    This is a beautiful little theater in the heart of Colonial Williamsburg. We went to a musical fundraiser for the Rotary Club here on a Saturday evening. There's also a little concession stand area to the left upon entering the theater. There are clean bathrooms. The theater is very clean with great acoustic ceilings. From what I understand, everything is played here from concerts, to plays, to meetings. I can't wait to attend more performances here in this theater!

    The Kimball Theatre: Seating capacity: 410. Intimate!😊

    Yesterday, at The Kimball, I saw Opera in Williamsburg perform Mozart's "The Magic Flute." This is a review of the venue, not specifically Mozart's work or the performing troupe. The normally intimate Kimball Theatre seemed claustrophobic with a sell-out audience. The Kimball, built in the 1930s, was feeling her age, as evidenced by the queues at the ladies' rooms during intermission. And little old ladies (we seemed to be a significant chunk of the demography) frequently do not do long lines well. Acoustics were excellent. The seats were comfortable, even after 3 hours of sitting on me bum. The Kimball, with a seating capacity of 410, is small enough so that entering the stage from one of the two aisles seems just as sensible as entering from the wings. There were no show-stoppers, however, and I intend to enjoy more productions at the Kimball in the future.

    Movie Tavern Marcus Theater continues to be my favorite theater in Williamsburg, and my experiences…read moreover the past couple of years have consistently been pleasant and never disappointing. The theater is always neat and clean, with a bright entrance and interesting movie posters. The café is welcoming, and the staff is a true highlight of the experience. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with a genuine smile and a welcoming attitude. The staff is incredibly friendly, polite, and patient, ensuring every step of your visit, from ordering at the café to having your food delivered to your seat, is seamless and pleasant. Their dedication to great service truly sets this theater apart. The food and drinks are a major highlight. There are many delicious choices, and everything is consistently tasty and served hot. The popcorn, in particular, is far superior and fresher than what you get at other theaters. I love the convenience of ordering food and an adult beverage right from my seat and having it delivered hot and quickly. The selection of on-tap beers is also a nice touch. The reclining seats with leg supports are super comfortable, making for a truly relaxing movie-watching experience. Best part is free refills on your popcorn, which is great since I like to take a bucket home with me :) Whether I'm catching a $6 movie on a Tuesday in one of the smaller theaters or a full-price movie in the main auditorium, it's always a great time. If you're looking for a theater with excellent food, comfortable seating, and friendly service, this is the place to go.

If I could've waited, I would've. 3. It was raining so the lobby floor was wet. Not a wet floor sign in sight. 4. The back row in Theater 8 is literally the same height as the row in front of it.. it's like the row was added on at some point. If you're too short, you can't see past the chair to see the whole screen. 5. The screen was small. 6. In the back row, we had to put the recliner down for food runners to get past. And that was several times throughout the movie. One food runner actually walked over my reclined legs as i was struggled to push the right button to put it down. Then they hit the tray table next to me and popcorn went flying. They definitely hurt themselves and i felt bad. But this is also probably a longstanding issue. 7. In one of the back row seats we paid for, you had to turn your head to even see the screen. Otherwise, you'd be looking at the emergency door because the screen doesn't extend into the POV of the chair correctly. The only good things from my experience were comfortable chairs, central location and great ticket prices (paid $26 for 4 tickets).

They also have outside play area for mini golf, go kart, baseball hitting cage and ice rink in the winter. We love going to the theatre on Tuesdays for half off price. One of the best theatres you will ever visit. Seats are world class with the best recliners and very comfortable. Screens are amazing and the audio quality is top notch. They have a restaurant and you can bring food inside. Arcade area is awesome for all age groups. Various things to keep yourself and your kids occupied for hours. Highly recommend checking out mini golf and go kart. If you're into baseball, you will love their batting cage as well. It has speed setup for various levels. They provide helmets and bats. Service and ambiance is great as well. Absolutely wonderful place to visit all year long.

    I'm sorry I have no accompaning photos for this review. Will try on my next visit…read more This mega theatre is located in City Center with on Street parking and nearby parking garage. It is a huge venue, ample snacks area, kiosk ticket purchasing and roomy restrooms. There is online ticket purchasing and seat selection. One time though I misunderstood the seats I chose and embarrassingly thought someone was in my seats. Anyway, is the actual theatres that are epic. The seats almost fully recline, with an attached swivel table and cup holders. There is no one's head blocking the view in front of you. The screen is a good size to enjoy the film. I guess they have HD screenings I haven't checked out. If you are on a date you can move the arm rest to get cozy, or if the film is a giant yawn you can fall asleep and not bother anyone! One time I had to sit closer to the screen than I prefer, but even that seat was fine for enjoying the flick. If you still like going out to movies, taking a stroll after around the fountain or hitting up one of quite a few nearby eateries, you can make quite an event of it! Or you can just pig out on a large popcorn and enjoy the film before heading home. Some theatres can't complete with home viewing these days, so if you do venture out to the movies, make it worthwhile with this movie watching experience.

As always, I would purchase tickets via Cinemark's website which is quick and easy. With each check-in, you can use the QR code from email or via Cinemark's website. For some showings, they have point offers based on showtime dates, mostly during opening weekends. And for quite a few, they only allow 24 hours until the point deadline was over. Thanks to such, I was able to save enough points to get 6 months of Cinemark Movie Club membership for free. Definitely looking forward to more discounts for the new year. Again, 2025 in the books. From Nosferatu to Zootopia 2, I can say we enjoyed ourselves here. 2026 here we come :)
