    Quality movies at a hidden cinema theatre. Guy at tktng counter (Philip) is great. Looks shady frm outside but inside is cool. Smaller screens but great movies.

    The popcorn is always good & made with real butter. Some auditoriums could use renovating. If people support this theater’s quality films & reasonable prices, I’m sure they’ll be able to make upgrades

    A fun, independent theatre. They serve freshly made pizza and popcorn and have a very personable feel. Bars and restaurants across the street make this a perfect post dinner destination.

    Such a wonderfully quaint theater- it is worth the trip just to experience the old timey cinema vibe this place has. Plus all the employees are super nice.

    The movies. That's all. The condition of this theater is shameful especially since it's no bargain and no improvements have been made in decades. I won't ever go back and this was my home town

    Scruffy but friendly cinema with a great selection of films. Try the butter popcorn or the amazing chocolate brownies.

    Ask if the film you're seeing is upstairs. If it is, consider another option. Picture/sound across the board substandard.

    If you are under 30, bring an ID to see an R rated movie; the ticket sellers won't care, but the manager will pounce on you if you're young looking.

    Old fashioned and small. A cheap place to catch the latest movies though

    Remember to stop at the ATM on the way, this Art Deco theater is truly old school: cash only.
