"Suns serves up popcorn and creative cocktails to go along with movies in its “living-room” style theater, with a small, whacky indoor bar that’s constantly projecting films on the wall and an outdoor porch area. Cocktails are themed after movies, such as “The Life of Brine” that includes Beefeater gin, a potato-based Nordic spirit, dry vermouth, and pickle brine. There’s also a selection of beers, wines, and a surprisingly in-depth list of amaro." - Emily Venezky

"I'm hoping Suns Cinema, which temporarily closed, reopens in 2021." - Gabe Hiatt
"Suns has a small bar in the back of the theater that’s open to walk-ins before and after ticketed movie showings." - Abbe Baker
A two-story micro-cinema and bar in Mount Pleasant screening cult classics, world cinema, and themed series. Lauded by Washingtonian and profiled by the Washington Post for its living-room vibe and film-savvy cocktails, it’s the cinephile hangout locals actually use.
