    Wonderful theater, classics, cult favorites, and first runs. Great deal to get the five pack of tickets. And they have the best theater candy from when you were a kid and before "the man" started outlawing Hot Tamales.

    It'd been way too long since I'd seen a movie at The Vogue Theatre. (And because of COVID, it'd been a long time since I'd seen *any movie in a theater). So it was perfect that The Vogue, a single screen theater that in its form is nearly extinct, was screening one of the newest, buzziest films, Tár, that's predicted to dominate The Oscars. Such a bargain for a matinee plus fresh popcorn, comfortable seating, super clean space, nice. If you have a choice for a venue, come here.

    Was so happy to see one of my favorite SF movies playing here!

    There are no words to describe my love and loyalty to this beautiful San Francisco gem. Born and mostly raised here in SF, I appreciate the history and importance of places like this. Places that have been part of our community for generations. I come here once or twice a month, grab a popcorn, and enjoy movies that I almost never got to see on the big screen, it's such a treat! On the anniversary of Prince's death, they showed Purple Rain and I LOVED that! The service is always friendly, you can easily buy your tickets online or in person, they have a small but appropriate selection of snacks and drinks, and the theater itself is always clean and maintained. Their movie selections are so random, you can always find something you'll enjoy! Obviously, not a vast selection of movie times but perfect for a small theater like this, so if you walk by, you can always check what they have going on like a month out. LOVE YOU VOGUE!!

    The Vogue is one of the three local independent theaters operated by Cinema SF, along with the Balboa and 4 Star. I love going to the a Balboa and wanted to check out the Vogue as well. I watched Amelie with a friend on a weekday evening. I didn't buy tickets before, but luckily it wasn't too crowded and I was able to get a ticket there for $15. I also got their popcorn which is always delicious. There is only one theater in the building, and it has pretty nice seating. The only annoying part was that the seats aren't on much of an incline, so the person's head in front of me was blocking my view of the subtitles the whole time. Other than that, I had a great time and especially love the dramatic lighting in front of the theater!

    Rogues At The Vogue - One Night Only. If you missed it you missed the party of the year. Well, maybe not the party of the year - but since it was my party, I'd like to think it was. With the closing of the Bridge Theater, the Vogue Theatre (not "theater") has become our new favorite single screen in SF. So much so that when we wanted to put on a party incorporating music and movies, the Vogue was the only choice for us. They were so helpful in helping us set up and work out the details - even letting me come in to test my DCP files on their digital camera setup. And when I had problems with that, their suggestions are what got things over the hump to completion. I'm a big fan of single screen neighborhood theaters. We are still upset that the Bridge Theater has closed. We have found a new home at the Vogue. In addition to the first run movies that they show, the Vogue also hosts several movie festivals and special events throughout the year. Our favorite is the Mostly British Film Festival. Another aspect of the single screen theaters is that many of them can support other activities. The State in Modesto and the Arena Theater in Point Arena are good examples of movie theaters getting a new life as a mixed mode venue. They support both movies and concerts as well as other events. So part of the reasoning for our special event was to show people in the area that the Vogue can be used for this. With over 100 people in attendance (including a few Yelpers) and several more persons walking in off the street, I think we did just that. The Vogue is run by the San Francisco Neighborhood Theater Foundation and the do a very fine job. The SFNTF also manages the Balboa and holds Movies in the Park throughout SF during the summer months. They have a good projection system including Digital Projector with surround sound. A prior reviewer said they don;t have this and I can say with certainty that they do since I created a DCP movie with Dolby 5.1 sound and it took advantage of all the channels. Another big plus is that the popcorn is always fresh and lightly salted (some places are way too salty). There are a few negatives about the Vogue which I must point out. The movie sightlines are not the greatest - the floor is not as sloped as it should be (like stadium seating) so when it is crowded you may have to see around someones head. Also, the food choices are limited (no hotdogs, etc here). But I like that since I always see food wrappers and such at other theaters and have on occasion stepped in a pool of ketchup because someone dropped a packet from their hotdog. In summary, The Vogue Theatre is a gem in the neighborhood that needs to be preserved and frequented. And now that I have an annual pass, I may see you there.

