Reviews of The Screening Room (Movie Theater)

Albert M

Good place for non mainstream films.

Helena Cheu

The staff are super friendly and nice. The popcorn is great (and not over priced). The seats are comfortable and they are taking good covid-related precautions. We had a lovely date!

buff cabbage

If you ever wanted to experience film the way it was meant to be seen I would highly recommend this place. They have movie festivals that feature cult classic films new and old. Popcorn with real butter and they don't use plastic straws. It's really a hipsters delight!

Amr ElSharkawy

The small size seating with the big screen has it's effect to get you living the movie. The presence of the creator/actor/director and one of the actresses is something you don't get in regular movie theaters.

Adams

Great films and an awesome venue

Apple “Orange” Craig

This place is fabulous. They always have wonderful films, and the snack bar is amazing. A visit to The Screening Room feels like a real night out :) I highly recommend it.

James Dooley

Wonderful cinema! Very clean and modern inside. Love the selection of films they offer. Love the posters in the lobby.

Jack Hume

Actually THREE rooms with screens (one per room).

Natalya O

Love this place. Gives you old times movie theater vibes. Theatres are small and cozy but chairs are very comfy!

Jeff Berthelette

What a cute fun place! When we arrived we could tell that they really appreciated cinematography, and the drinks and snacks were a fraction of what you would pay at the theater. Highly recommend! We will definitely be going back soon!

Stephen Hiscock

Great Indie films!

Nancy McGarvie

Great customer service. Really nice intimate theatre. I highly recommend.

Patrick Burke

Great place to see a movie!

Maureen Powers

The Screening Room is a wonderful venue with three screens and comfortable seating showing films we should all see.

Adrian Michael Kelly

One of the best independent cinemas around, and along with Novel Idea, a saving grace of Kingston.

Rodney Carter

The best films and real butter on the popcorn!

Linda Fraser

Love the Screening Room and their tea in real mugs!

Hannah Ellsworth (PostShyHannah)

A local favourite, this family owned theater tends to screen a lot of art house films and holds many events throughout the year, including The Rocky Horror Picture Show dress-up event and the Kingston Film Festival.

Georgene MacDonald

Cinematic gem in the heart of downtown Kingston with superior accessibility thanks to the recent renovations. Excellent concessions are far less expensive than the big movie plexes. Buttered popcorn is fabulous and there is a good selection of drinks. The accessible washroom is quite possibly the largest I have found anywhere and could accommodate large mobility devices and care assistants with ease. While everyone is lined up in Toronto for TIFF, you can see first rate films here with no hassle and low prices. The excellent website has detailed information that anticipates any questions you might have about parking, prices and access. The staff are extremely pleasant and helpful. Just remember - it is CASH ONLY.

Em&Em

Cozy theatre! Would recommend!

Christine Bertrim

My escape from the city, wonderful service and the best popcorn in town. A must place for anyone to visit.

Finn Long

My favourite place in Kingston for a movie. Bring cash or withdraw from the nearby Scotiabank and TD.

Chasel J. Weng

many good award movies are available. Recommend for everyone who loves watching movies!!!

Aaron Visser

Love the renovated theatres.

Meredith H.

Needs popcorn.

Ronnie Sly

Amazing films. Screens aren't huge but definitely bug enough for the theatre experience. Great staff too.

Peter Hudson

Excellent staff and good prices

Jonathon Reed

Awesome local theatre. Sometimes features an eclectic line-up of films, but there's usually something that will grab your interest. Indie films, documentaries, cult classics. A film festival or two. Downside is you can't pre-order tickets so it's first come, first serve. Drinks are expensive. Popcorn gets as much butter as you want.

Jade

such a cute and intimate theatre! love the affordability, it makes me want to watch movies more. 10/10 recommend to anyone

Alisa Hunnersen

The Screening room is wonderful. The staff is great and so are the movies. It's a super venue

William Wilson

Not a bad place. Friendly, respectful, and a cool place to chill and watch a movie.

Jacob Dey

Really cheap, really good movies

Len Whalen

So happy that The Screening Room is gaining such a following. Great experience...feels like stepping back in time but with current technology. Super friendly, personal service. Bravo.

Jay

I love how intimate the screening room feels. Small, quiet. You don't get those typical "big screen" annoyances from others; loud abnoxious etc. Typically attracts a great fan base, so I've never felt interrupted during a film. The screening room experience comes across as one finding a hidden gem in Kingston. If you're an indie film fan, or just looking to change things up - you can't go wrong here.

