A shining gem in the Atlanta theater scene for any serious cinema fan. Youre not going to find the latest record-setting blockbusters or the rowdy crowds that accompany them at this serene monument to film, thankfully. Theres a time and place for both, and plenty of great theaters in town for them. But if you want to crack open a cold beer and experience the world film festival circuits best offerings, in the setting they were crafted for, Tara is your theater.

This is my favourite movie theatre in Atlanta. Its a classic. I love that it shows Independent Films. Awesome staff and super clean. And they have StarBucks !

Quite an awesome place to watch movie. I love it!

A small theater tucked away in Atlanta and one of the few places to catch more artistic films.

Best theatre and only theatre that attracts well-behaved viewers. People who attend this theatre are serious movie watchers and stay quiet while watching. It is a small venue, easy to navigate and shows the more offbeat, artsy films. It is the one remaining old theater from the days when going to see a show was an event, not a living room party. I will always love this theatre.

Most treasured theater in Atlanta. Presents the best collection of movies around. Dares to dare. Great choices in offbeat movies. Some absolute gems that are overlooked by the main stream. Regal has many fine theaters, but this is their best contribution to lovers of film.

Always like this theatre. Clean and well run. Popcorn was good also.

Nice little movie theater with first come first served seating. When I went it was pretty empty so I got a really good seat. The seats aren’t nearly as comfortable as newer theaters though, so that’s a big negative especially since you’re paying the same price as a newer theater.

The theater is clean and the staff we encountered were polite and friendly. My issue is this is an old theater with old style seating. It has not been updated so the screens are smaller and the sound is not as good. The ticket prices are the same as the newer theaters in the area which is kind of crazy. I think the tickets should be less since it’s an older theater.

This is a classic movie theater that plays a lot of independent films. Its a great place to visit in Atlanta.

Nice and clean. Great staff. Got there 10 mins before show time, and there were at least 15 minutes, of a variety, of freakin ads. If I had known, I would have brought a pillow and a blanket till the show started. Just keep screen blank with low soft music till the show begins. Otherwise make my ticket cheaper. uggghhh

One of Atlantas OG movie theaters! Great place to catch indie flicks.

Went to see Apollo 11 and enjoyed the old school feel and quaint feel. I didnt get a chance to get snacks, but I saw that they had the standard options youd see in a theater. The actual theaters were clean and had comfy seats. I know where to go see films when I want to avoid the chaos of Atlanta

The Tara is a long time Atlanta cinema screening films popular with general audiences as well as those that appeal to film buffs. The seats are especially comfortable and the popcorn is passable. Parking is free and plentiful. The theater is easily visible and accessible from the street. Ticket prices (at the time Im writing this) are on the high end compared to other area movie theaters.

This is a very nice intimate movie theater. The rug are vacuum and the floors or waxed. A nice movie theater for a date night.

This is a place for cinema. Very clean, classic, and quaint. I go here for a specific and enriching film selection

Bathrooms were clean, tap water nice, service good. Enjoyed movie.

Seats very uncomfortable. Popcorn did not have a fresh taste. You are not able to butter your own popcorn. Tickets are over priced

I have always loved this movie theater! They always have a great selection of features: foreign movies, off beat independent film makers, etc...The Tara still has the wonderful feel of old time movie theaters. Watching movies at home on Netflix is a lame alternative to the experience of watching a movie on a giant screen surrounded by the darkness and quiet of a real theater!

They show good movies that are not available in other theaters in Atlanta.

Nice theater, great sound and picture. Fresh refreshments, decent wine too

Friendly staff and enjoyed a great film as part of the Atlanta Jewish Film Festival.

Popcorn is good. Show offerings are interesting tend toward artsy. Older theater, but well maintained. Theaters are smaller, but sound and picture are pretty good. Traffic to here is tricky, but the parking lot is big enough. Nothing state of the art, but better customer service than most theaters.

