Columbia City Theater

Columbia City Theater is a hidden gem with an incredible atmosphere that transports you the moment you walk in. The vintage charm, rich woodwork, and intimate lighting create a warm, nostalgic vibe that’s perfect for live music or special events. The acoustics are excellent, and the venue strikes a perfect balance between cozy and iconic. A true Seattle treasure for music lovers.

Awesome little venue and bar. Located near great restaurants to eat at before a show. Bar up front is nice, but the theater for shows is great. Has a small bar in the theater, and offers raised platform, or a lower level to get up close. There are a couple of benches for sitting, bit it's all standing. We arrived about an hour early and were able to secure spots right at the front of the stage. Also a bathroom right off to the right, which is nice. Super easy to go and get a drink and come back, and your spot will still be there.

Columbia City Theater is a quality spot to see a show. It's not too far off from the Light Rail, there's a fun small brewery nearby, and they have their own bar. The stage is raised to a great level that allows you to see from most areas in the theater, and it's got two tiers for standing room. People working the show have always been super nice letting people in and as people are exiting. I feel like this is a spot that typically has artists that are quality music, but not super popular, so you get a pretty intimate show that has plenty of room for not feeling like a sardine during a show. On the downside, if it's an all ages show, you have to get your drinks from the bar that's not in view of the stage, but you can still kind of hear the music.

I've seen a few shows here and I love the intimate venue. Audio is consistently good, it's attached to a whiskey bar so drinks are stellar, and it's great to have this venue for smaller shows.

What a great little venue. The house technical staff are on point - excellent lighting and sound. I've seen a few bands here and attended a private event. Love the wooden floor for dancing. Bartenders are excellent and the atmosphere is cozy.

Went to our first show here this weekend and it was amazing. The sound, atmosphere, people. All combined to make an unforgettable experience! Look up calendar and pick an event to see sometime, they a have nights for all the fancies!

What a cool little venue, sitting inside the back of a whiskey bar - which is already a win win. Prices are pretty good, and the vibes are always chill. They even have a little bar inside of the venue, its almost like a speakeasy. Would definitely recommend going to see a show here if you get a chance!

This was a quaint little theatre! Every seat is a good seat! The show was AWESOME! Stopped Screw Disney after Dark was a great date night! The bartender was fast and mixed his drinks strong! Made for a great night out with friends! Cool old theatre building!
