The Leavitt Theatre

Went to see The Cameraman 1928 starring Buster Keaton as part of the silent movie series with live piano. 1925 theater surely showed it almost 100 years ago which I find very cool. Popcorn was excellent as well.

This is a legitimate cocktail bar. Their house drinks look amazing, but feel free to order off the menu as well. The Boulevardier I ordered was incredible with the homemade Campari and Sweet Vermouth! The waitress even asked if I wanted rye or bourbon. ( try the bourbon) This place is perfect for a nightcap!

My wife and I were excited to go to the Leavitt and have a delicious meal. They did not disappoint! Food was fantastic! Well seasoned and balanced. The cocktails were excellent as well. We were able to sit out front and enjoy the world going by. I highly recommend!

Nice old, well maintained theatre. Very good bar with great service. Didnt eat but plenty of people were. Saw one of their regular comedy nights but being off season there were less than 30 people there. The comedians deserved better. Would happily visit again.

Absolutely my favorite spot in Ogunquit, fantastic food menu, cocktails are amazing, all in a beautiful, historic venue with a great events schedule all summer long, including movies, music, comedy shows and a ton of other unique events!

What a great hip bar/cafe. I stopped in for an espresso martini which was fabulous. I ordered the braised short ribs with the fennel broth this was great too. Kudos to all, a great little oasis away from some of the tourism traps in town:)

OMG, the Grilled cheese is to die for!! So was the HotDog fried in duck fat until they stopped selling it recently. That new Ciabatta sandwich was good!!! The cold asparagus salad was DELICIOUS!!! Didn't like the bitter tasting Caesar Salad but the silent movies and staff were great. Such a good time!!!!

Enjoyed the entertaining show! Staff was friendly and helpful. The drinks had a different twist and were Divine. The first time I have been there and was not disappointed. Look forward to trying more food and beverage options the next time I go.

Best cocktails in all of Ogunquit! Funky vibe and friendly atmosphere. Didn't eat other then snacked on the truffle popcorn which was different but tasty better if it was hot. Will revisit next time I'm back in town!

Possibly one of the coolest spaces and concepts I have ever been to and it's tucked away in a small Maine town! Saw live jazz in the theater during a rainy Sunday evening with amazing cocktails and an ambience that is killer! Service was great as well, our server Marlow was the man

Fun and entertaining left me on the edge on my seat for the whole Harry Potter movie and very great workers

I'll always remember this as the place we watched, with a full house, the Celtics win their 18th championship. What a great night with fun people.

Came to the bar that is attached to the theater for pre-dinner drinks. Service was very good, choice of mixed drinks, especially specialty cocktails, is very good, wine choices are a bit limited, seating is indoors and outdoors, with heaters available in the cooler weather. Loved the wall chock filled with bottles, glasses, mugs, mirrors, the fresh basil & fresh mint in vases, waiting to be used in drinks. Snag a seat early on if you are here for a show, or if it is during the late dinner hour.

We visited last month for a drag show and a few nights later the movie "Jaws" The theater has so much history in it. Neither time did we eat. We had a drink at the drag show. Been here many times in the past years. It is a favorite place to visit. Highly recommend visiting at least once when you are in Ogunquit. A true piece of history!

I finally tried this restaurant and have been back several times this summer already. Everything I've had here is special and delicious. Arguably the best chef in ogunquit. The smash burger is perfection. I'm usually a ketchup person but this burger needs nothing. I will be back again and again.

Kitschy ambiance and delicious drinks! What can you say about a vintage movie theater that pairs free movies with a fantastic smash burger and martini, I strongly recommend!

A group of us just spent four days at this theatre for an event, and they were absolutely wonderful. The food, the cocktails, the theater itself, we had a HUGE group for this event, and everyone was so kind and accommodating. There is typical theater seating, and also box-type seating, and couches in the back so that anyone of any size/ability has a comfortable place to enjoy the shows. We especially loved the bar service right to our seats, and the food was absolutely delicious. Actually, the gluten-free bun they use with their super tasty burger is the best I've ever had. What a gem! I've been to Ogunquit a dozen times and didn't even know about this place, and now I'll make sure to come back for a show!

