Garcia’s at The Capitol Theatre

In partnership with the family of Jerry Garcia, The Capitol Theatre christened its "lobby bar" as Garcia’s in honor of the late Grateful Dead guitarist and singer, who counted the Port Chester, N.Y., rock palace among his favorite venues in the country. Garcia’s, a spacious bar and event space of its own, is complete with a stage, vaulted skylights, festoon lights and in-house sound and lighting. Surrounding the black leather banquettes are exposed brick walls highlighted by instruments and rare rock photos.
