This is a movie theatre for movie lovers. It's no-frills with a carefully-curated selection of indie flicks , documentaries and new releases. And they serve beer and wine .

Creative Loafing Atlanta

Before he was Midtown Art Cinema's general manager, packing its concessions with excellent craft beers from breweries such as Oskar Blues & Founders, Kevin Ward grew up in Columbus, Ohio. Read more

Plan ahead and order concessions way before the movie starts. Some hot items like egg rolls and pretzels can take 10-15 minutes to cook. With several orders in a single oven, there may be a long wait .

Josh Weiss

Good spot for independent/foreign movies . It is quirky and authentic and a bit dated but better than the mall theater. Great beer selection . Arrive early as concession/beer line gets long.

Vanessa M

My tip is bring a big purse and stash your own snack and drinks or take a financial raping at the concessions . PS Yes to extra nacho cheese if you do get them there

Robert Miller

This is a well run theatre that shows mainstream, documentaries and foreign films . A nice, well-behaved crowd. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Allison Leach

Older seating in this theater but you can not beat the independent films they show or the fact that you can enjoy your viewing with an adult beverage . This theater is charming and centrally located.

If you get wine , drink some out of your cup before you put it in the holder unless you want wine on your shoe .

Don't talk during the movie and go ahead and open up your noisy food packaging before movie starts.
