Cheers! This amazing movie house makes my heart melt. All the movies I wanted to watch were all right here. I was not mistaken about turning to this place for good vibes. They never fail me on my high expectations. The whole movie was awesome! I wont hesitate to recommend this movie house to all of my friends. Nice!

Its ALWAYS a treat to watch a movie at this fantastic gem of a San Francisco movie theatre. It is 108 years old and still going strong! I hope it never closes.

This movie house is great. The staff is very diligent and friendly. Prices are reasonable since you get high-quality movies to watch. The atmosphere looks good and the foods are always fresh and delicious. Such a great experience and place for moviegoers like me. Thank you very much and have a great day ahead.

The best cinema house in town! At first, the staff entertained me appropriately and nicely, and I felt very happy about that. As I entered the cinema house, I could see that the arrangement of the seats was comfortable and clean. Also, the foods, popcorn, and drinks that they served taste yummy and OK. I loved this cinema house a lot. It was a very good place to hang out. Thanks!

Wow! This movie house was awesome. I will never look for another movie house again for sure. I never thought this place would be this great and comfortable. I really love this place! I will save their contact number for reservations in the near future. No hidden charges compare to other movie houses! Thumbs up to this place!

My friends and I went to this movie house to hang out and have fun. The staff was very accommodating, nice, and helpful. When we came in, the seats were comfortable and organized. Even the screen was too large and clear. Also, the popcorns and drinks that we bought were yummy and OK. Next time, we will come back, for your movie house was satisfying. Nice service!

A five-star rate to this cinema house because they managed to maintain their facilities well. The seats here are very comfortable, and the snacks are really good as well. I really had a good time here, and Im happy because everything else that I needed was provided. Great work, everyone! Keep it up!

Iconic SF Theater and I saw Tarantino there!

It was my first time going to a movie house, and I was really amazed at this place. The screen was so wide and the speakers were not too loud.n The reclining chairs they have are very comfy, big, and cozy to sit on. The snacks they had were very delicious especially the popcorns and hotdogs. I really had a wonderful experience!

Old school theaters showing art house movies are almost common place these days, but its important to appreciate how these classic movie houses can still thrive! For the Roxie, great shows are always playing, and its very comfortable as you walk in straight to your chair. It doesnt feel tired, and you can enjoy modern amenities as well by grabbing a can of independent beer for your film.

The Roxie Theater, and its Little Roxie 2 doors down, are a great San Francisco independent cinema and event institution. The variety of film= and festival screenings and events offered is second to none worldwide. I encourage all film lovers to consider becoming a supporting member of the Non-Profit Roxie. At the Patron Level you get to access almost all screenings and events, except for some Festival screenings controlled/limited by the festival organizers. One thing that almost makes me give the Big Roxie a 4 Star Rating are the increasingly uncomfortable and aging seats. I hope there will be a way to get them maintained/upholstered or replaced in the future. Thanks Roxie Team.

Fantastic independent theatre. Its small but has a lot of atmosphere, seats are cozy and they have some very unique old school indie movies from time to time. Visit this place

Historical movie theater. Shows lots of indie, anime, and classic movies. Its in the mission District. Still has the old mission vibes. Many restaurants (traditional or modern )within a few blocks radius.

A bit too old school for me. Seats old and uncomfortable, not very clean and smelled weird inside the theater. Popcorn machine was broken so didnt even get to try it. Only one bathroom but it was clean. My husband and I enjoyed the movie and he liked the beer he chose. Overall we will not go back unless theres a film we REALLY want to see thats not available anywhere else.

Old time SF theater: big Roxie and Little Roxie. Check out extensive calendar of offbeat indie films plus mainstream on occasion. Good people running the show(s)!

Great location. Good selection of movies

Such a fun place to see a movie. Nothing like the Roxie.

This was my first time at the Roxie and even though I had passed by it several times when I lived in the area I had never ventured inside... until now. The space isnt anything to brag about but its kind of a cool feeling to be able to see indie films in a known spot in SF while youre helping support local a business or charity that the films proceeds go towards. Id bring a cushion of your own because the chairs are a bit uncomfortable. Other than that, grab some candy and go enjoy the show!

Really cool vibe and easy going staff. They have a filter for water which is cool if you like to carry a water bottle otherwise they have a good variety of drinks and of course popcorn. I like the variety in movies they show, will be coming back here.

An old favorite. Great spot to catch old weird stuff. Will always come back to the Roxie.

This is not a spectacular theater in the technical sense; the screen isnt huge, the seats dont massage you, the popcorn...um, actually, the popcorn is pretty good. But the reason to be here is to see a curated set of films that are unpredictable. Here you see films that are hard to describe to someone, but youre still talking about years later. Here you discover genres of films that your work friends only start noticing eight years later. So it is a spectacular theater in that way.

I get why the Roxie exists and to whom its trying to appeal. Its just every time I go there, I want to shower immediately after.

A true independent art house theater. I’ve seen unique films from festivals.

