Ryan StempleAugust 7, 2014Iconic Logan Square hub for cheap movies with full bar. A good selection of craft beers on tap, and there are often fun themed cocktails to go along with their classic film screenings.

AngelaNovember 20, 2014A nice movie theater if you want to try a place outside of your traditional movie theater. This place has lots of character & is filled with Logan square hipsters. Can't go wrong with $4 PBR's eitherUpvote6Downvote
Wael HazzaziAugust 19, 2018Really cool experience, seats are comfortable and the screen looks great once the movie starts

FLee Queen of TartsJuly 7, 2012Intelligentsia coffee, beers on tap, full bar, chocolate covered bananas along w/all the standard movie snacks. Great admission prices also make it a great choice. Support indie theaters!Upvote6Downvote
Galen HamesAugust 21, 2014This is a beautifully restored theatre with a great staff. It's convenient to the #76 & #56 buses, as well as the Logan Square Blue Line station.:-)Upvote1Downvote
Christina BradwayOctober 17, 2016Old theater updated for digital that shows first- and second-run movies. Cool movie poster ambiance and full bar in the lounge. Hipster crowd can be loud, obnoxious and high as kites.UpvoteDownvote- Head to the bar, yes I said bar. You can take your drinks into theater with you! Also monday nights at 8 is Comedy night in the lounge. Tuesdays started Movie Trivia night and movies change a lot.Upvote2Downvote
Kelli SullivanNovember 17, 2013The Logan Theatre is right off the Logan Square Blue Line stop in the heart of Logan Square. TIP: catch a matinee and save some money while seeing a popular new film at this unique theatre.UpvoteDownvote
What an awesome revamp! The lounge itself is enough to go. Decor reminds me of Twin Peaks red room, haha. Great beers on tap, good specials, and I had a huge cheap delicious Sailor Jerry cocktail.Upvote3Downvote

Time Out Chicago KidsJanuary 13, 2012This neighborhood theater serves Diana's Bananas, a chocolate-covered frozen banana on a stick ($4.50), in plain or covered in peanuts. Maybe they're so delectable because they're made in Chicago?Upvote1Downvote
