When you first go in the front desk and the dining is fine I love the service then we get in to the movie theater part it has a really old classic feeling and I like it I will become back here more often 🙂
Large theaters, staff is nice. Bathroom not kept up but acceptable.
Great place to catch a movie, always clean and friendly staff.
Went here to see Spider-Man awhile ago and staff were disrespectful. Came again to the new scream and same experience. 👎 would rather pirate movies.
Love being able to walk to the movies . Seats need a vacuum cleaning.
My family love to watch movies here. It is small but it is cheap, very clean and not crowded. You can find plenty of parking and bars and restaurants are just around the street.
Great theatre with a good drink selection
Theyre showing at 10:00 p.m. when a lot of other places arent so that earns some points in my book. Parking is not as convenient as Rotterdam. You can use the nearby parking garage without paying, however, after 6:00 p.m. you dont need to validate you can just leave the ticket in the car and go catch the movie.
First time going here it was pretty decent besides the seat being little dirty.
Not a bad place. Visited on a Tuesday. Prices a little cheaper. If I had something to say negative was there seemed to be an odor in theater 3. Seemed like the carpet needed some refreshing or the seats. Maybe a person with bad BO just left. It wasnt unbearable. On the beginning of needs attention. Staff was excellent and knew what they were doing.
Re-opening weekend Dec 19, 2020. Quiet. Clean. Very few people in theater. All safely distant. Monster Hunter was AWESOME! (Tip: stay for after credit scene). So good to have date-nite again to keep marriage healthy. Go support the local theater.
They went above and beyond when I screwed up my tickets the place clean safe and awesome customer service thank you to the staff and management will be going back
Easy access from streetFriendly helpPop corn deliciousEnjoyed the movieHouse of GucciTheater was comfortableEverything was neat and clean
Brought my clients here a couple of times and its a pretty good theater. I had a bit of a hard time purchasing tickets because I need separate bills and receipts, so checkout took a bit long because the cashier wasnt seeming to understand. Soap dispensers were empty and the paper towel dispensers before and after the movie. Otherwise was clean and the theater itself was big and comfortable. Parking is hard to find.
It was a long wait to get tickets even though there were only 3 ppl in line ahead of us. The kiosk to purchase tickets without waiting in line wasnt working either and there was no one to ask for help since the only staff in sight was running the ticket booth and it took a long time as I said. Also, when buying popcorn 🍿 one had to go to one of 2 butter machines to put your own butter on it. Which in one way was good as we could control the amount of butter to put on our popcorn. However, there wasnt any hand sanitizer near the stations to use which would be key since everyone touches the same butter machine handle. This is not a good flaw to have at this time. But, the theater 🎥 was clean as was the bathroom, and the one staff we dealt with was pleasant, otherwise, my rating would have been worse!
The volume of the movie shown is so incredibly loud, it HURTS. This not only makes the movie very unpleasant to see, but will cause permanent damage to your hearing. Ive experienced this twice now within one month; first in mid December of 2019, next in early January 2020. The first time this happened it hurt so much I had to finally leave the movie halfway through in order to ask the staff to lower the volume and they did, adjusting it to a normal level. Of course Id missed a lot of the film. But I caught up on the plot and figured this had just been a one time mistake of the theaters.Yet when I went back a month later to see a different film I found it was to be played in the very same room at that theater. The ticket seller reassured me that theyd fixed the volume problem there. So, I went into that film room and immediately the volume of the commercials was blasting my eardrums out. I left and asked the next ticket seller to please adjust/lower the volume as I couldnt see a movie that really hurt my ears as I tried to watch it. A member of the management was standing right there and she said they would do so immediately. I went back into the film room and the volume was just as loud. Okay. So, I went back AGAIN to the ticket seller and asked for my money back because it hurt to see the movie so I wouldnt be able to see it. He wouldnt give my money back. He told me that management was currently fixing that problem and to go try the theater room again. AGAIN? I started to go back to the theater room again (having already lost my seat there twice now) and then realized this was too awful to have to deal with in the first place. So I returned to my place in line once more to get to the ticket seller again and request my money back a second time. The ticket seller told me that management would come down to return my money, and I needed to step to one side to wait for them. Step to one side? So that I could watch him sell more tickets to other victims (with little kids!) whod have their hearing permanently damaged just to see a film? I would not step to one side. So THEN management came down and returned my ticket price payment for a great movie I never got to see one second of because this theater was so terrible.
