My visit on 10-16-18 was diminished due to the renovation they have going on. Currently they dont have any fountain drinks only a limited selection of bottles Coca Cola products. The renovations are supposed to be completed soon. Didnt find the staff overly friendly either. If my review or photos are helpful give a thumbs up

I was visiting from Pittsburgh, PA and decided to see a random movie while I was here. The guys at the cash register were super polite, even gave advice about getting items cheaper individually instead of a package deal since I was going to pass on the candy any way.They delivered the food directly to my seat, only a few minutes too so it was before the movie started.As for price, compared to my local theaters, Bow Tie Cinemas is less expensive, and has more amenities.Overall great experience, comfy reclining chairs with trays. If it wasn’t hundreds of miles away I’d be here every week.

Seats were comfy with a little table thing. Self-serve ticket kiosk was very convenient. The attendant told me the wrong auditorium number, but I remembered what the kiosk told me and all was well. If you dont do stairs, you should park on the second level of the red garage though.

This is a very nice theater and you get what you pay for. The tickets are $13-15 a person and the concessions are insane, but in exchange you get an intimate viewing experience in very comfortable seats. Every seat reclines fully and they are all leather and very comfortable. However each theatre only seats around 40 ppl so shows fill up quickly.A nice theater but certainly not a budget option

I love the new makover and upgraded seating! Just went and saw the new Avengers movie. As you can imagine, the place was packed but reserved seating and the new upgrades made it like we were the only ones in the theater. They even upgraded the food options. I got popcorn, soda, candy and a kids pack for 3 adults and 1 kid for $40.50. Not bad for the movies.

I love it. Awesome theater awesome comfortable seats I havent had a bad experience there and Ive been more than a couple times. Not to mention the convenience of it being at the mall were you can get a decent bite to eat and even do some shopping if youd like to thumbs up.

The ticket buying process and concessions are easy. The seats themselves are comfortable, but DO NOT sit in the front row.Went to go see Knives Out and the only seats left were in the front row. This has not been a problem at other premium theaters with reclinable seats. This is not the case with Bow Tie. The front row is mere feet from the screen. You have to strain to see the entire screen, and, because you’re so close to it, it distorts the screen. They need to remove that row or reduce the cost of the ticket for those seats.Otherwise, the theater was fine. Not great, not terrible.

I had an issue with my seats. I purchased tickets online as did another customer. Somehow we ended up with the same seats and went to the service desk to sort out the issue. The ticket salesperson (her name started with La) was rude and did not listen. She repeated several times that it was not the theaters fault but the purchaser (that was irrelevant). We explained the situation and all she seemed focused on was moving seats and sending us on our way. When I explained that the alternate seats were occupied, she continued to tell me those people were not supposed to be in the seats. Her response, Well the boxes are white on the computer so that means theyre available (even though I told her twice that they were occupied). The manager eventually came over and apologized for the seat mix-up. That salesperson should NOT be working with public, especially when there is an issue.

Reclining seats are great! and having the small tray for food and drinks its handy. We didnt order food to try out the new options, but I did enjoy my highball- love the bar added next to three snack section.

This place is awesome. It has all the newest movies and great seats. There candy may be overpriced, but that is a small sacrifice compared to the quality of their sound, picture, and seats. The seats are fully reclinable with foot rests, and have ample room. Everything youd ever need in a movie theater.

I had bonus tickets I got a good deal on. So far so good until I find out that there is a $4.50 surcharge for bonus tickets on all Disney and 20th century fox movies. My tickets didn’t have any restrictions noted on them. I ended paying full price for my tickets. That whole experience was just awful and I hope Bow tie fixes it.

Review №12

This cinema has better seating than any of the cinemas Ive been to. There is ample space in each of the rooms and the screen is huge. In most cinemas you wouldnt want to be in the very last row, but now you can sit there no problem. On the contrary, I wouldnt recommend sitting at the low rows because of the size, just a heads up. Great cinema regardless.

