Fair price on Tuesday and great benefit as a member! Food is pricy, but reasonable for a cinema. Quick ticket and food&beverage service, helpful and super friendly staff!!Clean restroom. A lot of stalls.

We loved this place when it first opened. However, there have been many changes and we will not be going there again. Two weeks ago we were with our 5 year old granddaughter who had a broken leg. At the end of the movie, the lights never came on. We were in a dark theater at the far end of the entrance. It was frightening. Today we attempted to see Untouched Gems. The trailer was so loud it was disturbing. Only 2 other people were in the movie. I went out to ask them to turn down. They never did. When movie began, it remained so loud that you could not even understand the dialogue. It was so uncomfortable that we left. We were told that it was set at normal hearing level. We suggested that they go and see if it was comfortable. By the time they walked back, we had missed the entire set up of the movie. We asked for a refund. They said that because we bought through Fandango, we had to get it through them. We had also bought tickets for Knives Out. So we lost over $60.There is also a new way of purchasing food and drinks, which is confusing and not set up correctly. We are done.

This is my new favorite theater to go to. When you first get to the top of the escalators, they have a nice open lobby that leads to concessions or their bar/restaurant. The theater isn’t extended explicitly 18/21+ but if you want to bring your children it’s the same price as adults - no discounts. They do custom cocktails at the bar for most movie releases and you can bring them into the theater. The food is a bit different from your typical theater fare, with gourmet popcorn offerings, legit pizza, and then your typical soda and candy concessions.For the theater itself, it’s only reserved seating. The seats recline and have a decent sized tray for your food with multiple cup holders for beverages.Photo: For Rise of Skywalker they made a Blue Milk drink that was insanely good. I hope they can continue to make it off menu, as I would definitely stop by again just for this drink.

Theater was clean and the seats were comfortable and spacious. The concessions menu had more than just popcorn and soda, which was nice. They also validate parking for the seaport garage at 75 Sleeper St if youre driving.

Best movie theater in the Boston area. They have fancy recliners with heating. There’s a full bar. Lots of food options in the attached restaurant as well as in the theater part. It’s always very clean, and the staff is very friendly.

Heated reclining seats and polite service. Plus no extra members get real benefits like discounted pricing and on this visit we got a free small popcorn each. We have been fans of the icon theatres since our time on New Jersey. We had one prior visit here when we first moved to Boston and were living right next to it in Seaport. That visit was a terrible experience. This one a year later was awesome.

Nice new thearter with great chairs and tables attached to them. Some of the seats even have a heated seat button. Which is amazing. Some of the movie are offered in Dolby Atmos and 4k laser projectors. Which is a must have in 2020.

I LOVE this theater. One of the best in Boston. parking is expensive but its in Seaport so everything is expensive. Awesome reclining,heated seats. The food is way above average and kind of worth the extra cost - its tasty!

Review №16

A great theater! Its comfortable and never crowded. The seats recline and are heated, which is a great feature since most movie theaters are always cold to me. My husband and I always opt for ShowPlace ICON when we want to enjoy a new movie. Also, there is a little lounge behind the ticket check point that is like a hidden gem. Its pretty big and they make really good drinks.

Those of us living on the waterfront or North End can walk to the theater. If you join ICON FREE membership, you get really cheap tickets on Tuesdays with a free small popcorn! And the theater has huge heated seats, cup holders and if you want to hold hands, you can get joint seats. Get there and theres no seats in the main part of the theater?? Go up to the very front section and the seats lay out almost flat! So I actually choose to sit there!!Treat yourself to a really good time. Take your friend and share popcorn and a double seat :)

Review №19

The theater is great except they dont have freshly made pop corn. The pop corn they had available was from the previous day and would not make a fresh batch! Since you pay the snacks up front I didnt have a chance to chose and felt obligated to keep it. Tasted awful...Thats the only reason I gave such a low score.

I went to this movie theatre during my most recent visit to Boston and the place was awesome. The movie theatre was very clean, spacious and an enjoyable experience. The seats recline and are heated - a real treat! The food court has many options including beer and wine. One of the staff members came to greet me and checked in on me before and during the movie. The restroom facilities were spotless. I went during the week, early in the day. It seemed like a ghost town, but Im sure its busy on the weekends. Its also located in downtown Boston, easily accessible by public transportation.