While it only has a few screens, the auditoriums are large and spacious, excellent seats and surround sound, and many options to choose from at the snack bar. Service might be a little snow early in the mornings, but not too bad...
This is an excellent theater to watch the latest movies at value prices. Their staff always provide excellent customer service with a smile. However, tons of children visit this theater throughout the day and the seats can be a bit messy at times.
Great pricing on tickets, good food selection and nice people, clean theatres and a nice sitting area. Their food prices are a pain for a college student, but thats how it goes- bathrooms are clean, and its in a convenient location. With friends or alone, Id recommend it.
Really good prices at this theater
The folks that work there are very nice. Ticket prices are affordable. Food is fairly good. Seats are reasonably comfy. If no street parking is available, bring your ticket from the lot around the corner and theyll validate it for ya. Also, Tuesdays are discounted.
Saw 1917 there, enjoyed the show but the seats need to be cleaned, always a funny odor in the theater. The whole place could use a good cleaning. Prefer Bowtie over Regal because you don’t have to select your seat.
The prices aren’t too crazy here is you go during the day! Parking is free at the parking ramp across the street so that was nice. Walking in, the theater was nice and clean. The people working at the concessions counter were nice and prompt. The food you can get there (besides the popcorn and candy) was pretty decent for a movie theater. We got the sliders to share since we were a little hungry and wanted something more filling than popcorn and they were okay.The sound was a little quiet during the movie but nothing that was detrimental to the experience. The seats were comfy as well. Not as nice as some newer places with recliners but then again you’re paying an arm and a leg to go to these places.At the end of the day it was a better than average experience and will probably be back when there is a movie we’d like to see.
Very clean. Always like seeing movies there.
I love this theatre! They have discount movie tickets every tuesday! And the concession staff members were so nice, me and my BF were there celebrating our 10 year anniversary & were the last ones out so they gave us a huge bag of popcorn for free!!! They definitely didnt have to do that, it was very nice of them. But even besides that I love this theatre because the fair prices
Me and my kids had the theater to ourselves.. They Loved it.
Clean and friendly staff. Family friendly. Great movie food selection.Pricing is amazing lower than amc.Cons. Too many young cooks. Occasionally your fries goons be burnt or under cooked.
Havent visited since they reopened but previously my family and i would go at least monthly, it was always well maintained, showed good movies had special price days and good popcorn.
Really frustrating experience at this movie theater this evening. Id been before and it was fine, nothing outstanding but a solid experience. This time was outstandingly bad. There was an issue with the projector I noticed as soon as previews started. The video was slightly out of focus. I checked with another group of moviegoers to make sure I hadnt suddenly developed vision problems. No problem, I went and told an employee who assured me hed let his manager know. 20 minutes later the movie starts. Still out of focus. So I go out again to the front and tell a different employee, who apologizes and assures me the manager is heading in to fix it soon. I tell her the movie is starting. She says she understands and apologizes again. Except, no one ever fixes the focus. It’s off the whole movie.I don’t know if they thought I was lying, or if no one ever cared to check, or they couldn’t fix it, but we all had to watch a blurry movie. I didn’t want to miss any more of the movie so I didn’t make a fuss for a third time, assuming that surely someone would get to it, but it didn’t happen. It’s great that this place has friendly employees, but I don’t go for a friendly chat, I go to see a movie, and this theater has demonstrated it can’t do that well. They have successfully gotten rid of me. Hopefully the headache I got from watching that movie will leave and never return too.
I travel a lot and sometimes forget the gems back home. Located conveniently in downtown schenectady the Bow Tie does a dignified job at being a theater a little closer to home. The staff is friendly, if a bit unprofessional (given their paychecks I cant really fault them) and they keep the place clean. The layout is nice and comfortable, even if it doesnt do quite enough business to justify some of its amenities which makes the whole thing feel a bit empty. The theater provides free parking at the complex across the street provides you validate at the ticket counter. Theres some deals with college ids and that sort or thing. It does a surprisingly good job keeping up with the latest releases. The real attraction is their Tuesday deal, where tickets are 7 dollars and all popcorn and drinks are 5 regardless of size. In a world where you can pay 15 bucks to see a movie thats probably lukewarm at best, and they gouge you at the concession stand this deal makes me feel much less financially guilty when I see the latest mindless summer blockbuster.
Great theater in that seats comfy, stadium arrangement gives great view, audio and video quality are good. Have to hold back one star because the prices at concession are insane. 4.50 for a bottle of water? Its less at Disney. But excellent movie viewing spot.
