I love going to the falls because of the dog, friendly environment, the beautiful landscapes, the variety of stores, and it being a wonderful place to people watch, eat and shop. The movie theater here used to be a choice. Now it is a destination. I love to go here because they feature some of the best movies and they have the most comfortable seats at any theater I've been to. There are two options, the first being a standard seat which both reclines and has multiple adjustments to make it extremely comfortable and see the movie well. The second our couches which are kind of fun and romantic, although very close to the screen and sometimes hard to watch the movie well. It is noted that when fully reclined it is hard to navigate drinking your beverage, but hey, comfort comes at a price. Is not all that difficult to put the seat up a bit or sit up to drink the beverage. The screens are perfect sizes for the different rooms and the sound systems are more than adequate to provide a wonderful movie experience. The theaters kept cleaner than most which is a big plus. The menu is not as extensive or as fancy as it's some theaters. It is however acceptable for movie night. I have tried most of the food and I have to say the pizza is awful. However, the sandwiches and salads are surprisingly good. On par with many restaurants. They are not fast food type sandwiches as both the hamburgers and chicken sandwiches taste freshly made and are both satisfying and quantity and taste great. The milkshakes are another highlight and if you ask for them thick, they will make it that way. They're delicious. The service is stand out good. They hire people that are extremely pleasant and serve relatively quickly depending on how many orders they are handling. Keeping in mind this is not a full restaurant kitchen. I think they do a great job. My major criticism is as part of the Regal family of theaters, I would think that they would offer the same perks. While my monthly dors include movies here at no additional cost, my annual club membership for half price popcorn and sodas is not honored here. And we all know the exorbitant price of theater sodas and popcorn. So if I'm not planning to eat, the same movie costs me considerably more if I come here than if I go to another Regal theater. If not for that, this would be my regular place to watch movies. Overall, this is a top movie destination for that night out of dinner and a movie when you want it all in one place. As a bonus, they have a really pleasant bar area, which is a bit open if you wanna have more intimate discussions, but as a place to hang out and get a drink. It is really quite nice and they have creative beverages for those who like such things. Highly recommended.

They were not granted access to the theatre because the movie was rated R so they needed an adult to accompany them. I understand this is their policy so I bought a ticket and walked them to their seats after purchasing snacks. Shortly after, since it was never my plan to stay, I left to pick up another one of my children from practice. I was called on my way to be informed that the group was removed from their seats because they saw me leave. These aren't rowdy teenagers and it was clear I gave them consent to watch this movie. While I understand the spirit of the policy, these aren't small children- they are young men hoping to watch a movie during a summer night with friends supporting theaters, instead of streaming something at home. It seemed the young manager was keen on enforcing the rule to the point of reimbursing my money for the tickets. All of this seemed so unnecessary for an 8:30pm movie on a Thursday night. Sadly, the theatre wasn't even packed for a new release. Probably should have been our first clue. On the bright side, the boys took an Uber to CocoWalk and were welcomed to the theatre without issue. It was just an unfortunate experience that didn't need to be.

The soft drinks and popcorn is refillable which is great as food is quite expensive. They have a bar and a video game area. The seats were comfortable but don't recline which wasn't terrible but makes us consider other theatres that do have reclining seats. It looked clean but had a funky smell when you walked in. The reason I am only giving 3 stars is because of the conditions of the bathrooms. THEY WERE DISGUSTING! There was toilet paper all over the floor all the stalls were dirty(floor and toilet seats) and they smelled. I know the there are many people a day coming in and out but someone should check on them once in a while. I did not see a cleaning log like other bathrooms so I assume they are only cleaned at the start of the day? Some of the stalls were closed with tape on the doors. Every other area of the theatre seemed well kept, not sure why the bathrooms can't be too. This is an easy fix if management cares.

Absolutely unacceptable treatment by management. We complained because the drawn-butter machine was…read morenot working, which was disappointing for a theater of this location, caliber, and price point. Things break -- we understand that. The issue was how the manager handled it. Instead of simply acknowledging the inconvenience and handling the complaint professionally, he became defensive and offered us butter in a cup in a way that felt completely dismissive. When we expressed that we were unhappy with the response, he apparently took our criticism personally and decided that we would not be allowed into the theater at all. Seriously? Customers can't complain about the service without a manager becoming offended and kicking them out? A good manager would have said, "I'm sorry about the inconvenience. Unfortunately, the machine isn't working tonight, but we'll make sure it's addressed." That would have been the end of it. Instead, the situation was unnecessarily escalated and we were treated as though we had done something wrong simply for voicing a complaint. For a theater charging premium prices in a prime location, I expected a much higher level of professionalism and customer service. The theater was practically empty on a Friday night, and after seeing how management treats paying customers who raise a concern, I can understand why. Needless to say, we will not be returning.