Very nice theater with decent lounge seating, leg room, cleanliness, and customer service.About 6 of us attended a show and really enjoyed the relative luxury of the seating. But, we were especially happy with the on-premise bar that served wine, beer, and mixed drinks.Movie-going has come a long way since I was a kid!

Now has recliner seats with tray tables. Nice but now you must buy a ticket for an assigned seat. Good feature is being able to see regardless of who is in front of you.

Movie was supposed to start 15 minutes ago. Several people have informed employees that there is no video. Still waiting. Might move this down to 1 star.

Very clean and well kept theater. Awesome choices at the concession stand. Any place I can see an early Sunday movie and have warm cinnamon sticks delivered to my seat gets a good rating in my book.

Comfortable spacious reclining seating. Theatre was super clean and staff super friendly. They have a ton of food variety. Not just popcorn and candy. They have like full on meals. I will not be going anywhere else from now on.

Movie selection is great, service is adequate and the screens are awesome. My only complaint is about the sound system in the theaters themselves, which are sometimes too quiet to capture the action in some movies

Review №22

I was in the BTX theater for Deadpool 2 tonight. I love the sound of this theater. The booming effects of this particular film was loud. The reclining chairs are nice but firm. The bathroom was very clean. The theater itself, for the price of that particular auditorium, they need to do a better job of cleaning the seats as popcorn was in each side and the trays at the seats too. I could return as I enjoyed this style of movie watching on a larger screen.

This is my go to movie theatre. I live in Calvert county so there are a couple of movie theaters that I can go to but this has the best of all the new movie theatre options that many people are looking for( stadium seating design with big recliner chairs, reserved seating, updated digital screen and sound, and step up in food and drink options (cheesesteaks and wine and beer) which can be delivered to your seats. The staff is always friendly and the theatres are always clean. The price is good for this experience. It is a step below theatres like the Ipics theatres or the new theatre in the kentlands area in Montgomery county but for those living in southern maryland the bow tie cinema in the annapolis mall is going to be your best bet to watch a movie.P.S. this may sound funny, but one of the things that also makes it the best is the large popcorn tub with the cover that can double as a second popcorn container to share. This allows for the tub to be closed after adding butter and shaken for even distribution. Small but genius things like this is why you go here.

Had a nice lunch in the food court, had left over Chinese food sealed in a to go bag with no utensils. He theater would not let my wife and I in because we had outside food. I tried to explain that it was just leftovers with no utensils. Wouldn’t let us in, absolutely ridiculous. Talk about family friendly

Went to Annapolis mall movies 2 times in the last 3 months. I love their new leather reclining seats and tray tables. There is so much room from the person in back or front of you. Ive always had a great experience here. Staff is friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend a visit here to catch a movie. The only bad thing is I feel theyre a little high on their price of movies. They do have a decent price for their matinee that I believe ends at either 5-6 pm take advantage if you can youll save more than just pocket change. Enjoy!

Review №49

Bow Tie has really improved lately and the reclining seats continue to be a signature feature compared to other nearby movie theaters. The new menu items look really interesting and apparently can be ordered to your seat if theyre not immediately available, which is a huge improvement from their previously limited menu. The staff is friendly and has always been helpful, and that hasnt changed since the theater has gone through several rounds of renovations.

The theaters are clean and comfortable. I love the reclining seats. The theater layout is very roomy. The BTX theater is great for big block buster movies. My only complaint would be the price of the concessions. But that is standard for all movie theaters. Bow Tie is my first choice when I want to see a movie.

Review №58

Great theater after the renovations. Prices are absurd, as with any theater. Moviegoers are still pigs that lack proper etiquette with texting, talking, FARTING and what-not. Annapolis has more than its share of winners, no doubt. I love the person that checks their texts! I lean over (shoulder touching shoulder) and read it with them, look them in the eye and smile.

Review №59

The recliners are amazing in this theater. It has very spacious leg room, trays for food and assigned seats. So, when youre checking out using one of the kiosks, make sure to pick your seats if youd like to do so! They sell a giant bin of popcorn (170 oz), so bring some friends to help you get to the bottom of it. It was a better visit than the last time I went to this theater, for sure! So, if it has been awhile, go check it out.