Very affordable tickets if you go during matinee, very clean and many food choices. Shows most major films and usually very very dead on weeknights so if you’d like to avoid the crowded madness at the mainstream regal locations this is a very good alternative. Well maintained overall and staff seems good. Parking garage is free if they validate your ticket and location puts you right in downtown if you’d like to have dinner or drinks as well.
My daughter and her classmates had a great time. Thank you for having the space to do her party. Thanks again!!!
Its not like Regal,you cant assign your seats while purchasing your tickets. But you can purchase tickets online ,via Atom. But the concessions offer a wider variety of food items. Pizza,nachos,the usual popcorn, hot dogs......but whiles most places offer water or soda,Bow Tie offers white and red wine...and beer!This location in Downtown Schenectady, is always clean but!!!! The theater/rooms....can have a strange smell,this need to be fixed ! But staff is always nice and friendly.
Absolutely LOVE going to this theater.It is never bombarded like the Regals in Colonie and Crossgates.The concession stand prices are very reasonable compared to Regal also. The screen brightness and sound quality is just fine!Floors seem cleaner than the Regals.I only have two recommendations for improvements:#1- Better seats with lift up arms and slight lean back/recline.#2- Bring back the marquees above the doors at each theater showing what is playing at that time. Its handy to see which theater you are going to if you happened to put your tickets away and there isnt a ticket taker at in the hall.
I LOVE this theater. Its home owned. Its clean. Its matene prices are unbelievably cheap at $7.50. a lot of Places dont even offer day pricing. The seats arent the most comfortable but I have faith they will change them eventually. They place all the best movies and get all the big blockbusters the same day. Short of the Scotia movie theater its the best around
Every time that we have been here, the staff has been wonderful and very helpful. This evening, the manager, Dakota, was really accommodating and helped us seamlessly switch our movie times when we realized the earlier showing would not work for us. Thank you, Dakota and the rest of the Bowtie Movieland 6 staff, for always ensuring a great experience. Your warm and welcoming nature is much appreciated!
Bowtie has always been a local favorite of mine. They have great deals on snacks and matinee tickets. This theater feels very premium and provides stadium seating and validates parking. It is a good place to go in the middle of the day if you want the theater to yourself. Popcorn is always good, hot and buttery.
Fast friendly service, and always clean. The theaters are great with a steep enough drop from row to row you are never looking at someones head instead of your movie. And the seats are soft and rock a little.
Well run very nice personal!##MARK J MASSARE##Ph.dEng.
Bow Tie has a friendly staff, good concessions and a very clean theater. Their sound system, though loud during the previews, was excellent. They have comfortable seats and free garage parking. A most excellent matinee.
This movie theater is a highly underrated experience in the Capital region. We are dominated by Regal Theaters around here, and they have a higher ticket price of over $10 compared to only $8 here. There is no assigned seating, which I expect Regal will use to further increase prices. The Bow Tie is clean, rarely packed, and a great deal. I understand its not as convenient as Crossgates or Colonie Center for some people but its definitely worth it. Oh, and they serve alcohol too. Best theater in the area.
Clean, comfortable, cozy movie theater!
Great sound system. Seats are a little small but its convenient for downtown Schenectady. Best for a matinee! Rarely crowded though so thats a plus :)
Went to see Black Panther with my adult son and his friend. The staff were very friendly, courteous and cheerful. All had smiles with ready conversations. An over all wonderful experience. It was clean and tidy too
RECURRING PROBLEM: Sound too loud, unsafe volume. This theater has a regular problem with the volume being turned up too loud. I attend loud, live music performances, and can appreciate thundering music. THE PROBLEM here is their volume is often turned up so loud that actors speaking at normal level are painfully loud, to the point of triggering a distortion effect in the ears of the audience. At least three times Ive been forced to tell the staff to turn the volume down; it is loud without benefit.
Ive been coming here for a few years and have always enjoyed myself here. Its a friendly environment and updated. Recently there was a sound issue and they relocated us to a different theatre and restarted the movie. At the end they gave each guest two free movie passes. Would recommend this theatre!
Nice and clean with comfortable seats. Tuesday prices are great, otherwise on part with other theaters it seems in terms of tickets and concessions. They serve a limited selection of alcohol also. Great addition to downtown!
Bow Ties cinema is a great movie theater. I have enjoyed several movies here. Another great thing they do are their Tuesday movie discounts. As well as Tuesday $5 popcorn runs. The staff always are pleasant and happy to help. During the summer hours another great service they do are free summer movies. Seats of course are first come first serve but they do have more then 1 theater showing the same film.