The Roxy is an independent venue that is experimental and community forward. It holds maybe 250 in its larger of two theaters. Nice projection, Good popcorn lots of space in the aisles and supports independents like no other theater in the Bay area. Very worthy of anyones patronage. Support your local independent theater!!

Nice theater with ornamented touches that remind you of its history. Clean, with an intimate experience. I saw the 48 hour film festival there. Id recommend

Good, small theater to see indie films. No frills, plenty of seating and walking distance to bart.

Always great movies and sweet staff!

I love this theater. We need to do everything we can to make sure their doors stay open.

It was pretty cool first time there the people were respectful nice. The only thing is that it gets really dark inside when the movie comes on so you have to get there before a movie starts so you can find a seat.

Love the Roxie! Excellent programming all year round. Dee-licous popcorn. Great staff. Became a member this year and its worth every penny! Get to support an incredible institution, see amazing, curated films and have insta-dates with my loved ones. I would give the Roxie 10 stars if I could.

Great place for an authentic indie cinema experience

Best avant-grade theater venue!

Great movie theater with a lot of character. I wish theaters like this were around more so we could have more chances to see certain gems of cinema

A landmark in the city, always presenting good films. Whether is at the little Roxy or the big Roxy, is a pleasant experience every time!

I went to see a film at the Roxie the other night and it was a great experience. From the guy selling me the tickets to the comfortable seats and authentic feel of the theater, I was extremely pleased. The film was amazing as well .

I like supporting independent theaters but I havent had the best experiences here. One night we were the only people that werent part of this insanely crazy group of old people that were super loud in the little Roxy, which wasnt the most fun. The theater emailed us to be there by 6:15 otherwise our tickets might be given away, but the box office didnt open until 6:03. The other time, we were waiting for a movie festival and the staff ( which may have been from the festival) was really rude and not good for keeping us informed. I like the theater but its not the best customer experience.

Great place to watch a movie. The concession choices are great. Ritual coffee, Salt and Straw ice cream!

Nice small theater showcasing local talent.

The Asian lady behind the ticket booth is very rude and downright mean. The theater itself is decent, but small. They will pack you inside the entrance while you wait for the previous movie to finish. The overall experience was very unpleasant.

No air con and only two toilets. Fun place to see a movie if you want to go really old school. On the plus side you wont pay multiplex prices. On the downside Ive been spoilt by comfy seating in multiplexes and after 30 mins day in a seat here I felt like my neck was seizing up!

Cut and polished gem of a tiny theater

Good venue for independent movies. They screen a good collection of independent and foreign films. The larger theater is narrow and long and the seats are not the best, but I see a lot of good films there.

A classic SF theatre in the heart of the Mission! Great variety of films and shows. Love to support the small, local theaters to balance out the AMC blockbuster crowds

Great local film screenings

Such a local gem. Keep an eye on the movie schedule and visit

Great place to see movies before everyone else!

Fun place. We were told seating would begin at 9pm. We arrived a bit early. We had to wait about 25 minutes. I asked the woman in the box off explaining it was difficult for me to stand in line due to disability. She said we could come right in. Otherwise it was a good experience. They have real buttered popcorn and a good selection of treats for purchase. The staff was friendly and helpful

The Roxie is a San Francisco gem! A historic, not-for-profit theater that has tons of amazing independent and box office hits! They have fresh popcorn with real butter, sodas, beer and candy! A great theater with lots of fun events, and good food and drink options in the area :)

Beer and great ambiance!

Great theatre playing independent movies and some bigger titles. Really well organized around holidays and themes.

It is an amazing place, with a very good selection of movies and documentaries. It is a great place, but it needs some improvements. People should go there and support this movie theater. The staff there are nice and friendly.

Very nice cinema with good movies!

Great selection and still going strong, hopefully for many years to come!

Chairs are old, feel like really old cinema that hasnt been preserved

Cozy theater to watch indie films.

Thank goodness for the Roxie, serving up alternative cinema and experiences you simply cant get elsewhere. A real gem.

A really cool venue for all kinds of movies and film-related activities. The theater is a bit small though.

Best movie theater in SF

Having read the mixed reviews of this theater, I was very pleasantly surprised. It was clean, well maintained, and had no noticeable smell (I love the Balboa, but it smells like pee). I saw Postcards From The Edge, and the sound and protection seemed spot on. Got there 30 min early to get a close enough seat. I didnt find the seats any less comfortable than the Castro or other old theaters. Popcorn was fresh and delicious and they had several beers in cans, including Sapporo. It is true that the cup holders are only every other seat though. I didnt notice any noise from the neighboring establishments, even though it was a Sunday night. The staff/volunteers were all really happy and friendly. They were even able to scan the ticket barcode off my phone.

Small, authentic, cozy. Thats why go there, support the community and so this epic theater survives in SF.

Theater is old style with no good food. Bathrooms are 1 and a time bathrooms . Seats are pretty comfortable.

Great movie theater with a lot of character.

