Adorable movie theatre! Came here with a friend to catch a flick on a Friday night and really loved the atmosphere. There is a great snack/drink menu - be sure to get the bottomless popcorn and soda! The theatre itself is super cozy and a bit on the smaller side. Coming from the DC area, you don't really find spots like this one. This place was so refreshing!
Came in for the a/c and a quick drink. What we found was a great bartender/filmmaker. Handcrafted cocktails and movie talk, what could be better. The bar is attached to the upstairs movie theater. An elevated concession stand. It's worth checking out.
I would call this a special little hideaway, like a speakeasy hidden in a theater. The most sophisticated drinks from a pro.
Visiting from Los Angeles I'm used to theaters immediately turning on the house lights as soon as the credit sequence starts and it's very annoying. I was pleasantly surprised that I was able to enjoy the darkness for a while and allow the effect of the movie to wash over me and then the lights dimly came on. Such a wonderful change from expectations and love the design of the theater lobby. Thank you to all the friendly staff for their help making this a fun visit.

This is a rarity: an independent cinema. It's also in downtown Charlottesville and it's actually nice. I was directed to a kiosk on entry to order tickets, and seats were not assigned. I found a banger of a movie. The inside temperature was a bit cold for me on a winter day, and I thought it strange that restrooms were outside the ticketed area (so one has to remember to keep a ticket on you in case they wanted to trouble you about going back in). I didn't get any food but to be fair the popcorn smelled legit and a fair numb... read more
If I'm anything I'm honest. Was this movie theater top notch? No not really. The seats are quite a bit worn down (my ass quite literally fell asleep in it) and the theater was a bit messy. The food options are exactly what you expect from any run of the mill theater. The movie projector is likely outdated as well with low resolution. Pros: the place is virtually empty during the weeknights. Get the whole theater to yourself. Location is ideal for dates. Place has an old time feel. Movie selections are usually always great... read more
Seats are comfortable however do not recline. Sound was good. Parking validated for 4 hours so park in garage and bring ticket with you
We had a gift card from years ago, and the staff were super kind and helpful. Didn't love the movie but loved the experience! And the hot dogs are great!
