Quiet and cozy, this theatre is one of my favorite places in Seattle. Dont come expecting a giant screen playing big budget films. Instead, come check out a well-loved place run by volunteers who show crazy monster flicks and burlesque shows. Yeah, this place is crazy. Tickets are very affordable and it survives on the generosity of its patrons.

There is almost no better place to see a movie in Seattle. The sheer variety of films on their slate is awe inspiring. But a membership for added cool exclusive events throughout the year. You wont regret it.

This theater is definitely an experience. The theater itself is really neat. I like the small vibe it gives but the indie movie we saw was way out there. But the popcorn was good, so that makes up for it.

A real safe haven for the cinema They host amazing movies and give a chance for up and coming filmmakers It is small, yet full of charm. A great destination for a true movie lovers

The best movie theater in Seattle. Awesome volunteers, great concessions and a wide variety of movies on multiple formats (Digital, 16mm, 35mm and Video).

Grand Illusion transports you to another decade, every time you go The place is run by volunteers, so they play what they want. All the films are great!

Intimate theater (40 seats) showing a great variety of non-mainstream and classic cinema. Its the presentation piece of a local film organization.

Small, cute theater with about 30 person capacity. Seats were comfortable. They have nutritional yeast as one of the condiments for my pop corn :)

I love that it has this old historic vibe but the seats are tiny and if someone sits in front of you, you lose like 20% of screen visibility.

Love this place! Small screen, but its a very small theater. Cash or check only. Extremely well curated films.

A great cozy place with a cool couch in the back. Place is non profit so you feel good supporting them.
