    Authentic cinema! The interior at this place is so nice and worth coming for! It's a prober old…read morecinema and the atmosphere here is just amazing! From the outside this place looks really small, and it is, but they still managed to make room for everything whilst keeping it cosy and nice! You can come here for dinner, drinks and a movie, and when I was here I was met by the sweetest personal, both at the bar and at the reservation desk! :) If I should say one bad thing about this place though, it would be that they should have more toilets.. You can end up standing in line quite some time, especially just before a film starts;)

    I had dinner and a movie with friends at the Movies last night. First of all, really cool concept…read morewith the old style movie theater and traditional Dutch style cafe restaurant. My only dissatisfaction in the experience was the food. My wife at the gnocchi and I had the rump steak. Both were below expectation. This is a shame because I feel this concept could strike gold especially as the hipster scene is becoming more prominent in Amsterdam. Nevertheless, the movie theater itself was a very cool experience. The theater has an antique feel transporting you back in time. Overall a positive experience. If they could improve the quality of food and have a more seamless transition from restaurant to movies I think this could really take off.

    Great place to stop for a quick bite while exploring Amsterdam. The museum…read more.... Loved the cafe in the Eye Filmmuseum. Such a beautiful cafe with tiered seating overlooking the water. The carrot ginger soup with a slice of bread and butter was so delicious. Our friend enjoyed his avocado toast with a poached egg. Lunch for four with drinks was 44 euros which I think is a bargain for a nice lunch at a museum cafe. The museum itself is a bit odd. Entry to the special exhibits is up a flight of stairs. The exhibit we viewed was completely in the dark and a bit risqué. Definitely not appropriate for kids. The permanent collections are down the stairs with a separate entry that requires your ticket to be scanned again. Would not make a special trip here, but perfect for a lunch stop if you are doing This is Holland and the A'DAM Lookout Tower and Swing. Included on the I Amsterdam Card. Just have your card scanned. No need for a reservation.

    It has one of the most gorgeous views in_the_world!…read more Some of my happiest moments have been at the highest point of the stairs in the restaurant facing the IJ, the body of water between Centraal Station and Noord. This iconic building houses the national film archives and three annual exhibitions in addition to a permanent one. It has four movie theaters, a stunning restaurant and bar and finally, a gift shop. Forget Starbucks. Hop on a free ferry in front of the train station. Bring your laptop and work remotely in a tiered, cinematic space with dozens of others who vie for favorite view points in the restaurant. The food at the Eye Bar restaurant is fine, but the real joy is the people watching and the view. Currently on view is a retrospective of Werner Herzog's work.

    Was denied the ability to see a late night screening because the staff wanted to close up early…read more Apparently the man who showed up 3 min behind me was enough for them to decide to show it! But I was so offended by their lack of professionalism, I left. Terrible service, don't give them the time of day. When you say you are going to show a film and someone shows up to see it... please show it?

    This is my favorite movie spot in the city, and yes, I have seen most of them. If you like the…read morequintessential movie experience with the crowds and huge stadium seating, then this is not the place for you. But, if you enjoy a more intimate setting which is in the heart of the city's 'entertainment area' and is generally frequented by serious movie-goers, you will absolutely love Pathe City. They recently renovated the downstairs area with some seating and a coffee bar, which is great if you arrive earlier for a movie. Speaking of which, Pathe City shares the building with Little Buddha and a casino next door, meaning you don't even have to leave the building to skip over to those spots. There are a LOT of steps as already mentioned. Seating is nicer than the theater at Muntplein, with cup holders on armrests instead of below the seat in front (I never understood that weird concept anyway). Since it's next to Little Buddha, if you watch a movie on a late weekend night and happen to be at the wrong theater, you might hear some background music. Depending on the movie, it might not be all that bad. One time, they offered to refund ticket money to anyone who was getting bothered by the music. My only gripe with Pathe City is that it seems to only screen the more tasteful movies, which is good if you are trying to get into a show of 'Safe Haven', but not if you fancy the latest in the 'Hangover' series. I guess it's part of their plan to target a certain demographic.
