Great show, comfortable seats, Fab Four take you back, enjoyed being engaged with the best music ever made.

Great show tonight. Very disappointed that there was no vaccine requirement to get in, most people were unmasked because they were allowed to eat and drink which was fine but people were walking around aimlessly unmasked. Some staff were unmasked. They should have made announcements during the evening reminding people mask but they did nothing. Love the crest, but I'm not going back until they get their act together.

Nicely restored, some years ago I presume, and we went to see Leonid and Friends. It's a cozy venue for a concert. We could see and hear everything easily.

I enjoyed the show the other night at the Crest.
I've seen some unique films, movies and even my daughter's HS graduation there.
Is a small venue for a rock show but has always been great. A classy place

The Russian band Leonid and Friends performed here on November 28th. What an excellent show. The theatre is very nice and ornate. Really good sound system.

Super fun! Classic feel with good views all around. Only complaint is that it was very difficult to find our seats in the dark because they aren't marked well. But an usher helped us out when we finally asked him.

If you want a free trip to the grave just ask anybody on staff to see the unfinished basement
they'll tell you to come back two hours after closing with a cane, a thimble, and a jug of bourbon
the cane and the thimble are for you
the bourbon is for your gravedigger
they'll take you down the ramp into a hallway through a door down two flights of stairs through a closet into a locked basement room
if you're still alive by the time the staff finishes the bourbon, you get a ticket to see your next movie for free

My first visit to this wonderful old Art Deco theatre. I'm embarrassed as I've lived 6 blocks from it for 6 years and I've been by it a hundred times at least either on my bike or on Lite Rail.

It was a real honour to see two American music legends in John Hiatt & Jerry Douglas and his brilliant band. Fantastic show They don't come this way too often!

We came here to see the fabulous Bianca Del Rio. The theater itself is beautiful, I love it! The show was epic!

The Crest Theater has turned into a dump! Homeless people sleeping everywhere outside and feeling very unsafe. The theater also has a restaurant which was closed. Also, no lights on the marque gave me the feeling that there was not going to be a show. They open at the last minute. No ice at the concession. The only saving grace was Pat Metheny who was outstanding.

I gave Crest Theater a single Star only because there isn't anything lower. BUYERS BEWARE. In the event of postponement or cancellation, Crest Theater will NOT issue any refund. This is against a very specific California code (B&P 22507). We bought two tickets for the Happy Together Tour 2020 that was delayed from July 2020 to July 2021 and ultimately cancelled. After multiple attempts to get a refund, we ended up empty handed losing $180. Unless you are 100% sure the concert will happen or don't mind risking your hard earned concert money, do NOT buy any tickets from Crest Theater or its partners.

A really cool spot to check out for an eclectic variety of performing artists. Glad that the music is finally back!

I was just there for a sold out show (Last Podcast On The Left). I wanted to love the theater, but man their seats are uncomfortably tiny! It's a worse issue if you're the least bit oversized, but I even saw slender people having a hard time! Being shoulder to shoulder with people there is nearly intolerable. I frankly wouldn't see another show at this theater because of it. There's no point in going to a venue that packs its patrons in like sardines.

"Happy Together" featuring the Turtles & 4 other washed up 60s acts, Monday July 12,2021. I bought tixs for this show & when I got there. No show. No notice. No refund info. Nothing but a darken theater & locked security gates. And I still can't get no satisfaction. Maybe Crest management will read this & do something, I dunno, maybe send an email on the status of the money they intend to refund? But so far - Nothing. I refuse to patronize the Crest any further until they tell me what they intend to do about the Happy Together No-Show.

Incredible place! The acoustics are very loud but a great venue! Wynonna was the fantastic! Pnlybreal downdall is. The bathrooms need a remodel, and the area is a little sketchy but still worth the trip! Go to Rick's Dessert Diner after, they are open until 1am! The parking is a little difficult but worth it!

We purchased tickets with friends to see the Monkees in 2020 just before the pandemic began spending over $400 for 4 tickets. The show was obviously canceled during Covid. We stayed put during Covid and didn't try to contact them due to the shut down. I found out earlier this year (on Instagram) that the Monkees were playing again at the Crest on Sept. 14th 2021. We never heard from the Crest. We sent multiple emails to them about getting our tickets reissued without response. We went down to the Crest, explained the situation to the manager and were told it wasn't their problem and we need to take it up with Ticketmaster.

I have always been a fan of the Crest and was sympathetic to their situation. I just wanted our tickets reissued for the upcoming show and would have continued to support them. Now I have to try to deal with Ticketmaster and will probably need to take legal action. Horrible way to treat longtime supporters of their venue.

Have not received my refund from a cancelled Happy Together concert that was scheduled for July 12,2021. Buyer beware. I followed their email and request a full refund the same day. Crest even sent an email that that the funds would be returned in 14 days. Still waiting. Not Happy!
