Scotiabank Theatre Toronto

Do pop in to see the Star Trek ships hanging from the rafters on the ground floor, including a green Klingon ship (pictured). The seats are comfortable and recline. Sight lines were good even when on the far left side of the theatre. The screens were clean and the movie was projected well with no flickers or bits of dust apparent. Be prepared for quite a hike up the stairs. I’ve been here a few times and have not experienced a working escalator. There is one elevator. The regular snack counters in my last visit were unimpressive in offerings and quality of service. The pop freestyle machines are a nice touch. The popcorn is served dry and there are self-service ‘popcorn topping’ stations. I did see others in the theatre with interesting food but I didn’t find it.

I love this theater. First they have alcohol, you can never go wrong with that. Second it's a whole experience. Once you get there you have the huge looming staircase and huge elevators. I've been there 2 times for events a couple of classes and obviously the movies and I've been going there for years. They make changes frequently but they're always getting better.

I did not explore the entire building, but I went to see a movie here. They have many options for snacks and other items. More than one place to get such things in this cinema. The decor of the building looks a little old to be honest. The staff are useful when you approach them. Also, a lot of things are "do it yourself". I have seen staff handing out 3d glasses at other cinemas, but this one, they put the 3d glasses in front of the door, you pick it up on your way in. There are also self-serving popcorn toppings.

A theater is a theater, for the most part, but extra points for good location, an IMAX screen, clean washrooms, and mostly comfortable seating. No VIP, which might have been nice, but you can actually buy and drink beer in the regular theaters. Food is just okay. Stairs are good exercise.

Excellent place to watch a film with a friend or take a date. Host theatre for TIFF and great location downtown with lots of great resturants, bars and clubs just down the street. Can take alcohol right to your seat in any theatre room! Food is great, totally worth the cost, but hey you're treating yourself so why not spend a little extra... You deserve it!