John William

Was withholding the fifth star earlier due to the lack of films being screened. With the new renovations the place looks fantastic, and with the added rooms more can be screened. Prices are good. Film choice is great (and I hope that carries on past Oscar season). Didn't like how the cupholders reclined with the chairs in the 'metro theatre', but that's a nitpick.

Hal Cain

Always a pleasure to see a movie at The Screening Room. Now showing some first-run films, in addition to arts and classics. Comfortable seating, quality digital audio / video, eco-conscious concession, and friendly staff!

Ajay S

With the recent renovations, the place looks (but more importantly feels) sharp and very much like a place to watch "films". The tickets are a little pricer than larger theatres, but the concessions are cheaper so it often works out to a similar price. Though an annual membership pays itself off very quickly with even mildly-frequent visits. Staff are extremely friendly, welcoming, and homely as well. It's a real treasure for Kingston to have.

Emma Lo

You won't expect the supee comfy chair from Cineplex, but here thr staffs are super friendly and they have a great film selection at this local theatre.

Marley

Great little two screen theater with good ticket prices, especially for students.

Alison WRight

I find this place so charming. The staff are all nice and the movies are selected to suite a varied audience.

Loriann Ierullo

Small town feel, great start time, and popcorn is awesome

Michael Harris

Far and away the best theater in Kingston.

T Schneider

Love the new look and experience in this updated Theatre

Rob Watson

Went my first movie in 2 years. How great was that! Can't wait to go back. Always a good selection. Love it!

Rich

Went there today and LOVED IT!!!! such a cool little comfortable theater, cool movies and awesome service!!!

Holly Whimsy

Took my dad here to see a movie and I love that they serve tea in a coffee mug! Great sustainable thinking and cute movie theatre for that intimate and unique experience!

Henry Linda

Fabulous independent theatre. Great films, staff and vibe. I just wish The Roxy cinema wasn't quite so drafty in the winter and that somehow, although I realize this is not the cinema's fault really, that the patrons here could stop talking through the movies. I don't understand it. Never seems to be a problem at the big mainstream cinemas. Why do people feel welcome to chatter at our lovely independent theatre?

Kim Gratton

Kingston Film Festival is held at this location, renovated and cozy.

Gilles Galarneau

Nice and cozy

Sean Liddle

Love this place. Nice screens, small cinemas, GREAT popcorn, price is right too. Its where you will find the good artsy and independent films that you normally would have to rent, buy or seek out online. Excellent. highly recommended. BUT NOTE.. no advance sales. Show up early to get tickets. Escalator does not work in building but there IS an elevator.

Colleen Mersereau

Not very busy. Excellent prices and customer service. A smaller quaint type of theater.

Lisa Figge

The best movie house around!????????????

Leif Gruenwoldt

Love the renovated theatres, a real gem.

Elena S

It's nice inside of the place and the bathrooms are really clean. I think the location is kind of hard to find though and the place is cash unfortunately.

Damon Crossfield

Great independent theater. Very reasonable ticket and snack prices. Friendly staff. Curated film selections with newer releases and retro picks.

Fernando/Ferdinand Santos

The Screening Room is a Kingston gem! It is not only our only downtown cinema but also a treasure trove for alternative and independent and foreign films!

Robert Price

Loved it! Great theatres, great movies. I look forward to going here regularly.

Chris B.

I've been going here for years, seen they renovated looks really good. Small theater (a good thing) and play a spectrum of movies from off new to foreign (even subtitled) to classics to cults. 100% recommend. Cash only. Perfect place to bring a date.

J Murphy

Lovely retro feel that you can't get anywhere else in this town! Wish they still made fresh pies!

Jill Mulveney

The best place ever ✨

Theodore Brant

Seats aren't comfortable and overpriced for over hyped indie films that my mom likes

Julissa Echeverria

It is a very good cinema, clean...comfortable sits. My only issue was that it is cash only. Next time I will bring more cash for the pop corn. Lol

Jeremy Cohen

Definitely the best movie theatre in Kingston, potentially the best in Canada, amazing vibes and the renos really do the place justice. Go support!!

sandra mahoney

Love seeing more obscure movies here. A good "family" run theatre. Good value. Great to watch a movie with a big mug of tea.

