Lincoln Theater - Welcome to Lincoln Theater - a premier entertainment destination in Napa Valley! We have some very exciting programming to offer you – thanks in large part to the extremely generous support from our community, including Friends of Lincoln Theater board members –the same wonderful people who brought about the transformation of the theater during the past five years. Since the theater has been open now for almost a full year, we have already had some spectacular performing arts experiences in this lovely hall. We have seen Broadway performers, legends from the world music genre, and the incomparable Johnny Mathis – on stage with our own Napa Valley Symphony - not to mention community presentations like Napa Regional Dance Company’s sold out performances of The Nutcracker.

Napa Valley Opera House - The Napa Valley Opera House was built in 1879 as one of the first "respectable" venues west of the Mississippi River. For the latter half of the 19th century, the Napa Valley Opera House was the cultural center for the region, until the decline of vaudeville and other pressures forced it to go dark in 1914. The house was nearly destroyed until a few Napa Valley Opera House devotees spared it from the wrecking ball in the early 1970s. For the last 15 years, the NVOH has been slowly restoring itself for a new future through a series of fundraising challenges, construction activities and visionary plans. The house came back to life in June 2002 with the opening of the Cafe Theatre; its historic main hall is expected to reopen in late summer, 2003, in all of its original splendor.

The Depot originated in the late 1800’s as a small market, and later morphed into a saloon. It was purchased in 1925 by the late Teresa Tamborelli who turned it into the regions first Italian restaurant, forging a following for her home-made pasta’s and home-style cooking. Legend has it that Tamborelli created the restaurant’s signature pasta, called Malfatti, when she ran out of ravioli with a restaurant full of hungry Baseball players from San Francisco. The restaurant continues under the stewardship of Russell Kassman, who purchased the business in 2004 from direct relatives of the founder, who remain active in the business to date. The Rainbow Room opened as a Cabaret addition to The Depot in September of 2004, crafted from the old “porch” of the original structure. The room features diverse entertainment and a cosmopolitan clientele.

Napa Valley Brewing Company - In 1987, the Calistoga Inn gave birth to Calistoga beer and the Napa Valley Brewing Company. The Inn was the first establishment to brew beer commercially in Napa County since the days of prohibition. The Calistoga Inn and its brewery were incorporated on May 5, 1989 and a full-time, dedicated brewmaster was hired. At that time the brewery started regularly producing its four principal beers; Calistoga Wheat Ale, Calistoga Pilsner Calistoga Red Ale and Calistoga Porter. Since the companies inception, our brewmaster has introduced specialty beers during the off-season. They are Calistoga Stout, Calistoga IPA and Calistoga Barley Wine. Ninety-five percent of our production is served on draft at the Calistoga Inn, while the other five percent is sold in kegs to local residents and distributed in bottles and kegs to a few select local restaurants and specialty food markets.