Bowtie Theatres at Westfield Mall are nicely arranged with comfortable seating but the day we visited, there was one person selling tickets with a long line of people. Due to traffic we were late but the four people at the refreshment counter didnt seem to care when I asked them to open a second register. Nor did the person who seemed to be in charge and walked over to the line. I mentioned the long line and she walked away. Another employee returned from lunch drinking his soda and just shrugged when I asked if anyone was coming to help. Twenty minutes to get through the line and into the theatre!

Now that this theater has reserved seating I go to the moviesmore often. The theaters are usually clean and theres no waitwith the reserved seats. The concessions stand also uppedtheir game apparently. I dont usually get food but my friendsactually enjoy their food rather than just tolerating it.Bowtie also does a good job maintaining their presentationhardware. I have only seen one screen issue since theycompleted the renovations and it seems like they put in effortto ensure the architecture doesnt rattle during crescendos inthe moviesFinally, the entrance is convenient from the red garage.Management added an entry door in the second level so thatyou can enter there easily.

I love the newly designed/renovated seats! I do not like that they dont accept the regal points! I guess I understand. I love coming here on Tuesdays because it is $7/person for a movie. All day matinee prices definitely will attract a higher audience rate!

The seats are comfy, and the table is a nice feature, but one thing that stays the same every time I go there is that its not cleaned. The seats always have popcorn bits on them, and dont even get me started on the cup holders, they are somehow the most disgusting thing, and look like they havent been cleaned in years.

If I could give this a zero star I would. If not for the old gross seats, sarcastic and uncaring staff, then for the infestation of rats. I heard scratching and other odd noises and dismissed them as my imagination but what I could not have imagined in a thousand years was the life of a daring young rat who crawled up the arm of my chair and proceeded to try and drink from my open lemonade cup. Too disgusted to shoo him away I sat in disbelief as another rat crawled onto the chair next to me. This was my last experience at this movie theater and I wont be back for another.

Best theatres around. Chairs that recline with the touch of a button, privacy wall in front of the row of seats and behind so no-one can sit immediately behind you, let alone put their foot on the arm of your chair. Amazing place to go see a movie.

Great place to watch movies. My son and I went here to watch the lastest Spiderman movie. So easy to purchase tickets online then picked them up at the customer service desk. I reserved premium seat( at least my preference) first row upper level center. To my surprise they have big reclining seats that were very comfortable. Also parking in the garage has a dedicated entrance directly into the theater lobby. Recommend this theater.

This to me is the perfect movie theater. I show up, buy my ticket at a machine(or reserve online), have a problem using my member card at the ticket machine, walk to customer service and meet with someone who is either in a good mood or bad (I dont mind either way, people are allowed to have bad days), get the card problem sorted, give someone my ticket to tear and they tell me which theater to go to. Super simple and easy. Theater are usually pretty clean and staff arent overbearing. I tried to walking one time with an outside ice cream cone, they said no and didnt let me. Fine with me, its in their rules. They also underwent a refurbishing of the old place so now it has vinyl recliner seats and food and stuff, very cool. Like I said, perfect place, run by real people. My ONE complaint comes from occasionally a speaker will be out in the surround sound and MONTHS ago it caused me to miss ONE line of dialogue, really, no other problems. The speaker issue is the only thing keeping it form 5 stars. Thank you for reading this and good night.

The theater looks great now and I like the assigned seating and the option to order food. I think staff could be nicer and the manager as well. He seems to be new but inexperienced in handling situations. Took him ten minutes to figure out we were returning two tickets we already purchased and just wanted our money back, but keeping the other 4 tickets. Then the young man collecting tickets ripped them so that we didn’t know our seats. Luckily we ordered them online.

I believe they should offer military discounts. Movies are designed for people to spend as any other establishment, but there needs to be relief somewhere