Anna Chicory

Great cozy space to watch a film!

Cody Higgins

Love this place! They are always playing fantastic movies. It's just what downtown needs, and I hope it stays forever!

Mike Green

Oh my goodness. If you haven't been to The Screening Room yet do yourself a favour and go. This is one of the most wonderful places Downtown Kingston. The owner clearly cares about movies so much - the member's card is a bargain, with the new renovations there are more screens, nice washrooms, and an elevator (yay accessibility!). They also serve mugs of tea and fresh popcorn! What are you waiting for?

Mark Donovan

I was the only one in the theater. There was something wrong with the projector. I stayed there for two hours and the movie never started, so I left. Since I had snuck in, I wasn't too upset.

Eileen Firth

Great local vibe. Had all the oscar movies. Concessions stand was great and the coffe mugs were great.

Cameron McIver

Such a cool place, love supporting this business, love the local vibes. Very reliable and relaxed, cheap popcorn and snacks (compared to other theaters) and only plays 2-3 trailers before each movie! Cannot day enough nice things about this place

Zachary Masson Crocker

Great atmosphere!

Emma Ryan

Very friendly staff and great films!

Matt Brak

Always at least a few great movies to catch here at all times

Camilla Willings

Really miss seeing great movies here

Rj Raftis

Excellent selection of movies. Modern atmosphere.

Bryan Scott

A great little theater that shows current movies along with Classic Movies. A great little gem downtown Kingston.

sc corea

Great experience, friendly staff, very cool atmosphere. Love the architecture

LANMAC

Best theatre in all of Kingston!

Doug Gray

Great movies and great price

Belinda Scilley

Beautifully renovated space showing interesting and eclectic movies as well as blockbuster films

Amos Navarre Hebb

Cute little place with really interesting shows, might be a good idea to show up a bit early though to get seats for sure, they sell out all the time!

James Kerr

Great spot in the centre of town for alternative films.

Thalib Nowshir

Affordable, clean and pleasant cinematic experiences to be had

Jessica Parent

Cute little movie theatre that is reasonably priced. Great popcorn with free butter. Just be aware it is cash only.

Paul R

This refurbished "art house" cinema is a wonderful theatre. Interesting films, reasonable prices, and comfortable.

Jenna

Excellent little theater. They offer free real butter on the popcorn and a free glass of water. The tickets and food were all very reasonably priced, I think a large popcorn was $6. Comfy chairs and good selection of movies. I would definitely return.

Brittany Lazar

Love this place! Great popcorn and always has a great selection of movies showing.

Chris Rudmin

Best independant theatre.

Robert Switzer

A terrific theatre. Great prices. Fantastic selection of movies. Everything is just right indeed.

Philippe Rivet

Stylish retro interior, diverse selection of films, comfortable but not overly plushy seating, and properly configured sound make this independent theatre one of the best I've had the distinct pleasure of attending. My favourite part was drinking water from an actual glass rather than the wasteful plastic cups that the big chains force you to slurp from. Will most definitely be returning for another such experience (saw The Summer of Soul this time) - 10/10 would recommend to any cinephile

Cath Hyett

The Screening Room has come a long way!

Marcus Ho

Nice small theater, very inexpensive and very good popcorn.

David Berman

Hot tea in a ceramic mug, real butter on your popcorn, and great art house movies. A local treasure.

Liz Martin

I love having an indie theatre downtown! Please keep bringing in arthouse & foreign films to provide an alternative to the mainstream blockbusters elsewhere in town.

Jennie Marshall

The Screening Room is a peaceful alternative to Big Box Movie Theatres. It is locally owned, and is a wonderful addition to Kingston's downtown community. The Screening Room shows Current Movies that play at the Odeon, or Ciniplex. In addition, it screens facinating movies and documentaries that do not screen commercially. This is what makes the Screening a cut above Big Box Theatre productions. Also, staff are welcoming, making the customer feel right at home. It is a cash only establishment.

Gabriel Fedorko

Small movie theatre downtown Kingston. It's location in impeccable but other Ban that I don't really get the hype of this place... movies are still $12 cash only. Cheap movie day is a better deal! Still, can't beat the location. Seats are okay. Probably wouldn't be my first choice for a movie theatre in the future.

Dan

Remember to bring cash for concession. Nice little place it's not like the big theatres with reclining chairs and everything so don't be expecting that. Parts were under construction so I'm not sure regularly but doesn't seem wheelchair friendly at the moment.