Love this tiny theatre with hip movie showings ️️

Great small theatre to see a documentary film

Nice place to watch movies

Iconic theater in middle of SF mission district.

Old school cinema, with amazing documentaries and films. Today: Yayoi Kusama - a masterpiece. So ready for M.I.A soon

The seat cushions have gone flat but the previews were unique and the movie playback and audio were great. Small cozy theatre with atmosphere.

I came here to see a Japanese horror flick around Halloween. This is a great little neighborhood theater that shows well curated indie films.Pros: great non-mainstream movies, right in the neighborhood, great crowd, fresh popcornCons: smaller (but still significant) screen, older seats (smells a little funky).

Great selection of independent, foreign, and occasional mainstream films, and super friendly staff. The theater itself is older and a little run down, but its clean and reasonably comfortable and the environment doesnt detract from the movie-going experience.

Great old non profit art house theater! Terrific movies at a great price!

Nice place with unusual films.

They always offer interesting movies that I have never heard of but instantly find to be alluring, my only complaint is that i DONT AHAVE ENOUGH TIME TO WATCH THEM ALL!! Great community associated with the theater as well, beats the heck out of AMC or any of the other large chains that are frankly soulless organizations :) roxie has character and history in excess!

They only show good things. TWater/snacks are sold out front but no booze so keep that in mind if you want it.Only beware theres no assigned seating and the theater is fairly flat, so people queue up early to get their spots sorted out.Another beware factor: theres one booth for entry that counts both will call and time-of sales, the line can get quite long.

Everything I love about San Francisco - diverse, quirky, smart - in one totally authentic historic neighborhood theater. Having a membership made me love it - so I can see whatever I feel like without worrying about paying for individual tickets. Peanut oil popcorn and soda in the can makes it delightfully scrappy.

Saw Kibakichi, an obscure Japanese film about a Werewolf Samurai Warrior with my friend here back when I first moved to San Francisco in 2005. We were incredibly stoned and transfixed by the oddball movie.More recently my girlfriend, friends, and I went to see an anime called Mind Game. Went to their smaller, cozier theater this time and the experience was great.I love these sort of places and the kind of media they play.

I love that this theater still exists. It often plays movies that I havent even heard of but its a really great venue. Its a very old style and its really beautiful. Its also a great location, in the middle of the mission!

Very cute indy theater. We will be back.

Cool art house theater experience!

Cool theater with great films new, old, independent, and foreign. Great popcorn & a variety of delicious canned beers. We had fun watching Looney Tunes cartoons Saturday for their popcorn for breakfast series. More morning cartoons, please! Thanks for the foreign films too!

Cute, intimate indie theater. Seating is somewhat comfortable. Sound is ok. Great place to see movies not playing anywhere else in SF.

A clean and fun independent theater. Good popcorn!

Quirky, independent cinema showing a wide variety of films from giallo horror to current documentaries. Not fancy, but the staff is friendly and the sound is excellent. Seats are a bit old and only moderately comfortable but being able to see some of these movies on the big screen more than makes up for that.

Great indy films. In very cool neighborhood with lots of great restaurants for pre or post movies.

This is the oldest continuously-run movie theater in the US. Ive seen quite a few films here, including a number of films that I made myself. Theres a very nice community feeling to this theater.

I love watching movies at the Roxie. The seats arent the comfiest but the venue feels grass roots and they play relevant movies.

Wonderful theater and great customer service

Some of the theaters only seat 10 people or so. Its a great, unique SF experience to watch an indie film on a screen a little bit larger than your flat screen at home and basically in someones living room with rows of seats. Havent seen a movie there in 5 years.

I really enjoyed watching movies at Roxie. They also have good popcorn!

Fantastic theater with a fantastic history. Great staff, great beer choices and an artsy/wacky selection of movies.

Always great and relevant films

Good documentaries and revivals.

A small theater used to play independent movies. I was there with friends to watch a film festival of short movies on trail running as an example.Located in the Mission District, its close to some good and cheap eats. Not exactly the best location and they dont have leather seats, but it makes for a good place to host some local events or to watch some small, independent or foreign movies.

I love the Roxie! This quirky independent theater has been around forever and they do a great job with the programming. There are two screens, and theyre pretty much always playing something youve never heard of. Theyll do film festivals (like the First International Cat Video Festival for Humans, or more serious festivals), indie movies, documentaries.I never go to this theater expecting the show to be good, but rather go with an open mind ready for something to either delight me or leave me amused by how insane it was.This is my go-to place for a quiet night out.

This non-profit cinema does wonders for the film student community. Thank you for everything, Roxie!

Old classic 60s style theatre in the Castro district of San Francisco. A real blast from the past.

Very cute historic Thearter. Must see a movie here, at least (1)

Got to drop in for a cool screening of a foreign film. Definitely old school vibe to this place. They dont seem to be strict on bringing in your own food or drinks.

Independent movie theater showing documentaries, indie films, and cult classics, always an interesting show

Great for what it is. A small intimate movie venue.
