The Logan Theatre

I can not believe it’s taken me this long to write a review here. This is hands down my favorite theater I’ve ever been to in my entire life. I dread going anywhere else. They always have the movies we want to see, my kids have grown up coming here. Its art deco design is stunning, the comfiest squishy leather bouncy seats, full bar, BEST popcorn & snacks and it’s so much less expensive than the big box theaters. Their late night movies & special vintage showings are always on point. I just love it here. Staff is the best, clean, cozy, friendly. It can’t be beat.

Such a gorgeous old-school 1915 movie theater with vintage charm and minaculate care. Full bar and lounge; comfortable cinema seats and superb customer service. I recommend you check it out for yourself. 📽🍿🥤

My boyfriend and I love The Logan Theater! It’s been beautifully restored while still having a super historic vibe. It’s clean, comfortable and affordable. I love the late night shows they do. I will say though a start time of 11pm is rough, I fell asleep twice. I wish they started at 10pm, but still the coolest concept. Maybe I’m old

I love this theater. Nice mix of classics and new titles. It's clean, quiet and they don't blast you with stupid trivia and ads for coke right as the movie is starting unlike some chain movie houses I'll never go back to. My only beef is that it gets cold in there, even on a breezy day. I hate having to carry a sweatshirt or blanket to a theater on a summer day.

The Logan Theatre is completely redone but still kept nostalgic items in place. The people there were friendly and I enjoyed seeing my movie in a clean, well kept theater. I'll definitely be back for more soon.

Been awhile since we been here. So happy we did. Great seats. Good sound system and smaller. Like it that way. Plenty of refreshments and snacks. Very clean appearing! Had a great evening.

The theatre itself is beautiful and the girls at the door/register for snacks were very friendly, but the manager (I think it was the manager, as the girl checking the tickets went to him for advice) was very rude! I bought snacks and a Diet Coke at the theatre, but had a can of Iced Tea in my bag from earlier that day. I am not from the US and never had my bag checked at a cinema, so this was new for me. They told me I could not bring it in to the theatre, which was okay with me. Rules are rules. I asked if I could possible store my bag/the can somewhere, as I was not planning on drinking it, after all I bought coke at the theatre. Instead of being friendly and helping, this manager came across as very rude and even angry. Not the nicest experience. Other than that, it was so cold inside! I was in Theatre 3 and had a cardigan on, but I considered leaving halfway through because I was so cold.

My favorite place in all of Logan Square. The bartenders are amazing and pour strong. Every employee I’ve witnessed is kind, cool and seems to love their job. The seats are meh, and a couple theaters have weird setups (like really high screens), but 10/10 my favorite place in Chicago to see a movie. Also, highly recommend selfie photoshoots with the life-sized Michael Myers during spooky season. 🎃

This is an old school small theater that gets 1st run films. The screens aren't huge, but they are big enough and they have comfy chairs that have a good recline with plenty of leg room. And best of all tickets cost $12, not the nearly $30 for an IMAX experience at AMC or Regal. The Logan Theater has a full bar. They have a great selection of local and micro brews. Their popcorn is fresh and they have plenty of other food options. The bathrooms are clean and they have cold water with cups in the hallway if you don't wants to buy a soda, beer or cocktail. Frankly I wish there were more places like this.

Saw a quiet place day one here! Fantastic little theater with a bar and food!! Extremely well priced for the area!! Seats don't recline but that helped give it the vintage feel! I would go back in a heartbeat!

I love the Logan Theater! It is so great that this cute theater is right off the blue line. It is clean, affordable, and has a decent amount of films and showtimes. We prefer going here over any of the other large chain theaters in the city. 10/10 recommend!

