The Crocodile

Great local venue. The staff was all super friendly and seemed genuinely interested in making sure everyone had a great time. The sound was great, and the bar was well stocked and fair priced.This venue also has a hotel. We opted to stay the night at the hotel and were definitely not disappointed. Very reasonably priced and a great chic room that was super cozy and comfortable. Check is more like an Air BnB than a hotel which was actually not a bad thing. Your room code gets you in the locked front door. There are two flights of stairs to climb to get to the lobby which is a bar, although it wasn't staffed late when we were there. In the morning was way better quality coffee than a normal hotel would offer (Vita I think).Parking was available all night across the street for $25. I had to move the car to street parking at 0800, but that was only $4 until noon (check out). Parking was available at 1700 when we showed up. Overall a great experience. Wasn't sure what we were getting into, but will definitely come back. It was so nice to just walk upstairs to our room after the show. Don't sleep on this place! Sleep at it... just not on it.

I was able to experience the Croc on a whole new level recently. Although my brother and i grew up going to shows at the original location, I had the pleasure of working with the staff at the Croc to put on a private memorial event in the new space a few weeks ago. It was awesome. From the moment of first contact I knew this was the venue for us. I was looking into other iconic Seattle music venues to host my event, but ended up choosing the Croc because of the great initial communication with the event coordinator. They had an option for anything we wanted. The day of the event was so great. Val, and the staff were so so so wonderful. They literally took so much pressure off my shoulders and took on the sound check and set up with ease. They had anything and everything we were in need of for our non traditional memorial and were able to accommodate and coordinate anything and everything we needed. Although the day itself for me was very sad, it was such an honor to have the Crocodile staff there to help me and my family celebrate my Brother's love of local music in such a special way. Y'all really made it great. Thank you Crocodile!

This is the worst place I have ever come across in Seattle ever. I would never go back to this place and do not recommend to anyone. The bouncers outside are the most power thirsty humans ever with no decency to talk or treat people. I don't know why are they so frustrated with their own jobs or lives. The drinks aren't that great and neither is the service. They host Bollywood parties here often and I guess I am never attending any more in the future. WORST!!

Worst venue for shows. If you have any disability that requires sitting or visibility, you're SOL. They can bring you stools to sit on or wheel you to the corner, but you can't see anything. The stage is low, so GA has limited visibility if you're under 5'-10". Absolutely no seating except in the enclosed bar (no stage view). I usually avoid this venue, and after the Senses Fail show where me and my guest were in pain from standing on concrete with no aid (injuries and disabilities) and no view of the show, I won't ever attend here again. Very disappointed.

Great venue! Great security for the concert we went to! Liked it was smaller because I don't like crowds that much! Bartenders were amazing!

We came here for a comedy show on a Sunday night. There are three separate venues here, and we were in the Crocodile itself. There was a line around the corner and everyone was going through security. I thought the whole process was very efficient. Someone came by to scan your tickets, and then the instructions for the metal detector were clear.Once inside, I thought the size of the place was perfect, not too big, and not too small. There is not a bad seat in the house, however, if you get a seat. This was a general admission show, but I assumed everyone got a seat. Turns out this wasn't the case and there were quite a few people who had to stand. The bar area in the back never had a long line and there was a water jug on the side that was self serve, using those cone cups you get at the dentist's office. A few more chairs and this would have been a higher star rating.

we will never go here again. worst security in all of seattle. the "big" bouncer is a real piece of, um, work. he thinks he is the kingpin of belltown! he is a liar and a theif!! he is trying to turn all his minions into bullies like him. i bet he took this job because he failed the spd psychological evaluation test, too bad, he would have made a good bad cop. the crocodile is dead to me.

Horrible staff for dimelo event, unprofessional securities, and they all lack knowledge. They were disrespectful, restrooms were disgusting, bad drinks, and the the lady allowing people to enter and giving tickets was extremely rude and and unprofessional

I am here to see a show. There is no seating it is just a bar and too many people. I hate places like this.

They tried to take off my bracelet but failed and yanked me to the ground hahahaha it hurt so bad
