A cool concept for a theatre but a few things could make this place better. The food was ok but very small portions for the money. I would just suggest going to eat somewhere else and them coming here for drinks/snacks. I've been to other theatre's that serve food and they have tables set up inside the theatre along with dim lights so you can see what your eating while it's dark. It was so awkward eating during the movie - you could see anything and had a tiny table to put your food on. Then when we were done, there was no ... read more

Violet Crown Cinema is super cool. A great, trendy, fresh take on movie theaters. I'm used to Alamo and sure, VC repeats some of their ideas but in a different way. 1. You walk up to a counter to order your drinks and food and then they have several places you can wait for your food. When your movie starts, you either bring your food and drink in, or you don't. They have tables that fold out of the sides of the theater seats if you need a table to eat. 2. I liked their food. There were a great mix of healthy and other ch... read more

This theater is a nice and i like that I dont have interuptions from staff bringing food. The staff is great and so is the food. It is a hidden gem, a great place for date night. Try the Chicago dog when you visit.

This and and Arbor cinema up north are the best places to catch indie and art house movies. When the budget is a little bigger and I have some money to burn, I come here. Brussel sprouts appetizer is amazing. Also have great bar service and specialty non alcoholic drinks like coffee. enjoy getting tickets early and sitting in comfortable recliners as well. don't forget to get some cake balls too. they are geeat!

I can't believe I haven't reviewed this place yet! I try to watch a movie here every time I'm in Austin. They have great snacks, concession products, and even drinks if that interests you. My favorite seats are really all of them, but I like to go in for an afternoon movie and book the front row. Their hummus plate is my favorite, and the overall selection of movies usually makes me feel like I've paid for a quality experience. I hear parking is awful, but I usually walk or cab it there. My reason for removiing a star ... read more

Easy to get to, FREE PARKING, a fantastic film selection you won't see in mainstream theaters, very comfy seats, AND... a really great bar staff. Ask Robert or Evan for their signature cocktails... they won't disappoint!

What a great theater. It's just interesting- the films selected, the staff, the bar and restaurant along with the vibe inside make this a favorite place to enjoy a movie.

I love this theater! The seats are comfy, the parking isn't as crazy as you'd think, and they always have good movies showing. What more could you also for?