I [attempted] to go to Logan Theatre on Monday, September 30. I had purchased tickets less than 24 hours before to go see a silly horror movie (Sleepaway Camp) with some friends. The day of the movie I went to the website to confirm the time of the movie and the movie was weirdly gone from the schedule. I jokingly said to my friend, "Surely they didn't just cancel it the day of??" I called the theater around 4-5 pm to ask if it was still showing. I called probably 10 times, it rang and rang and rang each time and I let it ring until it ultimately disconnected. No one answered. No voicemail option. I checked my email to make sure I didn't get a notice about it being canceled. Oh well, I mean they wouldn't do that without telling the people who bought tickets already, right? WRONG. My friends and I drove to the theatre and the staff kind of chuckled and said it had been canceled. What?! We asked if they would refund us and they said probably in a few days. No other offer of rectifying the situation. We left and took our business elsewhere. I have tried to call the theatre again and emailed them to ask about getting a refund. Still have yet to hear back and still have not been refunded. This is wildly unprofessional on all accounts. When I tell people this story they are incredulous. I will not be returning to Logan Theatre again.

Having recently moved to Chicago I was excited to learn about this small local theater within walking distance from my house. I love supporting smaller venues and Logan Theater did not disappoint. We walked right up and purchased our tickets, we were greeted by all staff with smiles and warmth. The small concession area was well staffed and the popcorn was hot and buttery. The actual theater was small and intimate but we did not feel at all uncomfortable. It was spacious enough without being overwhelming. I loved how cozy it was. The movie was shown on the big bright screen and the sound was good. We will be back.

Classic, old school theater but with working modern amenities. Looks like a great line up of trivia, cult classic films and themes...along with new releases. We saw The Whale (definitely worth a watch - 2023 is the year of Brenden Frazier and I am here for it). Sound was good, seats were comfortable, screen quality was good. We didnt partake, but looks to have a full far and quick turbo chef menu. Would for sure come again - maybe not for a summer blockbuster, but Kevin Smith film or indie release for sure.

Such a lovely vintage vibe here. The theatre has been respectfully restored and I just love that! Great staff. They have a bar too!

Went to see Inside Out 2 with my 10 yr old daughter and her friend. Not a bad theatre. There was pretty decent food and then they also had a bar which is nice if you want a cocktail with your movie. I wish but since I was in charge of someone else's kid I decided not to partake. Overall it was a pretty good experience. It's one of the cleaner theaters in the city.

Very nice theater in a cool neighborhood. This theater is about 2 miles away from where we live and while it is not the closest theater it is the one that gave us the most charm. We went to watch venom 2 at the theater. We decided To go before Everyone got off of work and beat the rush crowd.. For our benefit there was only about a only about a dozen people in the theater, which is nice during covid, but I know also a struggle for the theater superior what is real cool about the theater is that they have a lot of old charm and theatrical artwork 2 enjoy. The perks of the theater is it has a full bar, lounge area, concession stand. You're able to get the items that you traditionally love at the movies hot buttered popcorn large, large soda or slushy; but you're also able to grab a adult beverage if wanted. The theater itself is small, I don't believe it has more than 6 screens. The screams were of decent size but not super large like a imax. I thought the quality of the sound and the specs of the screen were warfarely good. The seats the seats are leather but they do not lounge lounge and they do have cup holders. There is plenty of paid parking nearby. I love how you can catch a matinee for less than $8 then go have happy hour at a nearby bar. Definitely we'll go see most of my movies this Winter at Logan theater.

The Logan Theatre is special. It offers an intimate, traditional movie theater experience that's disappearing from larger chains. Instead of reclining arm chairs and premium seating, you sit nearly shoulder to shoulder w/ shared arm rests the way God intended. It's the movie theater equivalent of shopping local, a local landmark, and they go out of their way to keep the place clean and inviting when larger chains no longer seem to make the effort. Movies seem to come and go much faster than larger chains, but they set up a lot of limited event screenings of classic movies (especially during Halloween or Christmas), or hosting special events w/ the Japanese Cultural center (anime!). Not to mention their weekly movie trivia and open mic nights, hosted at the in-theater bar, perfect for meeting up before your movie, or bringing a drink into your show.

This is a darling theater that will feel as if you're stepping back several years in time. I've noticed at least one of screens has old seats and that makes the movie feel longer. But other screens have newer seats and are much more comfy!