I bought a pretzel at the consession stand and watched as the same individual who sold me my tickets and handled money, touched my food with unwashed hands. I asked him if he would mind getting me a different pretzel since he didnt wear gloves and he proceeded to put the frozen pretzel he had just touched back into the freezer. He said we dont wear gloves here and then had to call the manager just to locate the gloves since he didnt know where it was. I recieved a pretzlheated in a mircowave, no salt (except thatel which the attendent gave me via stink eye), and no sauce in the end. 0/10 unsanitary/would not recomend

Great staff and they have unique movies that you cant see everywhere else. Comfy seats small theaters

We have always loved the Tara because they have very good films that rarely come to Atlanta. The staff is kind and helpful and the theater is clean.

Nice small multi screen theatre. Attracts a diverse crowd of Indie lovers. Nice cafe in the large well lighted lobby. Really good latte. Saw the Miles Davis biopic with Black. Fun to spend time with him, a Davis like look and character. He misbehaved a little but still...I liked the film particularly Don Cheadle in it as Miles and the dark beauty who played his wife. A complex man was Miles. Not a walk in the park but well worth the effort to know him. Were his abuses drug related or something more sinister? In so many ways he was a stand up guy in a time when all Black men were routinely disregarded, disrespected, brutalized and dismissed regardless of their status high or low. He stood tall and took his licks but not graciously. For the woman who wrote Mad At Miles, Im mad at you.

Ive been a patron for over 25 years. Love this theatre!

Clean. Great employees.

Classic cinema art-house! Love films? See foreign and indie films here!!

Intimate little theater - always has interesting movies you probably wont be able to find anywhere else.

Theater is huge, decent seats, and great picture. Tall beer is 10$ and massive!

Old school vibe; small theater that is super clean with welcoming staff. Love the selection of films they show, particularly the indie/critically acclaimed line-up. This Regal accepts Movie Pass and the Regal rewards card. If you dont have the Regal Crown Club Rewards, get it (free & you get to redeem points for items at concession or online). Side note - small detail: seats in some (maybe all) do not recline, although they are new and well cushioned.

Four screens, comfortable seats, good popcorn.

Great place to see movies that arent always mainstream.

Love the Tara theatre! Best films anywhere. Just saw NEVER LOOK AWAY! One of the best movies ever. Quite a story!

Nice and clean. I enjoy the off the beaten path movies they offer.

Local art theater has been in business for decades and is a great place to catch films in limited release. Separate handicap restroom with caregiver access. Many great restaurants nearby.

Great, well - established theater operated by people who really care about movies. Ive been going there for over 45 years and am usually there at least once a week. Also, for people who love Independent films they will take some of the riskiest films on which they make little to no money simply because they believe thats part of their mission.

Really liked this theater! Had an old school feel to it, very clean!

Basic facility and food choices! Great choice of movies!

They survive against the multiplex by choosing smart titles and feature a vintage vibe.

Comfy seats, beer on tap. Winning combination.

Good quality theatre with nice vintage and comfy seats. Coming here to see a film is a treat.

I love the character of this old cinema and the spacious lobby for waiting on friends or hanging between showings. It feels like a movie theater that could actually be used as a movie setting. Last visited to take my kids to see Isle of Dogs and the picture and sound quality was on point and the popcorn was better than expected and we had a friendly experience all around.

I love their film selections but I wish they would have shows after 9pm on weekdays.

Great mix of art house films and blockbusters. Fresh popcorn and a 22 ounce Stella. Red, white, or bubbly. Yes you can get milk duds or raisinettes too.

Great theater. Love the vibe and staff.

Such a cool little art theatre! they really do play a lot of movies that are rarely available anywhere else nearby in Atlanta. the seats are comfy and the theatres are actually really really nice and have these pretty drapey red curtains and all that. they have plenty of night showings so its good to pop in if you happen to have a free evening. its my fav little theatre now! oh and lots of free parking available

The place to watch independent movies. Saw Shadow here. Awesome movie.

False advertising on website, wasn’t actually playing the movie we pre-ordered. We get there and can’t see the movie and we were told to dispute with our bank to get the charges refunded. This theater has no way to reverse a charge? That is one of the most basic retail transactions you can make. At least the employees were kind about it. There was supposed to be an email sent out but we never got one.Not coming to this theater again!

Great little theater to check out the small indie films and even some blockbusters. Its nice to see a a big chain like Regal cater to the less mainstream films. Very cozy theaters inside

I love coming here to watch movies. It is very well kept. The bathrooms and theatres are always clean. The seats are very comfortable.