It is definitely unique so you gotta check out this theatre specifically. It stands out from the others, even the other Alamos. This is a must on your bucket list for cinephiles. Once you walk in through the large front doors, you'll see for yourself how gorgeous the interior is. It feels so grand from the moment you're there. Surrounding the walls, is a bunch of Bruce Lee posters covered all around. He's clearly a classic and from the city! There is a bunch of merch, and selection of films to go through. There are ones from each country and it's hilarious that Michelle Yeoh has her own collection. The theatre itself feels special as you're surrounded by the intricate, artisan architecture. It's not just your typical big screen. And luckily, the chairs are comfy so you're settled in for the screening. For some showings, they have special previews, Q&As, photo pop ups, and sometimes even simple mementos to take back with you. So get your camera ready! Alamo Drafthouse also serves food! Depending on the film, there could be a special menu. They previously would someone directly come to you when you order, but switched to mobile. It could be distracting so now just download the app for quick service and they will bring it straight to you. If yall decide to order the classic popcorn, the bowl is huge so probably share it with your friends. Can't wait til next time!

They have $1 movies everyday if you are looking to go in a budget The 5 stars is mainly because the managers have a 5-star attitude when it comes to customer service. They have helped me out every time instead of brushing me off. In the beginning, I kept forgetting to scan my rewards membership as the concession workers don't ask for it. They were able to retoractively add my points or apply my rewards when I remember right after the transaction finished. It's much better than Cinemark when one forgets. Another thing is when one of the managers saw me looking at movie merch, they took the initiative to ask what I was looking for and bring out stock from the back to sell to me. For clarification, I had called in earlier in the week and the concession workers told me there were no more. I still came by to look and was pleasantly surprised they had merch in the back. I appreciated that very much, plus the theater got to sell a good portion of their stock that day. Win-win. Would recommend this theater to others.

I spoke to someone at the counter, and she gave me the emails for David (the general manager) and the theater so I could inquire about their birthday packages, pricing, and other details. I emailed both gm1464@regalcinemas.com and theatre1464@regalcinemas.com twice, but I never received any response. Because of that, I ended up just buying all the tickets myself and bringing in food for the party, which was very inconvenient and stressful. The only reason I'm giving 1 star instead of less is because of one employee named Skipper. He truly went the extra mile to help us with the seating arrangements and even helped me bring the food inside. He was very kind, helpful, and professional. If it weren't for him, my son's birthday could have been a disaster. Thank you, Skipper, for saving the day!

Orange cushy stadium seats that provide extremely minimal head-blockage Best part about this cinema has got to be their restrooms - no lie! Never in my life did I think I'd be all goo-goo-eyed over a bathroom but this 1 is the bees knees! They have the most luxurious toilet seats - they're *heated* ( ! ) and offer bidet functions for those who prefer that kind of action....there were so many buttons on this thing that I was scared to push anything for fear of setting off the disco lights.....and coming in from a frigid cold, blustry evening, I didn't want to leave that heated seat! :-) I'd totally come back here to see fantastic indie picks & can't wait to see what's playing next!

    How can I be the first one to review this fabulous place? SF Film society holds their shows here…read more They're obviously people of taste, because they invited me to come show my cartoon about filthy disgusting pirates. I found the facilities to be quite inviting. It's basement level and feels sequestered from the outside world (as it should), like a hi-tech vault to showcase and preserve humanity's best culture for the post-apocalypse future. I mean, it looks like a spaceship inside. It's swank and modern. It's comfortable and well-equipped. I did hear a few complaints about the seats being too lean-y and lacking arm rests, but I found them soft and well-spaced, and the sound and projection were great. My stuff looked great on screen. It was the perfect size for a post-show Q&A- 143 seats holds a crowd but not an impersonal one. The hosts were incredibly gracious and caring about the show they were putting on. This place doesn't organize shows like amateurs (trust me, I've done those.) If you're thinking of seeing a show here, it's probably something you wouldn't see anywhere else, so you might not know how to judge it. Consider yourself in good hands. It will be curated with taste. There's tons of great options for eating and shmoozing afterward right across the street, in Japantown's mall full of sushi places. One of my co-attendees is well versed in quality sushi, and called the place we went to one of the best she had found in the city. Pick this theater and neighborhood for a great night out.
