This is my favourite movie theatre to go to. Because it is in a new plaza, there's a new shop opening almost every couple of months. So it's always entertaining to come here and check out what's new. I like the artworks displayed around in the building. The VIP lounge is very comfortable and roomy. Even the washroom is very upgraded to individual stalls with toilet and sinks. The staffs are very nice and the place is very clean. read more

Arrive here early for your movie because the parking situation is quite crowded - especially when we went on the weekend. The VIP lounge here has areas that are brighter by the windows overlooking the downtown Markham complex. It looks like in the summer they open up their patio. Other areas are a bit more dimmer. The seating arrangements are limited to smaller groups unless you put tables together. We got here 30 minutes before the screening started and still had to wait for the theatre to be ready. They didn't seat us inside until 10 minutes before the screen time! If this is your first time with the VIP experience - keep in mind that the orders in the lounge are a different transaction from inside the theatre, but you can bring your food and drinks inside. The theatre here has more seats compared to others VIP theatres I've been to. Sitting in the middle row is a good view. If you were sitting far back from the screen as we were - you are looking slightly down towards to the screen. You can now order food and drinks through the app so it will be there at your reserved seat(s) after you check in/scan your ticket(s). They don't have TimePlay here so don't feel like you missed it if you are running late. read more

THE BEST WAY TO WATCH A MOVIE The vip section of Cineplex feels so good to be in. It all feels so much more luxurious and it is. The cocktails are really good I forgot the same of the one I ordered but it was tasty. The service is really good the waiters/ waitresses are standing by if you need anything and are very professional. The bar area is really nice and overall the decor everywhere is spot on. Especially the washroom so clean and nice. The seats are so nice and big and the whole room only fits half of what a normal theatre size would. Compared to a regular movie theatre his is a perfect place for a date to impress !!! Highly recommend ( if you can afford it, as it's not going to be the same price as a regular movie ) read more

Cineplex Cinemas Markham and VIP - Yum - Cinema Near Me - Markham, Ontario

This is actually a really pretty theatre in my opinion - one of the revolutionary buildings that is built in Toronto and GTA making me proud to call Markham my home! First off, I'm probably super happy of it because the building is new - it's kept quite shiny despite the couple of years it's been open by now. I felt like this cinema building had a soft opening, as there weren't a lot of food places that were open in this neighbourhood until the cinema opened! I never had a problem with parking, even on New Years eve for the fireworks. I do however believe that they should have made more parking spots in the garage below by making it multi-levelled, but I wasn't sure if it was because their plan was to make this an area where you won't need to drive into in the future, or that most people would have spots from the condos, that they didn't want to put so many spots in the parking. The cinema itself has a small arcade - i wish this was slightly larger. It's very convenient to visit besides that - the cinema is located right over the bridge, which you get a mini small view of Downtown Markham. read more

I think this experience was A-OK since I really didn't like the food they offer. I really liked the VIP experience. The chairs were great, but I didn't feel like it was that clean, I doubt they wipe down the chairs everytime. They were comfortable, but it was really hard to lean back. I like how you can eat while you watch movies, felt a bit like home. I ordered the chicken sandwich. The chicken patty was a bit soggy and the bun didn't taste that fresh. The fries definitely wasn't fresh, they were a bit soggy. Overall, the food quality was worse than any of the chain (Keg, Jack Astor, Kelsey). The service was acceptable, they came to us to take the order before the movie, it's better to come earlier to make sure you get your food before the movie starts. However, I think once the girl saw that we had the VIP HUMP day special she wasn't too happy. Not sure why. I did order a bottle of sparkling water which set me back about $6-7. I thought that was reasonable. Was surprised they even offer that! I think I would be much happier with this VIP experience if they offered better food selection and better quality food. I guess I'll be back. read more

