Capital Ale House

If you like cocky waiters and unimaginative entrees - this is the place for you. Of course, their specialty is beer,and they do have a lovely selection, but expect to be served boring food with a know-it-all attitude from the wait staff.  With better choices in town, I wouldn't bother to go there again.

I have been to Capital Ale House multiple times for beer ( they have a very impressive and extensive beer selection). However, tonight was the first time I actually went for dinner. It was a disappointment. We were a party of six, and we waited over an hour for our main courses. When we finally got them, all of our fries were cold (in which they compensated by bringing us all fresh plates of hot fries almost immediately... why not just give us hot fries to begin with?). We then ordered desert which took another 20+ minutes to retrieve.
They may have great beer (which I WILL return for)... but I would not recommend going to them for anything but.

I'm a huge fan of Capital Ale House. Excellent beer selection, and unlike Callie's before it, they have good quality food as well. Definitely put your hands on the Black Bean Burger on $2 burger night (Monday), and other daily specials. You get more bang for your buck. Only reason it's not 5 stars is because their beer can be a bit ridiculously priced.  You're probably better off getting a growler and refilling it if you're just coming for beer.
