Great theater and selection of food and beverages. Only downside is that tickets bought online can't be refunded, you can only get credits Love their seats, pretty spacious, recline AND heated! Bar has great variety of drinks. Lots of standard drinks at the bar, and then specials for current movies

I love warehouse! The food is affordable, the seats recline and have warmers. All staff was very attentive! Manny, the bartender was great and I definitely enjoyed my drink with my movie. Emily, at the concession stand catered to all my questions. The young lady making food was very sweet as well.

Saw the 530 showing of Sinners on April 24th. Ended up missing the first 15 minutes of the movie because there was no bartender on duty and had to wait for one, and the bartender who came didn't know how to make certain drinks. Family bathroom was dirty. Nobody checked for tickets when we entered. Theatre has nice sound system and seats were comfortable.

My first time going to this cinema and now it’s one of my best places to go for a nice movie date spot. The atmosphere was very calm and the workers were very welcoming. I also liked how they had a police officer in the building.