Aprajita Sarcar

Support local film theatres. It has a very good selection of films every week.

Jordan Prentice

We saw the room

Jan Hofmann

This was a very special night with a very special person. They introduced me to this theater it should be better advertised. Recommended!

shannon griggs

Love this place. Great staff

Bandido

Good cinema... Good people... GO!!!!

Przemek Jalowski

Nice atmosphere and clean, prices comparable to most theatres.

Chris Haley

Gem. Unassuming feel with independent films and popcorn made in coconut oil. Yum.

A Gh

One of Kingston GEMS, with selective films collections range from vintage to up to date (2020). The nice staff are following the rules of restricting the numbers and along the hour extremely proper sanitary cleaning which allow audience to enjoy films in a safe comfy envirnoment during this Covid time. This place reminds me of Villa Borguese Cinema in ROME; little cute cinema with lovely ambience ????

Hilary Genge

It was great I have never been it was my first time. I will certainly be back.

Ryan Solomon

It's great! The Rescue was amazing

Alba de Monroy

Nice cinema. Thanx.

Matt Grills

Hype. It’s a piece of history, an experience, it’s modern, there’s real butter. Hype. You get to see things that aren’t marvel films but you can also see marvel films. Go. Hype. That’s three hypes and if you don’t get the hype then go again until you do. Audiences are engaged and they as a business are so engaged in the community. I cannot praise this place enough. Whether you are a local or a tourist ya gotta check it out. One suggestion, use coffee mugs without handles so they can fit in the cup holders please!

Cleah Bunting

I love the screening room! The atmosphere is really laid back yet professional. The choice of movies are fantastic! Everyone there is a movie buff. I'd like to see once in awhile a classic film...maybe they don't do as well? But The Maltese Falcon or Dial Nine for Murder would be cool on those screens. Or a Game of Thrones night? Not sure if they would be allowed to do that, but on the larger screens would be wicked.

Dan Tassone

Always has a great selection of contemporary independent movies with a few older cult favorites throughout the month. The staff is incredibly friendly and clearly put a lot of work into the theater. This is one of my favorite spots in Kingston! Reelout Film Fest is an annual highlight

Andrew N

Good place. Friendly staff. Get a membership, it's worth it.

Evan Woodley

Great movies and the concessions are actually reasonably priced! Definitely keep tabs on what is playing here.

Thomas Vaughan-Johnston

One of my favorite places in Kingston. Excellent range of interesting indie films and a generous helping of "big" Hollywood releases. Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Student discounts. What's not to love?

Karl Tsekrekos

Great movies with that old time, small theatre feel!

Jean Jeffrey

Best movie theatre in Kingston!

Renka Gesing

What a lovely theatre for seeing good, no-Cineplex movies.

Pearl Wang

Friends staff that keeps the theatre rooms very clean. The price for tickets and snacks are beyond reasonable. Such a gem!

Hilary Wollis

Fantastic independent cinema! Shows a wide range of films and docs, 3 screens, lots of daytime screenings, adults $8 per movie if you buy a $10 annual membership

Alistair B

Wonderful little independent theatre. Great seats, nice staff and a generally good movie going experience. Way better than the big guys.

Tessa C

It's nice

Kelby Paquette-Anderson

A great cinema to support, always great selection of films and the staff are incredibly kind. The place is always spotless as well.

Ian M. Fraser

Renovations make the place welcoming... recommended

Jessica Beardsley

This art house theatre shows movies that might not be on your radar but should be. The prices for admission and food are reasonable and despite the small size of rhetoric theatres it still provides a cinematic experience especially for these smaller movies. I really enjoyed my experience. The staff are friendly. Make sure you bring cash this is a CASH ONLY theatre.

Nicolas R-D

perfect. great experience

Malcolm MacPherson

Wonderful alternate cinema! Creative selection of movies! No trailers before the movies! I will not go to chain cinemas like Cineplex! Too much advertising and marketing before you actually see the movie! The staff are friendly and well-informed! The venue is creative and extremely well-run and clean and comfortable with good air quality! Highly recommend!

Rob McLellan

Great theater. Community vibes!

Ilie Cristian

Good location great service nice movie selection. Needs little renovation but they are on the right path.

