Finish dinner 30+ minutes before showtime. Most restaurants offer pre-theater menus.
Highly recommended, especially for evening performances. Book ahead to avoid disappointment.
Most listed restaurants are within 5-10 minutes walk. Factor in extra time during busy hours.

We enjoyed a live concert here, Sara Evans and her band were great. Seats were comfortable, concessions including a bar were available. The atmosphere was festive, acoustics were good and the decor was throwback to 50's. This is a classic and well maintained theater in a thriving retail environment.
On Friday, 6/6, I attended Dionela’s Grace Tour concert with three others. We sat in the mezzanine (balcony) section, seats A-31 to A-34, and overall, we really liked our view. As a drummer with moderate audiovisual experience (mostly from church settings), I’d say the trade-off for slightly cheaper balcony seats was a less immersive auditory experience. While the view was great, I don’t believe I had the ideal listening environment compared to the floor level. I’m quite confident this is due to venue acoustics, not any fault of Dionela’s sound team. Seat comfort was decent for nearly three hours of sitting. Armrests were small, though not unexpected for a historic venue. Cleanliness was a plus — restrooms on both floors were well-kept (at least within the first 30 minutes after doors opened). I bought my tickets online, so I can’t speak to the box office experience. Food and drink options were limited. Also worth noting: there’s no dedicated theater parking, but plenty of nearby options within walking distance.
It is a really nice theater. I enjoyed all the events I attended at this theater.
I absolutely love this music venue!! Definitely go see your favorite band play here!
Small bu cozy! Nice to see your favorite artist very close! 😊👍
