Radio Bean is Burlington’s beloved coffeehouse by day and a lively live music venue by night. Nestled at 8 N. Winooski Ave, this intimate space seats around 85–87 guests, offering up-close sightlines and a warm, communal atmosphere. Part of a cluster of creative spaces that include Light Club Lamp and Duende, Radio Bean has a storied history of nurturing artists who go on to regional and national stages, including Grace Potter, Anaïs Mitchell, and Rubblebucket. Whether you're stopping by for a show or a soundtrack of coffeehouse ambiance, the venue delivers a welcoming, no-fuss experience.

Parking is convenient with two hours of free parking in the Downtown Burlington Garage via ParkMobile, plus other downtown options. The venue is well-served by Burlington's GMT public transit, with proximity to North Winooski Ave and the Downtown Transit Center routes. For visitors planning a stay, the nearby Hilton Garden Inn Burlington Downtown and Hotel Vermont offer easy walking access to the venue.

Radio Bean continues to host a diverse lineup—from Honky Tonk Tuesday to indie and experimental performances—making it a go-to spot for discovering fresh soundscapes in a responsible, friendly setting. While the venue remains operational, note that in January 2026 the owner announced a search for new ownership due to financial challenges. Regardless, fans can expect consistent programming, a cozy atmosphere, and a chance to secure seats or spots for intimate performances.