Tayson Ingersoll

Great and affordable theater! I'm a film lover and felt right at home at this theater. If you love movies, check this place out

Paul Beth Vreugdenhil

So busy! Great movies!

Rysia Andrade

It's great to support your local movie theatre and they never show the blockbuster garbage, just the indie flicks you watch to feel superior to your friends

Maggie Sutherland

Art house cinema showing films you can't find in chain cinemas. Friendly staff.

Jane Gordon

Great movies, quiet theatre, no loud distractions.

Jess Rogers

Easily the best theatre in town.

Best movie theater ever...

George Semple

Great movies not found in big places.

Manny Wilson

Sure. ..Nostalgia Movies

Loved the place and the cozy atmosphere. Most viewers where adults and made the experience that much enjoyable!

Kelton Rynard

One of the many amazing ways to spend your time in down town Kingston. Wonderful theaters, comfy seats and cheap tickets.

Gillian Watt

Always feel good watching a movie here. Great seats, great affordable concession, and i love being able to get a tea to drink while watching a movie. All the staff are so friendly. Really love supporting this place.

FEBIN GEORGE

Good

Glenn Ethier

Awesome theater

Peter Flindall

Love this theatre, real butter on the popcorn!

Cat London

The Screening Room is a gem of downtown Kingston and the only place in town to enjoy a diverse and wide-ranging selection of films. The staff are friendly, the tea is served in actual mugs, the butter on the popcorn is actual butter, and the film selection is exceptional. There's always something interesting to watch there, and they hold great special events and screening. Can't beat the Screening Room!

Ian Provis

Good old fashioned repretory theatre. Some seats have great legroom. Comfortable.

Talib Ali

Great local theater. Keeping the essence of cinema alive!!!

Alison Wright

Great little Indy theatre!

Cody O'Neil

Such a great business to have downtown. Shows indie, foreign and award winning films. Screen sizes are smaller but still makes a great experience. Snacks are actually affordable!!!!

Shauna Lynch

One of my favourite things to do in Kingston is to see a movie at the Screening Room. Be sure to have cash on you! They offer a great selection of movies and have a nice selection of snacks. The staff is always very friendly! I'm sure it is out of their control and probably a building problem but I wish the escalator was working to make the space more accessible.

michael rousseau

Wonderful theatre to view art films, documentaries etc. Great popcorn; intimate, comfortable atmosphere.

Ben Weaver

The renovations are really nice and make this theatre a much better experience. The updated seats are very comfortable and the people are friendly. This theatre is perfect for those who love movies without watching them with a ton of people. If you are looking for a place where everyone who goes here has a genuine appreciation for the artistry or for somewhere to see award show contenders, this is the place.

Laura Reid

Very quainte, small theatres but awesome. Great movies great prices

Lucie McLucieson

The only game in town!

Heather Simmons

Nice independent theatre. Serve popcorn with butter at no extra cost!

robert Cichocki

Best place to catch a movie. Great selection of films for a pretty sweet deal.

David Kusalik

Great local movie theatre with good selection of movies. Movie snacks are quite reasonably priced, especially compared to the big theatres. I will likely continue to have a membership here for a while.

Michæl Petkov

The screening room is an excellent cinema for downtown Kingston. Good selection of films and with a third screen coming soon the theatre will be a bonafide multiplex for lovers of foreign and indipendent (read good) cinema. My only complaint is that I don't like that they can be a bit late on scheduling. I usually like to look ahead a month and have an idea what's going to be playing and when. Too often. I'll only find out a film is being played on it's final stretch of screenings. Perhaps that's more a problem on my end!

Eric Jacques (griffondude)

Saw Beans there yesterday. Amazing place! Efficient, friendly staff as well as great quality projectors, sound and seating. I like their selection of classics and modern indie films. I will go again for sure.

Jesse Garden

Love this place.

Sean Lessard

Movies

Erica Harrold

I LOVE THE SCREENING ROOM. It has such a nice vibe to it, it's small, quaint, and such a cozy experience. While they do still get some big name movies they also have smaller Indy films and play classics as well, a great variety. They have great snacks but what I especially love is that I can get a tea in a cozy mug. The only downside with this is that there isn't really a place to put your mug in the theatre but I just deal with it, I still love it. If you're thinking of going here I highly recommend but it's worth mentioning that it's cash only so don't forget that! But such a great local gem.

Austin O'Boyle

Cozy and convenient, membership deal is great.

