Nicely curated films and spectacularly curated snacks at this indie theater . There's a date friendly bistro upstairs and the smaller of the two screening rooms is pine scented, no joke

Joe D

Balcony seats are about 2/3rds the way up the height of the screen and about equal to the row H/I/J compared to the lower level. Solid viewing location

Cherry Coke

The bar and lounge area is fantastic. Comfortable seating areas and very spacious - it's a great late night date spot if you're looking for ambience without having to shout at each other.

Seats are very comfortable ! Huge screen, any seat is perfect. Great atmosphere at the bar/restaurant upstairs. They’ll let you bring coffee down to the theatre-not alcohol though.

Andy Jackson

Their curation of films are the best! From anime to documentaries Metrograph shows it all. I recommend Metrograph to almost every friend I have. So good.

Jeff Petriello

Beautiful theater , with thoughtful, excellent programming. The concessions are eclectic , delicious and cheaper than the big box movie theaters . Just go, even if you haven't heard of what's playing.

Devon Darrow

Metrograph is a wonderful gem. With a beautiful cocktail bar and restaurant , a retro-elegant vibe, and movie theaters to see acclaimed and classic films , I highly recommend this for any date night .

Dean Silfen

It is one of my favorite places to see a film . Great cocktails in the upstairs as well !

Newly opened cinema with healthy snack options and a restaurant and bar upstairs. Very eclectic selection of films , and very few showings.

Delicious burger . They pulled it off the dinner menu , but you can still order it (and it's the best dinner dish they have.)

Total gem, tucked away on Ludlow St. in the LES, which has a constantly revolving set of movies from classic indie flicks to throwback blockbusters.

We went for drinks there, great place to dine late at night, better reserve in advance.