Pleasant, safe, comfortable and reasonable parking!

I like catching the early discounted movies here. Not your typical type of film here like youll see at the other theaters. Its clean enough and peaceful enough so you can enjoy the movie. Nice place.

Not crowded clean friendly staff

Love the movies this theater shows. Comfortable seats too.

My first movie in years great place!

Definitely a niche in the theater experience department. Eclectic feel, indie and thoughtful movies, you wont find the cliche blockbuster combo movies of sweat, sex and explosions. Its not a dinner type place, they offer typical movie theater food and expensive alcohol. Id recommend checking it out if you get a chance though!

Have “real movies”. Storytelling at its best

It is a nice theater, friendly staff, clean, large seating capacity, I would go back if there was a movie I wanted to see.

I love the independent showings at this theater. While it is small, it is clean and has a good variety of concessions. Parking is a bit cramped due to its location at the edge of a shared parking lot.

I like this theater for the films it offers that differ from those at other theaters. They dont play the typical blockbusters, but independent style films instead.The popcorn used to be really good here, but lately it has the texture of packing peanuts.At least one of the screening rooms has a horrible odor of musty mold. Its distracting.The staff are all friendly and polite.

This was my first visit to a Regal theatre. The daytime matinee was almost $14. Its not a modern theatre with an expansive selection of concessions. But my star rating is not centered around those elements. The customers I encountered seemed if they had never encountered a single person, a person of color...I am not quite sure what the deal was. Yet during the movie they talked and had their feet on the seats.IT WAS A STRANGE ATMOSPHERE.

Just visiting in the area for Christmas and really wanted to see La La Land. This was the only theater around that was showing it and I am glad that I took the time to find my way to their doorstep. It does have an old-fashioned theater field with a little ticket window. There were small touches like an Actresses and Actors signs above their respective restrooms that made it feel really intimate and not a typical big box just-gimme-your-money-be-quiet-watch-the-movie-and-get-out type experience. The seats werent the over-kill deluxe recliners some other movie theaters seem to be overcompensating with, but just simple comfortable cushion seats which just added to its appeal.I wish I had a movie theater where I lived with as much character!

Atlanta doesnt have a great selection of movie theaters. Fortunately, the lil gem is still around and brings variety. They play mostly indie films that probably wont show anywhere else in the whole state.IG: leia.bray

First time here...small but unique. I could tell I was sitting in history, last night. Saw Boy Erased and enjoyed myself... will be back!

UA Tara is reminiscent of the theaters of old......cozy, only a couple screens, dark, but still full of life. The seating area in the front is a nice touch while looking at the vintage pictures all around the lobby. It can get a little toasty if there are a lot of people but its typically not THAT crowded on a regular day. If you are looking for more mainstream movies, you probably wont find them here but if you like a good indie, vintage, etc type then this is the place. Great date night spot also!

They often run independent high-quality movies you cant see other places. The popcorn was fresh. Smaller theatres, which is fine by me.

So many of the best movies Ive ever seen I saw here. Movies that you wont see elsewhere. And I would also like to give the people that come here to see movies like me 5 stars as well. The best crowd consistently, friendly, interesting to talk to, well mannered, and never exhibiting the cringe worthy behavior thats become standard at the other theaters. Crying babies, using cell phones, talking instead of whispering, always leaving a negative mark on your movie experience. Never at Tara.

In general, pleasant experience. The 1 star off is for how the seats seem a little straight-backed and dont recline. I leaned to the side to be comfortable.

Service is normally pretty fast

Legit spot! Good quality Movie theater, reasonable price, accessible place, and no problem with the parking lot.

Friendly staff at this Regal-affiliated theater. They showcase a nice assortment of indie films and documentaries that are refreshing breaks from the Hollywood blockbusters. Be prepared for non-reclining seats, though. But, they are both MoviePass and Regal Rewards compatible. =)

God bless the Tara! It may not have reclining chairs, but they screen terrific and artistic films that are so worth seeing. If you have any interest beyond the latest blockbuster, then the Tara is for you!

Solid of dated space for relatively indie releases. One of the best aspects, aside from the budget popcorn, is that the Regal Card is accepted. Moviegoers, delight in the points!

