Alec BernalNovember 1, 2014Impeccable sound in the Bow Tie Chelsea Cinema's auditoriums and the select renovated auditoriums have very comfortable seats and leg room. One of the best theater going experiences I've had in NYC!
Natalie VJanuary 21, 2017Nice theater with reserved seating, which is always a plus here in crowded NYC
Sam SNovember 28, 2015There are no recliner chairs here but the seats are comfortable, the prices good, and the movie selection great; everything from blockbusters to independent films.
Dave SilverstoneJanuary 8, 2012Hedda Lettuce hosts Cinema Classics on Thursdays - get there early (there's a line!) for some truly great old movies at this fun, campy local tradition. Bonus: Rocky Horror midnight shows on weekends!
Eduardo RamirezMay 30, 2019Comfortable seats that are big and recline far back. Plus there’s plenty of space in front of the seat so you can leave when you realize you’re in the wrong theatre without bothering anyone.
Post-Covid, this theater got one of the best upgrades in the city. It was already a quality destination, but now there’s alcohol, milkshakes, free Wi-Fi, and seat and design remodeling. Check it out.
I love the comfy reclining seats--but not if you're in one of the first few rows--the seats don't recline enough for me to be able to look up at the screen. Had to tilt my head to the side.
Reserved seating, comfortable seats, great popcorn and somehow it's never super full so the whole experience is easy and comfortable. Fav in the city
Saw LA LA Land here - fun place to see a movie and you can book your seat in advance! The medium popcorn was huge so I recommend going with the small.
Katy ZackDecember 21, 2015Being able to reserve seating in advance makes going to the movies easier and more relaxed. Plus, they've got so many flavors of sweet and savory popcorn!
courtney schielaMarch 6, 2016Love this movie theater. $8 Sunday morning movies and the staff is very helpful!
Emilie FuttermanJanuary 4, 2015Best theater in Manhattan. Big comfy seats, and they're assigned so you aren't looking blindly for a place to sit.
AngelaMarch 29, 2013I love this theatre- total throw back with no bells and whistles but a really nice staff. They have someone greet you at the start of every movie- always cheer them on!
PaddyApril 16, 2016Overall it's good but there were some problems during our visit. The place is nice and modern but our theatre was FILTHY. Popcorn and spilled drinks everywhere. No sound until we complained.
Automated reclining leather seats here are comfortable. Just PLEASE sit in your allocated seat
This is my favorite theater. It's never crowded, it always has movies I want to see and it's comfy.
Anuj MathurMay 30, 2016buy tix ahead on fandango and reserve your seat (which BTW is a wide, comfortable leather chair with plenty of leg room).
Upgraded leather seats with wide arm and leg space. It's better than being on an airplane! Movie matinees are $8 any show before noon.
Gabriel HayesApril 26, 2016The Jack & Harry's Gourmet Popcorn is awesome. Enjoyed the signature Tribeca flavor: Truffle, Parmesan & Rosemary.
Here's my favorite spot for festivals cause they open the doors early to ticket holders, dont make them wait on the line like other theatres.- ElizabethNovember 24, 2015Super clean, friendly staff. Come on a weekday afternoon -- it's blissfully empty except for a handful of elderly locals.
- courtney schielaFebruary 1, 2016Sit in the back row. You can put your feet up on a the railing. Seats don't recline but are very spacious
Great clean theater with seat selection and awesome concessions. Caramel popcorn. Guys. Caramel.
Seats are extra wide with extra leg room. If you lift up the arm rest, you basically have your own love seat. Ah-mazing.
Reserve seating. Has a seating area at the lobby. Seating inside is very comfortable. Clean!
This theater is hands down the best in the city. I love that you can pick your seats!- Beautiful, newly renovated theatre (still working), but at $17 a seat, it’s too pricey to watch a movie there.
Yosi CasJanuary 26, 2011We have our ups and downs, but we still care for our guests, unlike other cinemas I've went to. :) <3 we try to decorate a stand for a movie and have some displays around the theatre, to keep it alive
Zaira TrujilloFebruary 19, 2015Super comfortable seats and gourmet popcorn if you want to switch it up
Nicole SerratoreFebruary 3, 2016Like the choose your seat options. Saves time. Cheaper early morning movies.
Carey SmithNovember 14, 2012loe this theatre. love the location. Make sure u get there early to buy ya tickets cause they go fast most times.
Super comfortable leather recliners and assigned seating!
This is a relatively good theater to get seats. The machines inside the lobby usually don't have a line. Event companies conduct special screenings here with gift bags.
You can now reserve seats letting you arrive just on time.
Strange management decisions now have staff making dull announcements before each movie and checking ticket stubs outside each auditorium. Good use of your workforce, fellas.
Great neighborhood theater! Come here to support independent businesses (and watch movies!)
Make sure you buy your tickets in advance and get here early on optimum tuesdays.. trust me, or else you'll have to break your neck and sit up front lol
The Pop BagMay 2, 2012Seeing "The Avengers" this Friday evening? Be sure to stop on the second floor for samples of Body Armor Drink, Valducci's Pizza, & comic books from Manhattan Comics! Also try your hand at trivia!
This the best theater! Everyone here is nice and friendly. Great place to see a movie.
What a comfortable theater!All they need to do is upgrade their check-in process and accept electronic tickets
Ohilikechickn .February 24, 2018Disappointing location for Cinepolis (comparing to west coast and int'l). Really dirty theaters, bathrooms, halls. Equipment was not functioning properly. Reserved Seating is the only positive tip.
Recent remodel makes this the nicest movie theater I've been to in Manhattan.
Huich InJanuary 12, 2015The most comfortable theater in NYC. Lots of leg room and huge leather seats.

"This is my favorite place for inexpensive food and drink in NYC. Onion loaf is tasty and the chili burger goes down nicely with a frozen drink. Not fine dining but hits the spot with a drink or two."
