Capital Ale House

Nice selection of beers and wines , friendly and attentive staff , good variety of food to choose from, warm pleasant atmosphere , nice bar area. Will definitely go again when in the area.

Years ago Cap Ale offered an Asian burger that was out of this world. Since they discontinued it, I have yet to find something on their food menu that wows me as much, but the drinks are delicious!

Features 80 drafts , and over 250 exceptional beers in the bottle. Enjoy patio and sidewalk dining, an upstairs lounge with darts and games that overlooks the bar and wood burning fireplaces .

Really good food and beer offerings can't be beat. Love that you can take anything on tap home in a growler .

Although I am here QUITE A BIT, I will not be "checking in". My term as Mayor has ended. So check in here and GET YOUR PRETZLE!

Same mayor for 4 months and he doesn't work there... hmm... Hey, Andy F, can you tell us your three favorite bar tenders? Your favorite weekly specials ? Favorite beer on tap ?

Burgers are fantastic ask for shoestring onion rings

Imbibe Magazine recognized Capital Ale House for being one of the Best Places for beer in the South in their March/April 2011 Southern Issue

Thursday night all you can eat mussels , the gouda and bacon covered ones are the best.

Got burgers for years and just tried the portobello and black bean burgers ....I've been missing out!!!!!

Joanne and Jay are the best!! Belly up to the bar for friendly conversation and knowledgeable suggestions!! :)

Lots of beer choices but not like the Pacific NW.

Love the pretzel and dip sauce !

Best staff ! Best beer !

The giant pretzel with honey mustard is fab!

After that putrid steak salad , I wish I could un-check-in. Manager acknowledged its bad-ness, and did nothing. Run away, and go across the lot to Caturra.

Brownie sundae is delish. Just sayin.

Thursdays $5 off growlers !

The pumpkin cheesecake is to die for!

Cap Ale has gone downhill over the years. Not impressed.

My friends dad works here

If at all possible, try the Palo Santo Maron by Dogfish Head .