Awesome movie theater. Saw Endgame there. The theater is on top of a Kings bowling a restaurant and the parking garage which was awesome because it was pouring when we went. But nice small theater... Reclining HEATED seats. Folding in/out tray for food. Really nice. Decent size screen. Definitely would recommend going there. Nice dinner n movie date night type of area.

Complete lack of customer service. It was a very painful process just to get popcorn and a beer. The theater itself was nice with comfortable seats that even have heaters with great sound and picture.

Great food, great seats that recline and heat up. Each seat has its own personal little table that you can swing in front of you if you want the table closer to you. Ticket pricing varies depending on day, time, and when you purchase it. Tickets can get very pricey... $24

Even though we were in the second row (last minute Endgame tickets) the view was fine and it didnt feel as close as the front rows usually do. The theatre was very clean and the chairs were amazingly comfortable and reclined. It almost felt like watching from the comfort of your own home (if you had an enormous screen)!

First time to this theatre and I will be back many times more!The entire place was nice and totally clean. Even the bathroom was sparkling clean.You get to choose your seat for a movie which is great too! The seats were lie back and comfortable. You are able to order alcohol and bring it into the theatre which is awesome!I’ll be back soon!

Review №37

Its ok. Straightforward movie theater on the second floor. The seats are the best part... Heated...I think...I didnt feel the difference but the option is there as well as reclining. The sound is a notch better than your average experience in the upper class theater but not IMAX reading and Natick good even they advertise it to be leading technology. The overall building is small with not much life in the hallways and etc.If you like crazy popcorn flavors like bacon and cheese on top then this place might be heaven for you.

Great deals on Tuesdays. $6 for most movie showings.Advise looking for seats 5-7 days in advance if youre going to a popular movie on a Tuesday and need several seats together.

Review №42

Plush, heated recliners, a pristine bathroom with hand dryers built-in to the tap and no children even during a daytime screening - I loved my first visit. Though there is a full bar and restaurant available, I thought the concessions were a bit uninspired and I hope they offer some more innovative options in the future.

Review №43

The theater is fancy! The seats recline and are heated!! Before the movie started, an usher welcomed us. Tickets are pricey but thats expected for the location and the limited seating. You can pick your seats as well. Concessions have the usual...AND fancy popcorn. Again, pricey but I like that there are different options. A downside is that there are no subway lines nearby... Theres the silver line though. There are plenty of shops and restaurants around to kill time before the movie.

Futuristic experience from start to finish. Everything is automated. Staffed with a skeleton crew of techs for assistance with operating equipment. Beautiful location, delicious food. Heated reclining seats. If your looking for a totally impersonal experience, this is the place for you. I might prefer a little more human interaction.

Review №48

Great theater with some decent food options. The popcorn has a different taste than your average, run-of-the-mill theater, but its definitely not bad. Seats are VERY comfortable with adjustable recliner and HEATING features. First theater Ive ever been in with heated seats, definitely left a nice impression on me. Its not very busy in the early afternoon, we actually got into a completely empty showing of Ready Player One and it was pretty surprising. Overall, a very nice and clean theater.

This is an amazing theater. It is immaculately clean, with nice leather recliner seats that are very well maintained. The price of the tickets were so incredibly affordable I could hardly believe it. The concessions looks great too. If I lived in Boston, this would definitely be my go-to theater.

Any movie theatre with the reclining seats is a winner to me! I can’t wait until winter so I get to utilize the seat heaters! Icon is our spot to go for movies! Haven’t eaten any of their food or snacks but they have some menu items that intrigue me like bacon popcorn!

We got to the theater and there was a fire alarm. We were told they dont know when their system will be back. They offered to refund our money but we decided to stay a little and see.Luckily the movie started but the lighting system was not functioning correctly. Lights werent dimming. So half way through the movie, one of the worker came in and told everyone to get a free ticket on the way out and apologized.I think they handled the situation extremely well. The place is on the small side. Chairs were comfortable and in good condition. I didnt buy any food besides the drink and popcorn but they have many options there.

