How loud is Raglan Road?

[grossmansr]

My DD7 is sensitive to sound (fireworks, ambulances, fire drills, etc.) and I was wondering how intense the music is here? Like, rock concert loud? Or just lively pub loud? I've always wanted to eat here and I think she would enjoy the show but I'm hesitant.

It can be loud, even in the side room because the dancers come around to do their show. I think generally the side room is more of loud restaurant, but it gets amped up when the dancers come through...if that makes sense

Somewhere between lively pub and concert.

Earplugs are terrific for it. You can still hear the hard shoe dancing and the music, but it doesn’t hurt.


I would do a weekend brunch, personally. Noon on a Sunday isn’t as raucous as dinner time, and they still have music and dancing.

It seems to dependon the band playing. You can also be off in one of the corners and its not as loud.
I would never consider it concert loud. It is a lot of fun.

I hadn't even thought of this. Good idea, thank you.

They also have a great outdoor patio if inside is too loud : )

My son is the same way and he HATED Raglan. I would say it is between loud pub and local concert. The kicker for him was when the dancers go around and dance on little wood stages - he just stared at me like 'why have you done this to me?' LOL

It's way, way too loud for me. The patio is ok, though. Still loud, but you can carry on a conversation.

Lively pub loud for my sight but I'm from Manhattan where life is loud in general.

LOUD. So loud you can't carry on a conversation when the music is playing. Even if you shout. I'd skip it.

Raglan at lunch is pretty low-key... it's a great place so surely worth a visit!
