A cinema that has alcohol. What more could you want? The movies are weird and fun. Great staff, and the ambience is alluring and comfy at the same time. And I really dig the seating; house chairs and couches! Not your typical big movie experience. The films are presented with Moxy.

Great place

Awesome Place to see a movie and enjoy a pint.

Thanks to an edge of your seat film and winter break, the theater was not crowded. This added more viewing pleasure as the hindrance of someone a bit taller in front of you would make you think twice about choosing to see a movie here. I love that you can enjoy a glass of wine or beer while watching, but as previously stated, this was an anxiety ridden film, Uncut Gems. Last thing you want is a sudden shattering of glass on the floor behind you, which seems inevitably to happen each and every time Ive been here. Perhaps a lighter movie??? I cant imagine theyd serve wine in a red solo cup, lol.

Great place. Wonderful atmosphere. Just a word of caution. The sofas are super comfy but we had neck strain because they are so close to the screen. We will try the seats next time. We will definitely be back!

Had no clue this place existed. Was such a good time. Very unique.

Best place in town!

Ragtag is the best cinema Ive been to. The people who work not only know all about the movies showing, they clearly care about the art.The drinks are great, wide selection of draughts and mixed drinks/wines. And yes, you can take them in the theaters. The biggest seller of this joint is that Uprise Bakery operates out of it so you can get great cookies, pastries, sandwiches, the works.I had my first kiss with my wife here

Wonderful local cinema that features indie and small showing pictures. The atmosphere is so cozy and its really awesome to have non-traditional seating available during movies. Make sure to check out Uprise Bakery located inside for an amazing treat to enjoy during the show.

We are from Ohio and have family in Kansas! We have found Columbia to be a convenient and charming overnight stop when we travel to visit family. The Ragtag Cinema has now become a must whenever we make the trip. The selection of movies is incredible! The food at the adjacent bakery is outstanding, and everyone we encounter - employee or townsperson - is friendly and helpful. A great tradition for our travels has been born.

Unique and comfortable place to watch a movie at and even get a bite to eat.

Why are you reading this? You know this is the best theater

I love this theater. Ragtag provides a more intimate and engaging theatre experience because its less crowded and quiet.Its also a great place because you can grab food and drink from Uprise and bring it in to your film. Nothing beats a drink and a great movie.

The Ragtag is always playing great indie movies and has a great atmosphere.

Excellent service, beer, wine, coffee and fresh-baked goodies you can bring in the theater. We saw Little Women on 35mm.

Very friendly staff. Theaters are the most comfortable and accommodating in town! They even have special headphones for people who cant hear well. Its perfect for my mother who is 70+yrs old. The atmosphere at Rag Tag is like no other! Always have a unique and pleasant experience.

Great bar, great popcorn, great place to catch a flick

Very unique movie theater and a place to hang out. Their selection of films includes documentary, nonfiction, and foreign. Two small and cozy theatres. Wonderful staff!

Great cinema experience unlike anything I had before! Definitely a highlight of my trip to Columbia!

Great food and great atmosphere, intimate setting, quality choice of movies.

A wonderful little theatre. Heres hoping it will receive enough funding in the future to add more screens and play more films. I do miss the selection of Plaza Frontenacs theatre in St. Louis and yearn for an independent theatre of similar size here in Columbia.

Wonderful theater showing independent films. You can buy food and drinks from Uprise Bakery and bring them into the theater. There are normal theater seats as well as couches at the front for you to choose from. Ticket prices are fairly standard, but the experience is better than a chain theater. And its a local non-profit!

I love Rag Tag! They show Indie movies that dont make it to the regular theater. The atmosphere is amazing and you get to sit on couches or comfortable chairs!

The fact that Ragtag doesnt show up as one of Columbias best sandwich shops is practically criminal. Every component of the sandwiches are fantastic. Fresh, crunchy, chewy bread, great blends of spices, plentiful portions, and a creative menu make this my absolute favorite place to get a casual meal in the city. Throw in an indie movie theater, a record shop, a cafe, and a bar with a solid, yet small selection of beers and youve got little reason to go anywhere else on the strip. Theres even plentiful parking at the triple deck garage on Hitt street. Whats not to love?

Awesome theater for non mainstream flicks and they have a full service bar

So nice to be at Ragtag all the time.

Nice selection of films and watch parties for events. The comfortable seating in the first couple of rows is the best part.

Best baked goods and fun atmosphere

Loved the beer. Loved the snacks. Loved the film!!!

A niche little movie theater with a bakery and vinyl shop attached. They show unique indie movies. There are about 5 couches and a few chairs you can sit on, it’s really intimate! Love it

Always have a good time here. Cool atmosphere with both quality theaters and bar service.

An intimate experience watching small films that everyone should try. I dont want to see all my movies this way, but I was very impressed by seeing a film here recently. Well done.

