Our experience at River Oaks Theatre did not start out so great. We had to reschedule our tickets,…read moredid so through a phone call to the theatre a few days prior, then showed up to discover no tickets had been reserved for us at a sold out showing. We were not happy. The ticket agent at the front notified the manager who came to talk to us, get some clarification on what had happened and see what he could do to remedy the situation. He (regretfully we did not get his name) went above and beyond to make us happy. He had seats and a table moved into an available space, provided ticket passes and numerous other compensation for the missed step in ticket rescheduling. We had a wonderful experience watching the movie in comfort with good food and spot on service. We will definitely be returning. Any establishment that provides such high quality service deserves much support!

Tickets were on the pricier end especially since it was a Thursday night, but not a big deal. The workers were friendly, and the seats were EXTREMELY comfortable & cushy... I still think about them to this day... I also thought it was nice how movie viewers could order food and the workers would come serve it on a platter! I'm not too familiar with any deals or memberships that the River Oaks Theatre may have compared to its big name competitors, but I highly recommend everyone to experience a film here at least once! Also there is ample parking nearby, but can't speak on it too much since I was dropped off.

But when you think IMAX you think of those cheesy nature videos, but that is not the case anymore, the Wortham IMAX plays recent movies too. I came here to watch Harry Potter. I must admit it's a different type of crowd, a much more mature crowd, and the children that do come are more well behaved or with their parents. They are not free to roam like at the other theaters. Not a bite any parenting...but I'm JUS SAYIN'! Plus after the movie you can check out the museum!

How much do we have to spend to get the A/C turned on?!…read more I went this past Sunday to see the Devil Wears Prada 2 (for the second time; first time I saw it at iPic). Tickets are cheap: $30 each. Wine was a rip-off at $20 a glass for table wine (cocktails at iPic are $10). We ordered two glasses without realizing it'd be $40. The bartender had already pour our glasses before we could change our mind (and wish she would have alerted us that for $10 more we could have purchased the entire bottle... So almost $100 later, we are in theater 7 where it was stuffy and hot as hell; people were sweating. I had my jeans rolled up to my knees and eventually went to the concession stand for cups of ice water and they gave me cardboard boxes to serve as a fan. That's just ridic. Def can't blame the staff because they're mostly teens. But management, corporate, and even Nicole Kidman--take notice and fix this stat. For now, we're just gonna go to iPic because you spend about the same amount and for a much more enjoyable movie experience.

There was concession stand with popcorn and candy, and sodas. It was very well maintained by the organizers. The hall itself is brilliant. Has a picnic'y, fun, open air vibe to it. The seating can be on the pre-set cushioned stairs, or on the special chairs close to the screen. Unique looking comfy individual sofa, these got full quickly so could not sit and try.... The audience was from all walks with kids, families, students, and probably the couple beside me were on a date .... basically multipurpose crowd, to get their burden off for the day and put their feet up ( literally!) and watch a family movie - it was nice. Its not exactly a theater so the lights remain on but thats ok, there were tiny tots running around so the lights on was more essential than not. Lovely and laid back. I hesitated to write about it lest it get full during the next event , but then I figured, it is in such a centric place, it WiLL get full eventuality, might as well write and get my first review badge .... Lol Looking forward to attend more events.

Bring a fan or chairs to set up outside if you're not watching in your car. Recommend to buy your tickets a head of time: the attendant can help purchase tickets but the way also check for your headlights to turn off during the movie. Tickets don't open until the day or so before movie. Audio comes on a FM radio channel- car battery needs to be on or bring a radio. We arrived @ 7:30 for a 9:00 PM movie, there was already a line for prime spots but it's worth getting there with about 1.5 hours to give to allow for checkin, finding a decent spot, and getting set up/going to the bathroom (porta potties were quite clean). They have a small concessions stand and one food truck when I went. Ground was wet so had to deal with a not so great parking or walking to the porta potty situation. Very barebones place but you get the experience you prepare for!

Charging $12 a person for a mosquito-infested grass field full of potholes, one filthy porta-potty, no outside food, and a single food truck was nothing but a cash grab.

Very sweet but it sets the mood. Very interactive, I got to chug a beer. Line Star - my kind of beer. Not a bad seat in the house. My opinion, the back row offers the best seat as not as jammed in and on a bar stool - but not interactive that I saw. Middle rows has a back to it. Front row has no back. Drinks are pricy. All in all, we had a great time. Franks Pizza is across the street so grab a slice before and after.

The ambiance, setting and stories were wrong for the event as it was coined. If you want to play hip hop or 80's music change the description of the event. I attended a night with Dracula at the Polk theatre in Lakeland... and this event was spot on! I do not know if this is the same company, however I did notice that one of the actors was the same and he was actually the best actor there! P.s.... Give a theme people can dress up too. It creates a more memorable adventure! And... say dress to impress. It might help people that love to fish keep that shirt on the hanger till they take out the boat!

I was thinking speakeasy, dark, smokey, tables set with candles, nope. White glossy chairs were set up in a fashion that channeled a wedding, sun streaming in, high vaulted ceiling, room painted white, you get it.. I couldn't get in to it. The first cocktail was a blueberry lemon thing. 0 flavor, 1% booze. Pretty much all the cocktails were anemic. The 3rd was awful. Looked like grape Kool-aid & tasted like lemon juice. I skipped the last one. The "troupe" recited 4 short stories by Poe. The energy was up but there was too much schtick, it was not entertaining. Overall, I would suggest avoiding The Haunted Tavern. It will not be $50 well spent.