Finally we can go watch movies again! Instead of patronizing one of the chain theaters and their $20 tickets, we decided to go here. We were NOT disappointed! The place was SOO CUTE! This place is straight out of a movie itself and clearly has so much history! I've driven past it for years and for some reason never gone in. That was a MISTAKE! The service was friendly and helpful at the bar. And since they allowed us to bring their plastic cups into the auditorium, it was a convenient way to have a few drinks and watch a movie. The prices were decent for a theater and far from the $15-20 drinks at the DT dine-ins. The auditorium itself was small and cozy yet the seats were surprisingly comfortable! We will DEFINITELY be visiting this place again soon. Anytime I want to see a movie out, I will come here with my money.

The Logan Theatre is an incredible gem, not just for Logan Square, but for the entire state. The more than century-old theatre shows both new, first-run and classic movies. In my short time as a Chicago resident, I've seen "Bros" and "Halloween Ends" here. Comfortable leather seats? Check. Sleek cocktail bar/lounge? Check. Art deco design? Check. New sound equipment and lighting? Check and check. Staff are always incredibly helpful and welcoming!

Visited the Logan Theatre on the Sunday before Halloween to watch "Smiling" and let me tell you I absolutely will be back. As soon as I walked through the entrance I was flooded with nostalgia from childhood days. Everyone was so nice and welcoming, the concession food was decently priced. I'm not too keen on movie theater food, but let me tell you the pizza was actually good. They have a bar with a lounge area where they have open mic nights which is pretty neat. The seating area inside the theater was comfortable, they have updated seats. None of that old school seating from back in the day. Support this place, it's a classic. Perfect spot for a date.

the logan theatre is truly what the music box wishes it could be, but could never be! after my horribly embarrassing experience at mb last year, i never thought i would come to one of these old-timey music theaters again. mb spit in the face of a noir classic, so let's just say i had doubts about all these old theaters. (see my review of mb for more info) the logan theater is a vast improvement! it's everything you'd hope for from a theatre like this. nice management, comfy seats, a screen that towers in front of you demanding your attention. today i came here for "three thousand years of longing" and it's been a while since my last visit to this theater. i forgot how charming as all hell this place was. i'll definitely be back soon even though it's quite a ways away from home. walk to miko's italian ice for a treat or have dinner at andros taverna while you're at it.

I used to come often to this theater a few years ago, on pre pandemic times, when I lived about a mile away in that side of town, and had to walk often in the area, plus went there a Sunday or two, during non peak hours, middle of the day showings. I was recently back visiting the great city of Chicago and was happy to stop by, it's definitely vintage, old school that has withstand time, space, and the big movie and high tech theaters, the seats and inside are basic, good basic, the sound is ok, and the service was satisfactory. It has a bar at the front, that goes to the street and has old timeless city vibe. I love it, and was happy to visit again and experienced one more time.

This is an awesome neighborhood gem. I love old school type of theaters and this one doesn't disappoint. In addition to showing the latest movies they can be rented for events, they host open mics and other special events and do special viewings of old musicals and other special movies. They also have food, drinks, and alcoholic beverages that you can enjoy in different rooms all around the theatre. It's a great place to take in the history of Chicago.

I came here last night to see Mid90s and it was my first time to this theater and first time to the Logan area and I was impressed! Location: Just two blocks from the CTA Blue Line Logan Stop! Interior: Bar- There is a separate Bar across from the concession stand which sells alcoholic beverages. Concession Stand- There is also a concession stand which sells a variety (4) different sizes of popcorns and drinks. Perfect and reasonably priced! They also sell pizza, slushies, a diverse variety of candy, and other drinks and eats. The Theater: Cost- $9.00 on a Friday night for a movie-so reasonable!!!!! (5 Stars for this fact alone!) Seats- No assigned seats-which is nice-the seats are leather, each has a cup holder and moveable arm rest (as if you were on an airplane) and the seats recline! Screen- The screen is enormous and very clear. The sound is perfectly pitched. The Complaint: Arriving only minutes before the movie commenced-the ticket booth was unmanned and a sign said to "purchase movie tickets at the concession stand." Of course there was a line of people buying concessions and tickets-so it took a fair amount of time to purchase both tickets and concessions. It was a Friday night-please, PLEASE hire someone for the ticket booth-it would make things run much more smoothly.

