The Last Picture House

Nice little theater. It has two theaters indoors and one on the roof during nice weather. Beautiful waiting area and a full bar. The theater we sat in had a lower seating area and a balcony seating area. I would definitely recommend giving it a try.

"Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while you might miss it". When my beautiful wife and I were traveling into the quad cities she spotted in the distance a rooftop bar and that’s all I needed to hear. It was an unusually warm spring day and a rooftop bar sounded perfect. Parking was easy and as we explored the area we were astonished by how much there was to do! Clothing stores record shops, restaurants and all sorts of different things. But when we arrived we were happily surprised it’s a movie theater!! 😮 The Last Picture House! We had no idea! So unfortunately we didn’t see a movie, we already made our plans to enjoy the outside. So we got delicious drinks and headed upstairs. The rooftop was fantastic! Tables and booths perfect for conversation as well as an astroturf area with a golf game projected on the wall! The view was great! You get to see the river as well as the hustle and bustle of the city; very picturesque. I highly recommend popping in! The posters were cool, the menus were on dvd cases and the drinks were on point. We unfortunately didn’t get to enjoy the movie and we can’t go back today but perhaps soon because you know what they say "After all, tomorrow is another day".

28 years Later the Bone Temple , first showing 7pm , I was very pleased with my Cinema experience. I was able to purchase tickets in advance the night before, which is an added plus because I’m always running late everywhere I go. This allowed me to focus on the snacks I needed, popcorn, soda, candy, etc. wait, I also ordered Pepperoni pizza. This movie was a magical experience for the most hard-core of the hard-core. I say that because it’s been a while since I’ve seen a movie that I can honestly say it was so enjoyable to experience it with others,, I couldn’t believe they brought the pepperoni pizza right out to me. Wait a minute my wife went and brought it out to me, I believe at the Last Picture House I might be able to enjoy a movie all by myself like I used to in the good old days. I remember seeing kung fu movies in Chinatown in San Francisco. I saw taxi driver in the Castro. The last picture house brought back some nostalgia and gave me that good movie vibe. I will return again…. The CONDOR will return.

What a fantastic theater. Beautiful lounge with a fun cocktail list. Whitey's malts in the freezer. Reasonably priced, reserved seats, no stress. And most importantly, a quality Atmos surround setup. You can tell when a place is built out of passion, and in today's everything-is-a-chain, maximize-profits, private-equity-flipping landscape, it is such a treat to find a quality establishment that was done out of love for movie nerds by movie nerds. QC is lucky to have this place.

Wanted to love this place. Given my love for Cinema and the fact that I rented a loft downtown just because of it, so when I have friends and family, clients in town its within walking distance and is easy accessible entertainment. There was literally 9 people in the building. 3 people waiting customers. I arrived 20 minutes before my show and 4 people in line. I was 2nd for over 20 minutes, while they talked and had social hour ( not 1 I'll be with you in a minute from anyone). The line next 2 me. The host had help that came in along side me, and 4 more of their family members trickled in over 20 minutes and walked straight in and ordered. I went from wanting to order alot to just a soda, because my movie had started. Clearly its a go to and eat your snacks before you watch the movie type of atmosphere. Their was about 20 people In the movie. I looked around and only about 5 people we're snacking on something. Bummed to say the least and I was extremely geeked for this cinematic experience. Given the setup of the building. I absolutely will not be entertaining anyone here with my money.

Delightful little theater with only 2 screens inside and one outside. Completely impressed by the price compared. I expected to pay more seeing as it is more of a boutique theater but we didn't. Instead we paid slightly less than the mainstream theater. The seating was comfortable and everything was extremely clean. The staff was kind and courtesy. The sound in the movie was perfect, just like advertised. We love the experience.

We had a group of family and friends to attend wicked on Tuesday December 2nd! We were all so very excited! The movie theater was clean and service was spot on! Here goes my complaint, It was a bit cold that evening, but the theater was 10 degrees colder than outside. It was so TOTALLY uncomfortable, which really ruined our fun adventure for the evening, we were all looking forward to! My guests like it colder, however they were completely frozen by the end of the movie, crouched in their winter coats! If this is the case in the future, ill be attending a local movie theater with heat! This has no or not EVER going to be a place to come too in the winter! Summer fun is great there, excited for 2026, rooftop movies

Love the atmosphere of this theater! It is a great place to hangout even when not seeing a movie. Only thing I’d do next time is pick a different seat on the balcony. We sat in the second row and the people’s heads in front of us were blocking parts of the screen.

This place is seriously one of the coolest things to come to the Quad Cities, and should be a HUGE source of hometown pride for all who live there... I grew up in Bettendorf and I am so ecstatic to see the entire QC becoming such a vibrant arts and culture hub! Places like The Last Picture House highlight this community's growth! Not only is this a movie theatre, it is a love letter to the art of film and the people who love to watch them. With a beautiful cocktail bar, concessions stand with all the staples, and two full-sized screens, there's nothing more needed for a fantastic night. I can't wait to come back!

What a great idea. A lounge area with adult drinks and a movie theatre. This is a cool theatre. A really good setting with old movie posters and decor. The popcorn is fresh and delicious. They have a good selection of candy, slushies , sodas and popcorn seasoning. Very friendly service also. The theatre is clean and has a beautiful view of the Mississippi River and bridge.

What a fun place. And $6.00 show tickets on Tuesday, what a deal. Our first time attending a show here. Walked in and the place and the employees were very welcoming. Love the decor and the vibe here. I ordered the curtain call cocktail, it was very good, not too sweet and served in a nice cocktail glass. We also got a large popcorn (could of used a little more butter) and fountain drink. We will definitely come back and for a cocktail to just sit and relax and enjoy it. Headed to the movie, signage wasn't very large or clear where we were to head to. Employees kindly directed us up the stairs. We picked seats up stairs in the balcony for room #1. Comfy seats even cup holders to fit my cocktail and best spot to watch the movie. The whole experience was great and a lot of fun. We will make this a frequent spot to visit.

Intimate vibe but plenty of personal space! There is a bar and they let the alcoholic drinks while you watch the movie. We brought a big group to see Wicked. And it seemed like every one else did too!

Excellent place to enjoy a movie experience! The atmosphere is boutique, theater is rather comfortable, and the sound is amazing! We saw Twisters and felt like we were inside the action. The food and staffing are top notch! Can't wait to go there again.

The Last Picture House is a phenomenal movie going experience. Being able to hangout in the bar area, that contains plenty of amazing drinking options, is a great place for before and after seeing a movie. Their popcorn is the best popcorn I've ever had at a theater. Listening to the Dolby Atmos surround sound system pits you inside the movie, especially any type of thriller or action (A Quiet Place: Day One was fantastic to listen to). Haven't been to a rooftop movie, but plan on it.