I really love this theatre - its nice, cozy, and never too crowded. Download their rewards app for a good deal.HOWEVER just be sure to know that anyone under 18 is not allowed to a rated R movie even with an accompanied adult. This is a different policy from other theatres and I could not enter a pre ordered movie with my 17 year old sister because of it and had to take my money elsewhere :(

Review №57

Me and the guy went to go see once upon a time in Hollywood, and my love for Quentin T’s movies made me want to see this in nothing but luxury. I usually go to lux but my cousin sent me a link about this movie theater and I decided to try it. And when I say I’m impressed, I’m impressed! Seats amazing, plus the extra room for people to still get by when reclined, the popcorn was amazing, and the sound and the position of the screen was perfecto! Can’t wait to go back!

Review №59

I hardly ever go to the cinema anymore. Once or twice a year. Too many distractions for me as I like to focus on the movie and not the people around me. As I was in Boston with time to spare, I went here and got really lucky as there werent too many people.It was the best best cinema experience that I have ever had in my life. The BEST. Very comfortable, excellent sound quality, excellent screen, friendly staff, overall simply outstanding experience.

I enjoyed going to the movies with my children we live directly across the street a week or so later my 13 year olds and a couple friends wanted to go see a childrens movie they wouldnt allow them in without an adult. Maybe because they serve alcohol but I found that to be a little odd........

Staff are mostly nice. One thing i thought was weird, that there was a separate station to pick up the food after you ordered it. The theaters are clean with a decent amount of seats. The seats included a table that folded out over your lap, with an easy accessable cupholder. Bathrooms are clean and the sinks have a built in hand dryer. This theater may be hard to find because its on the top floor past a shopping store and a bar. 10 theaters in Total. Great place to bring children!

Came to this theater to watch Creed 2 opening weekend while enjoying a girls trip to Boston. The theater is in a beautiful area downtown surrounded by great restaurants and shops and great scenery. The theater itself is AMAZING. FIRST CLASS in every area. The sound, the seating, food... (though the popcorn was a bit salty) they seemed to have every area covered with excellence in this place. Even the restrooms were clean and outstanding!!! I dont live here, but if you are in the area and looking for a one stop shop experience of excellence in entertainment, shopping and dining, this is it!!!!

I was surprised by this movie theater. Being a lifelong Bostonian this specific area has changed so much. This theater has all of the high end amenities you could think of. There is a restaurant and bar, and you can order drinks from concessions. They have gourmet popcorn and the standard food you would expect from concessions. If you are into spending a little bit when attending the movies, youll love this theater.

We paid for our tickets 2 hours prior to our 9 pm show, and we waited there for 2 hours. However rught before the show, the manager came up to us and told us to leave since one member of our party was 15. We were not told of any curfew prior to booking the tickets. The crew needs more training

Review №86

This is my second favorite theater in the Boston area. Unfortunately, the prices are high, too, on tickets and food. The location is great, though, with other entertainment and food right downstairs.Most showings are for adults only, and they dont generally get the kid movies. However, you can grab drinks and take them in. Each seat has a tray-table at it for snacks and drinks.The screens are good, the rooms are generally small and cozy. The audio is fine.All the seats both recline and have foot tests that raise up. Additionally, each seat has a heater. Yes, you can get really cozy. I have two complaints about the seats: the button lights are distracting and the seats are fairly narrow for sitting. The rows have good spacing, though you still may have to lower the foot rest if someone goes by.Easy access from the silver line or walking across the bridge from other T stops is a plus.Is it worth the extra money? Maybe. Its definitely a nice, clean, modern, new theater, though.

I loved it.I was able to see Avengers on opening weekend while still waiting to buy tickets the night before.

Very nice theater! Loved the seats and although it was over $20 a ticket I felt the comfort was worth it. The only thing I didnt like was how the concessions was ran and how little they offered. I know theaters make most of their money off of the concessions so I was really shocked when they only had 4 candy options. I would definitely still go back though
