This is a very good place to catch a flick. Decent prices, especially during matinee. Also, it is small and cozy, with no more than 30 seats per screen. Screens are smaller, so it is not recommended you watch Mission Impossible here. However, for many indie flicks and dramas, this will suffice. Nice service as well. I asked for Cherry Coke and they didn't have it, but they made me a custom Cherry Coke using Cherry Syrup! Outstanding! This is compatible with Sinema, for those who use that app.
Excellent experience at this local independent theater. Concessions had organic and recyclable products. Stag was very friendly and helpful. Enjoyed the extra touch of staffer coming in to announce the movie, the upcoming showings, and thanking us for our patronage. Small but full theater, clearly full of fellow independent film entire enthusiasts!
This is a fun little movie theater where I always enjoy seeing films. They typically carry more independent films and documentaries so if you are looking for that this can be a good place for you. They have a good snack and drink selection including different beers and wines. Only draw backs to this place is it is a bit small so for movies that are in high demand they can sell out quickly.
Last night I went to the West End Cinema for the first time and I loved it! The staff was very friendly and the atmosphere was enjoyable. I was a little surprised at the size of the theater, but I liked the coziness. I'm used to the mammoth theaters out in Leesburg and Tyson's Corner, so it was a comfortable change. This cinema is definitely more my pace and I look forward to catching more shows there!
I give this place props for representing the indie movie scene. Aside from E Street, this is really the only other place in the city. They shut down for awhile and then opened back up under new management. The theaters are small but perfectly fine. They have these weird folding seats that are kind of like recliners. They are comfy but they give the place a sort of temporary vibe. Whoever picks the movies does a good job, they show some interesting and fun movies. My only complaint is that their last showings of the night are always sort of early around 8 pm. They serve booze, which is a plus.
Since E Street took over operations, it is the best it’s ever been! The seats are new and comfortable. Great concession offerings. Conveniently located. I used to avoid this theater if I could find the same movie at AMC Georgetown. Now I look at E Street West End first. It’s a gem!
We really like the Landmark Theater chain with a better variety at foods and a week-stocked bar for any kind of drink. The big comfortable reserved seating on a raked floor means no instructed views. Our favorite theater is the one in Bethesda, with a comfortable lounge to sit and wait for friends while enjoying the treats. They play the better, more interesting movies.
This theatre, nestled nicely in what seems like the basement of the Kaiser Permanente Northwest office building, is a solid value for weekday indie flicks. It doesn't have all the grand fixings of modern theatres, but will probably remind you of a well-built home theatre. It certainly shares the kind, relaxing atmosphere and lack of an overwhelming or loud crowd.
Great little theatre. Classy. Comfy seats. Snacks were not the greatest this time and we we disappointed because landmark usually has great popcorn. Staff was very friendly. Nice experience overall and will go again.
Two tiny theaters 40-50 people each? that show independent films. Very comfortable new seats were installed spring 2016. Interesting selection of concession food/drinks not just soda/candy/popcorn.
