This review is for VIP cinemas alone. We were invited by Scene for a special preview for the VIP cinemas at this location. The event was a big success at least in terms of winning me over as a customer who would love to visit the VIP theaters in other locations as well.
What's so awesome about this theater you ask? It's the "VIP experience".
First off, you get reserved seating. The seats are designed for couples. They are reclining which makes then wayyy more comfy than the usual seats!!
Next, while you are seated you get to order from a special menu before the show starts and the food gets delivered to your seat!! We had some fantastic crunchy, fried dill pickles. They were well-dressed and came with a ranch dipping sauce. The quantity was generous and I couldn't stop eating them for the rest of the show!! We also got the Cheddar cheese sticks but they were very heavy and not too flavourful. I wasn't too impressed with them. The food however was good for the price. They definitely have more variety than the usual menu of nachos and popcorn. They also have a complete main course and desserts!! Oh, and the theatre is licensed so you can also order alcoholic beverages! What more can you ask for?
The service was excellent...I guess that's why they call it VIP service.
Even the washrooms lived up to the whole experience. They have individual washrooms with a sink in each room...so you don't have to wait until other people are done washing their hands.
I love the whole concept. The theatre is only 18+ in Ontario. I got free tickets and food at the event but I wouldn't hesitate in spending from my own pocket the next time I have to see a movie here. It's totally worth it!!
