First, the clerk couldnt process my ticket. Per the online instructions, I gave her the card I used for payment.She didnt know how to do it that way.Then, I pulled up the email containing my electronic tickets. She STILL didnt know what to do, and wouldnt let us in to our movie until a manager finally intervened. By then, it was 5 min past our movies start time.We hit the rest room, and I ran out to get popcorn.She knew my movie started at 4:20, and it was now 4:35. So she took my payment... then walked away, all the way up to the ticket booth, where she helped another customer, before walking back to GIVE me my popcorn.The floor from the snack bar back to the theaters was so sticky, my feet stuck to the floor, making it hard to walk.There were 2 saving graces: fully reclining seats (like laying down) and the (different) manager who refilled my popcorn when I dashed out mid-film. Unlike anyone else there, he seemed sensitive to the fact that I didnt want to miss part of the film.This theater is an hour drive, but was the only place nearby showing my movie.Next time? Ill drive to Gainesville, rather than go to this disaster again. My daughter was in tears, ready to just go in frustration, before the film even started. Rather the opposite of the experience we were looking forward to!

On a Sunday at 1:15pm, out of stock of hot dogs and nachos. None to even cook. I asked for my receipt and the cashier had deleted it from the system after I paid? And was unable to give me one. Womens bathroom was nasty dirty. They did had plenty of staff standing around.

I love EPIC.As far as theatres go, they are one of the best.They are extremely clean, their service is fast. I love the automation that they have embraced. Their ticket buying is simple and streamlined.Their food is good, their popcorn is good, and their selection of concessions is awesome.Their picture and screen quality is excellent, as well as the modern style recliners they have in every theatre.Also, I love their rewards program. You get free stuff just for going to the movies. Thank you EPIC for being so awesome!

Amazing personnel at this location! I lost a sentimental Christmas pin in the theater yesterday (Oct 7th). I called and asked if anyone could check our seats to see if it might have dropped there and I immediately went back to also see if I could check. The young lady in the phone was sympathetic and said she would relay the message to the ushers. When I arrived, I spoke with the young man whom takes the tickets. He was aware of the missing item and checked with the ushers. They had not found it, but confirmed the seats we were in and went back for another look. THEY FOUND IT! I was so amazed and excited to have my pin back. As were my grandchildren who gave it to me and the one’s who noticed it missing. These gentlemen were kind and respectful to my concern. They didn’t try to pass it off as a silly old lady problem or have attitude. THANK YOU to the young men for being honorably and excellent employees. Epic should be proud to have you.

First time . Good experience. New to select your own seats so we did ask to have them changed as first choice was much to close to screen. Comfortable.More expensive than we are accustomed to paying.

There are two Epic Theaters near where I live, one is this one and the other is in St. Augustine. I live in St. Augustine, but well make the drive to go to this one because its much cleaner and more professionally run. Its a very, very nice theater.

Great seats. Great theater. You can definitely tell that its newer. The only thing I didnt like was no discount for young kids (my 3 year olds just sat on our laps anyways).

Review №17

Its a very nice theater usually not crowded that may not be good for business but its good for your customer that is there reclining seats you can book them in advance restrooms are always clean at least when weve been there occasionally the help looks a little stressed like youre going to ask him a question about calculus instead of wheres the mens room but usually if you keep it about the place and nothing else theyre good

Beautiful facility. Clean and the seating was very comfortable. The theater room we were in was small but that wasnt a bad thing. Like the reserve seating. We will definitely be going back!

So I decided to check out this theater since I now live on this side of town. The layout is not what Im usually used to since the signs arent immediately easy to find upon entering. The staff is... Not that helpful. Their vibe was more why dont you already know where to go? and was a little off putting. I might give it another chance but will probably stick with AMC

Our theatre of choice! Friendly and courteous staff and very comfortable seats! Good variety of drink options including alcohol. Not a huge variety of snacks however the popcorn is fresh. They have the typical hot dog, pretzels, nachos, chicken tenders with fries, pizza and ice cream novelties. They do also have milkshakes which is nice too.

I went to this theater with my mom for the very first time yesterday to see the Lion King in 3D. I think its my fave theater! I LOVE the reclining seats! They had collectible Lion King drink cups and popcorn buckets - I bought a drink cup (I dont eat popcorn). I love how nice the theater was that we saw the movie in - it was clean and small. I have sensory and anxiety issues so I dont like a lot of people. I very rarely go to the movie theater. This is perfect for me and I will DEFINITELY be back!!

