Like A Local GuideOctober 16, 2013Go to The Movies for the classic movie evening. The program is in between art house movies and blockbusters. The interior, smell and atmosphere will make a great impression. Read more
Jose JimenezAugust 6, 2014It's an old theatre keeping the decoration. It feels cozy and it takes you back to the past. There are small rooms where you feel like watching a movie in your living room. It is a must go place.
Cute indie/mainstream movie theater. Always crowded, always very warm inside the cinema halls. Still very cosy for pre-movie drinks. Btw: Online tickets save a lot of time.
Samina RindAugust 14, 2014Charming 100 yr old theater in the colorful Jordaan 'hood showcases leading and up-and-coming indie flicks. Nab a glass of wine from the bar and curl up in the cozy lounge pre or post show.
Salwan FinjSeptember 4, 2020Cute little private theatre, nice snack bar as well... lots of character and runs some new Hollywood releases and international films as well
Aprile ElcichFebruary 19, 2016Really cozy and sweet old movie theater, love the atmosphere and the bar where you can wait (and bring your drinks in). Oh, Europe.
Dr Profressor Food Destroyer Von Die Quantum RealmFebruary 19, 2016Historic. Not cramped. Good audio. Big screens. Decent prices. See a movie. Drink a beer. Bring a date.
Tero AngeriaMarch 10, 2018Old fashioned movie theatre. Great for dates. Enjoy a bubbly prior to catching a movie..
- They don't sell popcorn here so if that's a must for you when going to see a movie, get a bag at Albert Heijn down the street.
Adam NowekJune 25, 2015Well-preserved movie theatre that transports you back in time. Always a fantastic selection of films on display here.
Marjolein SoederhuizenJune 13, 2012My ex used to worl here and even made some of this moviehouse he was a carpenter, but also the operator for some years back in 1972/73/74, very nice and good movies always- Lovely old school movie theatre. You can combine a movie with a nice dinner. Perfect evening.
- Nicky WormhoudtAugust 11, 2016Cozy cinema with a nice little bar. Fun fact: it's the oldest Amsterdam cinema (1912)
Jim A.October 25, 2015Really nice art movie cinema. Like you remembered a cinema from childhood .. :-)
Victoria ClarkeJanuary 21, 2016Very cool, v comfy, v authentic, v atmospheric. Restaurant really good (esp for Amsterdam).
Teo GeorgoulisJanuary 12, 2015The oldest cinema in Amsterdam. Old-fashioned? Yes. Step in and feel like being in a time machine.
Bas van PeltDecember 1, 2013Very nice retro movie theatre, and a restaurant in the same style.... if that is what you want..... just the wardrobe is missing.
Amsterdam MagazineFebruary 2, 2011A really beautiful old fashioned cinema that screens independent films with a restaurant/bar attached. A great place for a dinner and a movie combo.
Mara JustinFebruary 4, 2018Pulled pork as starters and mussels as main dish are a Perfect combination!
I love this cinema. Also a great place to hang. Food is great.
It's just a beautiful Cinema. Not so big and no blockbusters. Good quality of movies 😊👍- Best indie movie theater in Amsterdam. Always a great experience.
- It kind of smells like old people here but I feel like that adds to the atmosphere. The oldest movie theater of Amsterdam!
- Great bar and good food too. Best cinema in town.
Tom VollebregtAugust 30, 2012Great place to have your first date. We all do. It makes you look sophisticated and cultured.
- Extremely cute movie theater - the oldest in Amsterdam. The 3D glasses suck, though.
The place is always packed but the café is nice to sit in between movies. The coffee is decent but nothing spectacular (get that across at Two for Joy). Most fun: hanging out in front of the door.

nihaLoSeptember 20, 2015Please put an air condition in the saloon 3. We could hardly breath yesterday at Knight of cups.
Matthew ScottJuly 5, 2010Better than any concessions stand: choose the drink of your choice from the bar and take it into the zaal with you!
