The Screening Room Cinema & Arts Cafe

Cool venue to watch all kinds of movies. Some are themed and some have special guests to answer questions about the movies. Viewing room has a basement rec room feel and can fit 50 persons. Snacks, beer & wine are available for purchase. Get there early for a good seat.

We hosted a Buffalo Bills watch party and diaper party at The Screening Room, and it was a great experience! The owner, Bob, was incredibly helpful, kind, and accommodating - so easy to work with. The space was perfect for our group, with plenty of seating and a relaxed, fun atmosphere.

It’s great that they have a bar on-site, and you can also bring your own food and non-alcoholic drinks, which made it super convenient. The rental price was very reasonable for what you get.

A few of the seats are showing some wear and could use a little refreshing, but overall, it didn’t take away from how much everyone enjoyed themselves. We’d definitely host another event here!

Nice place. Hope they play barbed wire again. Missed it last time.

Really cool place to hang out!

This place is a Buffalo icon. I've been going there for quite some time on and off but recently fell in love again during the JCS showing. Bob, the owner has been doing this for 32 years. He's a great guy and even fixed my buying tickets for the wrong date. They have a great selection of food, adult beverages and regular beverages and some kick-ass popcorn. If you read this review please don't tell anyone about this place, let's keep it under our hats just for us. 😘

$5 cover buys a fun Wednesday night in Amherst with live music, open mic and a bar. Rock, blues and jazz resounded in the comfy space from various bands. Very welcoming - I went solo and made new friends. Will return and would recommend.

My first time and we're here for Improv Revolution. What a great show! These two are great talents. It would fun to watch a show or movie here.

Love it here

Nice venue for off the cuff viewings

Had a private screening for a short film with hip-hop/ rap music by Buffalo, NY artist 2Lit Litfast and we Had an amazing time! The staff was extremely helpful and accommodating! The venue was perfect ?? I would highly recommend.

I booked a private screening for my friend's bachelor party this past weekend and we had a great experience. Bob is very responsive and accommodating, and made the whole thing very easy. The theater itself is comfortable with great A/V quality.

Highly recommend!

Intimate setting to see fun movies

I've been a patron of the Screening Room for the better part of 15 years. I've been both a spectator and host of events there. Great setting. Something for everybody every month.

Love coming here! Great prices and love the variety of movies they play! Even special events like sing alongs, trivia and marathons!

Very friendly and different. I will return.
