We went to see Charley Crockett at the Lincoln Theater and had the best time EVER! From the time we walked in the door everyone we came in contact with, staff and patrons, were the greatest people. We took our 8 year old to the show and it was the perfect atmosphere for all of us to have a good time. We loved that the Lincoln Theater offers that intimate feeling of seeing a band up close and personal. Tickets were extremely affordable, which is a nice surprise. We will keep our eyes open for more concerts and be back again. Fyi Charley Crockett and Ester Rose were were AMAZING to see in concert.We had an all around wonderful time!!

I love LT. Such a quaint venue so see great bands. A decent assortment of beverages and really cool staff behind the bar. Always a great time to be had there.Id love to see pictures of how it looked back in the day. I bet it was a great place to see a flick.

Had a great view. People were nice, staff was friendly. Lots of free parking next to venue. I will come back here again for a show.

We had an awesome time at the American Aquarium concert! The staff was very friendly, despite the stress of a sold out house. The wait time for my friends at the bar was nearly nonexistent; the bartenders were efficient and polite. We did stand for the whole show and half of the opener, there are very few stools available on the balcony level. We have been to concerts here before, so we knew about the high likelihood of not having a seat. Overall an awesome venue, definitely worth checking out!

Zoso never disappoints. Absolutely the best Led Zeppelin cover band on earth!

Awesome venue, great sound and really nice to watch very close the performance! Highly recommend it!!!

I love this venue. Parking garage across the street. Good restaurants on the next block. Summer parties. I sat next to Thurston Moore at the bar once who was just there chillin. Wide range of entertainment here.

Nice little spot for a concert. Balcony seating is perpendicular to the stage so its a little hard to see around the people in front of you unless you stick your neck out and then the people behind you have to stick or even further. But the extra bathrooms and bar were worth the extra balcony cost for the show I saw.

Went to see Alex Wong and Delta Rae tonight. Fantastic show!!! Come here with two friends using mobility devices. The staff and crowd were great at helping us find good seats towards the front!!!

I was recently in a car accident that has left my disabled at the moment. We brought tickets for the Eric Nam concert prior to the accident. I was truly worried about the fact I cant stand for long and are wearing braces on my hands, ankle, and walking with a cane. I arrived at 5:30 and ended up Midway down a truly long line (concert sold out and doesnt open until 7). I emailed the venue earlier in the week about being disabled and needing a seat. I emailed again once here and Danny called me and brought a stool for me to seat on until they open. Also for me to have during the concert. I am incredibly grateful! Great job for making my experience already great!

Small club. Great place for an intimate show!There is a dance floor that takes up about half the room, then there are two tiered areas, both of which provide great views. There is also an upstairs balcony but it was closed when we went there for the show. Seating is extremely limited. In fact, dont plan on sitting...Its a bare-bones place, dont expect to much from the amenities and you wont be disappointed.Ill definitely go back for more shows.

Small enough to be intimate, big enough for amazing bands. Their beer selection is surprising! The staff was warm and courteous. Ive been here before and Ill definitely be here again.

Great venue! Been there multiple times and Ive loved every visit.

Great venue in downtown Raleigh. Old theater with good views from anywhere. Usually has the up & coming bands that are popular & fun to see.

Beres Hammond is always my reason for coming faithfully. It gets super hot due to the time of year and people. I dont think drinking helps but I always have a great time. Ive experienced other artists there and still enjoyed myself.

Great staff. Great bands. Great drinks. Lots of local beers and just overall great beer selection. I try to go every time Im in the area.

Went for an event recently. First time there and it was fun. The bathroom was horrible but I guess you could chalk it up to a bad night.

The staff here is great and very accommodating for our concert, but the building is really run down - the ceiling tiles are falling down and the insulation behind them is showing. Random debris litter the hallways - brooms, stacks of supplies, bags, etc. But they know how to put on a concert ! Its hard not to wonder, however, how long theyll be able to keep it up before the whole place just falls apart.

The Lincoln is a gritty fun place to hear music and see shows. The bar is easy to get to and the staff is nice. Dont expect fancy tables and clean floors. This place is for hardcore fun.

Fun venue. Music is loud, but that is why you come here! Excellent sound system and engineers... solid bass / subs.