Experience: The theatre is located in the heart of Logan Square. With that said, the business is surrounded with awesome restaurants and cool looking stores all within walking distance. The theater itself was very vintage. Definitely something out of the "movies" lol Staff was friendly and professional. Parking: It seems to be street parking (Free and Paid). Depending the time of day, it may be very difficult to find parking. At the same time, the CTA blue line is very close, so if possible I would suggest taking public transportation. Worth: You cannot beat the prices here (especially if you are a student, military, or a senior citizen). At the same time, you get what you pay for, meaning the screens are smaller than usually (as pictured below), but that personally that did not bother me. Overall, the theater is awesome to look inside! Definitely worth the visit!

This movie theatre reminds me of the small town theatre my mother used to take me to when I was younger, a true blast from the past. Their bar area is super cute, with relatively true to cost cocktails (not over priced) and their service is quick. In addition to just movies, the theatre puts on events such as their: "Open Mic Comedy" every Monday "Movie Trivia Night" every Tuesday and other standalone events that can be found on their website. The interior is enough to come and check out a movie here. Highly recommend!

Hadn't been here in a few years because it's small and doesn't have many screens and the seats aren't in exceptional condition. You can't recline in them. It makes up for all that though in that old school movie charm as far as interior design, movie theater posters from the 70s. In smaller theaters you begin to appreciate what's truly important in the movie going experience.

Ahh, that famous LOGAN sign we've all seen. If you're a northwest Chicagoan, you know this area well and you're very familiar with this historic theatre. Opened in 1915, the Logan Theatre has been a great for the community to view some spectacular movies, new and old, for a much cheaper price than amc. If an old style theatre isn't enough, there's a nice bar and lounge attached to the spot as well. Nicely crafted cocktails on the menu to keep you cozy during your movie. Speaking of cozy, the actual screening rooms are absolutely beautiful. Completely old fashioned sized screen with comfortable lounging chairs to make the experience worthwhile. We saw Deadpool 2 there, and it was just as good as seeing it at an IMAX. I love that they also play some classic movies here as well on certain nights. Definitely a cool twist for a date night. This is the closest theatre to my apartment so I will definitely be returning here often for whatever interesting events they have in the near future.

Logan Theatre is a cute little theatre! I love the themed old time decor that the theatre has! There is a snack bar and bar area. You are able to take your drink into the theatre with you. I have seen some movies here and like the location. I have recently seen 1917 at the theatre. The seat was comfy and there always a good amount of seats in the theatre we were. One downside to the theatre is that I could hear the sound effects from the theatre next door. It was annoying and did take away from the film. The theatre is walkable to the Logan Square Area and it's close to a Blue line train station. Go check out the Logan Theatre if you want to see a movie in the local area!

Best theatre in Chicago. Such a unique experience. Very fun experience. Love the different midnight movies. Always a fun time.

What a gem of a theater. We stopped in for a movie and grabbed some snacks at the bar, and were Ushered in to the small theater. We were greeted with big comfy seats, and a smaller crowd. The theater itself was small and retro. You automatically felt really comfortable and I immediately appreciated the old fashioned decor. Stop in for a great movie experience!

I love having this theater in the neighborhood. So many choices and also has older movies that they show! After the renovation, it is a new place with nice chairs and one of my favorite theaters in Chicago. It also has a bar that I go to a lot. It is the perfect first date spot if you want a quiet spot. The back room has sofas and soft chairs. Most people forget about this room so it isn't packed and nice and relaxing. I have also had an event here and the staff was great to work with! I can't say enough good things about this place. One of my favorite bars and movie theaters.

While we bought tickets to see a movie, we set the obvious to-go boxes down on the counter while ordering the movie tickets. After buying said tickets, we were informed that we would not be allowed in the theater with leftover food. We decided to take the leftovers home and forego the movie, so asked for a refund. The cashier asked for a manager. The manager refused to give us a refund, but, rather, only store credit. We protested that had the cashier informed us about the policy, we would not have bought the tickets in the first place. The Manager refused. The cashier proclaimed ignorance. They essentially robbed us of the cost of the movie because we will not be back! Fuck this place.