Brian Bernardi

Neat hidden gem in Kingston the new theatre is very comfortable!

Gemma McEachern

Great little theater that gives screen time to movies not usually in the big theaters. Especially love getting a cup of tea at their concession!

Pat Doyle

Comfortable seats and love my cuppa tea in a china cup !

Lara Casey

This is an adorable little movie theatre that has really tasty popcorn that you can get topped with real butter (at no additional cost). The staff are always friendly, and the theatres are small and homey.

Tracy Song

Affordable movies. Sometimes, you can watch movies that mainstream commercial cinemas do not show.

Ray Charlebois

Hidden gem, great movies

Blake St. John

A true gem in downtown Kingston - independent theatre showing independent movies. Real butter on the popcorn too!

Deborah Kingston

Such a cute, intimate theatre. Nicely laid out with small viewing rooms and nice snack bar. Very clean, well cared for and friendly

Brendan Montgomery

Wonderful theater showing non-hollywood movies which are thoughtful and artistic. Great local business which supports the community

Colin Ennis

Really great experience. We saw Three Billboards in Ebbing, Missouri. The lobby area is a bit dated, but the prices are totally reasonable and the actual screening room itself is cosy, which really makes for a communal audience experience. I'll definitely be coming back!

Ruth Allen

Enjoy the experience at this independent movie theatre always. Great membership options. The new renovations have made the venue fully accessible. If you yave not checked it out yet, I suggest you give it a try.

Michelle Schwarz

Great place to see movies that are off the grid! Lots of hidden gems out there!

Graham Stratford

The renovations have made it very comfortable, and the sound and video quality is excellent! We are so lucky to be able to go and see movies that never make it to the Big Chain theaters.

Jacqueline Cutler

Love this place! Saw Eighth Grade and Sorry to Bother You. Great indie films and reasonable concession stand prices. Considering a membership! Renovations look great!

Gord Brown

The staff were great and very helpful all positive. Snacks were not priced out of this world and coffee in a real China (sorta) cup. Was flabbergasted ,no styro or plastic ...gotta luv it...

Leslie Sweet

This is an awesome little theatre. I really enjoyed my time here.

The movies are superb but the main attraction is the 6’4” blond, lanky boy with the mysterious eyes. DAMN.

Heather O'Reilly

Great popcorn; great movies!

charles harari

Great Theater. Very clean and comfortable. Smaller Screening rooms is very good to watch movies.

Martin Beeton

First class movies, always a treat

Irfan Rashid

I feel like I don't need to explain why this place is great...

Tommy S

Comfortable and friendly experience.

Mike Sheppard

Simply cozy and delightful! Very safe protocols, a great place to see a movie. The selection is much broader so you get to see films you might not normally have a chance to see.

Michael Sheppard

Best popcorn in Kingston and a nice venue for indie films and mainstream films

Sinan Malik

Hidden gem in downtown Kingston. Support local cinemas and go here

C Keeler

A cozy, queer-positive space in which to watch movies of all kinds.

Jason S.

Shari Doseger

One of my favourite places in Kingston

Lynda Hoyle

Went to see Gordon Lightfoot tibute tonight....great artist and song writer. Always enjoy it at screening room.

April Stevenson

Great to have a theater downtown. Washrooms are small and limited number.

Stephen Kemp

What at treasure ! Smaller screens than the chain theaters but a fine selection of films that those places just don't show...they have just shown a run of films by Stanley Kubrick and at a reduced rate - especially with the membership. It has been recently renovated and is a nice place to spend a couple of hours

Christy Murphy

This tiny place is downtown Kingston's hidden gem! Do yourself a favour, buy the $10 membership, go see a movie, get tea in a real mug, popcorn with real butter, and just enjoy!

Neil Fernandes

The best independent movie theater!

Jada Makenzie

my happy place:)

Janine Abuluyan

It's one of my absolute favourite places in Kingston. Screening Room always has a well-curated movie list, the price of admission and concession food/drinks are reasonable, and the membership card is cute (also worth it if you go at least twice). Note: It's CASH ONLY

Eryk Stone

Good service and prices,

Emma Kushnir

Coziest movie theatre and best options in Kingston! Amazing staff and beautiful theatres. They have taken amazing COVID-19 precautions and create a safe haven for movie goers in Kingston :)

Patricia Watson

Great experience

Jadadefense

While the movie itself did not impress I enjoyed the old nostalgic feeling of a theater which for me hearkened back to the experience of the old style theatres of the 80's. Sometimes bigger is not always better

doubtfuldreamer

they charge a booking fee. it's not the grand theatre or ticketmaster. even cineplex doesnt charge a booking fee. quite ridiculous.

