Wednesday nights BOY is awesome too bad I couldn’t say the same about the movie I saw.

Nice little theater in the city. But they play good movies. Staff is also very nice!

Great little place.

A theater for film lovers. A lot of work must have gone into transforming that space into a functioning cinema. Staff was great and the seats were comfortable, especially since the movie my friends and I saw was a bit on the long side. Will definitely be back. My next trip will likely include concessions.

Small cinema jewel that was saved in Rittenhouse... thank GOD! Love the old cinema vibe with newer furnishings

Its nice small movie theatre. They play independent films and specialty films. I love it and would recommend it to my family and friends.

Get there early and buy tickets online. They fill up fast because its super small. Great experience, though. Clean facilities and local theater feel.

Comfortable seating. Audio wasnt too loud so sound was not distorted

Charming and small but I have seen bigger pictures at my friends movie night on his projector against the wall in his apartment. I understand the small aspect but, dam this was tiny.

Just saw the best movie, Blinded by the Light. The small intimate screening room was perfect for this movie. The Roxy is great.

It was cozy little spot. It didnt have much of selection for snacks and drinks. However it didnt take away from the entire experience. Id definitely recommend it.

Nice small movie house now run by the Philadelphia Film Society.

Love going here. Such a cute small and intimate experience.

Sound and picture quality were top notch. If your looking for an old town movie experience this is the right place, friendly staff and a very clean environment. If your looking for comfort this may not be the place. The seats do not recline and the arm rest are wooden. Plenty of space but uncomfortable. The concession are prepackaged bag popcorn, candy and beverages. Great intercity location.

Get there early. The front 3 rows offer incredible picture and sound. Love the staff.very cool-low key environment which is very surprising in a huge city.Go here!

Quaint and intimate setting to watch a movie. Very friendly and clean.

DO NOT host your event here if you actually want to get paid. While the staff of the Roxy did a good job of putting on my event it has been over a month and I still have not been paid out for ticket sales.

Small, screen and seating small as well as theater. I would imagine the ambiance lends itself to an intimate arts venue.

Convenient location in Philly.Friendly staff. Small theater if your not into huge crowds. My family loves it here.Enjoy the movie!

Great place to see a film. Cozy atmosphere

The place was clean and nice. I had a lot of fun here. And I am looking forward to come back

Loved it! Personal setting and not ghetto.

Hood location, I like is a small place, the chairs could be better.

Love the theater. Has an old school vibe. Small theaters 6 seats across in the whole theater I was in. Screen was smaller than your average AMC but the picture quality is awesome and the sound is top notch. Amenities arent anything crazy but has small bags of popcorn and water, soda bottles. Seats are not the most comfortable. I come here to avoid crowds. Its perfect for solo movie trips. Tickets are a little pricey though but since its independent I dont have too much of a problem.

Small theatre, comfortable enough seats, and convenient location. I would definitely go here again and recommend seeing movies here if you are nearby!

This theater is in centre city Philadelphia and features latest movies. The place is cozy and the sound and picture quality is good. The seats are comfortable. I have been there twice and the service has been good.

This is NOT a comfortable place to see a movie!The amount of space between rows of seats is as bad as flying cheap-o tourist class in the back of an airplane, BUT the seats at the Roxy do NOT recline, and as a result, your knees will become all-too-well acquainted with the seat in front of you.Even worse, the theaters ceiling is so low that the A/C equipment (mounted on the ceiling, with the vents facing or aimed straight down) will unmercilessly shoot cold air on your head until the theater reaches its ambient temperature, which I estimated as ~ 68 degrees.AND, because the theater is so small, the cranked-out volume of the coming attractions is even more deafening than in most other cinemas.And finally, when the movie was over and I relished the opportunity to escape, the Assistant Manager could not have been more snippy in telling me to wait to register my concern(s).The bottom line for me is that if this dump fell into a crack in the earth, and was never heard from again, that Philadelphia would not miss it.GO ELSEWHERE, MOVIE LOVERS!

Great theatre for blockbusters as well as lesser known films. Standard ticket price, but the snacks are cheaper. Great location for getting a bite to eat before or after, too.

Cute, retro theater. Comfy too!

Ill admit, Im not a regular movie-goer unless theres something I ABSOLUTELY want to see or unless I have plans to see a movie with friends. In this case, some friends invited me to see Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again, and I came along. Ticket prices are a tad steep, especially for such a small theater, but they do have student, military, and senior discounts as well as discounts for those who purchase Philadelphia Film Society memberships. They have a small concession stand adjacent to the box office and the bathrooms are clean and well-maintained. As far as the screening rooms, there is ample seating, the rooms are well kept between movie showings, and the image/sound quality is perfect. I look forward to returning eventually for more movies!

This will always be my favorite place to see a movie in Philadelphia.

