What a fantastic job they have done. Cinema lab is the company responsible for the redesign. They have a Theatre that they redid in South Orange, New Jersey. As well as in Colorado. Now there's a beautiful pub upstairs where you can get drinks and food as well. I had a delicious dry aged burger with french fries. The service was great and the food reasonably priced and the burger juicy delicious great flavor. Crispy french fries The theater room itself is really very nice now. Bigger screen. Upgraded sound system. Very comfortable chairs. Not like the rocking chair reclining seats at AMC. But these are wonderful. It's a whole nice experience you can go and have some food and drinks in the pub even if you're not going to see a movie. But it's perfect place to go for dinner and a movie. A lot nicer than just dragging off to AMC for a ridiculously priced popcorn and Microwaved food. Definitely come here and check out the pub and of course catch a movie in the theaters downstairs The Theatre building itself is 100 years old. Downtown new Canaan is lucky to have this wonderful Theatre.

The renovation is beautiful and respectful of the original building. I take every guest who visits us here. We're lucky to have it.

I brought it back-also the cup was so cheaply made that I almost spilled it all over me-and asked for a bottle of water in exchange. He wanted to charge me $3 for it. I said the soda was $4 and undrinkable. He gave me a cup of water from the soda fountain. Horrible customer service. I am an avid movie go-er and love having a theatre in my town, but this place is simply awful. Sad to see it go down the tubes. We were so happy when it first came back to town.

You aren't going to get recent films they feature primarily classic movies. It is a massive lot and they allow you to pick anywhere to park. The first film starts at 8:40 which I thought was late but due to the longer summer days it gets dark pretty late. The food wasn't crazy expensive but in retrospect I wish I bought my own fast food in. I ordered 2 hot dogs, a cheese nacho and mozzarella sticks for roughly 18 dollars. I only stayed for one film and it was easy to drive out the lot to leave in between the double feature but you definitely have to be smart about where you park. The only miscues is the address is a bit tricky to find. Easy to miss the turn. Also the concession stand light reflects on the screen.