Lisa Fearon-Davis

What a great idea to be able to pick up their popcorn and treats!! We miss you and can't wait for you to reopen!!!

Cheyne Brodie

Great for watching movies that get a smaller release, friendly staff and great prices.

Derek Burggraf

Old school theatre experience at very reasonable price. My 1st visit was really great and I will return again. Very cool with the turntable playing vinyl records behind the ticketsalesman.

Michael O'Neill

Two awesome small theatres, diverse and affordable concession stand, brewers yeast available as a popcorn topping. What more could you want?

Donald MacGregor

Vary nice since the reno

Cathy Sheppard

Great movies, comfortable theatre and lovely staff.

Catherine P

The Screening Room is the best venue for non-blockbuster movies in Kingston. It also has by far the nicest and least expensive snacks/beverages of any local cinema. Right now it isn't wheelchair accessible, but Wendy the owner is presently undertaking extensive renovations to make it accessible and add a third screen. It is easy walking distance from Queen's and anywhere downtown. Check the Screening Room web site for renovation and movie updates!

Margot Coulter

Excellent selection of films, occasional speakers and down home local supportive flavour!!!

Nick Ethier

Cute little indie theatre. Cozy seating but excellent selection. Well worth a visit.

Max Howe

Staff are friendly and I love seeing films in a cozy environment. Films range from classics to major recent blockbusters

Jessica Lynn

Amazing local business! I loved being able to sip a mug of tea while watching a movie.

Janet L. Mitchell

Friendly staff. Great movie choices. Very clean.

Thomas Woodward

Best theatre in kingston

Peter Glynn

Great movies and popcorn at a reasonable price.

Judy Thompson

Love going to see movies here. Theatres small and intimate, concession cheaper, movies - out of the ordinary that wouldn't be given the time of day at the large theatre. Really as become my theatre of choice!

sue st laurent

Love this theatre, friendly folk, always amazing movies and cool events

Mitchell Hughes

Great atmosphere and unique movies

P Laframboise

Great local theater. 3 screens, 2 large, one small. Good coffee, served in a mug. Recently renovated. Fully accessible with elevator. Yearly membership options for discounts and free movie on your birthday! Free street parking after 5:30pm, or parking garage off of Brock street, for being flat rate of $3. Back entrance to theatre directly from parking garage. Highly recommend this unique cinema experience.

SN

Such a fantastic movie theatre. Always great service and the membership card pays for itself. I just wished they kept some movies for longer than a week!!

At Queens

Love the movies.

Gabriel

A great place to experience a different kind of "Movie Night". Very familial. Will keep going there a few times per year.

Csilla Lasso

This is a unique experience with being allowed to drink tea and watch some greatly selected movies.

Jennifer Paton

First big screen movie in months, such a nice experience. Felt very safe with so many seats (and bathroom stalls) closed off. Enjoyed a mug of herbal tea during the movie, that was a first.

Max Logan

A beautiful independant movie theatre, showing a beautiful and ecclectic mix of films. They have recently renovated, adding a third screen, and it is so nice to see them expand and improve. Looking forward to Rocky horror this October, too!

M C

Great renovations.Additional theatre a plus. No senior discount, but healthy snacks, tea available. Parking out back!????

Stephen Fessenden

Awesome experience. Only downside was we were in a quiet film and could hear a much louder film from next door. It was really muffled though and I only noticed it once, so 5 stars. On the upside, there is plenty of legroom in the cozy theaters and seats are comfy enough that I fell asleep about an hour in. The seats are raised enough at each level that you don't have to worry about anyone blocking your view. Plus a great film selection that you can't find at other theaters.

Kerry Edwards

Great place to see movies not shown in a regular theater.

Adam Jennings

Great theater, you can get tea at the concession stand.

James Quirk

A great cinema.

Marie-Andree Harvey

Friendly staff, always great, original or indie movies and intimate viewing. Opposite to big box cineplex... Very dynamic cinema owner with very creative idea. My favorite movie spot, hands down!

Max Starke

Very good but needs better tea mugs that you can fit in the cup holder. I was holding my tea the entire movie.
