Great, fun environment, great staff. One staff helpfully said for us to get our seats first so we'd…read morebe sitting together before one of us goes back for snacks.

The Rose Theatre is one of the jewels of Port Townsend. I've never seen a theater like it before…read more Delicious fresh popped popcorn (without the rancid oil smell), REAL butter, numerous toppings to flavor your popcorn, savory and sweet, from cinnamon/sugar to nutritional yeast. YUM! And the prices are reasonable. No gouging here. The concessions are friendly and homey. You can get a cup of ice and they don't charge you for the cup! The usual candy selection, plus some exotic candies and sometimes even baked goodies. The entire lobby walls are covered in vintage movie posters. Ticket prices are ridiculously low! Most movies are only $12 for adults. If you're a member (membership begins at $100/year,) you can get $2 off the ticket price, plus earn points for other freebies and discounts. The whole theater is styled like the vintage theaters from the golden age of cinema. Velvet seats. Even hand-printed chalkboard marquees over the theater entrances. Old fashioned settees in the room off the lobby, and a vintage box office window. One of the theaters features hand-painted murals on the walls. One has been totally redecorated with sofa seating and little tea tables. Personal touch: Most movies begin with a personal description of the film to be shown, narrated by one of the theater's friendly staff. They might also include trivia or other items of interest about the director or the making of the film. There are no annoying commercials. Just a slideshow while you're waiting, of advertisements from local businesses. Then just a few previews and your movie starts. The sound quality is great and the theaters are small, so you always get a good seat. The theater is owned and run by local Port Townsend residents, who are often there, and will always try to make time for a question or a chat or even just a quick hello between rushing off to check the projector or close the heavy red velvet drapes before the film starts or fill a bag of popcorn. They run a selection of the latest box office hits, classic films, and even ballets and operas. This is especially special since we are so far away from being able to visit such amazing venues as the Met in person. If you're ever in Port Townsend, you MUST make time for a movie visit at the Rose. Going to the Rose Theatre is more than going to the movies, it's a total immersive experience! http://rosetheatre.com One comment about other Yelp reviews: There are new owners who have done a lot to improve the movie-goer experience over the past couple of years. Please ignore negative reviews from a few years ago. Some are petty and others just don't apply anymore. Thanks.

Not long ago, an editor asked me why I hadn't been contributing to his 'zine…read more "Because I have been in a place beyond cellphones, beyond Facebook, Twitter, Yelp'n Patch," I replied. "But I'll be back soon, and spin those words onto your website, I promise." So, in 2011, where could such a place be? Inside a movie theater, of course. And yep, I've been immersed in one of the most spectacular of all pursuits...the Port Townsend FIlm Festival. Three to four movies a day. A few chats with filmmakers, financiers, actors. And...I was one of the moderate festival goers. This festival is the Whole Enchilada, the Big Kahuna, the... Nevermind... here is a taste of the program, and you can see for yourself. Imagine. Three spectacular days. Great weather. Free outdoor theater on a big screen set up in the middle of Taylor Street. (The audience sits on bales of hay, of course. ) Spectacular views of the waterfront, free films at two other venues. (The Peter Simpson Free Cinema and the Pope Marine Theatre.) Not to mention Buck Henry, the 80 year old Hollywood filmwriter movie actor and comic. (The Graduate, Catch-22, Heaven Can Wait) A selection of films: "Koran By Heart" " Patriot Guard RIders" "Seeds of Change" "A Perfect Soldier" www.ptfilmfest.com I could continue...but do yourself a favor. Check out the website. And join me next year in Port Townsend for the thirteenth annual event. They don't call it "Dream City" for nothing... This is one downhome, easy-going, cheap, lively, uncrowded way to spend a summer's day. Or evening. DId I mention cheap???

If you're looking for a place to watch movies while you sit in your car (with the radio on to the…read moremovie station) or in the back of your car (with the hood open), then this is the place for you! With high theatre prices, seeing more than one movie for less money is a gift. Especially where you can freely take whatever snacks you want (even if it's a whole meal that you somehow got there). And if you forgot your snacks/drinks, no worries because there is a shop where you can get food. There's also an arcade, so if you need something to do while you wait for the movie to start (other than reading a book or scrolling through social media), that's something.

Be sure to order the fries; they are fantastic! The prices are unbelievable and accommodating for everyone. I do recommend being mindful of the time you arrive holidays, a certain movie premieres creates high volume of visitors. Also bring blankets, chairs, cushions, tents, and whatever else makes you as comfortable as possible to enjoy the movie outside the temperature drops but the movie is much more enjoyable bundled up together outside under the clear sky and stars. This was the perfect way to introduce the theater experience to children who's ages are 5, 3, & 1 as they had the opportunity to play at the arcade, ride go karts, and play in the open field area not being restricted to a theater room. On our way home my husband and I planned our next visit; I highly recommend adding Blue Fox Drive-In Theater to your things to do!
