This cinema is going through some transformation in making it a great place for family or friends…read moreto come together and watch a movie. The cinema was well maintained and kept clean. That's important. The seats in the standard cinema were comfortable. Sound system was good. Nothing special though. The ordering process is a lot smoother now with purchasing your snacks. I like the improvements.

We drove from Oakland to see a matinee screening of The Odyssey on 70mm IMAX. We had preordered…read moretickets in advance and were excited to see the film in this format. When we arrived to the theater and the employee scanned our ticket, he said that the "ticket had been refunded" and that there had been some sort of glitch with the website. We found out from a manager that the website had listed two IMAX screenings of the film at conflicting times and our screening was the unlucky one that was cancelled. Then we were pushed off to the side so they could take other people's tickets. Finally we were able to speak with a manager, who refunded the refreshments I preordered online. While I'm glad that we got that money back, I was disappointed with the customer service experience. The employees we interacted with were either helpless or indifferent and the manager barely interacted with us other than to look at the details in our phone. Once the refund was processed, he just turned to other employees to chat. We received nothing but a minimal "we're sorry but it was rescheduled", no apologies for the inconvenience caused, or offers to make it right or encourage us to return. (Even an offer of helping us reschedule to the soonest available screening would have been appreciated.) We found this whole experience to be frustrating and disappointing. The only notice the theater sent was an automated message stating the ticket had been refunded with no additional context or reason for the refund. The email could easily be missed or filtered for this reason. (My wife had just ordered tickets for a different movie that had been refunded so we didn't notice that there were two refund emails until we arrived to the theater.) The icing on the cake was that the automated refund did not include the $4/ticket service fee we were charged to prebook. Management refunded that for us when we pressed, but the fact we had to ask was unacceptable. It should have been included when the theater cancelled the screening. Given that this film is one of the most popular/anticipated movies of the summer -- one that hundreds of customers paid over $20 per ticket in advance to attend -- I find it somewhat appalling that Regal could not be bothered to send customers an email explaining what was going on and offering to make it right. It's alarming that a glitch of this scale happened to begin with, as this error seems to have occurred for multiple scheduled screenings based on other Yelp reviews. Because of this incident, we will not be returning to Regal theaters to see movies. I don't fault the individual employees for the incident - it's clearly something that happened on the corporate level, but the customer experience we received was lackluster, and I felt that employees could have been better debriefed/prepped by management for how to handle this situation, since it clearly impacted hundreds of customers. We planned in advance and booked tickets ahead of schedule so we could see this film in comfortable seats, but now screenings of this film are sold out for the next week unless we want to crane our necks in the front row.

So I've been going to the theater for a very long time and a few years back I would've given it…read morefive stars but I think I have to give it a 4 for right now The staff is always very kind and amazing and I think that we should support local theaters But something in the screen quality has aggressively changed for the worse It's hard to describe but a lot of the screens seem to be darker and the way that they've positioned some of the seats force you at the top row to look at this large wall that blocks part of the screen Like it's a good theater but you really do have to figure out which auditoriums have better screens and that's a little bit of an annoying process Also there seems to be an issue with the overall lighting where it doesn't go all the way down during the previews and even when the movie starts sometimes you have to go tell someone to turn the lights off

BRING YOUR OWN FOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!…read more DO NOT BUY ANY CONCESSIONS!!!! A bottle soda and SMALL bag of candy is $17! And the prices are not set and will change depending if they think you're rich. I was going to buy a bottle soda and a bag of penut m&ms and was horrified when it was rung up as $16 then put the soda back and they said the candy alone will be $7, put the candy back, the movie was long so I decided to buy the $7 candy, new person at the register and he tells me the candy is $8.75 plus tax when he saw my ring and then was rude to me when I asked why the price is now $8.75 and not $7. Go to the dollar tree beforehand and sneak it in, do not give them money and reward their price goauging.

This theater is my favorite theater and #1 go-to in the Bay Area! You can't find many theaters…read morelike The Chabot Theater anymore, and I'll tell you why! The Chabot Theater has been around for 75 years. With only 1 movie screen, it has been visited by long-time residents and newcomers who share a passion for film and reasonable pricing. They may not have reserved seating or the best state of the art surround sound systems, but that's what makes it unique and what a 1990-2000s movie theater used to be like. Also, they feature local commercials, bands/music, and upcoming events before the movie starts, which is great to see the support for the community! One of the best things about this theater is that you can purchase tickets for 1/2 the price every Tuesday! As of August 2025, 1/2 priced tickets will be $6/each (Regular: $12), which is a steal these days and especially when you can watch some of the biggest blockbuster films! Keep in mind, if you are a child or senior, regular pricing is $10 (still a bargain!), but Tuesday pricing will remain $6/each. You can purchase both tickets and concessions together in the lobby, which makes the process simple and smooth. Parking is relatively easy - no dedicated parking lot, just the street so adhere to the posted signage. Most street parking is 2 hour limit, but if you're okay taking a short walk, find some side or cross streets to extend the limit especially if you're catching a film that's longer than 2 hours. If you're looking for a place to host an event, watch party, or birthday, they do that here (pricing on website). If you're looking for something fun to do during the week nights, they host trivia nights (free for everyone), family movie nights (tickets required), and karaoke nights (free for everyone) too! This theater is truly a gem, one that I hope remains a staple within the CV community, providing a safe and enjoyable place for everyone.

My hometown theater! I love going to catch a movie at the…read morechabot! It feels like home! Once you walk in you're greeted by the concession stand and where you buy your ticket. There is always someone who is nice and happy you're there working and it makes you really feel like you're back to where you grew up. I always buy food/drink to help support. The ticket prices are the cheapest around (especially on half off tuesdays) and they even give free popcorn after the last showing lets out if they have any left! The seats in the lower half are probably the original seats (which makes it more nostalgic for me) and probably aren't the most comfortable but the upper half has been renovated with tables and chairs so if you want to eat actual food you can do so comfortably! They also host an array of events so there is always something going on!
