This theater is small and cute, with a stellar location downtown. Love the fact that there is an uncrowded bar, and you can take drinks to your seat (very rare!). Would have given it 4-5 stars, except there was ZERO leg room in our seats. I am 5'7" and there was nowhere to put my legs. I had a bruise on my knee the next day from my legs hitting the chair in front. My husband was only able to sit in his seat with his legs in the aisle. No way you could get out without making the entire aisle leave their seats. Made the whole experience unenjoyable. Truly disappointing.

This restored theater is very nice. We watch Peter Pan in November 2014 from seats in the balcony. View was good for the entire stage. Sound was good for those actors that had microphones or projected well, but not for those without a microphone. The sound of the music was great. The seats were comfortable, but the leg room is limited. Overview all a very good experience.

Loved the inside and entertainment. They sell ETOH and non ETOH beverages on the newly remodeled second floor. The downtown view is cool!

Wonderfully restored old theater. Great location to see comedy or music. They also play movies, sporting events, plays, etc. Nice that they serve drinks that aren't to over priced.

Historic theater renovated to classic standards. Well worth the visit for any event you choose while in the area. Easy access in downtown Spokane.

The beauty and craftsmanship of the building and the layout of the stage, theater and entry/exits are functional and artsy. It is a "classy" place that speaks of the charm and pride of the time in which it was built. Spokane residents are rightly proud of one of their favorite sons, Bing Crosby who was also one of the world's most famous singer/actor/celebrity.

We love to attend shows at the Bing. It's named after Bing Crosby, one of Spokane's favorite sons! The theater boasts painstaking attention to it's original glory. A must-see when in Spokane!

This theatre is absolutely beautiful. It won't make any difference who you go see performing, the acoustics are fantastic. The theatre is just big enough so you don't feel packed in, but small enough so that no matter where you sit, you almost feel you are a private audience. If you want to have a better experience, include dinner at one of many fine restaurants within walking distance before or after the show. You won't be disappointed.

If there's something you'd like to see, and its at the Bing, GO! The venue is ornate and petite and it has a very special charm to it. Before anything even starts, it feels like a special night. Take your sweetheart to dinner at the Davenport, then catch a show at the Bing.

This is one of the best theaters that I have ever been in. It is very small but that makes it what it is. It is so beautiful and brings back memories of theaters that I was in in my childhood. It does need to upgrade its seats for they are getting old and uncomfortable.

Pleasantly surprised. Went to a comedy show and found the seating, lighting and deco every delightful. Sound was good as well.

I have been visiting here since it was the Met, always a refreshing pleasure. I guess even before that I saw a few Movies when it was the State Theater, but it wasn't quite the same then.Comfortable seating and every seat has a good view for what always seems to be an up-close and personal performance. Plenty of parking nearby to the South a block or so and now there is a small Wine Bar upstairs for a pre show sip, or take it to your seat with you. Clean Restrooms, pleasant Staff and quiet surroundings. Stage is small, which is fitting for the Solo Performances I have seen, Tommy Emanuel, David Lanz, and others. (sadly Andy McKee was a no show but we had fun with the opener Christopher so it was still a good experience. I also enjoy not having to walk a quarter of a mile from the front door to my seat, as often seems to happen at the Coliseum. Prices are reasonable for the quality of Performers I have seen.