Came here yesterday to watch Fast&furious 7 . Everything went smoothly, I found a parking spot within 5 minutes which was close to the entrance. The place looks modern and REALLY white. Everyone who works there are nice,polite and helpful. We found our way to the VIP room, its pretty much a lounging area for people to wait for their movie and eat. Inside the cinema the seats were leather and pretty comfy but a bit tight. Before I came here I thought that it would be very spacious and less seats. The food on the menu is a bit on the pricey side for small portions. Knowing the food is still a little overpriced I still had to try dill pickle appetizer that I craved for. The dill pickles came but my ranch dip that supposed to come with it did not. It was so hard to wave down the waitress that was supposed to serve us, probably because she wasn't paying much attention. We ended calling another waitress over, it took 10minutes to get the dip and my dill pickles has gotten cold ! So we ended up paying $17 for a beer and cold pickles Oh and the washrooms are nicely designed, and very private !! Overall everything went well, and I will probably come back again ! read more

This Cineplex is a beautiful location - there's no doubt about it. There's also a wide range of food options at and around the theater. Unfortunately, parking sucks here. Yes, there is both above ground and underground parking, but both are so annoying to park at. The above ground parking close to the entrance is scarce, and the remainder parking is far, and you have to walk through traffic (of cars trying to get in and out of the underground) which really causes more traffic. VIP theaters are nice, but this theater was built much after Don Mills location and they do not have any recliner chairs here. If given a choice I would always choose recliner chairs, I'm not sure why Cineplex decided to cheap out at a new location. In my recent experience in the last year, they have started to play Chinese commercials before movies. Let me be clear: please stop! I find this very discriminating because there are never any French, Tamil, Vietnamese commercials (or commercials in any other languages). What's wrong with the good old Coca-Cola or Scotiabank commercials? Unfortunately, their attendance will not reflect the above points because Cineplex pretty much has a monopoly in movies and there is nowhere else to enjoy a movie. read more

Yeh VIP seats are super comfy to sit on. You don't have to worry about annoying the person beside you with your elbows since there is a big gap between you seat and theirs. Love the fact you can order from your seats. Note: service ends before the start of show time. Biggest complaint about the VIP seats is that the screen is not that big. At all. Would rather watch movies in IMAX. I will give 2 thumbs up for the sound quality. A lot of the new movies have 3D and non 3D options. Personally not a fan of the 3D. The colours on the screen appear much darker. The VIP should be experienced only if you have someone to impress or if you never tried it before. Took my mother, she loved it. I will give it 4/5 marks for the comfiness of the seats and service. Just wish the screen size was a bit bigger. read more

Nice spacious venue. Did not appreciate the look down by the staff when we showed our tickets to enter the VIP section. People were making their orders late, so the staff members were still walking into the theatre in the dark when the movie had started to serve food and drinks. May be best to have last orders 15 minutes before lights out? This inconvenience is not VIP treatment for the rest of the audience. The Cineplex magazines were also all gone at 5pm. No refills? read more

How exciting. Markham gets a new movie theatre! And a VIP one at that! I do love how there is a large and spacious underground parking lot here. Perfect for snowy and rainy weather! I also like how you can order food and drinks in the VIP seating (but only if you arrive before the movie starts). The VIP seating is nice. However for the price tag, it really isn't too much special. These are not the lie down chairs. In fact they don't even move back. It is spacious and come with a pull out tray for you to put your food. Food and drink quality is decent. I like their meat tray, cocktails, and also the mac and cheese bites. I also like there is an arcade in the building. Sometimes it's just nice to have these things to kill time before the show. Is it worth it? Up to you to decide. The price tag is a bit steep for what you get but once in a while, it's nice to just splurge. read more

I like how everything is clean and there is an abundance of show times. It is quite convenient indoors with easy access to many restaurants. I don't like the parking situation of this Cineplex. Although spots are plentiful at ground floor and underground, it is usually very full and make it a long trek to the building. After you get in, the box office is located downstairs and often unmanned or understaffed. Their ticketing standalone machines however is oddly located in a completely separate area so the whole premise just seems ill thought out. There are lots of games upstairs, so I've seen families bring their kids just to the arcade. Concession is a disappointment...how can you not have the fancy pop machines? This was supposed to be the newest and greatest theatre in town like the other Cineplexes in Richmond Hill, Scarborough and Vaughan :( read more

