David Lynch

One of the best venues I've ever been to. Great acoustics with a nice sloping floor that allows everyone to see the stage . Great beer selections at the bar .

shifty

Great venue! Wonderful acoustics , your choice of GA/floor or seats for concerts . Friendly and helpful staff . Go early to take advantage of metered parking ($3 vs. $20) have a drink at Garcia 's.

Jim Byrne

Killer place to see a show. Seen The Roots, Dirty Projectors , Regina Spektor and Sleigh Bells so far and each show has been unique and incredible. More people need to come out though! -- The Mayor

Alex Hunter

So happy the Cap is back! Unlike a lot of venues you can see the stage in GA because of the slopped floor. Friendly staff . Easy to get a beer . Old school interior. Garcia’s is cool too!

Marlon

Old theater with removed seats which makes for a nice sloped floor with great sight lines in general admission area. Place has character.

Steven Morano

Historic concert venue . Jerry Garcia 's favorite. Amazing sound system and great acts. Can see from anywhere in the theatre . Great beers and the attached bar Garcia 's is great as well .

Al Bunshaft

Get there early and have a drink in the bar . The chairs (which are upscale folding chairs) in our row, Row L in orchestra, were tipped forward due to the slope of the floor. Not comfortable .

Justin Pacelli

Great venue to see any band. Very clean and updated, beers are a bit on the high side, but overall a great place

Cass Anderson

Best band calendar of any venue in the tri-state area in the fall/winter of 2012. The venue itself is gorgeous with easily accessible amenities .

Sam J.

Amazing venue. Great sound, lights, very easy to get around in and very close to the train station . This is a very easy spot to get to from the city .

Houlihan Lawrence

The Cap is back and better than ever. Easy access off of major highways, 1,835-person capacity and a 6-month renovation has brought this Port Chester theater back to life. The East will rock again!

Ian Isanberg

If you are going to a show that will likely sell out, you may want to get reserved balcony instead of GA floor . The last few Phil Lesh shows were oversold and super crowded on the floor!

Kevin Kolenda

One of the Greatest and Finest music venues in the USA . . . if nit THE Finest & Greatest

Jerry Morano

At the Cap in Oct. 1997, the Rolling Stones and David Bowie put on two, seperate unforgettable shows at the Cap as part of the MTV Live at the 10 Spot concert series. Fabulous!

Mike Kallmeyer

Incredible venue. Most shows are sparsely attended so it feels more intimate than a show in the city . Loge seats are just plastic chairs on the GA area.

Tracy

This was place is awesome!!! Perfect spot to see a show.

Karl With A "K"

Such an amazing theater -- intimate but large. And they have bars on both floors.

Cole Kennedy

Nice theater , but it’s never pleasant taking that return train to Grand Central after a show.

Joe Cheskin

Amazing venue with great sound and a wild light show. A true throwback!

Ron Wechsler

We Heart

Walls breathe rock and roll history, feels like a classic British venue.

Ian Isanberg

Great venue. Wish they had food though, besides $2 candy they bought at Costco.

sarah pumroy

Download the Appetize app and order drinks to your seat!

Sean Roche

Park in the muni parking behind the Mexican grocery store on the main drag.

Dennis Adams

Awesome venue makes for a intimate performance

Caity Prunka

GA floor seats said SRO, but actually was 25 rows of comfy padded folding chairs with cup-holder arm rests.

Anndrea DǐDonato

Late night sets at gracias right next door!! (:

Tamara D

Great venue. Loved it here

Yuri Guanilo

Like Talia said, old people smoking weed!! And they don't share! Lol!

Caity Prunka

Should update the location- the one that is spelled CapitAl has the Warren Haynes show listed tonight. Untruth!

Roger Smith

Applebee's, Buffalo Wild Wings and Panera less than a 5 minute walk away.

Reda Waheed

Get there early bc they made us wait 45 on a line around the block in the freezing cold. When we got inside we realized they had enough employees they just didn't know how to use them productively.

Alex Robertson

Beautiful venue for Lauryn Hill

D C????

Great drinks here

Stephen Blake

Nice venue, good sound, but the security and management staff is the worst I've ever seen. Is this a Miami club? No fun, no dancing , they even made my friend throw away her birthday cake . No joke.

J L

Feels like we're on a flight at this Willie Nelson concert with all these old people standing up to get their circulation back.

Amanda Lupe

Sound is amazing just about everywhere!!

Jon Grundt

It's the best!

Avi Lichtschein

"I love the acoustics in this theater " -Trey Anastasio

Kern Marshall

Also, it's "Capitol" not "Capital" theatre . This is a concert venue , not a form of punishment.

Joy

Be sure there's actually a show!!!

Robert Chapman

Check out the wall paper. Peter Shapiro made it just for the Cap

Dave Raines

YES Concert

sharilyn

It's a gorgeous music venue now.

Evan Feist

Regardless of what you hear, they do have a liquor license and its not crazy city expensive .

Peter P

The Grateful Dead played here
