Seriously comfy reclining lounge seats! Wow!
Paul P.

Came to watch the Clooney movie about Crew - "The Boys in the Boat" (BTW - great movie!). First time at this theater, and I was quite impressed! Ticket purchase online was easy-peasy! I noted on their website that they have special pricing most days for various groups. Very reasonable prices overall! Inside the theater itself - very impressed with the comfortable reclining seats, spacing and set up for viewing. Couldn't be better. We did not get any snacks or drinks, so can't comment about that, except for a very unfortunate news segment I coincidentally saw after we'd left. Significant Health Department issues, so...yuck! Clean up your issues there, and this would easily be a 5 out of 5 experience!

Saw Wicked at this theater. Chairs were clean and comfortable! Will be back for another film at this theater. Monday movie deals were great- $6 movie tickets and $3 medium popcorn

Assigned reserved recliner seats. It's easy enough to buy your tickets in advance and pick your exact seats. The reclining seats are comfortable, and the visabillty and sound is very good. The bathrooms are fairly clean, and the men"s room features thoughtful quotations strategically placed. I can't say I'm a fan of the food options, but it's very typical, and of course pricy. The popcorn is pretty good. They have a good selection of first run movies. There are several great options to eat or shop while you are waiting for your movie.

Bathroom stall motivation.

I'm old so we get a seniority discount. I love the kids at the counter. They are very nice and helpful. And the seating is pretty good

The concession stand offers a few different snacks that I didn't expect I found plenty of parking on the street. The staff were very pleasant and helpful.

My husband had to wedge himself in and barely fit in the seat. When he asked if there were other options, he was told we could sit in the table seating in the back, but we had purchased VIP to sit up close, so he decided to just be a bit uncomfortable rather than be at the back of the theater. I know theaters have tight space and other considerations, but considering they were remodeled not all that long ago, I was surprised about the seat size. The bathroom situation is also a bit of an issue. You need to go downstairs and the set up is a bit strange. There aren't many stalls, and the layout makes it awkward for getting in and out, especially if there is a line. All that being said, it is a lovely theater with friendly staff and fairly affordable concessions. I just wish the seating was more comfortable.

I'm a fan of a perfect movie experience. I'm also a fan of small business. This place is a smaller…read morelocal chain with a few locations in the Pittsburgh area and two in Ohio. The prices scream small business and I love it. Prices are different at each location so keep that in mind. Without listing their entire price list, it's basically ten bucks per adult person. The ticket purchase is painless as they do accept credit cards. The lobby smells of candy almonds. I love almonds so I have to divert my attention elsewhere. I'm sure I'd be tempted with a few options. I don't even know what they have! The men's restroom is the give away that you are in a small business. Above the urinals are quotes about kindness. Which is, in my opinion, something we all could use more of in this world. This cinema has several theaters, some are the gentle sloping while others featured steep seating. Steep seating is definitely my preference for seating angles. The higher slope enables shorter audiences to see without being blocked as easily. The surround sound in our theater was wonderful. Although, at times I could hear the theater next door. Either their soundproofing isn't up to snuff, or their volume is set too high. Even with this issue I still enjoyed my movie. However, It could be a bigger issue if you're watching a quiet movie. One other major thing I noticed was they employed two handicapped people. I personally don't see that too often.

This was our second time at this cinema in a few weeks. Just this afternoon we saw Sense and…read moreSensibility. In our two trips, we were in two different theaters, one sloped and one stepped. Pre-Show: Online ticket purchases are easy. As is the ability to use your QR code to get your tickets onsite. Adding $3 as a service charge should be reconsidered. Welcome: Employees have been super friendly. They've been genuine and professional. Good start. Food: We got popcorn, pop, raisinets, and water. This is our norm. All were good. Seats and views: The chairs are super comfortable recliners. The theaters are clearly marked and clean. Plenty of room and virtually impossible for anyone to be in your way. Screens: Good. In today's movie the top and bottom of the projected image leaked over the screen. It was not harmful to the experience, but it was noticeable. Sound: This is the reason for just 3 stars. Sound is such an important part of the in-theater movie experience. Movies will always be that much better with great sound. Often great sound means loud; not ear blasting but substantial. You know what I mean. In both theaters, the sound was way too low. I almost got up to let them know during the first 5 minutes. Again, two theaters, two different movies, same low sound issue. We'll likely be back. If the sound is low again, we'll likely find another cinema.