Second time here today. I came last Friday night with my hubby. Having kids now, I've not been to the cinema, on a Friday night, for over 10 years. Does nobody go anymore? The place was dead and the movies were all $7.99 too. The movie theatre is nice, it's brand new, after all. Nothing to complain about really. Access doors are not all open yet. Could do with some signage, not many staff members about that you can ask for info. Concession stand is cheaper than the old FMP location. My only real gripe is the elderly gentleman at the ticket check. He's so miserable. Was no greeting, thankyou or enjoy your movie. He should not be there. Even the concession stand lady was lovely and polite. Movie going is a total experience, that you pay for, he adds nothing to your experience. read more

Let's start with the customer service. Or lack there of. The people at the ticket sale booth are almost non-existent now, with them opting to use self-serve kiosks instead. I can't help but notice they were installed right after minimum wage went up too. I guess that's one way to drop both costs AND customer service. My last VIP experience was rather sub par too. I'm guessing the cleaning crew were running late so we were let into the theatre a little late. Which is fine, but holy, there were WAY too few people taking orders. My group of five were literally getting our orders taken when commercials started and didn't get them until after the film started. Wouldn't have hurt to push the film back five to ten minutes, would it? I know everyone hates commercials, but can we leave out the random Asian commercials? Like seriously. They show Asian movies at the theatre (which I think is a neat concept for that audience) so leave them for those. I've still had very few problems with the regular films, but if this weren't easily the most convenient location to watch VIP films, I'd consider going elsewhere. read more

The Cineplex at Downtown Markham is a significant upgrade from their old location at First Markham Place. I've been here a few times, but most recently to watch "Avengers: Infinity War" for the VIP showing. The theatre is fairly clean, but the menus could probably be replaced sooner than later. There was some kind of sauce on it (why do people grab the menu with messy fingers is beyond me) and got pretty messy. There aren't any napkins easily accessible either so I had to go outside and come back in. We were thankfully able to order hot water free of charge as well, so it was pretty nice as the weather was cool that evening. I've ordered appetizers to share before and the space you're given is apt to dine on. More space could be given. The prices for dessert and candy is quite high though so I can't really justify making those purchases at the theatre. The seats are comfy and the overall movie experience was pretty good. I only watch VIP for the really big films, and a once-a-year sort of occasion as the prices are just a bit too high, especially if you are not going to buy food. Overall it's good, I'll be back to see other movies. read more

New location, some parts inside the building looks very fantasy like even though construction inside is still in progress. VIP lounge is large and good choices of seating. Food was great, actually I was expecting bar food quality and instead received what can be compared with some of the good restaurants out there. Calamari was so good that I forgot where I last had calamari that taste this delicous. Sampler platter, was amazing. Would you believe if I commented about their nachos with special salsa that felt like a small meal in your mouth instead of just an apetizer. Best part was only the VIP tickets for the movie cost you a little premium. You need to show these tickets to get inside the exclusive lounge. The food was a little cheaper than some popular bars out there. Calamari was $10 and the sampler platter was $17. Right after we chomped down the food we picked our beer glasses and walked straight into the comfy cinema to watch the new Avengers. Felt like a million dollars. The screen is a little small, specially if you sit at the way back. Good amount of leg room, clean new seats (since this is a new location). Movie starts and after about 20 minutes I could hear a grunt noise. This was non other than my buddy fast asleep and snoring, blame the super comfy seating and food prior to that. Service at the lounge, I'll leave that for another day. Would definitely recommend others to experience the VIP atleast once. read more

This is my go-to movie theatre. I've been here multiple times. Their underground parking has heating, so you don't have to worry about freezing, and a plus, they cover the whole parking lot with artwork. In the VIP section, they have a lounge, bar, and snack bar. They even have individual stalled washrooms. The VIP theatre seats are the best. They're comfy, have their own table, and plenty of leg space. Definitely recommend going to the VIP section. read more

