Arlington Cinema and Drafthouse

This place is amazing and the staff is on point.

Overall the venue is disappointing. The furniture, chairs and bathrooms are all very old and run down. The food is average at best (although the pretzels are great) and the service is spotty. Our waitress was very disorganized, seemed confused and struggled to input basic orders into her tablet. There is also a lack of a security presence to keep patrons and talent safe. Ownership really needs to put some money into a large scale renovation if they plan to attract good clients.

Worn but effective cabaret style set up, good to see classic theater put to goid use. Understand it's a tough venue for stage performances, as, as an old movie theater, it wasn't constructed with a backstage area.

Rachel Feinstein show was great! Reasonably priced tickets and I appreciated being able to move tickets to another night when a scheduling conflict arose. All staff were very friendly and attentive. Older venue but chairs were comfortable and view of stage was good. Food was fine. Nice experience. Thank you!

Friendly, low key, fun venue

Love the cinema and draft. Seen some really funny comics on the cheap. It's also next door to two good resteraunts. A Thai place and a great 24 hour taco joint.

The staff at this venue was untrained on to how to deal with drunk and disruptive audience members. I went there for a comedy show on 7/26 and just my luck, I was seated right in front of a group of drunk loudmouths who cared more about the conversation between their group, than listening to the comedian. We asked a staff member to get them to quiet down and she looked like a deer in the headlights...frozen with no clue on what to do. Needless to say, nothing was done by the staff, and the drunkards remained loud for most of the show until I finally had to get loud with them. I shouldn't have had to do that.

My wife and I came here to see Tony Baker. Definitely an older building in need of repair but the chairs were very comfortable and the set up and layout of the theater provided lots of space and leg room. Food and drinks were very good and the comedy show was hilarious. Tony Baker is a top tier comedian and his host and the other comedians in his line up were great.

This comedy club is quaint. The food is ok. The computer chair VIP seating is hilarious. The only drawback is that, at the end of the show, another waiter came back with another printed receipt, which we had already paid in full; so, please make sure y'all don't get charged twice.

Thank you Pete, Ashanti and Brea for making our whole night at the Tony Baker Show possible. The staff was professional and kind and ready to serve. Thank you for your kindness and professionalism. We will be back for another great evening at Arlington Draft House. 10 out of 10 drinks ,admission prices and customer service. Wow!

I saw Tony baker last night, July 11th. At the arlington cinema drafthouse. When you get to the draft house, you have to understand that you're going to what looks like a abandoned crack house. But yeah, i'm sure the construction will eventually be completed. The uh performance had four comedians. The first comedian was absolutely horrible and giggled at his nonsensical mumblings, for fifteen minutes. The second comedian was a woman who was, it's probably worse. At no point, did she? Say something I found interesting or funny. The third comedian was a guy who was cheerful and had some positive words about mental health. In his 15 minutes stint, he said possibly 2 things that were worthy of a chuckle. Tony baker then came out for 45 minutes. And if you're wondering if Tony is as funny in person as he is on TikTok, the answer is a resounding, no. He did make pretty much everybody laugh four twenty minutes out of his forty-five. With the performance being inside of what looks like a crack house, and each of them spent time talking about that. It had me wondering. Without this drafthouse, they must have spent about five minutes each preparing for this show.

Service was great!

I visited the Arlington Cinema and Draft house for the first time to see the comedian D’Lai. He was an awesome headliner and we had a great evening on laughter. Great venue in the heart of downtown Arlington. Check it out!

Its a nice spot but needs some upgrading.

I always enjoy coming here to enjoy a show by Paris Sashay while sipping from a bottle of Prosecco and munching on the BEST popcorn as a snack!