This place is so cute it really takes me back! The move selection isn't great but it's expected. I'm always looking out to see if there's a movie I want to watch. Cute date night!

While it is incredibly fun to say we saw Logan in Logan (theatre) at Logan (Square), our movie viewing experience was just OK. Here's the rundown... Pros: TICKETS are affordable. SEATS are comfortable and the armrests come up for optimal snuggles with a loved one during scary parts. VOLUME: stayed within 60 and 90 dB which was great for a theatre as it was loud but we didn't feel like we were sitting in a jet engine. START TIME: was amazing! Only one or two short previews and it started! So refreshing to get that from a movie theatre these days. Cons: THIN WALLS: during the softer sounding scenes of our movie, we could hear the movies to either side of us playing Beauty and the Beast... Not the greatest when you are trying to enter into the depths of the movie you just payed for. BATHROOM: the women's bathroom was right outside our auditorium, but the Men's bathroom was difficult to find all the way by the bar - not close to the auditoriums at all. STAFF: The second this heavy movie ended, the cleanup staff were already clamoring to clean up the auditorium. They were being loud and reaching around people and telling everyone that there was no end-credit scene in the hopes that people would just leave. This was frustrating as it's nice to sit for at least the amount of time the credits roll to process through the movie. Overall it was just an OK experience. I wouldn't go here for any kind of heavy or serious movie again. It will be a while before I give Logan another shot, and certainly not for any serious movie.

Clean theater, bar for adult beverages, friendly staff, clean leather seats (non reclining). They decorated the theater for Halloween...it made our day so fun! Cute vintage looking theater but updated and clean. can't wait to go back! And I live 45 minutes away.

Why are these things always so hit and miss- Had a Groupon that was about to expire- good for 2 tix and a small bag of popcorn. I wanted to use that groupon and settled to see a movie that I probably would have passed on even if it was free on HBO- but went anyway. It was the stale popcorn that made me mad. As we sat and tried eating the popcorn, I returned to the concession stand to ask when that popcorn was made, was it possible it was left from the day before? I was told it is made fresh every two hours. It was stale- The young girl behind the counter, could pretty much care less about what I had to say about it, and could have offered me a new bag, since she was popping new popcorn as I was asking about the stale bag....but no.

I'm a fan of Logan Theater. I visited for the first time last week to watch This Is The End. $7 for a nighttime movie? Uh yes please! The theater is semi-newly renovated and looks great. They keep their website updated so you can always check it out for events, currently playing & upcoming movies. In October they will be playing a ton of scurrrrrry movies! Not unusual for a theater, but it's a freaking ice box up in thurr! They have movie trivia at 8pm on Tuesdays in the Lounge! I MUST go to that one day. My plan in my head is to move to Logan Square in the spring...and then I'll be at this theater a whole heck of a lot!

The New Logan Theatre, I think this should now be named! The renovation is complete, with a new bar and lounge area, opulent decorating, new projectors and comfy seats, and of course slightly higher prices. The 'hood has changed and it's with foresight that the management of the Logan Theatre decided to change with it. Movies are $7 for adults, and popcorn ain't cheap anymore. I'm sure I'll get over it to have first run movies here now! There's a great bar and lounge area, and they have Revolution Brewing beers on tap, and it seemed like people were just gettin' their drink on at the bar, without even seeing a movie! The new hot spot in the new hot neighborhood! Kudos on a job well done, Logan!

Super retro and cozy theatre. Looks like the hotel from AHS season 5, and I love it. Arrive early to pick a good seat, it can get crowded very fast given the fact that the rooms are a bit small.

This cheap second-run movie theater left me with mixed feelings. On the one hand, adult matinees clock in at 6.50, which I don't think can be beat anywhere in Chicago, and especially nowhere close by. They offer a full bar, interesting concessions options (as well as the usual candy/popcorn/nachos), and a cute lounge space. The theater itself is gorgeous and pretty well-preserved. The problem is when you actually go to watch your movie. I found the seats hard and uncomfortable. The screens are a bit small and oddly positioned, so you wind up leaning back REALLY far, which I couldn't do for long periods of time. The screening rooms are in a bit of an odd configuration, so the rooms don't get quite as dark as other theaters. This is a toss-up for me. Although it's cheap, it's not that different price-wise (a few dollars) from the Roosevelt Road ICON or the Davis Theater further north. On the other hand, it's a bit closer to me than either of those. I wouldn't plan on waiting to catch movies here, but I would probably go back if I missed something I wanted to see in theaters.