I visited this theatre for the first time last week and was surprised at how nice it was. It was really spacious and pretty empty on a Friday night. I'm not sure if all the theatres are AVX or VIP but the AVX theatre was nice. We arrived ten minutes after the film has started and still managed to get great seats. The concession food was the same as all the other theatres. It tasted good! Yes, I would go back to this theatre. :) read more

We always loved the service from Cineplex Markham VIP. They're always cheerful, nice and never hesitate to bring us extra cups of ice water! We came here to watch the Accountant for date night. Usually we only order a small popcorn and a drink, but the FHubs felt like ordering food food (wow fancy right he's going all out ). I felt like eating a salad, and the Chophouse Salad had all my fave salad ingredients; romaine lettuce, tomatoes, smoked bacon, avocado, corn, roasted red peppers, grilled chicken and ranch dressing!! When it came, it was jam packed, I was so overwhelmed!! It was beautifully plated, I was super impressed! Although it was a bit hard to mix in the ranch sauce because it was so jam packed, it was delicious!! The savoury flavours were so palate pleasing. Everything tasted really fresh, the chicken was juicy and perfectly cooked. I was surprised. It's restaurant like quality for food and service but you're being served right in your comfy seat....at a movie theatre! read more

Modern decor, clean and spacious uptown theatre with underground parking. What else can I ask for? Went for the VIP seating for a 2 hours+ movie and enjoyed the comfort in these huge leather seats. It is also a nice option to arrive early and be able to order food and drink at your seat prior to the movie. This place is my pick for watching movies now on. read more

This newly built movie theatre is beautiful! The first time i came here i parked underground and the artwork was a really nice touch! The facility has security underground and on the main floor with surveillance everywhere. Dont be worried about parking your car anywhere :) Ive been in the VIP section twice now and its defiantly worth a try. The food is way over priced and i would rate the taste a 3/5. I ordered the California burger with poutine. Wasnt a big fan of the root beer float either. The only reason i got the food was because of the hump date promo. (2 tickets and 2 entrees for $60) The servers and customer service were great 4/5 And the washrooms are individual which is also really nice and private. I would come back to see a movie with s better experience but i would hold off on the food and stick to the popcorn (even though tickets are like $25 each!) read more

It's about time, Markham! Nice theater compared to the old Markham cineplex theater. Honestly lacks signage and parking though. I could see people getting lost and just circling the lot again and again trying to find spots. There's an underground parking lot so I just go straight there. The theater itself is nice, mostly because it is brand new. Again, hard to find where you need to go at first. As for seating, I really was looking forward to not being kicked by the guy behind me but nope. The seats are still fairly close so I am constantly feeling the person behind me nudging my seat. This is why I hate going to watch movies. It's noisy, people are taking, you gotta listen to wrinkling snack bags, and your seat is constantly kicked. Ugh. Was hoping for a more spacious theater but I guess it's unavoidable. Watched imax tonight for a change and it was very good 3D quality. But the noise was just loud.. Not quite as balanced as I have experienced in other theaters. Food is over priced as usual. So not worth the money at all. People aren't trained enough so the orders are getting mixed up and the staff really like to talk to each other.... So again, don't waste money on the concessions. Movie quality is great and enjoyable. :) it's not the best theater, but it's definitely nicer than the old one. It's about time Markham got an upgrade. read more

Came here for the fist time to watch a movie recently and enjoyed my experience. This VIP Cinema replaced the older Cineplex in First Markham Place and is a massive and much needed upgrade for Markham. Why the 3 stars? Well it's as you would expect a Cineplex to be and ticks all the boxes of what a theatre would be. My concerns, which may be alleviated with future visits revolve around the following points. 1) Odd flow. The box office is on the main floor of the indoor mall it resides in, while the theater is up stairs and around the corner. If you're not familiar with the set up, as I was on this visit, it can make meeting up with others a little confusing. Plus when the box office line ups begin to get longer it ends up impeding the main corridor of the mall 2) Odd smell. Once upstairs safely I noticed a really awful smell in the entrance way to the theatre. It was a mix of urine in an underground parking garage, sweat and somehow popcorn. This might have been a temporary thing but many of my guests who joined me commented on the same smell. It's not exactly inviting and definitely something you need to hold your breath to get through.. yikes! I have yet to experience their VIP set up, so another star is definitely pending upon my next visit. Overall, it's a movie theatre. It has popcorn, a full food menu, drinks and movies. Check it out and let me know what you thought. read more

