The Sinclair - Cambridge

I've visited this restaurant multiple times, but my most recent experience was fantastic! The staff, both at the bar and merchandise table, were incredibly friendly. The prices for drinks were average for the area. The venue is cozy and intimate due to its smaller size. I'm looking forward to attending more shows there in the future!

Cool Warm Club was a great concert venue with a nice atmosphere. We didn't try the food, but there was limited seating upstairs for those who needed it. The event we went to was general admission with standing room only. Donny Benet put on a great show! Thank you.

I have not eaten at this restaurant, so I cannot provide a review of the food. I have visited this venue a few times in the past for concerts, more than five years ago. The venue itself is cozy and clean, with decent sound quality. The bartender was fantastic, very friendly and upbeat. These factors are the reasons why I am giving it 2 stars. However, the other staff members were incredibly unfriendly and unwelcoming. Despite the website stating they have a seasonal coat check, it was closed on a chilly, rainy day. When we politely asked about it, we were met with a rude response. Additionally, the staff was pushy in urging us to leave the stage area immediately after the show ended. Overall, while the bartender and venue were good, the interactions with staff were disappointing. We will only return if it is for a show by one of our favorite artists, as we feel we have no other choice.

I came here to see my cousins band play. I thought it was a pretty nice venue with a main area in front of the stage and then a mezzanine around three of the 4 sides, so you could go to different areas for different vibes. There are three bars, all with a water station. One is in the main lobby area, another to the side on the floor in front of the stage, and one on the mezzanine. The bathrooms were also very clean and there was one in the lobby area, and one on the mezzanine.

I worked for a music venue for quite some time, so I know how venues tend to absorb the character of the current show therefore are not fully responsible for the vibe of the night. We went to see Tinariwen last night (a show we've been looking forward to for months) it was such a pleasant experience. Tinariwen is an iconic group. The fans were respectful kind. The energy of the venue was buzzing with happiness celebration. It would've been a great show even if it were in a empty parking lot. The Sinclair absorbed all of that good energy, but can't take credit for Tinariwen's vibe. HOWEVER, it's clear that underneath all of that good stuff, The Sinclair is still just a solid venue. Yes, the show would've been great if it were in a parking lot, but it was spectacular because it was at The Sinclair. Beautiful entrance marquee Talented sound techs Clean bathrooms LGBTQ respectful Friendly bartenders Variety of choices at the bar Multiple different levels for different vantage points THANK you for bringing Tinariwen to Boston. I was able to witness something truly remarkable because of The Sinclair. I won't forget it.
