Cheap snacks and drinks are a huge selling point, but combine it with their constant five dollar ticket prices and you have a formula for repeat customers. Depending on how big of a movie and when you go (superhero movie opening night, for example) parking may be tricky, but this local historical fave of a big old movie house is worth it. And though the venue is old their presentation is not. Very good projection and sound quality wherever you want to sit, including booths and high top tables near the back in close proximity to their bar (which serves lots of mixed drinks or beer, also for reasonable prices). If you haven’t gone here before you need to check it out sometime... Especially if you’re from the area.

I really like this theatre and they always seem to have whatever movie is most hyped up playing. They have lots of seating and tickets are always $5. Sometimes if a movie has a lot of hype around it and lots of people are anxious to see it, they will show the movie a day before it is supposed to come out, for those that really want to see it. A few months ago me and my friends went to see Ready Player One at this theatre. It's location in the middle of highland swaure made it easy to get dinner and hang out before the movie started. I love this theatre and the whole aesthetic of it. If there is a movie that you want to see check if it is playing here. If it is, I highly suggest you see it here.

Went to see Black Panther here! Well...I view most all movies here. Highland Square Theater is part of the Hub of the Highland Square area. Most economical, intimate and historically nostalgic theater to visit. And you can also purchase alcoholic beverages, Adults only though!

Classic old fashion theater, no fancy stadium seats, but that honestly is part of the allure. Inexpensive concession stand, with a very cool bar at the back of the theater. There’s some cool high tops and booths at the top of the seating area. The restrooms need some serious attention, but otherwise, I don’t think you would need to address much. 30 years ago I remember coming here to see the Rocky horror picture show. Fond Memories indeed. Definitely a point of pride when it comes to my thoughts of the highlights of Akron.

I love this theater. The building itself is cool: it's an old historic building. It's also in a cool area of town, so it's easy to get some food or a drink before or after the movie. On top of that, regardless of time of day, tickets are only $5 for new movies and. It's clean, the staff is friendly, and they have a full bar. I come here quite often and have always enjoyed myself.