Real butter popcorn. Screens are a little smaller than some places, but the price is right and the overall experience is very nice. Parking in the garage is convenient and theres lots of places around to eat at if you want to make a day of it.
Patrons here can be very rude. Speaking on their phones and talking throughout the entire movie. I typically go on Tuesdays because the tickets are discounted. The only bad thing I can say about the theatre (that they have control of) is some of the rooms smell bad. They have just this dirty/funky smell. Like the upholstery on the chairs has absorbed a dirty clothes smell.
This is a great place to see a movie. All good seats, comfortable and free parking in parking garage across the street with validated parking ticket. The popcorn is the best and the movie tickets are among the lowest you can find. In addition, a movie is a matinee up until 6pm - much better than the Regal Cinemas 3pm.
Clean well-appointed and everything you could ask for. Concessions as you would expect for any major movie theater plus they also have hot food that you could turn into a serviceable meal. Additionally the ticket prices are cheaper than Regal and you dont have to worry about any of that assigned seating nonsense.
Quiet, small, clean and inexpensive.
Wow I mean wow went to see king Kong vs Godzilla was just amazing movie also cinema was so clean good people but their food is too expensive and it needs to improve and tastebetter, other than that good job.
This is a great theater to go to if you dont want to pay the exuberant prices at Crossgates Mall and Colonie Center. The staff are friendly and helpful. Free parking is available in the parking garage located across the street from it. They serve popcorn, soda, and candy..
Always happy when we go to bow tie! Its become a family tradition for us to go on Christmas, and the employees there are so kind and helpful. They even wished us a merry christmas as we left. No one looked miserable to be there, even though it was christmas.
This place is cheap, and great service. They offered refills and drinks & popcorn, and the large drink was only 5.50 at a movie theater! Tickets before noon were 7.50 10/10 would recommend to all my friends
Had a blast, expensive tickets and snacks....spent about $100 for 5 people 3adults 2 small kids..20 years ago..for 6 it was the same So Im PLEASED!!! will return!
Place is nice, and we enjoy going. However, they advertise/claim to offer draft beer, but they dont. A staff member told me it has been broken for awhile, and the company hasnt/wont fix it. If you arent going to have it anymore, stop claiming that you do.
Cashier made a mistake on ticket purchase. Then manager gave me a dated movie pass. My gift card isnt dated so why should my pass be dated. Again their error not mine. Wasnt happy and told them. Manager said thats all she could do. Should have been open ended!!!
First - let me say that the seating and screens are great. The theater is clean and most of the staff is friendly.Ive been going here since it opened in Schenectady - when it did it was touted as a new movie going experience unlike the big chains. What I experienced tonight was just the opposite.I brought my 2 children to watch Finding Dory. I first got 2 pizzas and 2 large sodas. $26. Thought it was high, but so is most places. I went back up for a large popcorn and 2 candies. Another $16. I asked for one of their lids that they tout as innovative. Its a plastic top that can double as a small bowl. They wanted a buck. I told them I had already spent $26 and $16 and I wouldve had a $1 off if I ordered it as a combo, so could I please just get the lid. No. I was in disbelief. They called a manager over, and he seemed upset with me - probably because of the rather large line this particular night. I said I couldnt believe they wouldnt just give me a lid - I asked for a refund. He was obviously mad at me for asking - and even pointedly responded what did you just say when I said this isnt good customer service.I got my refund. Bowtie lost a customer. Sorry, stop saying you arent a big chain when you service says you are. There is another cinema a mile over the bridge that is 1/3rd the cost and would never treat a customer like this over a 3 cent plastic lid.
This place reminds you that you may be able to dress up Schenectady, but you cant take her out... gets the job done as a movie theater, would be nice if you could bring your drink inside rather then chugging it in the hallway. Im sure there are a bunch of insurance liabilities to come with that. But it would be nice.
Great place for movies ! Having a beer with the movie is an added perk . I will stop by just to buy popcorn sometimes because its so good . I have brought my grandsons to your free movie program & that was also fun with up to date movies . Very clean & comfortable , a recommend for sure
Nice theater. Clean, well-maintained, friendly staff, above-average concessions. Picture quality and sound are very high grade for the area. Ive always had a positive experience here.
My favorite movie theater, free parking at the garage after 5pm and weekends, reasonable prices compared to theaters at the malls, great popcorn, plus a good selection of food items. Very clean. Its our first choice.