Not only is this theater historical and quite magical but the work that the owners have put into it over the years is beautiful. The weekly lineups that they have chosen for this venue are nothing short of incredible, & so much fun! The bar inside the theater is aesthetically picture perfect! The bar and restaurant downstairs is equally beautiful and the food was delicious. We ordered the skirt steak with chimichurri and it was seasoned and cooked perfectly and the accoutrements were paired well. I highly recommend their entire menu, especially the steak! The drink menu is clever and the drinks were top notch. I had the espresso martini which came beautifully garnished with homemade Baileys whipped cream. My husband had the Lovett margarita and he said it was very good as well. The staff was polite, professional, fast, and fun! We had a great evening and cannot wait to go back- it should be a must stop for anyone visiting ogunquit!

Loved this little movie theater. Free movie, good food, really nice bar area as well. We're definitely going back!

We came to catch an early comedy show and it was delightful. The staff was attentive and friendly. We purchased a private table for $80 and were a bit disappointed when the waitress told folks who arrived after us that they could choose any table that didn't have a "reserved" sign on it. So they basically got the same table we had for 60$ less. However! The truffle popcorn and grilled cheese made my forget about being disgruntled:) The comedians were very funny. Fun night all in all.

Love the owner! The food is creative and amazing! We love the smash burger and all of h Ty e creative appetizers they make! Live the drinks too

We would have loved to go to a movie here, but this is COVID summer so we had to settle for Ogunquit's latest last call and open kitchen. We sat outside around 11pm and had a really good spaghetti carbonara and mapo tofu (spicy as hell and delicious; not for vegetarians though as it has minced pork) along with a Mexican style corn on the cob for an appetizer. Portions aren't massive and prices were fair. The Aperol spritz wasn't our favorite, but the sour style beer was quite good. Service was friendly and hipstery, the vibe at the bar area lively, and the owners and staff thoughtfully progressive, with signage about Black Lives Matter. This made us more interested in supporting the business and we were glad that we did.

Amazing atmosphere, friendly staff, awesome locals and the food is unbelievable. Whether you order the classic smashed burger, chilled jonah crab, street corn or incredible lobster roll, you will not be disappointed. In an area inundated with pre-made sysco food (chowder in a bag) this place is a breathe of fresh air. Chef Remes is a man on a mission. If you think you have enjoyed a good lobster roll, you are mistaken. I highly recommend giving his a try.

We went to this restaurant on 9/6/2020 (around 7:30-8pm) for dinner. We stood in front of the reception desk for 30 mins and the female receptionist ignored us the whole time. We were standing with two toddlers, 2& 3 years old, but she didn't even bother to tell us that we needed to look for a table first. After 30 mins standing wait, we decided to ask her how much longer the wait is, then she said "first come first serve, so you need to look for your own table." Hello!? Didn't you see us standing right in front of you the whole time? Wouldn't it be a good idea to tell us earlier that we need to find our own table?

We ordered an Old Fashion and a Premiere. They were delicious! The bartender used his own walnut infused whiskey and house made vermouth for the Old Fashion. He definitely takes mixing drinks seriously! The server was also very nice and quite helpful.

This is for the restaurant/bar. The theatre is really cool but the food in the bar restaurant was really bad. The skirt steak was like eating a heart. It was slimy and tough and served in a soup bowl which was just awkward.. The hamburger had so much salt in it that it was inedible. The caeser salad was soggy. Worst meal we had in a long time.

Loved this theatre and bar!!!! Saw a concert and grabbed a drink at the bar. A hoppin' spot with great entertainment.

