Fun, local place to catch a mix of films, some pizza and a beverage. It's understandable that they had to shift business model to first run a bit to survive...Would rather see them adapt like this than close down; can't let the perfect be the enemy of the good.

I love this little Art Deco style theater. They usually play a first run film or two AND a ton of classic movies, too The classics are usually themed as well, so they'll play a month or two of Sci-Fi movies and then switch to horror l, for example. It's like an ongoing film festival! Another perk- the concessions are very reasonably priced as well.

It was nice to have options like adult beverages or soda or water, a sushi restaurant option along with flying pie pizza as another and still enjoy a movie in a small theater.

Some big movies coming out this summer! I want to see a few of them with friends but they won't be here in time. Does this theater play movies four-six months old? Or are there any other Portland theaters that do that? Thanks!

I noticed you no longer have movies during the day time. You use to, is this permanent?

Trudi Elbon | Feb 17, 2022
Grace Stewart | Feb 17, 2022

Hello Trudi; No, I don't think it will be permanent. Since re-opening in mid-July, we have experimented with different programming to see what works best in the current environment. I think as people feel better about going to the movies at levels pre-pandemic, we will get back to our full schedule of five sets/15 screenings a day. Thank you for checking in. See you at the movies!

Do you have a planned reopen date yet? Very excited to come back!