Had an issue tonight with an adolescent group of patrons. When I went out to complain the staff immediately addressed it and was able to enjoy the rest of the movie. They even continued to monitor the situation to ensure there were no further problems. Was very satisfied with their response!!!
Overpriced...worst 8 dollar bag of popcorn Ive ever had...nearly broke a tooth..threw half of it away...All I can say for the place is the seats are comfortable...Drive a mile down the road and go to a REAL theatre...the Scotia Cinema....
I rented out a Theatre at Bowtie for the viewing of Black Panther, it ended up being an incredibly huge community event. Over 400 people came out for the event, the staff was absolutely amazing, the Manager was the greatest help in planning up to the event. We will be doing it again!#saveourstreets
It was okay. I was going to see a movie and my boyfriend and I left because there were teenagers talking within the first ten mins of the movies. We told the manager and got a refund, but the kids should not have been in there. The movoe was Rated R
Been going to the Schenectady theatre for some time now. Most visits the staff is friendly and theatres are clean and well maintained. Unfortunately our last visit weve noticed a lack of staffing and controlling your viewing experience. Had one our worst movie going experiences, people talking throughout the show, cellphone usage, not once any staff checking in during the movie to stop this behavior. It sad to loss out on a local theatre due to this experience. Will not be going back any time soon.
Extremely poor management of a relatively new facility in downtown Schenectady. I am an avid movie goer and the restrooms are disgusting each and every time I go there. Matinee or evening, weekday or weekend, there are empty soap dispensers, stalls without toilet paper and dirty sinks. My husband said the male bathrooms had 3 broken urinals out of 4! We now only go there if a particular film cant be seen anywhere else at a time that works for us. The management staff should be fired.
I wish there were half stars because I would add another. The theater is beautiful, modern, nostalgic, and a great place to catch a movie. The one drawback was that I didnt enjoy their popcorn. It was a bit stale and I just didnt eat it.
The etiquette of the crowd was abhorrent. The staff needs to continually monitor the behavior during the movie. Not once did a Bow Tie staff walk through the theater. Guests in the audience were literally ready to fight over kicking the back of seats. Also a pack of unattended youth caused so much commotion and disrupted the movie yet they were allowed to remain in the theater. I do not plan on returning.
Went and saw Uncut Gems. Awesome movie! The theater was very clean and the prices were reasonable and the staff was very friendly. The food was delicious and fresh.
Great Customer service! But prices of popcorn and drinks are crazy high! Clean theater but filthy bathrooms! They need maintenance crews bad! Other then that it was a good experience.
Long time customer who really enjoys his movie going experiences at Bow Tie. Clean and well mantained, great staff and better popcorn than most other theatres in the area. Tuesday rates for show and concessions are unbeatable. See you at the movies.
Good experience. Comfortable seating. Lobby was a little messy.
Lobby and concession stand are pretty clean...but Ive been here 2 times in the past month and was told we cant go in the theater because they were cleaning it, then get in the theater and it literally looks like a popcorn machine exploded with all its fury in there. Hey I get you wont get every kernal but there was literally cups still in the holder and buckets on the ground. But hey guess we cant win em all
Cost $$ Tuesdays are the best nights to come. Cheap tickets, cheap popcorn and drink. Regular nights are $10 tickets and the food isnt worth the price. Clean environment. Friendly people.
All the screens are long and narrow. Love the services and the opportunity to drink alcohol in the cinema, but if its a popular show arrive early to grab a good seat else you may feel like you are too far from the screen.
Dakota & the entire Movieland 6 staff have always treated my wife and I with politeness, professionalism, and respect. Can not thank them enough for alwas being so accommodating and welcoming!
Good popcorn and they have Coke products!
The place is clean and My son and I come often. It is too bad the law enforcement discount has stopped. The seats are comfortable as well.
I love this place. Its always clean and the cheapest in the area. The snacks are always good and overall cheaper than the bigger guys. I like this theater. I actually prefer bowtie. I dont feel like theyre robbing me for every cent like some others.
It was great to be back to the movies. As usual bow tie very nice and clean
Good deal on Tuesdays. $7 adult Tix and $5 any size popcorn ..seats need to be updated, so couldnt give it 5 stars.
At first they played the wrong video but fixed it.
It was nice but it looked like no one cleaned up from the previous showing. So much trash on the floor and seats. Especially because there was only about 10 of us in there.
