I attended an event here today and was very impressed with this space. The gallery was beautiful, the fireplace was inviting, the food being catered in-house was beautifully displayed, generous and delicious...especially the chocolate brownies.
There was a fruit, dessert and cheese and cracker platter, all artfully placed and plentiful in variety and quantity. I highly recommend this place for organizing group events or screenings. I would definitely come back. -

Was here for a company "all hands" a few weeks ago....the place is small - very cozy.
We were the only ones there, and our company is not big by any means and it was packed. The screening room is very cool - I'd love to go for an actual movie and not for a company presentation.
We had an anti-pasta as a munchie meal - it was ok....nothing amazing or to write home about. The bar is tiny and the building is cool.
As for the bathroom - not impressed. They are in the basement and smell like mould. I almost puked from the smell.
For a hipster location - I wasn't impressed, but then again - I'm not a hipster. -

At first glance, I thought this joint was just an upscale drinking hole, but passed by to discover it's also a gallery and houses a screening room in the back. FREE (!!!) Saturday indie and arthouse movies? Great photography on the walls? Count me in.
Recently, I snuck in last minute on a rainy day, and there were only nine other people in attendance, 50% of whom were there solo. As for the screening room size -- sure, it only seats 50 people, but luckily, most films are repeated for three weeks. There are ways to see your film if you get blocked out the first week.
But beware: it looks super, super snobby, and well... it kind of is. Atom Egoyan and his gang back this venture, so it attracts a lot of lip-wagging industry types in heels and black turtlenecks. Take it with a grain of salt, and If the movie is dull, at least you can look forward to the rambling pretentious commentary after it's done. It's like your own personal DVD, IRL!Listed in: Free and cheap hangouts in…, Celluloid love
