Doors open 45 minutes before the movie starts so if you want to avoid the line and get your food right after your order it then thats the time to go. I went with my wife and the theater only had about 15 people by the time the movie started (it has space for over a hundred), which was surprising for a Friday night. The seats were comfortable; we chose two with a table that runs in front which was nice since we didnt have our food/drink in a lap tray. The video and audio were great considering it was only $9 a ticket. Would definitely go again.

This place is a community center, not just a bar. Very classy, lots of space, superb food and a decent selection of drinks. Theres a hotel, a pool (all Bothell residents swim free!) and a theater on site. The theater is the best around: you can order adult beverages, burgers, etc., and the price for an evening showing is less than anywhere nearby. Had a few work parties here outside by the fire pits. Always a good time.

Quaint single-screen theater that serves food, beer, and wine from a small menu. The seating does not lend itself to comfortable dining. There are few places to park a plate and ingress/egress is tight. (Cinebarre is better at that.) And you have to order your food in the lobby. (Cinebarre takes your order at your seat.) But the seats are comfortable. I wish they had TV trays for the handicap seating.

First visit was a bust, terrible service, bad food, meals coming to us at different times, overcrowded. Decided to try again - waited 1/2 hour for our drinks to arrive, appetizer came much later. Dinner took forever and lacked flavor. Our waiter was honest, genuine and personable. Have decided to stay away from McMenamins for a long time.

A busy spot with good food, beer, drinks, movie theatre and live entertainment. Popular with adults, kids and dogs alike. Sometimes the wait can be long, but its well worth a visit, especially the outdoor seating under the stars. Check out the art in the schoolhouse turned hotel, recollecting the history of the school and surrounding town.

So much fun! The Anderson School has multiple bars and restaurants, places to hang out outside, a movie theater, a hotel, a pool, and just a really fun atmosphere. I keep coming back, and Ive only come to like it more with time. Its very popular, so be prepared for crowds.

If you really enjoy having a GREAT experience !! I loved the whole time i was here and the way I was treated. The staff here have build the community from the ground up. I really like the history of every location and this one blew my mind. You should be here.

Quirky, comfy, casual, whimsical mega destination built in the middle of nowhere, but smack dab fast in the path of booming expansive progress. Tons of high density living space booming all around... Almost like the McMennamins developers had a crystal ball!

I really enjoyed this movie theater, it was cool, unique and intimate providing food and drinks with comfortable seating. We watched Despicable Me 3 which was the only movie showing and there was less than 15 people total. I will definitely come back!

Ive never been to a place like this before and I love it. Some of the most friendly staff ever and the food was pretty good. We sat outside next to a fire pit and got to listen to some pretty decent live music. What more could you ask for.

This is a really unique night out with someone. Many different establishments set about a courtyard (old school?). There are open pit fires for cold nights. You could spend an entire evening here walking around or sitting by a fire.

Awesome atmosphere with a very historic smell and feel. Classically good McMenamins food and beverage served before and during the movie, with cocktails themed after the movie currently showing. Very reasonable ticket prices.

Athena Kokich

Interesting concept! A school turned into various restaurants and bars, one with a swimming pool. You could spend a day or a weekend here just walking the grounds - I think I even saw a hotel. Will have to go back.

Amber McCarthy

Great theater and friendly staff. Loved the atmosphere. Parking lot fills up fast so give yourself plenty of time to find a spot and get a good seat. Cant wait to go back and try one of the restaurants!

Awesome! a little bit of everything for everyone. Cinema, good food, outdoor seating indoor seating, the bar, the games, the different locations, I just love to hang out with friends here.

Small screen, but tickets are cheaper then most theaters in the area, and theyll bring food/drink orders right to your seat. Menu is based on the Woodshop menu, burgers, tater tots, etc.

Ray Yarno

Not impressed by the wait time to get served. Very nice place but pricy compared to all other Mcminimans Service we had confusing. Nobody new who was taking care or our outdoor table.

Claire Hanser

I really love the atmosphere of this place; I come here often. However, it is probably pricier than the quality of the food necessitates, especially in the portion known as the Tavern.

Liz Wilson

Fun place to walk-around and people watch or play games while enjoying a drink or pub food. Drinks have been good, foods been marginal. Would like to stay at the hotel to try it out!

Paul Kegley

Food was pretty good. Beer was great. Only problem is the service is a little slow. The atmosphere is really nice. Pinball machines and pool tables. I will definitely go back.

Peter Kim

The food was ok, but didnt have high expectations. This place feels like an adult amusement park - and you can carry your drink almost anywhere! Definitely going back again.

Charles Crites

Great place to stay and dine. Staff always friendly, professional, and helpful. The North Shore Lagoon restaurant with the Tiki theme is a definite place to go.

Kate

Food and service were both good but the restaurant setting is fairly noisy. Great if you have kids but maybe not the best place for date night.

Zan McColloch-Lussier

Transportive atmosphere. Cheap movies with beer. Multiple dining options. The food is fine, but we go for the atmosphere.

Keith Bassett

A Portland experience, in Bothell. Love McMenamins. Good pub food, great beer, pleasant surroundings. Worth a stop.

Matt T.

I like the staff. Theater could be laid out better for food and drink but a movie and beer is a great combo.

Nick Andrewski

Food is going down hill... First beer was definitely infected. Other than that the mix drinks were good.

Dave Burroughs

Awesome place just busy on Friday and Saturday night due to so few options in the NE side. Go there!
