Metrograph is a wonderful gem. With a beautiful cocktail bar and restaurant, a retro-elegant vibe, and movie theaters to see acclaimed and classic films, I highly recommend this for any date night.
Newly opened cinema with healthy snack options and a restaurant and bar upstairs. Very eclectic selection of films, and very few showings.
Beautiful cinemas with plush comfy seats
One of my fav cinemas in the world! Great movies and comfy seats.

My absolute favorite event at IFC is the Academy Short Films. A must, must, must for everyone.
Wonderfully broad selection of classic films and exotic indies.
Come for the movie, stay for the MFA cuties at the downtown screening center that V adores. Read more.
The only arthouse cinema in New York whose banana bread is endorsed by postmodern luminary Jacques Derrida. Read more.
Comfortable seat and amazing popcorn. Get the large it's a dollar more and worth it!
Try to get a series pass for the best deal. Remember to check in (4square) outside since the theater doesn't have AT&T reception inside.
If you have time before or after the film, have dinner at Lincoln Ristorante on the Plaza right over the bridge. It's superb!
The full experience of going to see an indie movie in a New York theater. The Cafe area is a lovely space, and gives it a classy vibe you don't get anywhere else. Great experience overall
Seats so old the springs poke your butt. Movies so good it's totally worth it.
Our design team spends many Sunday afternoons here watching international and indie movies for inspiration.
Classic films, indie flicks, and experimental cinema under one roof. No concessions, so get your Milk Dud kick before headed to the show.
Shorter than I expected but free wine and chips goes a long way.
Edgy, eccentric cinema
I just discovered this place. I like the cozy and homey vibe of this place.And the concession stands rocks...
All movies should be lucky enough to be screened in as gorgeous a venue as this
Beautiful film center home to three screens. Special promotions with Indie Food & Wine include Dinner & a Movie for $25 select screenings. Great relaxed atmosphere.
Great selection of films for people for whom cinema is more than superhero blockbusters.
Sit near the front as the elderly patrons tend to snore in the back
Average age of movie goers is 75, so don't talk once the lights go down or you'll get shh'd.
This place is pretty great. Awesome indie theatre with cafe to grab a wine or snack before or after the movie. Theatre is very comfortable.
The best theater to see a movie that will change your life hosts new art-house titles (at its Elinor Bunin Munroe Film Center), rep series and beaucoup festival offerings. Read more.
Indie and international cinema
a really lovely screening room. downstairs from the main lobby.
One of my favorite movie theaters to go to alone or with another movie lover. Their movie selection is amazing you don't see everywhere; also best sound system I've ever heard in a movie theater
The ultimate date-night destination to see a movie. If you really want to impress your date, try to snag a seat on the balcony - the view is great!
A great place for a unique movie experience. The theater has a really vintage feel to it and shows only one movie at a time. Try to be seated on the balcony where you will have the best view
Great little theatre. Usually not terribly crowded, and tends to show indie movies and documentaries as well as mainstream fare. Plus, the largest screen is old fashioned and lovely.
Watch a film in Auditorium 1 upstairs - it's one of the most beautiful theaters I've ever been in.
The right spot to indulge in 1920s glamour and amazing architecture designed by Louis Jaffe and inspired to Moorish Revival style.
movies, candy, cocktails
Boots off the furniture. !!
Grab candy from the 6th floor (better selection) before the movie. Comfy seats and blankets too!
Best sound system in a theatre I've ever experienced! Gravity was awesome! 🚀
The sound quality in this theater is excellent and it's also a 3D theater.
Good sound of course but comfy reclining seats too. No food or drinks. Inside an office building.
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