A small theater in a great location that shows first-run movies. It has two small screens which look good but are a bit small. Both theaters are clean and were renovated a few years ago. Concessions are a little limited and they only serve Pepsi products. The staff is always very friendly.

Small but wonderful theatre.

Awesome time will be here again.

First time there very nice enjoyed myself

Despite its small size, it has perfect picture and sound quality and wonderful seats in its rooms, along with a smooth, cozy, vibrant atmosphere and experience. It also has nice, experienced employees and nice, tidy restrooms.

Good projection and sound. Great location, but small or intimate

Place is dope, nice and cozy atmosphere

Great theater. Small and intimate, crowd is usually quieter than all others. If you go please help keep it that way!

Great choice of films! My problem is with how moldy the theater is. Every movie Ive been to Ive had a stuffed head and itchy eyes halfway through the film. As soon as I got outside into the fresh air it started to clear up...

Good little theatre. The only problem is that it is pricey for the quality of experience you receive. You can get better experience in other theatres for the same price.

Wonderful art house theater

The Roxy is where we (me and my girl) goes when we want to see a movie in a nice clean cozy environment, showing timely movies.The staff is always pleasant and while the concession choices can use an upgrade like for soda flavors, hot teas, coffee, (lets go a little crazy, Hot Dogs with Brown Mustard and Sauerkraut), The Roxy is one of only four venues in all of Philadelphia that serves popcorn with real butter, instead of the artificial butter swill served on popcorn by the big box movie chains.The screen size and sound system has been upgraded since it first re-opened a few years ago, from the long ago closed original Roxy that served a niche audience. So anyone who was turned off by the small screens when it re-opened a few years ago, I suggest considering returning for a much better experience.There are just two screening rooms, both small compared to big box theaters and one a smaller than the other. But if you are in the mood for an intimate viewing experience with fellow movie fans who knows not to talk loudly, disturbing others watching the movie, The Roxy is perhaps the only movie theater in the city that offers this experience.Highly Recommended. I give it four stars because I sincerely believe more energy should be put into expanding the concession stand choices.P.S. Parking can be challenging, so plan to arrive a bit earlier to allow for finding a parking spot.

Cozy two screen cinema

Small, cozy, and perfect movie theater. Ive seen many movies here over the years. I saw Bohemian Rhapsody on November 2nd.

The screens arent as big as most large theaters but this place is so cozy and relaxed. The staff are always nice and chill. This is a great place to see movies casually.

No frills theater but close to home. Friendly staff.

Great experience everytime. Positive vibes yea.

This is a great theater right in center city. Run by PFS, they took over to save it after the couple that ran it for years retired. Support small theaters!

This off the grid location is one of center citys Hit or Miss locations, if you enjoy an intimate setting on a date or in need to check out a movie solo, then this theater is for you. check showtimes for whats playing at the theater so that you wont be disappointed, but its a must do.

Perfect place for movies.. easy parking easy to find tickets and movie theater arent miles away everything is nice and close

Its a small old and rustic place to be. They only show 2 movies at a time. They have a great pop corn seasoning station. Different flavors and the people are nice

The seating is cramped and the theaters are a little small. But they put on indie movies you will not see in other places. Snack stand is what you would expect of an independent movie theater. Bathroom situation is a little tight as well. However, they offer discounts for students, veterans, etc and that was nice. You should also aim to get there early to either find street parking, or finding one of the pricier local lots.

Its too old, but the sound system is really good. They keep movies longer than most of the cinemas, but for me the fact that the theater is small, and that the screen projection is older makes me give them only three stars.

Not a place I would ever visit again. Its more like a big room with a projector on it. We can not call it a theater. The seats are uncomfortable, and I guess they can seat may be 50 people. If I am right. The movie which we watched though, A quiet place, awesome.

This is a cozy tiny theater. The staff is very nice and they have popcorn and bottled drinks for sale. The screen is smaller than the larger theaters in the city, but you dont notice once the movie has started.

Saw Miles Davis movie there. Was ok.

Cozy affordable theater. Nice place to catch a flick.

Wonderful and pleasant staff.

Decent place. Small theater and good crowd. Center location. Sure you will enjoy

Love this place because its quaint

Tiny, intimate theatre. Remember your student ID.

I enjoyed the intimate space of the theater, its a great place to go as a group. Its clean, staff were friendly and seats comfortable.

I adore this theater! Wednesday night showings after 7pm are BYO for 21+ (beer and wine only, $3 convenience charge), which is quite a treat. They always have great movies and the theater is small so no matter where you sit, you can see the screen without hurting your neck. I would highly suggest this over any other theater, unless youre specifically looking for an IMAX experience.

This is the worst theater ever, they are playing movies off of YouTube in a very very very small and very very tight room playing movies in French with very very small fonts that they expect us to see, this is like a wholeeee house with one bathroom with one stall and you can’t even enjoy the movie while eating a nice little snack, I do not recommend!