You can eat pizza and beer here whilst watching movies. Add in some great films and whats not to love?

Good price for nice selection of movies. Popcorn refills and drinks to go with it. I haven’t tried the food yet. I love the music they play and also there is usually a good crowd.

Comfortable seating, get to see films not on the big theater circuit.

Love going here. Has different films. Food is really good. Pastries, sandwiches and soup.

Great staff and schedule.

Not really welcoming unless your part of their circle. Kind of snobbish. But they are the only place that place some movies and their seating is comfortable if you arrive early otherwise its a fold up chair that even goodwill wouldnt take.

Great films, great popcorn, great membership deals. I love it!

Ragtag is one of Columbias hidden treasures, with indie movies as well as offbeat mainstream films. Plus, if youre so inclined, they offer drinks and real food and you can sit on one of the sofas in the theater and enjoy your show. Great place for a casual or formal date, or just to impress someone whos a little on the artsy side. Five stars.

Great small cinema, price is very reasonable. Beside that chairs are very comfy and you can take good food with you. They show really good movies you wont see anywhere else, I truly love this place, even though generally its for older people.

Some great atmosphere, small but sharp screen, an authentic cinema experience. You dont really need anything else.

I went for the first time and was amazed. They offer food and beverges also wine. They allow you to bring into the theater. The theater is not huge but the seats are very nice. Being in the theater you will feel like your at home. They have sofas and as seats. I would highly recomed this place.

Good movies, good nibbles

Great place to see movies you will actually talk about after you leave the theater. Dont expect to see big budget extravaganzas with endless special effects. Instead you will see films that communicate a message. Enjoying a brownie and glass of wine while you watch is always a bonus.

Cozy, clean, quirky. Love it!

Relaxed theater very good selection knowledgeableCrowd.Attached to a bakery restaurant and barStrongly recommend.

Great place to catch a movie and a drink.

A great alternative for folks who are allergic to Hollywood..

Love this place!! A great place to check out an indie film or documentary OR just stop in for a drink at the bar or some food at Uprise. This place serves as many things. One of my favorite places in Columbia.

A very cool little movie theater with unique titles that you dont find in traditional movie theaters. They also let you eat and drink in the theater and Not Just Popcorn. They serve hot food and adult beverages like beer and Cocktails. Even some of the seating are nice comfortable couches.

Ragtag Cinema has been one of my all-time favorite places to visit for at least 13 years! Great inde film, delicious food and beverages and neato staff

Cool place. The seating isnt terribly comfortable, but it isnt the worst Ive ever seen. Overall a good quality independent cinema.

! Best non for profit theatre ever!

Love the layout. The relaxed atmosphere. And pretty decent price. Family friendly too.

Very cool joint! Weve only seen movies in the smaller theater but its comfortable and the sound is not too loud. There are a variety of seats, some single, some love seats, the seats on the end have small tables attached so you can BRING YOUR FOOD IN and eat while youre watching the film! Awesome right?The next best thing is the bar and the in house bakery/Cafe where you can buy bread and goodies to go with your fancy cappuccinos and lattes :-) In the small theater the way you come in is the way you exit, so if you are sitting on the far wall and have to go to the bathroom, you will have to cross through in front of the screen.Service was professional and friendly but not overly so.Parking is across the street, the entire place has a hipster vibe, at least as hipster as you can get in Missouri! A+++

Downtown Abbey was awesome!

Best movies and food in town. Have beer whilst you watch a movie.

Ragtag,s great! Beale Street was sad and dark. But, realistic Im sure.

You can see films here that you cant see anywhere else. Very thoughtful documentaries and many award-winning movies before they come to the regular outlets. With the uprise bakery in the same building, you can bring drinks and meals into the theater with you. The seats arent quite as comfortable as other theaters, but where else can you sit on a couch at a movie theater?

This is the only venue I go to to see great movies in an intimate setting, with quality food, beverages and interesting people. THIS is creative and innovative world-class cinema with a friendly dose of community. Thanks Ragtag.

Nice atmosphere and pleasant staff. You can take food and drinks into the movie with you. It was a good experience all around.

Pretty cool little place to see some small name films, homey feel and very comfortable. one note very Hippie environment. the staff member that helped my friend and I out look a little disgusted with me, he was professional but a little snarky. would recommend for anyone interested.

Great aesthetic, great people, great drinks! I suggest this place to anyone who visits!

Place to go for independent movies..good food selections..

Yay movies! plus the cute guy who comes out and talks to you before the movie comes on is nice. even sit in couches

None other like it in the best way possible! COMO classic...more than an art movie house.

