Coach House Concert Hall Review

Watched Al Di Meola here a few days ago. Sound system is good but the AC is on full blast so bring a sweater. Food is below average but you go there for the music anyway so wouldn t fuss over it.

Where else can you go to a great concert for $30! Free parking

Intimate showroom great venue good food here the potatoes skins are really good I enjoyed the mozzarella sticks

Dokken rocked, liz was great, always there when we needed a drink

My favorite small venue...they keep a terrific calendar!

Specializes in Legacy axe, or tributes to Legacy Acts. It's a great atmosphere, but the Acoustics aren't terrific.

I really want to like this place but it's just too old and not maintained. Cleanliness is very poor and quality of food and drink is almost inedible. Small venue makes for great concert but if you have to worry about the roof caving in , well not desirable. I may come back simply for a show I absolutely want to see, but I wont eat or drink.

The food here is awful and very overpriced for what you get. So are their drinks! The service is really slow and it needs a complete remodel! It's dingy and dirty feeling but SOMEHOW they still get really good acts to come in.

Serving staff the best. Tip them good they deserve it!

We've seen a few artists and tributes here the last few years. Food is ok, great place to see music

Loved the performance...very upset with Coach House that we were not warned before charging us 5.00 each for a small bottle of water (which we would have declined had the server stated its cost per bottle). Never again...bring your own water!

That's a great place for good shows at affordable ticket prices. Decent food too.

After a night of sleep I had some time to think about my experience at the Coach House.

First the food is god awful, the prices are sky high, and the interior needs a complete rebuild. Based off that I alone I would have given these guys 1 star. My beer was also warm and cost me $$$.

The saving grace of this venue is the sound. It's almost as if the electric guitar was meant to be heard on these speakers. It's a lot louder than it needs to be for a venue of this size so make sure to bring some heavy duty earplugs. The seating is rows of dinner tables, and what's cool is you get to watch a very intimate performance with the artist.

I enjoyed the musical portion but everything else was crap. Just be prepared to spend the big bucks here.

Great place for a show, needs at least a small dance floor though.

Nice place. Fun. Good food. I saw Y & T. Flew just to see them. Or was awesome.

This is a great venue and the staff was excellent.. recommend this place for any show

The venue is huge and I love seeing the pictures of all the acts who have performed there hung up on the walls. I will definitely be going there again!

Amber, is a awesome waitress. Music is fabulous. Live here for my entertainment.

I 've alway's had a great time there thru the last 25 year's. It's been a few year's since I've been back. Recentley my mother invited me to join her and some female's. I was speaking to the male at the door expressing my feeling's of hesitation about going in...... A long grey hair older male walked out with my mother. She told me I could only come in if I behaved , and was nice to her. She (Edie Wilson)-Mom- created a situation I had to stand up for. The same man said she(I) could not come in. My mother and him walked back inside. I walked up to the signal light next to the freeway and danced. Other than that experience it yourself.....Kim Summers

Beware of the "free" refills that aren't so free. Great place for a dinner and show, but long waits from the server and miss leading price on drink refills.

It's always a good time at the coach house in San Juan Capistrano. Food is okay, the service is exceptional very attentive. They have a variety of performers.

I love this place!! Great venue and excellent food!

Great music, that's about it, the food is mediocre at best the drinks are over priced, it's in need of new carpeting. The seating is cramped and the place stinks.

For this particular show, they had long tables set up, a la oktoberfest bier hall. It was hugely disappointing that it wasn't a real general admission, where we could dance in front of the stage like we did in the old days. It wasn't like this when I had been there before. I hope it's not like this all the time now. It really drained a lot of energy out of the room.

Yeah, a low energy X show. What?

Under poured way over priced rude workers I was asked to leave because I knocked over a chair..... I want my 25 dollars back

Fairly small venue, easy to get to, lots of great acts - the food is expensive and no so great though.

Really fun place to see live music...and the food is yummy, too!!

Had a great time! Good food great for. Opener was Brooke Ramel very good. Phil Vasar was incredible. He gets better every year!!!!

Great venue and my steak was great too. Beer menu limited and kinda pricy but ive come to expect that at most venues.

Saw Burton Cummings there....amazing !!! Loved it so much my wife and I got tickets to Led Zepagain and Berlin !!! Sweeet venue and delicious food....