You get very little arguments if you peg this music venue the best in Raleigh. Its small and intimate stage really accentuates the kind of vibe that an usual crowd there seeks.

Great place to see a show. Relative small. No bad places to stand. Beer was a bit pricey.

Love attending concerts here. Squirrel Nut Zippers, Steep Canyon Rangers are some of my favorites. Buy tickets early if you want a seat in the balcony. We usually are happy to stand along the rail on the lower level.

Have only seen one show here but it was a great time! Nice setting, decently priced drinks, and great acoustics.

From the outside it sure doesnt seem like much, and its not flashy on the inside. However, there are TONS of great sightlines and the sound was crystal clear. A packed club didnt feel uncomfortable, and theres limited seating (with a great view) upstairs.

Last Wednesdays concert could have been outstanding but the first two concerts music was overwhelmingly loud over any possible understanding of the vocals. Then, ALL musicians stood in the aisle during ALL the performances & laughed & made such a ruckus it was disturbing. Obviously the centers management was absent. What an insult to their fellow musicians who were on the stage!

I saw Tank & da Bangas and Adia Victoria! It was amazzzzzinggggg! Small but sufficient venue!

Nice music venue in downtown Raleigh. Small enough that everyone can see and hear well. Large enough to draw quality talent.

The place has strong character, but is a dump. No security, smoke as you like. Still, would go back for the right bands.

4 nights of Big Something would justify 5 stars anywhere in my opinion... lol. Sound was amazing!

Nice small venue. Bartenders are nice and fast. The sound is fantastic.

Great place to see live music! Low frills. Room to dance, not many seated areas. Parking nearby.

Great venue for local artists. Creative evemts with a wide range of appeal. Kinda small but makes events mpre intimate

Great club. Great folks. Just make sure you park where youre supposed to park (I got a $20 parking ticket for parking on club property).

I loved being on the middle tier. We wanted to be back a little and still see. Great view!

Went to see Tiffany Young. Small yet cozy and popular show room. Features a full bar and balcony.

Drove about 3-4 hours to see Sullivan King, Grabbitz, Lick, and Swarm! They absolutely smashed it! Best show ive seen in a WHILE. Sound system was amazing, as was the actual venue. Loved the set up, got free water, 10/10

I always love catching a show at this local venue. Pretty good acoustics, stadium style standing room with a balcony and great beer selection. Try a Crank Arm Wet Road! Loca and deliciousl!

This venue makes for great, personal shows. My only complaint is that bigger artists tend to draw big crowds, and it can get pretty cramped. Its not too bad though, as there are two floors. If the downstairs gets full, theres usually room in the balcony to spread out.

Great venue for a show, bar is reasonably priced. Not a bad view in the place

Ive seen so many Artists here! Its 1 of my favorite places 2 go 2! Its just so intimate!

The theatre was a bit run down. Went there to check out a show. The bathrooms were really gross and it didn’t seem like the heat was working.

Its a small venue but its cool. The staff was cool, including security

A bit rough around the edges but a great place to see a show. It helps when you can sing and play like JST!

Great place to catch a concert

I love this theatre! I’ve been to and worked a couple events here! The staff is great and the drinks are strong!

Great, safe venue. Enjoyed Raleigh Day founded by Rome Jeter. 9-19-19

Awesome shows, perfect size, great location! Keep up the good work guys!

Great atmosphere, easy parking and awesome acoustics. A soundman has to be really bad at his job if the sound is not at least good. Just saw Eric Gales tear the place down...metaphoricaly speaking now. The place is still up and running.

Usually a great place to see artist perform. These last couple of times my friends and I have been to this establishment we and others have been harassed by the same security guard with missing teeth. Then to have the a portly security guard come to apologize on his behalf. Never going back....

Great little place to see a concert. Good sound system and plenty of parking nearby. Prices were very reasonable for the show.

Nice staff, great shows & space for all kinds of activities

Intimate. Great music. Easily accessible parking

Loved it! Its amazing! Very nice and great show with Rick Springfield!!

Loved the small intimate setting. I was sitting in front row.

Cool venue! Small but you can get right up to the stage. The lighting could be better, not a fan of the LED colored lights and the outside could use some updating but overall, thats my only real complaint.

Ive seen some great shows in this venue. Its a bit dirty and needs some renovations but thats part of its charm. Come by and support your local music scene.