Such a cool and historic theater and at half the price of your regular big name cineplexes. Love the lobby, concessions, bar/lounge area and the overall look, feel and vibe. The screen is not large and prob considered small by many standards but for someone who goes to maybe six movies per year, it's just fine. Love the lineup of movies as they are always doing re-showings of old and new classics alike.

LOCATION: Very close to the Logan Square stop VENUE: This is a theatre that clearly has traditional roots, with the outside box office and a vintage looking interior. I will say that the theater I was in had a fairly bright exit sign, and because the layout is vintage, when people enter of exit the theatre, the lighting from outside is not masked by clever hallway maneuvering.

Remodeled theater is clean and attractive. To the right as you enter the theater is the concession stand which includes adult alcoholic beverages and seating. I highly recommend the Logan, and you can use the Blue Line to get here easily!

Love this place!!! I have been looking for a great independently owned movie theater. We went to a matinee showing of Friday the 13th for the Horror Movie Madness. It has incredible decorations for Halloween! FYI no outside food and drink and they will ask to look in your bag when checking tickets. Fortunately for us, drinks from Intelligentsia are allowed!

My favorite theater. Seriously this is my favorite theater ever. It is small and intimate nothing extravagant, but lovely and irreplaceable in my eyes. They really got it right when they remodeled this place to it's vintage glory. If I still lived in Chicago I would use this place for my next birthday party. They have a full bar and a lounge area that can be roped off for private events.

My first movie experience was at this thearter. I can still remember the movie, Clash of the Titans. This was back in the 80's. Logan has a very special place in my life and I'm happy that it still stands. The theater has gone through some changes over the years, but only for the better. It's now a brew and view, which is a nice touch for movie goers. The movies are second run and they also have themed movie nights like Ron Burgandy's quotathon, The Blues brothers, and yes even a Grease Sing-a-long , which my wife dragged me to. Thank god for the bar. Some special event viewings are done there as well. So, if your looking for a more intimate movie going experience or a funky movie joint to hang with friends, then this is a great place to start.

This is the most elegant theater in the city. I thought that I had gone back in time to the 1940's, and they might show some clips of how good our boys are doing in the Pacific before my movie started. They have the greatest pretzels you will ever snack on while watching a comedy. The chairs are sufficiently soft and you can move the armrest up to invade the personal space of anyone you're watching the movie with. The temperature is low-to-mid-70's.

This place is small and cramped. Uncomfortable seats. Wasn't very pleased that their free vouchers don't have any restriction about what movies you can see but when we got there they said we can't see a movie that's less than two weeks old. we wanted to use them this exact day since they expired. We were forced to watch a movie we didn't like and left halfway through. It just wasn't very courteous. I'll stick with my reclining seats and $5 movies at amc. Won't be back. This place won't be around much longer anyways.

I cannot speak highly enough of this theater! Generally, the theater itself is exceptional. It has a ton of character and it is run very well: all attendants are on point, awesome bar, great movie selections, comfortable seats and projection quality. All around a place my husband and I like the frequent. Because of these reasons we decided to get married here over Labor day : Literally BEST DECISION EVER. Jen is the event coordinator and from start to finish we knew we were working with a pro- she was super responsive to every question, had everything down to a science in terms of the movie we showed and a time line. We had a fairly small wedding, so we did not have a a planner, which made me nervous but everyone there; Jen, Mike S. and Seth really made sure everything was set prior to our day, then the day of it was seamless.The day of the wedding ran SO smoothly every one of our guests commented that is was such a classy and elegant affair they have never been to anything like it. We did a Gatsby/old hollywood style theme and we didn't even need to do much decorating and everything fell right into place! They were also super accommodating for our 5 piece jazz band, alcohol free options for the cocktail hour and options for guests with food allergies. Again, such a wonderful day, and I cannot stress enough how low-stress it was!! Thank you again Jen & Crew, you are the best!!

