A beautifully renovated 2-screen theater where movies run $11 per person and you can take your cafe food and (even alcoholic) drink inside. Decor: beautiful mural inside, super clean, standard movie seats Food and drink: you can buy classics like popcorn and candy at the concession stand that doubles as the box office or take your food/drink from the cafe inside They did a great job with this place - a classic with a modern twist.

So I'm surprised to hear that this place has been open since the summer and there is only one review of it so far. What a nice addition to the downtown Chatham area. For those that have been up here know. Lots of great shops and outdoorsy things to do while your up at the Cape. What happens when it's not beach season? Well if your staying in Orleans, Harwich, or Chatham (obviously) you don't have much of an option for indoor entertainment. Cue The Orpheum Theatre. Recently opened it provides a nice alternative to driving to Dennis or Hyannis and its a lot closer than going to the movies in Wellfleet. When you walk inside they have a great mural on the wall along with a small café style seating area where you can enjoy a coffee or a more adult beverage. There is still the usual fare of sodas, popcorn, and candy. They also have local gourmet chocolates if the Swedish Fish aren't calling your name. Now they only have two screens and the seating is limited but I feel like that is part of the charm. They seats are pretty comfortable and recline. There is also plenty of foot room for the 6' tall and up folks. The only downside is the seating is not stadium style so there is a possibility of not having a great view is your on the short side. Other than that I love the idea of being able to do dinner and a movie in a town that seems tailor fit for that activity. I hope everyone is able to enjoy the movies here as much as I did.

This small town theatre is truly an experience for anyone my age and younger, Yeah I'm talking to my fellow millennials! It is small with only 2 theaters but packs in all the necessary perks for a pleasant date night. The snack bar doubles as the box office and the bar serves drinks for you to enjoy during the show. They have a small picture of the movie poster posted up next to the door of each theatre so you can tell where each movie is playing. Unlike most updated modern movie theaters you will have to interact with a person to purchase your seats and have to find a seat once you enter the showing room. I know, I know, my fellow youngsters want to pick their seat at a kiosk and have robots run the bar, but this place will transport you back to a simpler time & fill you with nostalgia in places you usually fill with alcohol...... although there is room for both! The seating is all one level so choose wisely! The popcorn was so yummy and fresh, make sure you enjoy some! The entire place is tidy and the bathrooms were very clean.

Such a great theater experience! From the outside, I was intrigued just with having a small theater right in the middle of main street. The building had a nice architecture and blended with the overall quaint looking downtown Chatham. Walking inside, there's a beautiful mural of all my favorite characters and actors (I love movies) which made the whole place much more interesting for me. There is a full bar and extensive menu which is ideal for a perfect date or the sophisticated movie-goer. The whole place was squeaky clean, no sticky floors. Overall with prosecco served in a stemless wine glass in my hands, and an all beef hotdog with relish in a pretzel bun...had a perfect movie experience! Wish we had a similar theater in my town...

A cozy, cute small town movie theatre! Came here to checkout a movie and was pleasantly surprised at how top-notch this place was. There are two movie theatres inside, a small one and a main one... granted it's not your monster AMC or Regal, but the theatre oozes small town charm. The service/staff were on point and friendly, and the theatres were clean. Also, the actual screen and video quality were great as well. It's a little expensive, but what isn't on Cape Cod? I would come back.

Specialty cocktail menu that you can order and take into movie

The entire visit couldn't have been better. We thought we were just going into a little town theater for a movie, but didn't realize what a cool spot we found. It has recently been updated and has a great bar/cafe within the lobby. Bartender was welcoming and we were able to order food and beverages to take into movie! We sat in 2nd cinema and it was small, but picture/sound was clear. There is a main cinema that offers triple the seating for closer to 150.

This place is completely redone, disregard reviews from more than 1 year ago or so. All the new…read moreones are 5 stars except for Barry's from East Brunswick, NJ, because he's an idiot. I love this place. Everything is relative. Of course a huge imax might have a better experience from a visual and sound perspective but this place has awesome seats, with trays. They come and take your order in your seat, actually have good food (better than some of the restaurants around here), and the screen and sound is great. I just hope more people come so it stays open. It's WAY better than Mashpee and much better than the old Falmouth one too. Give it a try. It's also reasonably priced. Kids trays were 9.95 and included juice, skittles, and popcorn. They sell booze too.

Never seems to be especially busy here - a sign of the times, but continues to serve as a pleasant…read moreentertainment resource for the town and surrounding area. I keep an eye on the showtimes from over on Martha's Vineyard as they occasionally will have features that don't show up on the island. I've only had the chicken fingers from the dining room and feel like they were lacking on my most recent visit, but previous times have been nice. And the staff seems to have a clearer system at this point to take care of food and drink at the start of the show and let the guests enjoy their movie. Being on the Vineyard boat schedule inevitably leads to more checking of the time during the film than I would in other locations. I wouldn't mind an opportunity to see an old fashioned event movie here with a large crowd, if and when that comes to pass.
