Great movie selections for hospitality Mondays! Great they give back to their own. Cheers!
Beware of their cancellation policy if you need to cancel same day reservations. Violet Crown instituted a new policy recently that they will not refund your money on the day of the show. Instead, they issue you "Rain Check" tickets and then hold them in a drawer at the Theatre until you ask for them to be redeemed. Customers are not able to book those "Rain Check" tickets for seats online but rather, you have to call them directly to book your seats. In addition, Violet Crown refuses to mail the "Rain Check" tickets to me at my home address. While I will miss their original programming, I will no longer patronize the Violet Crown. Perhaps, they should take a cue from the Alamo Cinema Drafthouse, which actually works with their patrons to resolve issues and either refunds you the $$ paid or sends the "Rain Check" tickets in the mail.
This is an obviously older theater, but the small bar is wonderfully appointed. The prices will run you similarly to going to Alamo, but with smaller theaters you get a much more intimate atmosphere. The sound system in the theater I was in was great, but unfortunately their seating is fairly basic and can't compete with the comfortable seating in other places.
Good drink selection! Gelato is on point!
Good theater experience, too.
This is hands down one of my favorite places to watch films. Great beer selection, decent food options, including cake balls and cupcakes from a local bakery. The seats are quite comfy and include cupholders and fold out tables at each seat to accommodate your popcorn or other food (like those cake balls that I mentioned). The first row is also made up of lounge chairs if you're looking for an even cozier viewing option. If you're looking for a great place to watch independent films in Austin, you can't really beat the Violet Crown. Heck, I'm from Houston and whenever we come to Austin we make it a point to catch a film at the Crown.
Great food and bar. Highly recommend the beet sliders.
