Abstract We prove ‐regularity theorems for varifolds with capillary boundary condition in a Riemannian manifold. These varifolds were first introduced by Kagaya–Tonegawa. We establish a uniform first variation control for all such varifolds (and free‐boundary varifolds generally) satisfying a sharp density bound and prove that if a capillary varifold has bounded mean curvature and is close to a capillary half‐plane with angle not equal to , then it coincides with a properly embedded hypersurface. We apply our theorem to deduce regularity at a generic point along the boundary in the region where the density is strictly less than 1.
