The seats leave a little to be desired, but for $1.99 (there's a cup of pennies at the box office ) it's a steal for second-run films . Enjoy the pre-movie Wurlitzer organ on Friday & Saturday nights .
The organ and the harp play a show on Saturday. Movies are cheap here! Also next to an ice cream place for the kids. Has free public parking place in the back.
Fun Sat sing-along w/Christmas music .Too bad people around us & staff in the lobby continued to talk during the movie . If you need to check your phone, at least have the courtesy to step outside.
Oldtime classic movie theatre with second runs, pls classics, etc. Super affordable and family friendly .
It's a blast from the past. Enjoyed it very much. Will be back for sure. Saw the Incredible Mr. Limped, with Don Knots
We love the historical atmosphere and one-of-a-kind personality that The Byrd offers - It takes us back to simpler times! Big fans!
Best $2 spent at local spot for a great movie . Family friendly . Feedthebyrd.org
A must stop for anyone who'd like to see a movie in a early 1900's style theater.
Price increased for the first time in 20 years from $2 to $4. Still the best movie value in RVA!
The Byrd is a beautiful and amazing establishment. Keep fighting the good fight against the megaplexes! Thank you!
Bring cash, its all they accept. Movies are super cheap and fairly recent. Snacks & beverages are expensive , as always at any cinema .
This theatre is the definition of genuine and authentic .
A must-visit spot, especially when friends and family are visiting from out of town :)
$2 and equally cheap concessions. A must-do for anyone in RVA (if only just once). Some great midnight features too!
The seats are dreadful and if you stand too long in the aisle your shoes may permanently stick to the floor. The rest of the place is awesome.
Love the old time feel of the place and their emphasis on community events
This theatre is BEAUTIFUL! But as we left the manager yelled obscenities at my boyfriend who tried to take a picture of the beautiful space. Not a good experience!
If you have a living social deal, you must stand in two lines . One line to redeem deal and another line to enter theater. Pack your patience & expect to wait awhile.
Sweet talk the staff into letting you go up to the balcony where the seats are much more comfortable . Go on Saturday to see Bob Gulledge playing the Mighty Wurlitzer which is worth the $1.99 by itself Read more
Rumor has it there's a ghost that haunts the women's bathroom ...
A really beautiful theater that is extremely affordable !
Great place to see Oscar worthy movies for only $2. However, I gotta warn you that the seats may be uncomfortable.
Can't best a $2 movie and a live organ player instead of previews
Saturday nights here are the best! Can't beat the price...and the charm! :)
Love this place, need to take my little one there to see it real soon!
Be sure to come early! The good seats go fast. Also the best time to come is Saturday nights . You'll see why!
$1.99 movies in a vintage theatre, saturday nights has the amazing wurlitzer.
Movies for $2 in an amazing old school theater!
This is the most beautiful movie venue I've ever been to.
Gotta love a $2.00 movie !
Visit the haunted balcony , if you're luck enough to end up here a night it's open!
For the price, the place is great.
Seats are falling apart and somewhat uncomfortable; watch out for loose springs, sticky spots on the floor and suspicious stains in the seat
Get there on a weekend night and donate to the foundation (select popular movies only) to get to sit in the balcony !
Very unique Turkish marble lines the walls!
During the holidays the Mighty Wurlitzer plays Christmas Carols
If you need to use the bathroom bring a flash light.
love the old fashion feel of this place
The best place to come see movies in RVA!
Don't bring your screaming babies to an adult movie . Get a babysitter- they should be in bed anyway.
Don't forget to get Living Social deal
Nice n cool watching looney toons
French Film Festival
RVA Classic
Bring a pillow to sit on.
Check your seat before you sit down. Ripped my jeans on a seat with a spring sticking out last Sunday at the VaIFF...
More yummy popcorn please.
SSSSSICK. Someone needs parental guidance!
The chandelier is beautiful
Cheap date night !