You don't find a lot of family-run businesses that are decades (or in this case, a century!) old and are still able to adapt with the times -- and for the better. Leavitt is one of those rare exceptions. Growing up in Ogunquit, I have so many good memories watching movies in the old theater and now I can sit in that same theater and watch live music with a drink in my hand on a Friday night. The Leavitt recently added a bar (Leavitt Lounge) in the back, which is a great addition in my opinion. It opens up after their nightly movie has ended. Leavitt Lounge feels like a speakeasy. The drinks are all handcrafted and delicious and there's usually a live band playing music. It's a fun local hangout, but also accessible to out-of-towners just because of the sheer novelty of it all, for nothing else. I mean, you're having a drink in a historic, 100-year-old theater, so that's pretty cool. The Leavitt has been an Ogunquit staple for decades and I hope it continues to be!

Went to the Leavitt Theatre last night and WOW-this old school elevated Hollywood vibe theatre is a destination in itself. From iconic prohibition style cocktails~ mixed with a new era vintage vibe, classy live jazz , films rolling in the background and romantic outside patio accommodations this place has you completely enamored and wanting more! Not to mention they are the only place in town with a late night food menu that blows other restaurants out of the water! Got the grilled cheese which was made on a rustic thick cut grilled bread with a blend of different cheeses and a beautifully dressed wedge salad. Hats off to the owner for creating a truly unique space that is ALL it's own. We will be back again and again !!!!

Go to a movie at the Leavitt. Any movie. What are you waiting for?! These classic theaters are true gems that won't be around forever, if even for a few more decades. Get a hot popcorn, relax, enjoy.

The Leavitt Theatre is Ogunquit's oldest continually running business with good reason. A quaint and friendly historic single screen theatre, they are open seasonally and show a variety of movies each week. Family owned and operated, real butter on the popcorn- what's not to love! http://retroroadmap.com/2010/07/29/the-leavitt-theatre-ogunquit-me-youll-love-it/

The speakeasy style bar, new this year, adds to an already fabulous atmosphere found at The Leavitt. Go late night for delicious craft cocktails, or bring family for a scrumptious, creative dinner you won't soon forget. Live music, comedy shows, and movies provide the entertainment! A local spot that's constantly improving. My order - House Focaccia Burrata, Smash Burger, and the Premier gin drink.

Abe was GREAT! Haunted house in October, movies on the screen, A bar upstairs w/snacks and some food items! So worth the trip and visit. It is seasonal so don't miss out!

Great old fashioned movie theater with more than a show an popcorn. Dinner, cocktails, late night live band and other special events.

Wow is all that I can say! Between the food, drinks and overall vibe that the restaurant gave it was quite an experience. HIGHLY recommend!!!

Best burger in Ogunquit and very talented mixologist behind the bar.

Great place all around. Nostalgic theater with great popcorn for catching a flick and at night the place turns into a sort of speak-easy. It has signature cocktails, pulled pork nachos and live music. What more would you want!

Cool funky vibe with live bands and food too. I will come back to see a movie at some point too. Love these old theatres. They are a dying breed. Check it out.

Such a great movie theatre, Ogunquit is lucky to have it. Historic, friendly, good variety in the movies they book. Remind your self what the silver screen was all about ...

One of the oldest theaters you can find anywhere around here. It has a cool old-fashioned aesthetic and a brand new lounge. They serve beer, cocktails, wine, and even food. You could come in for dinner before the movie or even eat during it. Not only that, but the food is great! Not to mention the fact that the lounge stays open until 1 in the morning with classics being played on the big screen. You also never have to worry about not getting a seat because they've got well over 500. From historic silent films to new blockbusters and even live shows, they have it all. That's only some of the stuff, you can find out more on their website or even by walking down and talking to the owner or employees. They're excellent at what they do and very friendly.

My husband and I were delighted with our evening at the Leavitt: drinks, apps, and a delightful silent movie with expert organ accompaniment. If you'd like a truly unique movie experience, go to the Leavitt.

It's a fun old movie house with two levels of seating and a decent concession stand. Kudos on using real butter for the popcorn, folks!
