Great venue. It is small and intimate (as far as venues go). Great sound quality. Even with a sold out show it didnt feel overcrowded. The only downfall was the was they had the merch tables set up, the kines tended to run into each other, making it difficult to figure out where to queue.

What an amazing venue, and a memorable night! I never had an easier access to a live concert venue like the Sinclair. I parked about 15 minutes away in Cambridge and had a lovely walk there, no waiting in line, scanned my ticket and minutes after I was in the front row. I came by for a post-rock evening with Glacier (no happy music!) and Pelican. Epic music, a very pleasant environment even though it was crowded and in the middle of summer. I definitely recommend this place! Lots of dinning options open until late in the area compliment this as an amazing Cambridge experience.

Awesome venue. Intimate setting with a cool balcony that ends at about 3 row maybe 10 ft above the stage. Really cool set up. Brick floors, don't get as sticky as straight concrete. Drink access directly to stage left. No barricade so you can get right up to the stage. Staff was solid, knew their stuff and had no mistakes on a busy Saturday night. Can't wait to go back.

Love the space. Friendly and properly staffed. However...There is a sound coming from that HVAC system that is very loud and annoying. So much so that the performer made a comment about hearing "alien" sounds between songs. I hope this problem gets addressed.

They literally pat you down old school and even looked in people's wallets. Like what weapon fits in a billfold? The ceiling is absolutely disgusting, its literally coated in a thick layer of grossness. I can't imagine the duct work😱. However the venue itself is super adorable and fun. The staff is kind just a Lil overboard.
