    Not the experience we were expecting
    Went with my 2 sisters, we booked vip seats but when we got there discovered that they had given seats to standard ticket holders, so why sell VIP tickets. We couldn't sit together so despite the music bring good our evening was ruined with one of us not having a seat at all. Management confirmed they had over sold tickets, seems to be a theme for this venue. Very badly managed. Would not advise purchasing VIP tickets. We were offered a free drink as compensation which hardly compensates the money spent.

    Big big tourist trap
    Never ever go there! Tourist Trap! We went for New Year's Eve and it was horrible. It was too fully packed (no way to get out in case of emergency), the food was served in the theatre with no tables and later not even plates. There were no forks for the buffet (so everyone just used their fingers!). The music was very boring, the singer is very silent and no entertainer. Also, the band played not as long as promised. Most of the time, there was no music at all. The seats are very hard and not comfy at all. Be lucky to face the band directly otherwise you have to sit sideways. Plus we had to beg for our promised New Year's Toast! And we had to serve ourselves! Never ever go there! Big big tourist trap!

    Not a great performance
    Not a great performance for Louis Armstrong hits. Trumpeteer and Pianist were excellent but the singer and double bass player not so great. Layout of seating is odd - only VIP couches actually face the stage. For most of the area you are side on - crick in the neck results from turning towards the performers. I've been to worse places - but also to a lot better.

We had a very nice time. We are expats living in Prague for over 5 years and went here for the first time tonight (June 3, 2023). The singer was really talented with a beautiful voice - singing equally well in French, English, Spanish and Czech. All of the musicians appeared to like each other and have a good time which gave a good vibe. We will be back!

I was in a concert in Reduta Jazz Club, which was in the heart of the city center.. the place is very compact, but stylish which makas you feel the ambiance of old times.. you are very close to the state and all the walls are covered with famous visitors of the club.. the seats are also named with those names.. the price is reasonable..
Highly recommended for good music and have fun for 2 hours..

Been there for a jazz concert by a trio (singer, drums and keyboards) on 23/12. Rather short set. The choice of songs was weird, to say the least. Jingle bells and White Christmas have their in Western culture, but are not jazz. Neither is Route 66 and several of the other songs. The singer was at the eve of his career, the drummer less than impressive. Very disappointing, given the reputation of this place.
Service at the bar sucked, slow and apathic to the point that I missed the opening song, even though I went down to the bar 10-15 before start. Hint to the staff: If two persons work at the bar, they should both be working, as opposed to one working at the other staring blankly. Avoid.