This is the Coconut Grove Playhouse. It was once the epicenter of the Miami theater scene. It opened on January 3, 1927 as part of the Paramount movie theater with a D.W. production of Satan of Sorrows. The 1,130 seat theater was designed by architect Richard Kiehnel of Kiehnel and Elliott. It was built by Miami local realtors Irving J. Thomas and Fin L. Pierce. Albert Peacock served as the contractor. The building originally had seven stores on the first floor, ten offices, on the second floor, and a third story of apartments. It was the second movie theatre on the east coast of Florida to be air conditioned. It also had the largest Wurlitzer organ in the United States. Although now blue, the original color of the building was sienna. In the 1930's the theater closed due to the Florida land boom bust, an economic downturn caused by two hurricanes and the Great Depression. During WWII the theater found new purpose as a school to train Air Force navigators. After the war the building was again closed until 1955 when George Engle, an oilman spent one million dollars on the theater to remodel it to accommodate the Coconut Grove Playhouse, Miami's first live theater. The renovated theater reopened on January 3, 1956, with the U.S. premiere of Samuel Beckett's existential play, Waiting for Godot starring Bert Lahr and Tom Ewell. Financial success eluded Engle in the ensuing years and the theater again closed in 1960. Producer Zev Buffman bought the building in March 1966 for more than $1 million. In 1970, former actor Eddie Bracken and his associates purchased the building. When Bracken's group failed to pay its debts, the Playhouse was sold at auction at the county courthouse. Arthur Cantor and Robert Fishko purchased the theater, and opened it for the 1971-72 winter season. Cantor and Fishko sold their interests in 1977. In 1980 the State of Florida became the owners. In 2004 the title was transferred to the Coconut Grove Playhouse LLC Inc. Through the years many famous people have performed at the theater including Jessica Tandy, Tallulah Bankhead, Carol Channing, Liza Minnelli, Linda Lavin, Bea Arthur, George C. Scott, Colleen Dewhurst, and Ethel Merman. On November 22, 1996, the Late Show with David Letterman originated from the theater. In 2005 the Coconut Grove Playhouse was designated historic by the City of Miami's Historic and Environmental Preservation Board. Four million dollars in debt, the theater abruptly closed in 2006. It has not been used since. In 2013 The Actors Playhouse in Coral Gables and the University of Miami were able to get inside and rescue many of the items including costumes, playbills, documents, and posters. The items are being stored at the University of Miami. The Playhouse was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2018. It is so sad to see this majestic building with so much history shuttered. A master plan to renovate the theater was approved by Miami's Environmental and Historic Board on April 4, 2017 but it was appealed. Since then nothing has been done as the building is broken into by vagrants and allowed to rot. Miami has so many beautifully preserved historic buildings. I have faith that they will get it together eventually.

Such a shame - Here is some history regarding it. The Coconut Grove Playhouse was a theatre in the Coconut Grove neighborhood of Miami, Florida, United States. The building was originally constructed as a movie theater called the Player's State Theater. It opened on January 3, 1927, as a part of the Paramount chain. The movie house was designed by the architect Richard Kiehnel of Kiehnel and Elliott. It was built by local realtors Irving J. Thomas and Fin L. Pierce. Albert Peacock was the contractor. The theater was renowned as the second movie theatre on the east coa It was used for a variety of shows until closing in 2006. It has not been used since. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2018.n the 1950s George Engle, an oilman, bought it and spent over $1 million (equivalent to $47 million in 2017) in renovations having the architect Alfred Browning Parker convert it to a live theatre It reopened on January 3, 1956 with the US premiere of Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot, starring Bert Lahr and Tom Ewell. In the fifty years that have followed, the Playhouse has played host to many of theater's most renowned performers, including Maureen Stapleton, Hume Cronyn, Jessica Tandy, Eve Arden, Tallulah Bankhead, Carol Channing, Liza Minnelli, Linda Lavin, Bea Arthur, George C. Scott, Colleen Dewhurst, Ethel Merman, and Raúl Esparza.