I had never been here before, but I really enjoyed the intimate atmosphere of the theater...and the wine :-)

Went to Ragtag for the first time last night and was very impressed. Great leg room (Im 64), clear picture and audio and an attentive audience. Finally, a theater that treats movies and viewers with the proper respect and not simply as a means to push popcorn for profit.

Fresh, cheap popcorn. Miller high life and snacks to indulge in while watching indie films on a couch?? Yes please. One of the few great establishments in Columbia.

Love this place. Quality movies. No car chases.Usually no violence. Just quality writing and acting.

RagTag is a gem in our community. Were so fortunate to have it.

Great indie movie selection in a small theater environment, with every movie lovingly introduced by one of the cinephiles that work there. You can bring in the drinks and food you purchase from Uprise Bakery to complete the experience. Ragtag is an institution in this town---I consider it one of the best attractions in Columbia.

Great little theater. Theres a bar so you can enjoy a glass of wine or beer with your movie. Some of the theaters are really cozy and have couches and love seats.

This collection of small movie theaters is The Place to see independent films in Columbia. You have your choice of standard movie seats as well as stuffed chairs and couches. Enjoy a beer or a glass of wine from the bar as you watch the latest in small budget films.

Went saw a movie with my mother in law. We had a nice time .We saw Colette it was a wonderful movie !!! I really enjoy Ragtag every time I go . I enjoy there Unique chairs and couches to sit in.

Cool venue. Staff was nice and drinks didnt seem over priced

This place is amazing! In addition to a lot of quality films, they have an excllent bar, bakery and restaurant attached. You can bring your food in with you and enjoy the movies from a wide assortment of couches and chairs.

Love having an adult beverage while watching a !

I love the little theater. Its got nice comfy seats and its a nice atmosphere with the bakery right outside. The movies are always well picked too.

Always enjoy attending a show here, but Im only in town over the holidays. Make sure to get in line early. The new chairs and couches are nice but I miss the rag-iness of the old ones.

Great atmosphere - the only place in town to see good indie flicks. Pretty much the only place I go to watch movies anymore. Also they are always at the center of True/False.

A cool place to catch a movie something to eat and spirits to drink. Highly recommend.

Fantastic films and documentaries, laid-back atmosphere with a hipster vibe. Comfortable theaters equipped with couches and a tables to set your beer/wine on. Rare gem in the heart of downtown Como.

Such a cozy place and the meal option is WONDERFUL!

Linda Ronstadt The sound of my voice

Popcorn stail drinks good

Small - couches and chairs. Intimate even with strangers. Great movies of all genres. Make note if u r a certain type of Volunteer (Juggernaut & Ziggerat) with True/False u get free admin to Fest docs for a year seating avail.

Great spot for a movie and great food and drinks at the bakery that shares the space. They choose good movies to show.

Excellent films both foreign and domestic. Nice small to medium theaters not like theater chains. Staff friendly and knowledgable. Hosts True/False Film Festival. Hosed with Uprise Bakery. Upside serves lunch and dinner plus has a small bar.

I would like to be able to see the best movies:a) on any given night as opposed to them showing on intermittent nights.b) in a clean, modern setting, as opposed to a seedy porn theater motif.c) eating high grade, tasty, fresh popcorn instead of a poor qualityproduct.d) without having to search for a place to park my car.Instead, every time a really good flick comes along I have to go to Ragtag because they are exclusively showing it.Almost as irritating is the theaters self-congratulating air of a superior intellectual appeal, as if without them we peons would never get to view quality films. Im sure that in other cities most of these same movies are available to be seen by a wider audience than here in Columbia. True cinema lovers, it seems to me, would want that more citizens would be exposed to the best of cinema, rather than hoarding them just to themselves.On the plus side, its nice that Columbians have the chance to see smaller budget films that otherwise might never make it to a town this size. I understand its necessary for Ragtag to exhibit some of the more lucrative films for financial viability, but I am sick and tired of having to accept the deficiencies set out above every time a good movie comes along.

Besides the awful popcorn and a few hipsters peppered within both the staff and consumers, this place is great! They always show interesting films and is usually pretty crowded. The bar is nice and their pizza is killer.

I love that they have a a few rows of couches in the front of each theater! Very comfortable.

The movies are great and its in a wonderful cozy atmosphere. I especially liked the popcorn which includes free refills, has almost no salt, and is popped in coconut oil.

A one-of-a-kind venue that makes Columbia extra awesome. They love films and filmmaking, and it shows.

Such a chill atmosphere and great sandwiches! They also show unique movies. Another great date night spot here in Columbia!

I havent tried the food yet. Plan to soon but the fact they get critically acclaimed movies and good indies into CoMo is enough to make me love this place. Highly recommend for movie buffs tired of all the remakes and love original stories.

Watching World Cup on big screen. Beer and food available. What could be better?

The Favorite is the best movie ever

Great films. Laid back ambiance.
