Comfy , wider seats with drink holders downstairs but view may be better from upstairs as screen is higher than usual. Really a matter of personal preference. Outside food allowed.
One of the only theatres in Toronto that's licensed!!! Kick back and enjoy a beer or glass of wine while you watch your flick :)
The perfect way to spend an evening. We should all be so proud that our city has such a lively cultural atmosphere. Visit this incredible theatre and SUPPORT HOT DOCS!
For best viewing head to the balcony as the main floor is below the screen
Deceiving from the outside - old but amazingly clean inside and quite spacious plus seats are quite new, too.
Excellent old skool movie theatre. A throwback to what was once the norm. Old style seating, a balcony , they even have a stage in front of the screen. Very cool, and hip place to see movies . Great Read more
The only decent seats are on the main floor anywhere from the third row from the back to the twelfth. Anywhere else and the screen is cut off or you'll have to strain your neck to see the film .
Home of our Vanguard and documentary films , we think our audience will love seeing smart, hip Festival films in a grand neighbourhood cinema .
Need more room? There are extra-wide seats on the ends of some rows in the balcony . On the main level, arm rests can be moved up out of the way.
Did you know that this building was originally built in 1913 and then demolished and rebuilt in 1941? Come visit us during Doors Open on May 25-26th, 2013.
Amazing indie movie theater where you can drink beer while watching!
Today’s movie My Generation was very good but reminded me of many of the things I missed out on.
Beware the balcony . They serve alcohol at the bar downstairs and by the end of a movie drunk idiots are a chattin' at the screen ;-)
Lovely old theatre that shows great independent films and double-features.
Food trucks will be outside this venue from September 7-16 for the Toronto International Film Festival . Grab a gourmet snack before or after you catch a film .
Love the Bloor, and new documentary programming, but having the screen so high is a colossal design failure.
For ultra comfy seats , hit up the first floor. For optimum viewing , nab the front row in the balcony .
Great neighbourhood cinema , old, bit worn, but charming, always a good line-up of films and fun theme evenings (Rocky Horror, Oscars evening, etc).
Awsome throwback, exciting and new adding a lot of character to the neighbourhood!
Great seats. Especially on thw balcony .
Good popcorn . Lower seats much more bum friendly with more leg room.
Theater staff are really helpful and friendly
.. and licenced too - beer/wine at concessions. Take that Montreal :)
Awesome place to watch ????????. #oldschool

Great seats. Good beer selections ...

They've done a great job with the renovations!
Go see a movie you've already seen a million times before but never on the big screen . Popcorn will only enhance the experience. Read more
Beer (and wine )!!
checking in for feb 3 screening
A serious renovation - but seats are not very wide. Prepare to rub elbows.
$5 weekday matinees!
Employees shouldn't be mayors of Foursquare.
Avoid the balcony , if possible.

Great Rep-Cinema with lots of unique programming!! Go for the VHS movie nights, go back for Kid Power afternoons! - Sean Connors
Great lunch menu in the Canteen. Wifi too. The Sweet Potato Fries from the Appetizer Menu are amazing! - Mark Crone
Best place in the Cineplex family to get popcorn. I'm not sure why or if the recipe is different but I know a couple of people who swear by it - Aaron Brown
Classic pub environment with leather seats and all, but the roasted chickpea salad was surprisingly delicious! - Ozge Y
The chicken Brie sandwich is delicious and reasonably priced. The dipping sauce for the fries is also very good. - Devon B
Japanese tapas style dishes, great and fun spot. Make sure you order sake bombs :) - Khanh Ly