This is a very nice clean theater. Relatively new and well kept. Parking is the only shortcoming. Most likely you will need to park in the Schdy municipal garage which may or may not charge.
Nice movie theater. I ordered a pizza from their menu and was expecting something slightly larger than something about 6-7 inches in diameter for the money. Other than that no complaints.
Wed have had a better time if we hadnt had to witness staff moving disruptive people from the movie! Good job to them for getting them out, but did it really need to take half the movie to do it?
Love movies? Get their Criterion Club Card and earn points for free movies by buying movie tickets And concession stand. By using the card at both it adds up to free stuff (let the points ride for a free movie or cash them in for free popcorn). Also matinee prices are till 6p.m. so movies are just cheaper here.
Staff was fun and friendly, and the theater was clean. I feel tickets and food were overpriced. Lots of teens and families. Overall a good experience
There was hardly anybody there which was a plus but the mens bathroom was completely just disgusting, my husband and 5 year old went in to use the restroom and every single urinal was out of service and every toilet was plugged up with some kind of bodily waste... Is my 5 year old actually gagged and I had to take him into the womens room. We told a employee about it and they said they knew about it and a plumber was on their way they should of just roped off that bathroom instead of letting people walk into such a disgusting sight. Gross. For as gross as it was it must have been like that for a while ...shame on them for not getting someone in their sooner to fix it!
Great place. Clean. Comfy seats. Not crowded during the days. Free parking if you get your ticket validated.
Absolutely disgusting. There was trash everywhere. Trash cans were overfilled. When we went to sit down, took forever to get the movie going. Was late coming on and trash on the floor and seats. The kids they had working were all on cellphones
Nice modern and clean theater. The staff is friendly and helpful. Popcorn was well buttered and tasty. Good selection of adult beverages.
The best movie place ever. Safe. Family friendly. In and out and back on your way without any problems, pain, or discomfort. Would revisit every time.
Friendly service clean movie theater Great low prices
Its close to my home, able to walk and get there quickly!!!Learned Tue is the BEST day to go, awesome and good way to spend time wiith your children on a week night.!!! I highly recommend this establishment!!!#
Lower price than some other theaters in the area. The garage on the other side of Broadway has free parking in the evening and on weekends. This theater should be more popular.
Enjoyed our time there...
Great place good service
Always super clean, staff is very friendly, great environment for the movies. Has been our 1st choice since opening.
Always been a good place to watch movies but I found discomfort tonight walking into the screen room and the first thing you smell is rotten garbage instead of clean air. So yeah that just slayed my life, other then that I had fun tonight
Their prices are less expensive than regal. They are not as busy and my lil buddy with autism does better here. They also sponsor special needs viewings for children- sensible movies.👍
Ok, tickets are cheap! Food and snacks are crazy cheap! Clean, roomy and situated in the new downtown Schenectady. This will be my new go to theater.
Nice clean theater with comfortable seating. Prices are very reasonable and personell are friendly and helpful. Good popcorn, too.
Have been going here all my life. Good service, okay food and snacks, good seating. Not big auditoriums
I didnt know about Bow Tie Cinemas since I dont get to Schenectady that much, but it is a bit of a surprise. Small clean movie theater, with good food and friendly staff.
Used to love this place. We preferred it over any other theatre. Getting pretty dumpy, now, though. Not my first choice.
Great place to see a movie. Liberal matinee times, popcorn refills & coupon policies make going to the theater with young ones more affordable.
Great deal on Tuesdays. Large theaters and not overly crowded. Good to just sit back relax respect and enjoy the show!
Decent theater, fair ticket prices. Concessions are pricey but very generous portions. I will definitely be back.
Great place when grown adults dont swear at children for laughing at a funny part in the movie. Comfy seat great staff and still the best movie going experience around.
Pretty average to below average snack menu, and the theaters lack any particularly cool features. Overall a very average place, so I cant complain
Great employees! But horrible prices and way too dirty! I only gave it 3 stars cause the employees were nice and they serve beer which is great! :-)
Easy parking, great seats in theater. Popcorn and soda reasonable, matinee pricing a big plus for families of larger sizes.