This location was first located in First Markham Place now moved to central Markham and it is in a new and upcoming area where many restaurants are nearby. The location is easy accessible and many parking available. They have underground parking and on surface parking for restaurant goers and movie goers. The food selection available is endless. The decoration is beautiful and updated and seatings are comfy. Recommended for any movie lovers, perfect place to be in for Tuesday! They have VIP option and available to order food from your seat! Perfect date location or family outing! Overall, great experience for any movie lovers. read more

Access: It has the worst access points lol. If you are traveling north from Birchmount, you are 'safe' as all you need to do is turn right. If you are traveling west on Enterprise, you better start praying because turning left is impossible. One time I got honked for waiting in line to turn left, you must be kidding me. Alternatively, you can turn left onto Birchmount but then you might never get to turn left again. Parking: Access sucks, parking will make you cry. The biggest tip is to carpool if you come on a Tuesday. Seriously. I don't know why they have such a big parking lot for employees when half the time it's empty. The people who built this place didn't think too far in advance. Honestly the cinema is pretty good, but if it takes me so long to turn left and find a parking spot, I might as well go elsewhere. On the bright side, it is in Markham, and things are still clean =) read more

Finally a refreshingly new theatre for Markham. Such an upgrade when compared to the old theatre that was located in the First Markham plaza (ohhhhh the memories! Lol) This theatre is upstairs, with an array of restaurants on the ground floor (subway, south st burger, Thai express etc). It includes underground parking that is accessible by elevator from inside and fairly big! But it does fill up quick as GoodLife allows its members to use it (obviously) This theatre may not actually be bigger than the old one but it feels ALOT bigger. It also boasts a fairly big arcade as soon as you walk in. It also has a lot of food choices inside the theatre itself including Starbucks, pizza pizza and the average overpriced theatre goodies. I have experienced the VIP threats treatment here and honestly I think it's worth the extra few bucks. Ordering food and alcohol right from your extra comfy recliner is such a plus. The food available from your seat is also really good. I honestly wasn't expecting it to be as good as it was. I was impressed by Cineplex. Great theatre. Great location.. sort of a stupid set up getting into the parking lot, but once you're parked and inside.. everything is easy accessible. 3/5 for me!! read more

Going to have to go with 3 stars on this one as I feel quality has decreased over the years here Let me start by saying the upgrades to the theatre may have made the place more upscale, but I am old fashioned and prefer a more authentic movie theatre experience. Before when I would get popcorn from here it would be hot and freshly popped, seems like in the last 3-4 trips to the theatre my popcorn has been cold and even at times stale! They keep making the drinks smaller and smaller whilst also increasing the prices which is annoying. But that isn't just this specific cineplex's fault. I can do with a price increase but I want my big drink The theatre seating is very comfortable and they provide a decent atmosphere. My biggest complaint is the commercials at this theatre! They're all either extremely lame/sappy commercials or they're commercials in Chinese with Chinese subtitles, didn't realize I was watching a movie in Hong Kong , I mean I understand the demographic they're trying to target but at least keep some authenticity for the experience read more

After the good ol' nostalgic Cineplex Cinemas closed at FMP, the newly developed VIP theatre has opened its arms to the people to be the centre of the "downtown Markham" area. After coming here multiple times and having different experiences from regular movies to 3-D to VIP, I give this place a cool 4.5/5 stars for the sheer mass of the building and also the extra food places such as Chatime and South St. Burger to accompany it. The ticket booth is on the bottom and the theatres are on the top. I find this to be an interesting layout since it separates the two from each other, but I don't mind it. It also lets you admire the changing art pieces and the weird security guard that never moves. Service has always been good across the board. I've never once had a negative thought about coming here and I know it's very clean and everything is functional and not old since it was newly built. The VIP movies are luxurious. Very comfy. Lots of space for each person and it's quite private. I also really enjoyed the service and the food was decent (but don't expect much). The regular theatres are also quite good with comfy seating and I find that it's easier to find good seats here. Why not the full 5 stars? Parking is a b**** sometimes if you park outside. It gets full pretty fast but luckily they have underground parking. Always check if they're having promos with your Scene card because they often have half off movies or coupons and it could save a lot of money! I recommend this Cineplex. It's clean and spacious and my go-to for movies. read more

