Went to the soft opening today. It’s for Boosters only on Madison just off Woodward. New concept bar with upscale bar food. Met the chef and manager. Food was outstanding. Really great idea with excellent execution. Not sure what level of booster can go on gameday. No membership fee. Just be a Booster. They are still working on what level you need to be. Grand opening soon. Especially great for out of towners looking for an option to a traditional tailgate.
This will be one of the best membership and fund-raising ideas in Booster history. I too, was there Thursday. Really well done. Great design and decor with photos of iconic FSU grads in a very nice club atmosphere on Madison Street. Major donors have and will pay for the privilage of being Founding Members. The Founding Memberships more than cover the cost of creating 51 on Madison.
But, 51 Madison will soon be THE amenity for higher level Boosters who support the program. Boosters will have a superb place to take guests when they are in Tallahassee. Any guest will be impressed.
Unlike the Champions Club, there is no cost to join and you are allowed to bring guests. But you have to be a booster. The managers have flexibility to lower the booster contribution level for entry depending on the demand...and can even have special days where anyone can go in order to encourage new booster membership. If the boosters want to open the venue to everyone for those time periods where it's slow in Tallahassee, they have total flexibility to do that.
It's a great...but not large...venue. There is an inside bar and a outside patio...all with a roof over your head. You are surrounded by other venues...like Madison Social...where you can see all the other FSU fans having a good time. So although it is "private" for boosters, it has a very open view of the entire College Town scene.
Food is definitely a focus of this venue, and this place can be particularly useful for out of town boosters that are unable to make tailgating plans.
Its between Township and Tin Lizzies
