I love the Row House! It's such a unique little spot. There's only one theater, so they tend to choose a few movies around a theme and screen them throughout the week. The themes are always fun -- Ghibli Week, Tight Pants Appreciation Week, Families Ugh!, and of course Cat Video Fest are some stand outs. We saw a double feature of the Evil Dead 1&2 here around Halloween last year, and it was a blast.There are plenty of restaurants and bars within a couple of blocks on Butler street, so it's easy to grab a bit before, after, or in between showings.The Row House connects to Bierport, so you can snag a craft brew to sip during your showing. The Row House also has a variety of interesting snacks as well as your classic popcorn and soda. Plus every once in a while there's an event going on -- once I walked in and was given a lei (???) for a summer movie event, which is still on my dresser to this day.Overall it always makes for a fun trip to the movie! Highly recommend supporting this cool indie theater

A really unique experience. When our plans cancelled in Pittsburgh, we sought out the local arthouse cinema and we were not disappointed. This ended up being a really cute date night for us as we saw a late night showing of "The Princess Pride" inside this single-theater cinema.Row House is quite literally in a row house. It's slender, with maybe 30 seats total in it? It's a one-screen cinema that has a lot of personality. Could the seats be newer and more comfortable? Sure. But for the price we weren't mad. It's cozy and the moment you walk in you catch a good vibe. It felt fun even before the film started.I loved that Row House Cinema was attached to a wine shop where you could purchase items and literally walk them into the theater (they're connected). They also had a cute snack stand with all the basics, so we grabbed a popcorn and two soft drinks. I loved learning about their breadth of programming and the concessionaire gave us some free stickers. If I were local, I'd totally be a member here or buy a selection of film vouchers! This is a really cool culture stop on your tour of Pittsburgh. Long live independent and arthouse cinema!

Row House has some excellent and thoughtful programming. The room is somewhat small, but it's a big screen.It's a chance to see some great films in a repertory setting, a beautiful reprieve from the huge chains.There's light food, and a bottle shop upstairs.You can join the Film Club, which is a sweet offer.Clean and well managed with great dining opportunities in the neighborhood.

This theatre was very nostalgic. It was the perfect theatre to see an old movie. We went to see Rope Directed by Alfred Hitchcock. The theatre was small and quaint. They were playing several Hitchcock movies through out the day and according to the schedule had several themed movie days/weeks coming up.The Row House had a full service concession stand and the staff was very friendly. We did not purchase tickets ahead of time and had no problem getting a seat. Street parking could be tricky. The theatre is located in a busy area.The seats were the only thing in theatre that appeared to need some repair/updating. Many were quite worn, but still comfortable.It was so nice to see an older theatre with good attendance. I would definitely go back to see another movie when i am in town.

Bro! There needs to be more places like this. I was in Bierport one night grabbing a mix six for the hotel room after a walk around Lawrenceville and then we went downstairs to enjoy a cold beer on tap. So after enjoying the beer I went to the bathroom and on the way there I smelled popcorn. That's when I discovered there was a cinema inside. I honestly had no idea they were connected even though I had seen the sign outside many times lolSo, the next day we pre-ordered tickets to see the late night showing of Clue. We came early and had a beer downstairs at Bierport and then made our way upstairs to get some popcorn and snacks and head inside to get our seats. I loved watching the movie in such a small cinema. It reminded me of this cool cinema I used to go to when I was in college. They are the best!I can't wait to go back. :)Highly Recommended!

This place is great with unique movies playing and you can hit up the cool beer stop in the front right beforehand. I don't know if it's the same business but you can also go downstairs and find more beer and sega!. Great throw back date night!

The pandemic really got me out of visiting the theater until recently when I went with my friend. I'm happy to say that I enjoy this theater as much as I remember. They've done some slight renovations, but they still are a welcoming and friendly place with a nice craft beer spot under the theater. Every time I've been there, the staff has just been exceptionally nice, and it offers a very eclectic mix of films. They are one of the few places around me that offer cult classics like The Room, Rocky Horror, and Ghoulies, and they also offer some great classics like North by Northwest and Trainspotting. The only thing I really don't enjoy is that the seating is a bit cramped, but I can't let myselfhold that against them as the theater is located inside a city block as opposed to nowadays when cineplexes are huge entities often built on their own. If you're big, tall, or both, I'd definitely consider buying tickets online and trying to be selective of your seats. I 'd absolutely recommend this place to any big fan of movies and I'm hoping to make this spot a regular visit.

Visited RHC twice this past weekend (both a late night viewing of Clue on Friday night and a midday viewing of When Harry Met Sally... on Saturday) and both visits were so welcoming and fun! I've been to Row House a few times in the past for some fun movies, but I realized that up until this weekend I hadn't visited since well before the pandemic hit. It's a gem of a theater and is clearly run by movie-lovers, and they do so much to try to encourage people to widen their horizons of film and culture. And the themes are always so fun! Their popcorn and snacks are also delicious, and I love that they include some local treats in addition to classic movie fare. I will say that the seats are a little tight if you're a slightly larger person like myself, but I think the comfort seating options may be slightly wider. I'll try those next time, or the couch seating up in the front! Can't wait to return ASAP!

A wide variety of historic cinema, classic films, and everything from anime to indie films! The taphouse downstairs is well stocked, and there's something for everyone.
