My girlfriend was a bit skeptical about my date night plan. Like the record exec in Springsteen:…read moreDeliver Me From Nowhere, it was an understandable response to something out of the ordinary. Transfer to the E or F train, go the entire length of the Q46 bus, walk a mile in the cold, then see the Bruce movie in a theater in a basement of an apartment complex. It's the day after Thanksgiving, but we have to leave soon since it's only playing at 5. Sounds simple, right? The North Shore Towers Cinema is so obscure that I never went there during my Queens years. But that the glorious era of the Utopia and Bayside theaters before AMC destroyed the locals, prior to suffering its own injuries in streaming times. (No I didn't consume chocolate egg creams on Ave. U and never saw the Brooklyn Dodgers but I do miss the old bagel place on Union Tpke.) I did check the theater out once to see Richard Gere's Time Out Of Mind. The frequent chatter was above Times Square levels. Yeah, I could have asked for a refund but I was here because it wasn't playing anywhere else. This time, the noise wasn't non-zero but it was far better than before. And after a hallway here and an elevator there, you may be surprised by this giant single-screen theater. Important for a movie about Springsteen, there was very good sound quality too, (minor spoiler ahead) helping to delineate the difference between an amateurish home recording and a rousing rehearsal of Born in the USA. The staff was friendly. Full disclosure/geography note: I am a public-transit advocate but it was a bit more convenient on a winter day to take Lyft from Little Neck. Express buses run to North Shore Towers but that only helps from Midtown. I have no insight about the on-site restaurants. There's nothing else in the immediate vicinity but if you're up for 29-minute walks or Lyft there are good options on Union Tpke., Northern Blvd. and Hillside Ave.

What...just happened? I mean, there are a number of things that never happen, and one of them is…read morethe closing then immediate reopening of a single-screen theater. Another thing that never happens is the purposeful adoption of arthouse programming for the same. It would be an unmitigated risk, unless you have a captive audience of people who enjoy good movies in comfortable surroundings, who respect other patrons and staff, and who don't wanna trash the theater...which describes North Shore Towers. Antoine L. is right about the takeover from Cinema Arts Centre, and as a premier arthouse cinema on Long Island, you really couldn't ask for a better development. Let's review: Malverne Cinema, gone; Manhasset Cinema now shows films like Kung Fu Panda 4; and, Cinema Arts Centre (in Huntington), god bless them, isn't located in Nassau County (and North Shore Towers is in Queens). Currently, there is only one arthouse venue in Nassau: Bellmore Movies, which is also a single-screen theater. Hopefully, the machinations behind Malverne's nonprofit initiative will come true, then we'll have two venues (it should be remembered that we're not getting new arthouse cinemas, we're just trying to keep or replace the ones we had). It's not enough to be an "independent" theater, a lot of independent theaters screen nothing but junk. The apparent miracle of North Shore Towers Cinema may be a unique situation, but it is much needed. It makes me wonder if the only problem with their previous model was that they weren't all-in on arthouse films, so I really hope this expansion of Cinema Arts Centre is successful. Maybe I miss the old popcorn machine in the lobby, but I'm not complaining. I just wanna watch good films.

I went to high school a few blocks away from this theater, but that was around 11 years ago. I came…read moreback to this theater today to watch Project Hail Mary and was taken aback on how different the Bay Terrace area looked. I did not order any concessions at this theater, but I can assume the food is just as good as other theaters. The check in process with staff is usually quick as they just scan the QR ticket code and point guests to the respective theaters. Guess what, they have reclining seats! Those are honestly few and far in between. My local regal theater doesn't even have recliner seats. I also adore the claw machines in the lobby, that is a nice new addition to the theater.

This movie Theatre IS OPEN. Status on yelp should be changed to OPEN…read more This movie theater is located on the main street of Manhasset in Nassau county New York. It was opened in November 1936. It's now one of the few remaining independent movie houses from the 30s and 40s on the main street in Long Island. It was originally a single screen theater, but in February 1980 it was turned into a three screen theater. But the art deco style façade and curved marquee remain. Clearview ran it until April 2019. A new operator opened it in April 2019. Closed for the shutdown in March 2020 reopened in May 2021. This is a very impressive Theatre from when you first walk in the front doors. You'll see a few chandeliers upon entering with an old style ticket booth to the right side but that's covered up now and you buy tickets at the concession stand. Another very nice chandelier by the concession stand Tuesday night, which is bargain night $5.00 for a ticket. The young lady and the other woman were very friendly. They offer alcoholic beverages, as well as regular soda and water. I bought my ticket for the movie. MASTERO. Got a large popcorn and a large drink. I went into one of the two theaters that are downstairs theater one. Nice comfortable leather seats 191 seats in theater one. The other theater downstairs similar number of seats. The theater upstairs is where the balcony used to be when it was a it was a single screen theater. Another nice chandelier as you are walking up the stairs to the theater. This theater is spacious also with 160 seats the largest screen out of the three theaters. But the ones downstairs are a very nice size. The projection was clear the sound very good from the speakers on the wall and behind the screen. Good attendance for a Tuesday night the popcorn was delicious. I'd highly recommend going to this theater. I think one of the nicest of the ones left on Long Island right on a main street in a downtown. Definitely more enjoyable than going to one of the big guys those multiplexes. The prices are better for the tickets and the concessions are delicious and good choices of candy soda, and some alcoholic beverages. Parking is a bit tough in Manhasset. No dedicated parking lot for the theater. I did park down a side street where they said 90 minute parking from 9 AM to 7 PM so get there early to try to get a parking spot. The only other parking spots are meters that you have to use coins for, the meter maid did tell me in the parking for Walgreens lot a little bit away from the theater that after 3 PM the guard from Walgreens leaves so you can park there without any trouble according to him. Again, definitely go to this theater. Nice neon marquee outside very clean and inside. Impressive with the Chandeliers and they even had a cool looking old-fashioned water fountain. Nice sized theaters with large screens and very comfortable seats with a good slope in each of the three theaters so you'll have no problem if there's someone sitting in front of you.

I bought the tickets in advance on Fandango ($13.04 adult & $22.72- 2 kids + a $7 convenience fee). This theater only has 3 movies, it's very outdated & dirty, no reclining seats, and sorry to say, everything about it is just disgusting. Upon entering, you have to wait in line to be called to the concession counter- then from there, you could order food/drinks & they scan your tickets. The girls opted for the large combo (large Sprite & a large popcorn) and a pack of twizzlers. They add butter on for you, only the XL size have free refills, no burgers/ hotdogs/ pretzel bites, stuff like that but yet they have alcoholic beverages. The Sprite had no taste- it was like sparkling water, switched it to lemonade & it was worse- it tasted old & expired with an aftertaste, trash it goes. The popcorn was not fresh and the twizzlers were hard. Idk how this place is still in business...

I hired Happy Little Brush Strokes as a painting activity for a bachelorette party, and the company was so easy to work with from start to finish. I reserved my date several months in advance because their calendar fills up quickly! You're able to choose one of the paintings from their website and adapt it to what you need. I chose to paint full-sized wine bottles (and place fairy lights inside of the bottle so it lights up!) since the bachelorette party was "wine themed." The price was $30 per person for the experience. I believe if you choose to paint a canvas, it's $25 per person. Happy Little Brush Strokes came all the way out to Greenport, Long Island to do this activity. The instructor, Bob, was an absolute delight, who was filled with so much positive energy! He provided everything we needed for the event (paint, brushes, water cups, the wine bottles, fairy lights). The only thing we needed to provide were tables, table cloths, and chairs for our group of 7. The experience took just over two hours, and everyone had an amazing time!
