The venue is ideal for live music - intimate with great acoustics and good visual accessibility to the performer from any seat. The staff is friendly, and their ticketing has improved from when the venue first opened. The line-up is varied and appealing, the movies offered are both offbeat and popular as are their special projects. The biggest downside of the place is the food - absolutely pathetic! Oriented as a movie theater snack menu with additional upscale light food offerings, the availability of items is sporadic. I have never been there without having to make a 2nd or 3rd selection because they have "run out" of items. And more importantly, the quality of the food preparation is abysmal! They manage to ruin a plain hot dog more than any other place in the Western Hemisphere!
Go for the show, skip the food!

we were comfortable qnd found the atmosphere conducive to enjoying a good show, which it was. I was a little disappointed that my bottle of Hopewell water was bottled else where, when in fact HOPEWELL has great water.

The New Year's Eve event had excellent music, but the dance floor was small and the lack of byob option should have been clearly advertised. When I asked to speak to a manager, I was never answered. The dance was fun, but the event was not well promoted.
