Arlington Cinema and Drafthouse

I had such a good time tonight at the Arlington Cinema. Please don’t believe these bad comments because they are untrue.

The place is clean, seats are comfortable, staff is friendly, food and drinks are good, and the vibe is cool and chill. With all that’s going on in DC, it’s nice to get out at a local spot not far from your home. Tone Bell and Rogo did an excellent job. I will be back to support this establishment.

The intimate setting of this places created a cozy atmosphere that made our entire experience incredibly comfortable.
We were able to sit at the bar top in the middle and it was honestly one of the best places to be, the chairs were comfortable and the servers very attentive.

Love the place. Great food, amazing atmosphere, what else do you need? I always recommend this place to people looking for something fun to do in Arlington. Also, Erin the manager is great! She was so nice and always looked after all of our needs.

Best Movie Theater I have ever been to. Me & My Wife celebrating Our 6yr Wedding Anniversary. The Drinks & Food was Amazing. They bring the food to your seats. I will never go to another Movie Theater again

I recently came to this cinema for a show, and it was great! Being from the NOVA area, I run by this theater a lot and it only worn down from the outside, while the inside still maintains its structure.

It’s an old-school entrance, and the theater area was pretty big. The show we went to had a lot of people, and the cinema accommodated extra rows of seats between the desks.

The wait staff was friendly and attentive. The big parking log in the back accommodates guests coming here, so bringing a car is possible (although you should come early!).

Absolute gem of a facility. One of my favourite go-to's for when I want to go out but not DC or clubbing or anything crazy. They get amasing comedians to come here; I've now seen Bobby Lee, Stevo, David Koechner, Josh Blue, Paris Sashay to name a few of my favourites. But they also show films and host cool events like the fly fishing tour every year. You don't come here for the food, you come here for the comedy shows/films and stay for the drinks LOL.
It's open seating which I actually really like, and office chairs with tables/bar tops which just really has a unique atmosphere I've never had anywhere else. I've even talked to the manager about renting out the facility to host an event and he said yes ans that they rent out regularly! Super excited for that and thankful for this old cinema turned urban space ♡

This was my first comedy show. I got to see Schuler King truly funny, worth every penny.
The food was great, I can't wait for next time

I love this place and saw the lord of the rings trilogy here

I went with two of my sisters to a comedy show to see Erica Rhodes and we loved it! The staff were great!! We ran into a small hiccup with tickets but the whole staff was super helpful and accommodating. The manager Pete was very personable and flexible and helped us get everything taken care of. The whole experience was great, love the atmosphere and the people there! We will definitely go back. 10/10 would recommend for a great night out with friends!

Showed up last night for a show that was cancelled a while back (missed the email, whoops). GM Pete was so responsive and helpful - even though it was a third party vendor. I had my tickets refunded within a few hours. Drafthouse had great service and it’s a fun venue when I’ve attended other events there. Thanks Pete!

This show was my first visit to the DraftHouse. It’s a chill vibe!!!!! I look forward to going back!!!

An old favorite where you order drinks and food and you sit at tables lots of comedy shows, movies and special outdoor movie festivals.

Took my daughter to see Ava and crank that Frank. Purchase parents seats which were great they were comfy and in the back. My daughter really enjoyed herself

love this place. we go as much as we can for live comedy

It's a classic spot been going there for years. Nice comfortable vibe. You have a decent amount of space compared to other DC comedy spots. You definitely want to get there early if you have a show though.

This is my favorite comedy club in the DMV. They have a lot of great comedians. Tickets, drinks, and food are affordable. Seating is first come first serve, comfy, and not crowded.

Been going for over 12 years. My favorite movie spot and comedy spot rolled together. Food delivered straight to the table. Every staff member is friendly and helpful.

The Arlington is. Very nice and comfy theater. Feels very intimate and modern at the same time. The prices are reasonable and the comedians were funny. Definitely plan to visit this theater again in the future. I tried the nachos they were good nothing over the top.

I really like this place. A movie theater with above average food and no kids!!!! I seen a few movies here and I had a great time. The fried mac cheeses is out of a box, but the wing are great!!! The servers are nice, but fyi the kitchen closes at 1030. So if u want food for the 950 showing order quick. Sever most likely will not tell u that and u be stuck with no food for the last hour and a half. It happened to me when I saw transformer. She was very nice and gave me great service over all just forgot to tell me when the kitchen closing up, but I'm a slow eater so I think she thought I was full.

Entertainment paired with good food and delicious beer. Great for a Friday or Saturday night out of the house
