    Bistro Theater
    Fran B.

    What a fun place! I just moved to the area recently and going to the movies used to be one of my favorite things before the pandemic. I thought the only theatre in the area with recliners was in O'Fallon. I was pleasantly surprised to find this gem! I love the bistro theatre! I can't wait to bring all my friends to explore everything else! I took one star off because I ordered food in the theatre and my burger did not come with any condiments (mayo, mustard). It's also way too dark in the theatre for me too eat so next time I will eat at the restaurant.

    Been in S. IL for awhile, have often seen this place in passing on the freeway. Man have we been missing out!! This place doesn't look like much from outside (more like an old roller rink or bowling alley) but you go inside and WOW! They have so much going on movie theaters, race cars, bumper cars, bar, restaurant and video games. We all had such a great time!! Unfortunately they have a height and age limit on the cars, even though my grandson surpassed the height limit he was unable to ride (even with a paying adult) because he didn't meet age reqs, no-one in our group got to utilize the car part. As for the gaming area, we played almost $200bks if not more but didn't notice since we had such fun and all the games were working!! *Quick Note*... we've been going to DogWoods and it's always a disappointment because their game selection sucks and mostly because the very few games they have are broke down! The Edge IS our new got to place The food was Not Disappointing. We got burgers which were all so yummy as were the fries and a appetizer of chili fries for the table, omg those chili fries didn't look the best BUT darn were those babies so freakn' good!!! In fact we all went back just for those chili fries! Service was very nice, they mixed up our, forgot bacon on both bacon burgers, brought a burger plate we didn't order and another burger was the wrong burger but it got fixed when we mentioned it....I was a little disappointed they didn't offer a discount on the meal when they mess up orders but the good food seemed to have made us forget about the mix up. Ps they do have a small room with casino machines for the grown up near the bar.

    I'm not sure where to start but I guess I will start with the good stuff. This is a huge entertainment center for both kids and adults. They have a movie theater, arcade, VR, bumper cars, go carts, bowling, laser tag, and a restaurant/bar. The employees that were working the VR, and go carts were awesome! Staff in general here were friendly but the manager needs some training. Example would be serving customers in the order they were in line but he helped people randomly. There are a few areas with arcade games. We didn't know there was one upstairs with bowling. If we would have known we would have the kids wonder up there to play games too. But the games are expensive!! They're 1$ per game and some of these games can be played as fast as 2 seconds. VR ranges from 4-8$ and that's a bit pricy for a game that's a few mins long. My sister in law ended up spending about 100$ in VR for her kids. They also kinda cheat you when you're loading your card so watch your card history. For example, you buy 20$ you get 22$ of credit so 2$ for free. But once you swipe for that first game. They will take it back. When we swiped for a 4$ game, they took 4$ plus 2$. We should have paid attention a little closer. Overall, this is a good place for a little entertaining but be prepared to drop some $$$$.

    We recently gone and they renovated the front room looks much cleaner for sure. But feels way more empty, the games kinda suck still, restaurant staff are ehhh ok kinda rude but more like they don't wanna be there food is good except kids menu, my son got a hotdog that was shriveled up and bun was hard as if they left the bag open over night or something, asked for a new one they brought back something similar

    See all

While it is not plainly posted on their website, it is prominently displayed at their entrance. So... bring ample cash to cover your party's admission. The physical setup is dialed in, parking is organized by "white" spaces for regular sized cars and "orange" marked ones for bigger vehicles, like vans. You're told which to use at admission, and this ensures everyone's view of the screen is unobstructed. The movie itself started on time, the quality of the projection and audio were also great. We brought our foods this time so I can't comment on the food stand. Our family of 7, really appreciated Skyview's "kids night," as all kids under 12 had free admission. For $20 ($10 per adult), we were able to take our family to this newly released kid's movie. What a bargain... practically unheard of in these times! Combine that with their renovated playground and it's really unmatched anywhere else. Most attendees were respectful of others, though I did see a strong usher presence at the ready, so that may have helped! Skyview is a gem, definitely worth the visit and particularly so on family night if you've got a load of kids!

    I just moved to Edwardsville two months ago (from St Louis) and was looking forward to checking out…read morethe local movie theater since I finally had one extremely close to me (it's like a 5 minute drive!). So, as with most things, I hopped on Yelp and was shocked with the low ratings and reviews. Nonetheless, I still planned to check it out, I still planned on having my very own experience. I've been twice in the last month and was pleasantly surprised. Firstly, there was ample parking both times (I went to evening shows). Once inside, things were clean (although I haven't checked out the restrooms yet), the temperature was comfortable, and the popcorn was good (you can add your own butter and such!). The employees were also pleasant enough - I'll take that. The seating in the auditorium I sat in the first time was more comfortable than the second, but nothing unbearable. The screens and sound were of good quality too. Side Note: Predator: Badlands was AWESOME! I allow grace for places of business to have an off day at times, fully realizing if that "off" day just so happens to be each and every time you've patronized it then that's probably just the norm. But I also recognize that these days especially , it's hard to find and keep decent employees, and that has a trickle down effect. Anyway, this may not be a fancy theater with reclining seats or call-buttons to order from your seat, but this movie theater is a solid option to catch a movie if you're okay with those things.

It's for sure due for a lobby and concession area "glow up" The newer theatres with Dolby sound and recliner seats are clean and the seats are comfy. My only complaint about the seats is the recliner works oddly. It's sort of all or nothing which I'd prefer to have my legs up and not lie down. I'd skip pretzels, mine were cold and lacked any flavor. For the more outdated theatre the prices are high, almost $20 for a movie here which is more than the prices at the brand new theatre in St. Louis so In my opinion, it's too high. If you are into a no frills movie experience then this is the spot! Good popcorn and comfy seats!

The seats were comfortable and roomy, and the movie was really great, but we wish it was longer. The only issue was getting back down in the the accessible elevator. It was full of people with strollers and no one would make room to get my Dad in his scooter on, so we stood there for 20 minutes while elevators opened and closed in front of us until there was one empty enough to get inside. People should be more mindful... if there are eight people in an elevator and only one is pushing a stroller, the other seven people really should get off the elevator and take the stairs if they are physically able to make room for someone in a scooter or wheelchair. It was ridiculous. It was a hot day and the science center was jampacked. It was like the hunger games. LOL!

Due to this the seats didn't lean back, so they were not as comfortable as the ones further down. Also we could feel all the vibrations of the sound, which honestly I enjoyed!!! Some of the images during the movies were a little curved and distorted due to the size of the screen. But overall it was a cool experience. I would love to go back again and see one of the movies that are specifically made for the omnimax screen!

When we arrived, they scanned my tickets and directed me to the theater assigned. This last visit, we did not order snacks, but I did notice that the soda machines are just back to the regular soda fountains and not those annoying touch screen ones that could never keep up with the demand. They have soda machines on both sides as well as icee machines and there is a space in the middle for napkins and other items. Seating is nice in all of the theaters since it is assigned, and I like being able to recline. The only theater you can't recline in is the IMAX theater, so I hardly watch IMAX movies. The seats we were in were still a little messy from the previous movie, so we had to knock off some popcorn and some candy. The floors were somewhat clean, but probably still needed to be swept, but it was probably not possible to do since this weekend was really busy. The floor was also a bit sticky so that's annoying. The bathroom stalls were not cleaned very well. The line in the ladies room was super long because there were only a few stalls to use since the others were messy or just gross. I wish they would do some updates or find other ways to make this Ronnie's a little nicer. It just has an okay feel to it. Nothing too fancy.