I saw the Mr. Rogers documentary here and it was wonderful. I got a pint of beer and nestled myself into my seat. The employees are respectable. Never see much of a line here but I assume that is thanks to how quickly your ticket and concessions are given.It is an art theater so do not come here expecting to view Avengers: Infinity War lol. It is a smaller theater more comparable in size to the Publix it shares a lot with. Definitely a good date spot

I like this movie theater because is very close home, is comfortable and saw even Japanese movies

I love this movie theatre. This is where I go to watch documentaries or independent films! Their selection of films is always great and stand out from all the box office homeruns that usually lack a good story line. Thank you Tara!

I love this cinema! Its emphasis on indie films makes it worth visiting and checking out the pictures.

I loved it going here. I came to this theater to see a film that is in limited release and it was the closest theater showing the movie. This theatre only shows limited releases or indie films. From what Ive seen the customers are mostly elderly and thats not a bad thing since it made for a very peaceful environment and great movie going experience Ill likely come back!

Another Atlanta theatre jewel. Great film selection, and films tend to stay a while, so if you thought you missed one- take hope! Publix next door-- perfect for sneak snacks (;

Tara is the best theater in the city!

It was okay, didnt have luxurious stadium seating and it was very expensive.

I love this theatre because i always find their international movies that won’t be shown otherwhere in town, but i feel it is somehow seasonal , i would like if it shows more often and have a bigger advertisement to its theatre

Love love love the Tara! Classic old school theater featuring consistently great movie choices. If you are looking for state of the art stadium seating, food and drink delivery, IMAX etc. This is not the place for you. If you want to enjoy a good movie that you may not have even heard of this is the spot. We have been here a dozen times at least and only saw one movie we didnt care for (Loving...sorry but it was horrible). Great spot for date night.

Cool little indie theater. They only have 4 screens (obvious by the name) but always have a good selection of critically acclaimed movies and movies that typically screen at festivals but dont make it to the major AMCs and Regals of the world. Came here to see quite a few of the Academy Award nominated films.

Had a wonderful time. Love the old time atmosphere!

Good food, good theater

We all have flat panels and streaming services at home. A theatre is only about the experience, right?Well... here are the highlights: stale popcorn, no butter when asked to have some, then waaaaay too much. The wine is $11 for less than a regular pouring, the beer is poured by kids from a respectable bottle into a plastic cup, for each drink youre carded even after getting a 3 drink max wristband.Theres a security guard at the door who I witnessed enforcing policy of checking bags and keeping the peace because of middle aged angry customers who like their privacy rights.Not exactly the escape I look for.

Could have been more accommodating concerning did but otherwise nice. small intimate theater.

I have been experiencing the finest cinematic offerings from around the world since I was a wee lad at this establishment.A pillar of culture and community in a city that cant afford any additional losses in this department.

This is one of my favorite theaters. Prices are relatively reasonable by comparison, especially concessions. Popcorn isnt ridiculously salty; small drinks can actually pass for smallish.Chairs are getting older, but still comfortable.

While we prefer Midtown Arts for most of our art cinema experiences, Tara often plays flicks you wont see on any other screen in Atlanta -- and plays them ... and plays them ... and plays them. Seriously, dont rush to see anything here; itll be on one of their four screens for weeks and weeks.The staff is fairly friendly (Jeff, who takes tickets at the door, is a favorite of ours), and the seats are more comfortable than in most theaters. You can still get a pretty good big screen experience here if youre in the right theater, but at least one of the screens, created by subdividing what used to be one screen, is cramped and the auditorium is a bit shallow.If somethings playing you want to see, dont hesitate to go here.

Love this art house. You wont find avengers here, thankfully.

One of a few remaining theaters where watching movies with others is actually enjoyable.

Small but lovely theater that shows the great films that you wont find in the larger multiplexes. It has a classic layout with a flatter seating area but it provides a great experience!

Good venue. Easy, free parking. I like the independent films that they show here. Plus I like that they have festivals here.

Very good experience. Great movie theater for indie films. Kinda clean, not the most comfortable seats. Great movie selection.

Clean theatre, good popcorn. Im really glad theres a theatre that plays indie/international movies here in Atlanta.