WOAH! I grew up coming here before it was renovated and it definitely got an upgrade. Prior to Halloween, I hadn't been here in a few years and last remembered seeing Finding Nemo It's a very cozy theater with a bar, concession stand and lounge area. My friend and I got a drink at the bar and headed over to the lounge area. The bar was full (Halloween), but the lounge area wasn't packed and had very comfortable armchairs + TV's. The theatre room looks very, very different from when I was a kid & teen. The screen is higher, the chairs are more comfortable and everyone is seated in a straight line. Idk if it was because it was Halloween, but the entire room was packed, which I LOVED. The acoustics and screen are way better than before and it's cleaner,too. They raised the prices, but I suppose that comes with the renovation and the fact that I'm an adult now (years have passed). It's still cheaper than Webster or AMC Rosemont, as they play older films. Overall, I was surprised at the quality, but I feel it has lost its down-to-earth feel. I don't suppose it has anything to do with the employees, they were nice, it's probably just the fact that I used to see more families and it used to be like someone's living room in there You win some, you lose some! As someone who grew up in the area, I'll always have a soft spot for this theater and will continue to come!

Would be easier to support the local theater if you could bring your dinner doggie bag in. The no outside food/drink policy is to deter patrons from bringing in a purse full of candy. Had to toss half a dinner to go to the movies. Had no intention of taking out a box of food in the middle of a theater. Not accommodating to date night, dinner and a movie? Staff recommended I put the leftovers in my car, except I walked because I live in the neighborhood and do what I can to shop the small businesses. In addition to forcing me to be wasteful the lines to get in the auditorium were poorly managed, those who arrived early weren't given priority to seats and the ticket taker was paying little to no attention to anything going on.

Great Neighborhood Movie Theater! This movie theater has been around forever and a day. The Vibe of this movie theater is Vintage at it's best. The Lounge and the Bar area alone is Killer. You have a full bar available, where you can grab a crafty cocktail, and you have a wide range selections of beers to choose from. You have the option to hang out in the Lounge Area as you are waiting for the movie, the Lounge is absolutely adorable. If you are starving, you can grab ice cream, pizza, and/or chicken tenders. I decided to grab a fresh batch of popcorn. Top Notch Popcorn! Seriously when you walk into this movie theater you will feel like you are traveling back in time and you will remember why you loved going to the movies in the first place. The truth is movie theaters like this do not exist. In fact writing about it makes me sad because I no longer live here locally, and I grew up with this movie theater literally. So to see all the amazing changes years later.......Speechless! This theater has a special place in my heart. It will have one in yours too....

After seven years of living in Chi, I finally made it here and so glad I did! This theater is small, retro, welcoming and the exact opposite of those huge mega theaters downtown. All movie tickets are $7 for shows that start before 6. Theater is very accessible from the Logan Square Blue Line. I really enjoyed my night here last night. They have a bar/lounge to hang out in before/after shows and it's an ideal date night as there are so many new restaurants popping up on the same street as the theater. Be sure to arrive on time as there are no previews.

For what this place offers, it's a great price. Yes the theater is older, but who can beat tickets that are under $10/ tickets now a days. I get it, the newer theaters that offer all the other amenities you're paying for the new theater seating or even reclining seats or the state of the art surround sound or the IMAX experience. BUT if you're just looking to catch a flix and don't want to shell out $50 bucks just to watch a movie and have some popcorn, I'd totally recommend this place. The theater is definitely older, but it has a charm about it, they keep it super clean and the people are super friendly. They may not have all the movies that are out in theater since they only have a few screens, but if they do I'd definitely go watch it here. There is one thing that was a bit of a nuisance. We sat towards the back where the doors are and the exit sign is REALLY bright which was a bit annoying and didn't realize it until the movie started. Also, the chairs are older and they squeak, we had one patron that was just moving and rocking in her chair the whole movie, almost got up and made a situation out of it LOL. I know they renovated this theater which they did a good job on, just wish they would have fixed some of the chairs or greased them properly.