We have been coming to the Epic Theatres at Oakleaf since it opened and have probably spent over $3,000 at this establishment collectively.We have never had a problem getting an additional bag or bowl for the children to use when we buy a large popcorn and drinks for everyone in our party of 5. Easily a $100-$150 event each time we go to the movies. Today the staff informed us that they were out of the “share bags” but refused to come up with another solution to make it right. We spoke with a shift lead and the manager on duty. They said that in order for us to get an additional bag or bowl we would have to be charged for it because they are inventoried on a very strict restrictions and “cannot” make any exceptions. She’s the manager, she could have made an exception if she wanted to. We moved along and paid for our snacks and refreshments.When my boyfriend went back to get a “refill” of the popcorn he walked up to two staff members gossiping about the situation and they didn’t notice he approached them and was standing there listening to them go on and on about our situation. When they finally noticed him standing there they stopped talking, like two deers in headlights. He told them that they can continue their conversation and both of the staff members rolled their eyes and one walked away.While the additional bag was a minor situation, the part that drove me to decide my family will never spent another penny at this theatre was the complete disrespect and down right terrible customer service.Today was the most unfriendly staff and experience we’ve ever had at a movie theatre. I will gladly give my money to AMC or Regal Theatre’s.

One of my favorite movie theaters. Because I dont have to deal with unruly teenagers a lot of crying kids. I love the leather reclining seats. The price is great. I dont have to deal with the traffic at the mall. The atmosphere is perfect and I can enjoy my movie which is great

I enjoyed myself here but the concessions at this theatre is very pricey! I know movies are a little costly but it was very surprising how much we paid. Also the signs dont really give any information to the prices or deals.

I love this theater except I walk with a cane and cannot step up on the curb. I have to walk all the way to the far end of the theater to the ramp and turn and walk back to the door. I have complained to everyone here to please put a ramp in front of the door. Im sitting here now waiting for the rain to stop because I would get soaked in the distance I have to walk back to the ramp and to my car. Please fix this and your theater would be perfect.

Review №52

I love going to this movie theater. Nice staff and I have yet to have a problem. The only thing I think they should change is when to select your seat on the computer it doesnt always tell you if the seat you are sitting next to is closer than the other. Me and my fiance always go here to see movies and when picking a seat there are some that have a sharing hand rest and others that have two different hand rests. I wish the computer would show which ones are which. Last movie I went to see was a scary story and needless to say for horror movies I like to hold him when I get scared. The seat he was in next to me was a double had rest so we were further away. The seat next to me was a sharing hand rest. The theater was full so we couldnt move seats. Other than that I love this theater.

Review №53

Its comfy, its cozy. The seats make you feel like youre at home! The only thing I see as any kind of downside is the snack booth. The layout massively confused me. I can see on busy nights on how it works but when its just a usual calm evening, it seems a little off putting. Otherwise the theaters are fantastic.

This theater is in a quiet area so theres not a lot of people in the area to compete with for seating at least during the day. Handicap seating is available upon request and most of the theaters its upstairs you have to take an elevator but thats provided all seating is the electric recliners with cup holders very comfortable and easy to transfer to from a wheelchair. Super large screens and very high quality sound.

Outstanding theaters options with super comfortable seating, and beer & wine in your seats. XL screen is awesome, but stay out of the front row if its avoidable. Not crowded at all. Cant say enough about the seating.

Jo
Review №75

This is literally the best movie theater Ive ever visited. Its a premium experience so while the ticket and concession prices are a little high, you get what you pay for. I didnt feel like part of the herd like I do in AMC and other theaters. Plenty of room to get by people if you need to exit during the movie. I HIGHLY recommend the Epic to everyone who loves movies and doesnt want to feel packed in a room like a bunch of sardines. ;-D

Review №80

This was me & my fiances first time going to this movie theaters the chairs were absolutely comfortable & The cashiers & people working at the popcorn concession stands were absolutely AMAZING I give them Infinity stars (()).. But what I didnt like is they didnt have any type of advertisement posters of the movie Black Panther out front in the lobby They had plenty of screens playing this wonderful movie. But, I like most people feel that if youre paying that type of money to see it which was $28 we would like to take a picture by the posters in the end.. Come to think of it I didnt see a lot of advertisement for any movies that were being played out in there lobbies Just a few small television previews which I thought were cool, the place is absolutely beautiful, thats the only reason why Im giving 1 star honestly.. all that really matters is the experience was wonderful & quite peaceful, I love the fact that wasnt a bunch of young kids in this theater being loud & disrespectful, it was only a few people in the same theater we were in..

Best chairs in a movie theater in OP or Jacksonville. Clean and comfortable. Love this place. I am so glad that movie theaters have gone this direction with seat selection and chairs. Love it, but it would be nice to have massaging chairs and cooled/heated seats. Just an FYI if anyone is listening! Still great place and will go only to Epic.

Me and my wife are both asthmatics and every time we come home from the movies our clothes smell of this horrible fragrance and we have to take a shower and use our inhalers. So, today I called, spoke with the manager and voiced our concern. He indicated that they use some kind of wipes to wipe the chairs. I asked him if he knows exactly the wipes they use but he directed my complaint to the corporate office. All he needed to do was look at the label on the bottle. If you are allergic and wonder why you cant breathe when you go to EPIC, now you know why...we are staying away.

Cashier had the crappiest attitude while my family and I were paying for our $52.00 of snacks. 5/8/18 4:30 PM. Paid more attention to her texting than to thank us for getting raped with those prices. She need to be cleaning the bathroom instead. By the way thats a picture of her having an intense conversation, rather than to thank people who just paid over $100.00 for 2 hours of entertainment. No manners No respect No gratitude No training from management.