Great little concert venue! Get dinner reservations before. It guarantees a seat before the concert crowd grabs all the spots.

Always a great time, great sound good food, the best in music entertainment!

This is a terrific and intimate venue. All seats are great seats. The best views of the stage are at the tables serving dinner (make a reservation). The veggie cheese skins, potato skins, and mushrooms are good.

food sucked, music was great but poor waitress service

Great place to see a show! Ticket prices are good and food and drinks also reasonably priced. All seating is very good since it is a small venue. Wouldn't compare it to other venues that are mostly GA (ie Belly Up and Observatory) where you have to fight your was to the front for a good view..... why do the tallest people have to stand in front? Lol. Anyway, I highly recommend Coach House as one of the best local concert
Venues in OC!

Love the Coach House. My steak was prepared perfectly and then Wynonna KILLED IT. What a beautiful lady and Great performer.

The coach house gets by. They don't appreciate their guest or those playing for their guest. The carpet is torn or taped , the food is from a happy meal at Mac Donald's. Why would they care about their reputation! They make their overhead and more. Just a dirty lack luster venue. Been there-won't go back.

Decent seating - horrid food at a huge price!
Ordered the bar-b-que chicken and beans. It was a plain old chicken breast - who knows how it was really cooked - smothered with a not-so-good bar-b-que sauce. The beans were just Heinz beans from a can! And the vegetables had that horrid freezer burn taste! Couldn't even finish the veggies. Seriously? Can't even give fresh vegetables? Gordon Ramsey needs to visit there! We spent $45 for two very unappealing dinners.
The only thing to save the day was a table close to the stage - which is why we went in the first place.

Great food great music and great atmosphere. Picture is of my 2 best friends from grade school. Had a small reunion. Haven't seen each other since high school graduation. Started off our get together at the coach house over great steaks cold beer and a great band(which i hadn't seen since high school) Dokken.

Awesome place to see shows, have dinner and drinks. Come here to see Ozomatli every time, unbelievable performance!

Kindly packed. But what else would you expect with Ted Nugent!

Love the service, friendly and helpful. Last week show was excellent, Las Vegas quality.

Erik Masek was special! We will miss you...good luck in Detroit!

Seating is very tight especially if you are eating dinner. No leg room to rock and roll.

I saw Judy Collins it was perfect! Small venue and very personal wherever you sit.
Food and drink reasonably priced. Looking forward to my next concert there!

The Coach House. It's the kind of place that has great seating wherever you sit . There's a bar and food. It's a "small venue" and the audience and performers get maximum enjoyment. I've been there many times and always come away very satisfied with the place. A great place to see your favorite performers.

If you enjoy your concerts sitting down the entire time with no choice to get up and dance, this is for you!

Diner show with reasonable prices. Puddles the clown, what a voice!

Old place with an odd layout, but it's a pretty cool, small venue to see bands. The wait staff seems to have gotten larger & better, but you can still wait awhile for a beer. They lose a review star for their food... seems like it shouldn't be that hard to improve a little... especially with small, $30 steaks...

Go for the music if your favorite band is playing... But plan on eating crummy food, or sitting far from stage. The space is cozy, stage is close and the beer is cold.

Great place to spend the evening see a show have a drink eat some great food and get quality service!

Great time , cool little venue for locals to see up n coming as well as the greats.

what an awesome venue to see a concert my first experience and it was Ted Nugent what a blast, will definitely be coming back there soon.

Peter Noone & Herman's Hermits show last night was full of energy, humor & music! Lots of good memories! Will definitely watch his schedule for next time around, thank you Peter

I enjoyed the music, but not the OLD dated venue. I am glad that I had dinner elsewhere. The menu was overpriced for low quality food. The women's RR did not have seat covers or enough stalls. I will not be returning.

Great entertainment and dinner, really enjoyed myself, my 83 year old Mother was up dancing to the Bee Here's Gold!

Saw Three Dog Night there. Food is ok. Too crowded. Wish they'd of provided a dance area.

Spare yourself the disappointment, DUMP, OVERPRICED, RUN DOWN, HORRIBLE FOOD........ The only thing that is getting them decent reviews is the artists.

It's a great venue for live music. Dinner, not so much. Potato Skins are ok, but full dinners leave a bit to be desired.
