Bow Tie Bellevue Cinema 4

Classic movie theater with huge, comfy chairs. Great, friendly service & clean surroundings. The temperature is steady & there’s a lot of fun dinner & snack places nearby. I’ve been coming here for 50 years!!!

Hubby & I came here last night to watch Concussion. The snacks were pricey and the nachos were terrible! Seriously, if management is reading this, please order Tostitos or any other brand besides the rock hard chips that you currently sell. It was also a bummer not being able to order an icee due to the machines not being in service. The only positive is the leather seats are nice, patrons are respectable and quiet and the movie theater is pretty clean.

For a quick show while you’re in town for dinner, or a random movie here and there, it’s fine. However, I can NOT believe that they charge as much as a real theater with more and better amenities. The place is kind of a mess, it’s a poor setup, the seats are VERY uncomfortable and two of the rooms are completely useless. The concessions are way overpriced, as well. Do yourself a favor and call ahead. If the movie is in theater 3 or 4, skip it all together. There was a huge stage in front of the screen making it feel more like you were watching a movie at home on a big TV. Not worth it at all. Will be heading to the main theaters for the bigger movies from now on. This place needs a major overhaul.

Hugely disappointing experience. Just as costly as most theaters however there are little to no amenities. Theater had a foul odor. Staff was rude, sluggish and unkind. Do not intend on frequenting this facility. Candy was stale and popcorn was buttered already.

I was glad that I was able to buy the tickets online before the movie. Too bad they put the machines to print them in a spot where I still had to get past others waiting on line. The seats are comfortable-​ish upstairs in theater 3 but whoever designed the seating and screen layout needs to find new work. With all the other options for movie going in the area this is my second to last choice, the Clairidge being last.

This theater has extremely comfortable seats and the workers are extremely accommodating. The popcorn is perfectly golden and always hot and fresh. This is my favorite theater to go to as it’s small and very well kept.

Pretty good when the movies are happening, but besides that, this theatre isn’t my favorite. It is always very sloppy when I go, and when I went to go see a movie recently, the beginning had no sound, and EXTREMELY loud blares of static/​feedback would come on and make everyone’s ears bleed. We also noticed that in another theater, showing Jurassic World, the air conditioner was busted. Therefore the workers left the door wide open, leaving distracting and possibly scary roars, screams, and plot twists throughout the ENTIRE THEATER. Not the best performance… is this a reoccurring problem? I don’t know, but if it happens again, and am most likely going to switch theaters.

Bow Tie Bellevue is definitely bookmarked as one of my go-​to theaters. The seats are large with high backs and upholstered with leather. The facilities are always clean, including the bathrooms and theater floors. For the most part, the traffic is minimal, not unless its Montclair Film Festival week. The prices are your average unfortunately. I have been to small sized theaters such as Bow Tie Bellevue and their prices are more often than not slightly cheaper than your local AMC theater. Bellevue stays true to the average.

Great movie theater and different atmosphere than the big chain theaters. Even though it’s a old theater it’s a great place to go if you want something different. Also after the movie you can walk around the shops in the area

My favorite theater around. Nice, big leather seats. Never smells bad. It’s looks old on the outside but the screens are big and it doesn’t seem old at all inside.

I’ve seen only one film here (so far) and it was with my nephew to watch Dawn of the Planet of the Apes. What appealed most to me was the old time small feel.
I really lost my interest in theaters like AMC. Too overcrowded.
Like most small theaters, this did not have stadium seating but it was quite relaxing and very dark. I get a thrill sitting in a movie theater where it is pitch black! Kudos!
Personally, I believe surround sound is very important when it comes to action-​thriller movies and even though the theater did not promote to deliver us «superior-​sophisticated surround sound», I thought it was authentic enough.
Before walking in, I noticed shops in the area so I abruptly I bought goodies including coffee and brought into the theater. The friendly staff didn’t question it or disapproved it. That was swell!
Though it is an old structure building, unappealing to most people, I found nothing wrong except limited amount of rooms. Service was at par, location is convenient, existing cleanliness but importantly it was quiet and organized. Keep it up!
I have faith this will be my only favorite spot to watch a movie. Until next time!

This theater looks old, and it is. However it shows lots of kid friendly and modern movies, as well as the occasional art house film. There can be something for everyone in the family. The concessions here are pricy, the tickets are reasonable and there are senior discounts, and matinée prices on occasion.
Parking is in the lot across the street and you need to feed the meters.