Fairly empty on weekdays (except Tuesdays). Underground parking is a bonus. Venue: 4/5 Well spaced seats. Service: 5/5 Never had a problem Environment: 5/5 Like any Cineplex. New everything. Washrooms: 4/5 Clean and rarely a wait. Worth it?: 5/5 Great time. I like this theatre. There is usually plenty of parking and underground is great for hot summer days, winter storms and raining days. The place is still very new so the seats are all in working order. The thing I have noticed is that it stops showing movies faster than Fairview and Yorkdale. A few places to eat outside for a before or after snack. For sure my favorite theatre. Location is great. read more

Markham Cineplex is one of the busiest places in Downtown Markham, and rightfully so. Totally unrelated but if you're into cars, come here on a Friday night and expect to see GTR's, Lambos, G63's and so on. (the Asian mafia love their movies). I joke. The theatre is one of the nicest and most modern theatre around in the GTA (compared to STC, Fairview, Richmond Hill, etc). The few seconds of customer service interaction has never been unpleasant (although the employees on many occasions look unsatisfied with their work, cheer up sometimes!) The VIP cinema is recommended if you've never tried it. It's great for a date night. You get huge personal seats, a menu to order food and drink which gets delivered to your seat, and overall just a really enjoyable experience. Definitely recommend trying VIP on a Tuesday. Parking here is pretty terrible, especially if you're going to look for something on the outside. I always park underground now because outside is always full, and sometimes I STILL can't find parking for a while. The good thing is people are always leaving so jus follow someone out. As all Cineplexes do, you get the opportunity to save with Scene so always bring your card. read more

We went to watch Star Wars in VIP. The service was nice. But I was really hoping for reclining seats. The only seats that recline are the first row, which would be an awful angle for watching movies. It was Saturday night, the theatre was really busy and rather chaotic, as expected. Experience was alright overall, but for $25 a seat, I would like to be horizontal while watching my movie. Just saying. read more

After hearing the hype for this new location, was glad to watch Jurassic Park here recently. This place has a huge, incredibly spacious interior, with mostly white sterile flooring/walls. I actually like this clean look, but I can see how others might prefer a bit more colour. Upstairs could definitely use more seating for those that decide to grab a bite before/after their movie - there's still plenty of unused space, so perhaps there's a plan in motion. The theater is conveniently located above a number of new restaurants and shops that should be opening shortly, including a ChaTime (so expect a ton of teens and young adults to be wandering about). The pretty decent Arcade/Gaming area opposite concessions will ensure this too. The concessions area was a pleasant surprise - in addition to the typical theater food, they offer burgers, poutine, and frozen yogurt. Part of the surprise was the very fair prices for said food. I actually wondered out loud to the cashier my belief that Cineplex Markham is merely luring us in with decent prices before jacking them up to the typically outrageous food prices at other locations hehe. The movie experience is pretty typical for a newer Cineplex. Didn't have a chance to try VIP yet, so cannot speak on that. Will be back read more