Great music venue!! Great sound and lots of great bands !

Great venue, parking in garage across street and at lot on corner.

Saw Allen Stone, small venue which felt like we all knew each other. Wonderful time at this intimate event.

Great venue. Bartenders very quick and attentive.

Really cool place to visit, few good places to grab a bite to eat around it

Favorite music venue in Raleigh! Really wish they could get some of the Live Nation artists away from the Ritz, cuz the Ritz is hands down the worst venue in Raleigh!

It was a great small venue to see a fabulous concert!

It was a cool venue. Pay to go upstairs for seating.

Really good venue size-wise; upstairs and downstairs standing options; not really any bad spots, unless you get trapped behind someone tall; very friendly staff and nice beer selection!

Hard a great time at the tech n9ne concert! Sound quality was quite good. Good beer selection, no complaints

Big Fun at Big Something! Thanks yall~

The concert was all the way live. The stage is huge. There were multiple beers to choose from. The restrooms are located upstairs. There is standing room only no seats unless you sit on the stairs.

Love this little place. Great for local jams or the occasional national act. Great view from everywhere.

The atmosphere was great and it was a full buffet in the VIP! Bro Rabb & Jazzy Jeff rocker it!

Awesome theater operated by great people!

The Ladies room attendant is the nicest lady in the world.

Not a bad seat in the house, cheap drinks!

I really like Lincoln Theatre. Nice, small venue with (mostly) reasonable drink prices

Caught a concert and film screening at the Lincoln Theatre and love its whole vibe. Great on both fronts, with cheap beer prices and plenty of seating and standing room. The lobby area is great for taking a break without losing out on the show.

The Magnificent DJ Jazzy Jeff was truly Magnificent I had great experience at the Lincoln Theater Honestly

Had a great time seeing Stephan Marley, good sized place not too big or small

Pretty good place to catch live music. Sound is excellent.

Just had the best. Experience best concert ever. Ive been to so many. This was the best venue. Dwayne the owner helped my disabled sister get the best accommodations and seating ever. Flag Ship and Blue October gave the best intimate concert Ive ever been to. The team who organized it was so professional. So kind and supportive to our needs. My disabled sister contacted them a head of time. This venue rolled out the red carpet. We enjoyed our time with the best concert ever. In full comfort and understanding. 5 start to you all. Thank you for the priceless memories. See you soon. God bless you.

Had a great time listening to song writers tonite .

Always a great place to see Live Music!!

Its a small venue which was fine for the concert I attended but wouldve been awful for anything larger. You will smell weed, thats normal, just lean in to it.

Great time there but theater is really small

Had an awesome time watching Khraungbin in December 2018! Great venue!

Super fun but small crowds at times

Great Show, Strange Lady was Incredible.

My 17 yr old and his GF went to see Bad Suns there. They said it was a good concert. I went into the venue while concert was still going on and the people were very friendly and helpful. Ok location but anyone under 18 has to pay $2 more at the venue which I dont understand and nobody ever answers the phone and voicemail is always full. Please clean out your messages.

My girlfriend and I went to the Grateful Ball last night . I’m handicapped and have trouble standing for an extended time. We mentioned that to management they treated us like royalty got us stools to sit on so I could enjoy the show. Special shout out to the woman who helps out in the ladies restroom thank you for all you do

Great, small concert venue.

The best venue in NC.

Small venue, but clean and had friendly staff, enjoyed the show.

This was my 5th show at the Lincoln- all to see Mothers Finest!

Great place to go and see local and national recording artists

Great little place for hanging out and listening to some music from our local bands and upcoming talent

Wonderful venue! I visited a year ago for a Melanie Martinez concert with Handsome Ghost opening for her. The sound system is pretty awesome for how small the place is and the bass was out of this world. I also saw Unlike Pluto, Pegboard Nerds, and Seven Lions here and oh. my. God. It was phenomenal! If you can purchase tickets early and theyre pretty inexpensive for the groups they get booked.

Nothing pretentious about this place. Wear shoes and prepare for great music.

Best damn venue in Raleigh!

Neat small dance hall / concert venue. You can get into the crush on the floor or look for stools back closer to the bar in the back. Decent sound.

Saw Blue October there. Older venue, but good sound, comfortable even at 700 people. Friendly Staff. Ill be back!! Thanks!