The Bow Tie Cinemas in Schenectady, NY is one of the best movie theaters in the Capital Region. When it comes to movie theaters in the Capital Region the Bow Tie is one of the best theater in the area. The Bow Tie has stadium seating and good sized movie screens. But perhaps the best attribute that Bow Tie Cinema has going for itself are the alcoholic beverages that can be purchased at the concession stand (Beer & Wine Only). But if your anything like me then the only features that matter are Big Comfortable Seats, Big Movie Screens and Quality Picture & Sound. If those features are important, then I wouldnt watch a movie @ Schenectadys Bow Tie Cinemas. I would go and watch a movie at a Regal Theater. The 2 Best Movie Theaters in the Capital Region are Regal Cinemas. Both are located in the Albany area.Crossgates Mall (IMAX)Colonie Center (RXP)
Great movie theatre. Comfortable, friendly staff, no absurd up-selling and by far the most reasonable prices around.
Ive been coming to this theater for years and I only have good things to say about it. The prices are competitive for the tickets and concessions, the seats are comfortable, and the popcorn tastes great!
If you actually want food don’t bother.
Great place. Best popcorn around. Fair prices as well and very clean.
This is a really nice theater with friendly employees and the parking is free in the parking garage across the street. They serve alcohol but it cant be consumed in the theaters.
Great place for a matinee, reasonably priced, latest film offerings.
Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Loved how clean and open it is, and the seating isnt overcrowded either. Had a great time!
If you go on a Tuesday ticket price has been reduced a great deal. Plus its a very nice theater.
Other than being pricey. This theatre is nice. Comfortable seating. Never over crowded.Staff is friendly.
Great seats, nice food, fair prices, easy parking, rarely crowded, a great place to see a movie!!
Wish they stayed open later
Beautiful theater, decent price, they serve beer/wine, AMAZING popcorn, great staff. Really the best movie theater experience in the capital district.
Nice place. Always clean. Typical overpriced food and drinks but on par with all other cinemas.
Great theater, very reasonable price for first run movies. Seats could be better, but I like only paying $ 15 for a movie large popcorn.
Excellent staff, nice facility, and great prices. Parking is convenient at a close garage but you may be lucky to find something on the curb.
Great prices and good service I like coming here much more than regal cinemas. Movie quality and staff are great and helpful!
Love the bowtie. They sell wine although you cant bring it into the theater unless you sneak it in which is easy.
Always a friendly staff, good prices gourmet level popcorn and a clean theater experience
It was terrible, there wasnt enough Security and the audience wasnt quite, they were rude and didnt get to enjoy the movie , they were throwing papers and hitting everyone in the head , plus this kid was peeing in the floor .. they should give us a refund, and I also smelt pot , but no one did anything about it
My personal favorite theater in the area, friendly staff, less expensive then the mall theaters, never too crowded and, great screen and sound.
One of the few movie options in Schenectady, its comfortable, convenient with a pretty good choice of movies. Black movies are often skipped or are there very briefly.
Clean always. Tickets are affordable but snacks bar is in my opinion too pricey.
Great theater! Parking was free with validation in the garage. Tickets and concessions were reasonably priced.
Clean and welcoming. Super Tuesdays are a deal that cannot be beaten ($6 movies, $5 large popcorn).
Great theather , it is well priced for a family to go to. The people that work their are very nice. Fresh and buttery popcorn.
Loved it wife an i had great time only wish the armrest lifted up so i coyld put arm around wife with out it digging into me
Totally overpriced. The theater was very nice though. Very old school. Which I love.
Matinee only $8.5
Went and saw goosebumps 2 sick flick but the audio was so loud that by my 2nd g i had to leave
I love the SUPER TUESDAY matinee deal.I can stay current on all the latest movies ,without breaking the bank , in nice clean theaters and free parking too .Its a no brainer !!!
Excellent staff. Very helpful and friendly. Theater is beautiful and clean. Also reasonable prices.
Great prices for movies and they usually have the latest and best movies showing. I especially love the matineè showings as the ticket prices are less.
Large theater centered in Schenectady. Ive gone during early morning showings. Is quiet, and cheap. Staff is ok
Reasonable ticket prices better prices on concessions better popcorn!
Bad smell. Seriously needs a deep cleaning. Other than that. Staff is friendly and every welcoming. Love it otherwise. But seriously needs to be cleaned.!!!
Very nice. Very clean. Great picture and sound. Did not like the cloth older seats.
My favorite theater around. People keep trying to get me to go to xgates or Colonie or Rotterdam (viaport) and Im like nope- Bowtie is RIGHT HERE, and so much better.
Excellent was so surprised at how cheap the tickets where and the staff was so friendly and helpful to me and my family. I recommend for u to have ur cinima experience here!!