Review for VIP experience - Very pricey for a movie night out. It will cost around $100 for a night out for 2. The seats are leather and more fancy than the standard theatre but still not too comfortable sitting there for 2+ hours. They reclined a bit with weight. The middle divider between your partner is adjustable it make it a loved eat, but it does not transform completely to a love seat and the middle still has a hard bump that makes it uncomfortable for anyone sitting there. Admission is $25 for VIP seats. It's nice that you can reserve in advance and online. Once we got there, it was nice that there was a private door for the VIp (follow the red shaded flooring). When you get in there is a bar and bar dining area. A few monitors for sports. Nice private washrooms. We got to our seats and the waitress explained the menu. It is not the same menu shown at he front desk. Some items not there. We opted to order a few drinks (7-8$ each). They came in glasses which was nice to have instead of disposable cups. I ordered a dessert item - brownie ice cream ($7) it was mediocre, too sweet. It came in a disposable plate which I did not appreciate too much. Popcorn to share. In total we spent less than $40 for the 4 items. if we had opted to eat lunch or dinner there, it would be a lot more. Howver the pricing for the entrees is not bad at all its around restaurant pricing $14 for burgers or $11 poutine. As well full wine bottles are affordable too. $28 for their cheapest red and $30 for their cheapest white. The only thing I liked from the VIP experience was the ability to order alcoholic drinks for the movie. Else it was too expensive for the admission ticket. read more

I enjoyed coming here. Why? I was holding my booze all 'round the place, who wouldn't be? LOL This place is a definite upgrade compared to the one at First Markham Place. Concession stand was HUGE and everything was clean (maybe because it's relatively new). I came to catch Avengers 2 with their "Hump Date" special. It's basically two movies and two entrees for $62 tax in. It was a decent deal, considering the entrees were all $12 and above. I went in not knowing how expensive things were and was taken back by how pricey each dish was. I wanted a burger, but was told by my server not to get that. He said the patties aren't grilled, so I assume they're just microwaved/heated. That's not cool, considering the price they're asking for each dish.. I don't care how nice the place looks or how clean it is or how awesome the service is. So he recommended me the chicken wrap which was $14 if I remember correctly. The wrap was definitely a good choice because it was fresh and came out hot! The part for the movie I was most disappointed. When ordering the tickets online, it showed a huge gap between seats. As I entered the theatre to find my seats, I quickly realized I was conned lol. The seats were basically the same as before, with the exception of a two inch gap between them. There was a bigger cup holder and arm rest, which I liked. The seats were not as good as I imagined. Friends tell me I can recline, but I found that I was not able to. I had to push hard to recline a little (or at all). I assume the reclining seats are all at Don Mills VIP? lol At the end of the day, I only came for the movie and that wasn't a let down.. so I'm happy with the way it turned out. The movie and the booze together made the perfect concoction, all else doesn't matter. I'm a man of simple taste lol read more

Came here as a +1 for a Yelp elite movie screen event watching "McDonalds". Was super excited! The theatre is on the second floor and an interesting location as it is across from GoodLife and steps away from a bakery, go for tea, chat time and an izakaya restaurant. Good date night spot of lots to do in one place. The theatre is not that big and the staff here are pretty friendly and efficient it seems. From what I can tell the place is pretty well kept and clean. The crowd here is mostly yuppies (young working professionals). I'll have to come back to try the VIP movie experience. read more

Since this location is brand spankin' new, you can expect that the floors are still sparkly clean, the seats have not yet been subjected by mysterious stains, and the interior design is modern and classy. My only complaint is that it is really friggen cold in here! I know most movie theaters are well ventilated because let's be real, you're contained in a room with 200 odorous bodies for 2-3 hours at a time.. BUT this theater is just really chilly and I was already wearing a long sleeve. read more

No complaints, absolutely love the new theatre! Very spacious, lots of staff so few lines!

Great experience at this theatre, which is more like a lounge. Giant comfy seats and decent wine selection. Spotless individual washrooms. Will definitely return. read more

Finally after the long wait...Markham VIP opens its doors...One of the most impressive establishments in a very long time in Markham (excluding pan am) This place is sooo huge you can get lost.. it is still under some minor renovations as I think probably alot of businesses are bidding their way into here... This is a one stop place...from dinner to movies to drinks after the movies...All you need is to stay here... Me Va Me Express opened and it looks nicely renovated. Haven't had the chance to try it out yet but I definitely will... Cha Time - need I say more? my all time favourite BBT place finally made its way to Markham...love it!! Aroma Express - would you like espresso/latte after the movies? Underground parking is quite decent size but it can get quite packed during the weekends as this is probably one of the biggest theatres in York Region My first choice when it comes to movies! read more
