Story

One screen. Operated by Landmark since 1978. Home of the Twin Cities Exclusive, the Uptown Theatre is located in the heart of the Uptown District. Featuring the finest in independent film and foreign language cinema, programming is usually limited to one or two week runs, at which point films will typically move down the street to the luxurious Lagoon Cinema.

The Uptown Theatre was originally built in the 1930s after a fire destroyed its multi-purpose predecessor, the Lagoon Theatre. The Uptown still sports a 50-foot tower, originally placed to mark the Uptown area. The tower used to have a revolving beacon which, when lighted, one could see from miles around. The Uptown Theatre is still the only remaining area movie theatre with true balcony seating.

The parking lot behind the Lagoon Cinema is open again. There are also pay lots behind the Uptown Theatre and behind Calhoun Square. Metered street parking is available on nearby neighborhood streets and unmetered street parking is available out beyond the metered streets.

This is a classic old school theater. Lots of unique cult films and independent movies here. They do the Rocky Horror justice here. Some of the best movies I've ever seen were in this theater. Concessions are good, fair priced, and unique. My only critique is I wish they'd not take the construction era of the theater so literally and change the gaudy paint colors to some that people would want to be around.

Even if you purchase reserved seats in advance, allow time for parking, waiting in line for popcorn, and waiting in another line upstairs for a cocktail. It's worth the wait since this theater has the best new indie and art films. Bring your drink into the theater and enjoy the spacious leg room and good sound.

The uptown theater is an absolute Uptown Minneapolis gem! They frequently show Indies, older movies that are classics, or movies that have a cult following like The Rocky Horror Picture Show! The theater is an architectural gem with balcony seating and a full bar on the second level. THE BAR: The bar will only let you buy one drink at a time if you are solo. If you are buying a drink for your date they have to be present with you at the bar. They will however let you buy a bottle of wine...... which counts as one drink. Silly, I know. My husband and I shared a double because he was sitting in the theater while I went out to get us drinks. Without this policy we would have both had double wines! This is of course right before the person behind me ordered a bottle which is how I learned of the loop hole of how to order more than one drink. Order a bottle!

A beautiful, historic theatre. The VIP seating is on the balcony, which is awesome. They even put real butter on the popcorn. The other food isn't bad either. Definitely check out their midnight showings as well. Lots of fun classics. I especially love the Hayao Miyazaki films.

A very old school vibe and a lovely setup. It's extremely spacious and has plenty of options for the concession.
