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

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.

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.

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.

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!
