Reviews
Was recommended by one of our SC crew members as the theater had shown his film there. Located in an area that resembles a WWII rehabilitated bombed out target. The theater has a DIY look about it and that is entrepreneurship at its best. Good screen and audio. The most comfortable seats, sofas, are too close to the screen. The regular seats are fine. Very friendly staff. The ticket price is higher than chain theaters, but it’s supporting a small business showing hard to find movies and also is community involved.
Art house sized theater with a good quality projector and not terrible speakers, however, if it's heavily raining it may be a little harder to hear until it lets up. Concessions are pricey so plan accordingly beforehand. Friendly staff.
We were visiting Asheville from out of town for Thanksgiving and we were so pleased to find this quirky and fun movie theater in the awesome river arts district! They have three screens. The theater we were in was cozy and had comfy seats. They had a great concessions stand featuring the standard popcorn and candy as well as other unique treats, many locally produced. We will definitely be back to visit this unique local gem next time we’re in town.
Love this funky movie house, with two small theaters, and many great independent and foreign films and special events. Great staff. Abundant food and drink options from local producers.
Love, love, love this place!!! It’s our go to for movies and great snacks. The people who work there are always friendly, welcoming and warm. We love the wide range of films they offer and many new releases. Def check them out next time your hanging out in the River Arts District.
Intimate boutique moviehouse, with a beautiful selection of films: artfully curated and they support Asheville FM (103.3)!
Do yourself a favor and check out some of these beautifully curated movies
Going to the Grail moviehouse feels like how cinema should be. Seeing art-house movies in an intimate setting.
So much to love!
You can purchase wine and beer along with the usual assortment of snacks. Local wine and beer is also on offer.
Comfortable couch-like seating, reminiscent of a well appointed home theater.
The owners and staff are super friendly. The movie selection is wonderful! We have been attending the Academy Award nominated best animated shorts for years there. It was a family tradition, and I begin watching them in San Francisco in my 20s. We have also seen wonderful movies, that you absolutely would not find anywhere else (documentaries on the cats of Istanbul, a beautiful selection of films from overseas and, of course, a couple cult-classic favorite, such as Harold and Maude). I know the selection will always be wisely curated, and that there will be something on tap of the Grail that is incredibly worthwhile. Bonus is that they support AshevilleFM 103.3.
The Grail is a super hip laid back movie theater located in the River Arts District. Local vendors sell snacks there. Upcoming events include an Oscars watch party on March 12th. A really cool feature from Korea called Return to Seoul it’s been called “riveting and unpredictable”. Also Fringe fest shorts on March 20th. And on April 17th AsheFemme Films all local short films by women. Support Independence!
Saw the short film series it was phenomenal. Terrific staff. Lots of parking. Comfy couches.
Amazing theater! Cozy and comfortable with a lot of history on the walls! Support this place!
