I would see any movie this place offered. I went to my first solo movie here. One of the best things Norwalk has to offer. #bittersweet

Terrific place to see films. Its a place where people really love movies and its one of the few places in the state where you can see surprising fare. No superheroes in sight!

Nice theater with movies thst are of quality that you dont find another theaters. Its a disgrace to this city thst its been sold yo be turned to a parking lot. Turning Norwalk into a cement city withouf the charm it has always had.

This is a very nice movie theater that shows interesting and good independent movies. My only complaint is that during one showing I was in, I heard the movie from the theater room next to mine. It was only for about 30 seconds when the movie I was watching had a very quiet part, so it really didnt take me out of the movie too much; its just not preferable. This has only happened once since Ive been there. You have to check this theater out!

Great Independent movie theater that shows documentaries, Independent and small release films. Friendly staff Reasonable prices on tickets and concessions, fresh popcorn and baked goods along with typical movie candy. This is not your big box ultra HD lounge chair theater but if you want to see great movies at a good price without people talking or using cell phones this is the place to go. Always support independent movie theaters.

The Garden is great--the only good movies in the area. Very comfortable seats and good concessions. Parking can be tough, so allow for extra time on weekend evenings. A big plus is that the upstairs theaters are great if you can sit close. The one major drawback is that upstairs ventillation is not always great and it can get stuffy. Otherwise, five stars.

This is an art cinema and should be preserved.Many of these movie houses are becoming extinct. Shame!!!

The best movies and the most amazing popcorn (with real melted butter if you want it) ... But dont forget cash, they dont take credit cards.

I love this movie theatre. They play the kind of movies that you dont usually see in the mainstream cinemas; in other words, all the award winners. This is where you come to see the Oscar nominees. Also, they pay for their patrons parking, but the parking lot owners dont let you know that ahead of time.

Do yourself a solid and go to the Garden cinemas its a step back when going to the movies was a real date night. Much more intimate than being bearded into so many doors.

My favorite theater! You’ll see things that don’t run in the big places, independent and European films.

I love the movie selection at the Garden (a local independent and arthouse distributor). Parking can be challenging with small lot and ongoing construction. Seats are older, cash only, but its a family run business so I support it whole-heartedly.

The local art and independent movie theater -- no town should be without one. This place is a little run down and needs repair (2016), but there is no where else to see these movies locally, so I am grateful!

Great local spot for indie, arts and also mainstream movies - and friendly, personal service, unique accessible seating (self-serve, seat reservations not required, and thats a GOOD thing) that guarantees good screen viewing; and great popcorn, snacks/beverages.

Our theatre was very cold, but if they ran the heater it was very loud. On the plus side, nice, big old school seats. Also, be prepaid, they dont take credit cards.

They need a better website. Do they take credit cards? What are their matinee prices? What time does the Box Office open? How do you talk to a person when you have questions NOT covered on their recording?

Review №36

Pros: They show independent films and other art house films -- great for our community.Cons: The facility is in dire need of rehabilitation. You must bring an extra sweater/wrap to put OVER your coat in the cold weather. The heating system is either inadequate or not being used to keep customers comfortable. The only accept cash - a real inconvenience. Due to nearby construction (2016), there is little available parking outside of their small private lot.

Best films not in chain movie houses

I loved this theatre back in the 90s. It lost its luster when with a single rude gesture, the manager, who also took tickets acted as if i had never been in there before. I guess i have sucker written all over my face. Today, when i walk in 20 minutes to show time, he asks me, what can i do for you? as if im here for a haircut. His tattooed assistant makes another comment, saying breaks over as if i ruined their break by walking in to see a movie. It gets 1 star for nostalgia, and an extra star because it shows woody allen movies.