Clean and cheap. Service was friendly
Nice Cinema ..... Clean and modern...even serves alcohol beverages....the only downside is you will have to park in the parking garage down the road.
Reasonably priced and much less crowded than other theatres. Great snacks selection too.
Its a movie theatee that has beer and wine for evening shows, good theaters reasonable prices, and decent snacks. Whats not to like?
Love watching movies at Bow Tie ,good prices and the best popcorn
Great for shopping around all the great stores before going to see a movie in their huge theaters. Great place
The website is pretty broken. Staff was very friendly. Seats are average quality. They let you pick where to sit when you walk in, no assigned seats!
Fabulous fun entertaining delicious food fabulous drinks always available when you need somebody to show you around and the best shows in the neighborhood
This movie theater is located in a nice little town. I would suggest going early or staying late in the town when you go to movies here.
This is a great theater with comfortable seats and pleasant people. Parking is close and free and the popcorn is great.
Clean nice theater. They were super helpful when I rented out a theater for my wifes birthday.
I have been there couple of times with my daughter and has been the best movie theater that she has been. love it.
Nice clean theater. Very reasonably priced.
The only movie theater l enjoy going too. Staff is friendly and patient and you get a bang for your bucks!
Nice location. The lobby is lush and feels a little like a boutique restaurant, or coffee shop that serves food.
The movie was good but the volume was Way to loud.
Always clean everybody’s polite so nice love to watch my movies there and the prices are right!
Very comfy seating, many food and drink choices including alcohol. Friendly and nice employees.
Nice clean movie theater. Has a food area with tables and chairs. Also has Birthday parties.

Love this place ! Take my son only here for his movies. Always kept up never any issues
This is a very nice theater in Schenectady with easy parking at a nearby garage. Highly recommended.
Slippery floor in seats aisle. Smelled stuffy. My chair arm was all sticky..so the movie was good.
I love going to this theater & the ticket prices is so much cheaper than others
Loved it the staff is really nice and fun, had a great time!
Small, intimate theater with great prices. Less than one block from major CDTA bus stop, Amtrak station.
Clean, well kept theatre. Great deals if you go on a Tuesday night.
Its not crowed which is NICE. FOOD prices lower than the mall theatre s but seats all lint Laden?
Ushers rude and obnoxious. If I did make a hissy fit that I have sugar difficulty they would have taken my juice and sweets
Great customer service, love how the tickets are so cheap and how comfortable the seats are
Great prices, excellent service, great selection, always happy when my wife and I go here to watch a movie!

2022-04-30Lobby was super cute at sunset. Food items (nachos, mozzarella cheese sticks, popcorn) were not bad, especially given that we went to the movies with hunger. We paid cheap for our tickets with Tmobile Tuesdays, so we were okay paying for so much food.The seats inside are outdated and small (been to better), and when we ordered our tickets online, the location was not clear. Maybe because a lot of children were expected for this movie, the audio was not as loud and surround as I am accustomed, or maybe its just not as good.All in all, Id definitely go again for funsies, but Ive been to better, updated theaters, hence 3 stars.

2022-06-19Went to see the new jurassic park. Got some consessions and enjoyed the movie! The theater is big and the chairs are very comfortable. Bow tie is definitely holding up to their high standards. We even delta with a new employee in training who did great and his trainers appeared to be doing a great job. Keep up the good work!

2022-03-13Chairs are filthy. Definitely did a quick walk thru after last show but they didnt clean it all. Still wrappers and popcorn all over. People should clean after themselves but if not staff should be cleaning. Would rather stay home in my clean home.

2022-06-05No free refills on large slushees. Seats are old stadium style. Movie screen and audio pretty outdated too. However tickets were cheap and they allowed us to use ticket passes for top gun. Nice people

2022-06-27Im giving this rating cause when I got my second refill, by accident I dropped it. I never drank it. I ask if they can refill it, they say no. Bad customer service.

2021-09-26This is a pretty awesome theater. Nice, clean, and spacious, they have a nice setup. The snack items are reasonably priced, and the staff are pretty friendly. If you still enjoy going to see you movie, this is a good one to do so. Also worth getting the membership, $20 a year for a boatload of perks? Great investment to make.

2022-03-05I like the small town feel of Bow Tie! One thing that is very good you get to butter & salt your own popcorn! So yummm lol if you never been go check it out!

2022-04-12They kind of tease you with selling alcohol, but not letting you bring it into the actual theatre. A little expensive but a solid theatre with many movies running all the time.