They show great movies, has a lot of charm, and they do cool events. Sadly, it lacks a lot of the amenities of even second rate movie theaters. They have just 3 co-ed bathroom stalls, which means waiting to use the bathroom can take longer than youd like when you cant help but take a break during the movie theater, which features your smaller than average screen.I recommend giving this theater a go if you dont need the amenities. If you dont need snacks or bathroom breaks or big screens, this theater is perfect. If youre spoiled, like I am, maybe only go here once in a while for the cool events and hard to find movies.

Small theater with reasonable prices and good staff. Would definitely choose to go here if I wanted to see another movie any time soon.

Finally, west of Broad Street, a cinematic home for Center City residents with no carbon footprint. Amazing that it gets first-run movies. And the staff is great.

Great theater easy parking nice staff! And no long walks down endless hallways everything is perfect

Seats are VERY uncomfortable. This theater should be avoided. Prices are higher than most other theaters too.

Great little venue! I like the small theater vibe. Excellent staff to chat with.

Nice indie theater with all the mainstream movies but in a more intimate space

I love this little place. My favorite part is that it is local and theyre not out to make profit. Great prices compared to the big - box theaters. My only complaint is that the seating is very tight. The screen is a little high when you sit close to the front, but you forget about it once the movie starts. $2 discount if you buy a yearly membership, but youll have to go 18 times for that to pay off. (And I will)

Local venue that has a great mix of bigger movies and independent films. Usually some fun throwbacks in the mix as well.

Only house in town showing rare film, intimate, clean always a pleasure.

Small clean simple theaters. Staff was friendly. Missing some of the amenities of the huge mega Megaplex, in terms of food, beverage and larger and/or reclining seats. But definitely an enjoyable experience

Fabulous little cinema showing great films

Good homely theater (like I said... A little bigger than home theater, thats it). But a nice place to visit.

Cute, small, indie feeling theater, with great customer service. Sight lines for movie viewing are a little rough if the theater is crowded.

My son and I went on a grand adventure yesterday! We took the speed line into Philly from Cherry Hill, NJ. Got off in the heart of this big city, and made our way to the ROXY Theater. It was his first movie ever. He loved it! Thank you guys! I called ahead, and they told us to come in and give it a try. We stayed for the whole thing. Had the full movie experience... popcorn, raisinets ... Luke is special needs, and not always keen on new places. Tale as old as Time....

This two-screen theater is very mom and pop feeling, which gives it a certain charm. The screens are not large, but the projection and sound are very good. The seating is about as upright as it comes, with no recline to the chairs at all... my only real complaint.

Nice small theater, polite staff

The Roxy theater makes a great school trip to see a documentary or inspiring movie with your classmates in an nice movies environment its the best.

Ive been going to this theater for a couple of years. Its small, but thats part of its appeal, I think. They show some mainstream stuff (Black Panther, Beauty and the Beast), but also lots of indie stuff. It can be pretty crowed some nights, so be adviced to get there early, especially on weekends or byob Wednesdays. I dont live in the city any more so I dont get here as much as I used to, but its walkable, only a few blocks, from the train stations which is what I do when my boyfriend and I go. A great place. Ill keep coming back!

Great city theatre! Intimate, indie feel. My kids have grown up going to this theatre and love it. Seating is much better since it was renovated.

A nice, intimate theater.

Nice small theater that plays a mix of small independent films and blockbuster movies. Probably not the best place for movies with tons of special effects since the screens are small, but perfectly adequate for indie films.

Nice movie theater with great people!

Wanted to see Hidden Figures recently and their website said the cost would be $8, but when I got there, I was told it was $9; so, I turned right around and went out the door after telling them it was too expensive. Also, after reading the other reviews, it sounds as though the theater didnt get much of a makeover as far as the uncomfortable seats and smells. I remember seeing a mouse run across the aisle and the smell of pot inside the theater back when it was under different management. I prefer going to one of the Ritz theaters in Old City, instead.

Great little theater for movies!

Small theater with reasonable prices and good staff. Would definitely choose to go here if I wanted to see another movie any time soon.

I love the small atmosphere. Definitely a lovely find.

Nice place low-key place especially if you cant stand big crowds

Comfortable theatre with decent prices. The screen is a little smaller than most theatres so maybe dont go see the huge blockbuster action flick, but otherwise its a great movie experience.

Perfect location, comfortable seats, clean and good munchies!

Fantastic small theater tucked into center city. Always a good experience.

Liked the foreign movies and popcorn

They played movies off of YouTube. It’s way to small and way to hot in here! The lady at the front was lazing sitting there watch her show . The movie was horrible and wasn’t even in English . The seats were tight and uncomfortable. This is the worst movie theater ever !!!!! Don’t come here

Pretty awesome little theater. Recommend this spot for sure.

Nice, quiet, intimate theatre.
