Reviews
"My friend and I went here to see Black Panther 2 and it was BEAUTIFUL. It was the perfect theater to see the movie in. Oh and no previews. The movie started exactly ON TIME so come early and grab your seats."
"Make you way to this theater for a unique movie experience! They are now pairing movies with pannel discussions afterwards! If you have never attended something of this magnitude well, you're in for a nice treat!"
"Beautiful movie theater. Friendly staff. However, Theatre 3 has a very small screen; it felt like watching a giant TV. The chairs were not the most uncomfortable either."
"Enjoyed the viewing of the penultimate episode of Broad City. The theater is quaint and intimate, making every seat a great seat. A bit strange that I had to show my ticket even to use the bathroom or visit the bar and concession stand. Once my ticket was scanned, showing again didn’t make sense, as you couldn’t access those amenities without a ticket. Just made things a little more difficult for me, personally, as I am a forgetful person!"
"Easily one of the best art house theaters around. Definitely the best in baltimore. The staff is great, knowledgeable and friendly. There is a selection of bar drinks. Keep an on the schedule as lots of good features pop up. The restoration of the theater was done spectacularly."
