A fine VERY old nice theatre. If you get a chance to see a performance here do it.

It was my first time here, my daughter had her dance recital. This place is amazing and the price for drinks and popcorn isn't outrageous like at the movie theaters. Definitely coming back.

Located right along Route 37 in Lakeland, easily seen from the road. Very nice old theater, beautifully decorated. Staff was very nice, friendly and helpful. Temperature was fine, not too warm or too cold. Small concession stand selling popcorn, hot dogs and soft pretzels, as well as, water, coke, diet coke, sprite, beer and wine. Seating was comfortable, aisles were roomy. Other patrons were friendly. Restroom is on second floor up some stairs. My only (small) complaints were: I wish there was clarity as to where to park and I wish there were more soda options. Regardless, we had a great time seeing a Led Zeppelin tribute band (I hope I'm using the correct term). They were really good. Our time at the theater was a wonderful experience.

Tonight was our first Polk Theater experience and we loved it. This beautiful vintage theater is pretty magnificent. The detailed theming is such artfully preserved that it makes seeing a movie a special event again. They even have a huge balcony with plenty of seats. As we walked into the theater we could hear organ music playing and were happily surprised to see an organist playing live. They have a small concession stand with popcorn, pretzels, hotdogs, candy, sodas, beer and wine. Prices were good. We saw Love, Gilda tonight and really enjoyed learning more about Gilda Radner. The staff in the theater were all nice and friendly. We are looking forward to our next experience at The Polk Theater.

It is most definitely a non smoking structure. Primarily to preserve the historical aspects of the theatre.

If they were purchased from the theatre call customer service. If it was through a third party, you have to call them since the theater can't refund and reissue them

Does the theater have any kind of help for handicap to park and get into theater?

S Hyde | Sep 9, 2019
Todd Phillips | Sep 9, 2019

Not that I know of. The theater does not have it's own parking lot, so parking can be a little bit of a pain.

Most people who work there as ushers and in concessions are volunteers I believe. Yes, just call them. I am sure they will be happy to hear from you.
