Fairfield Cinemas at Bullard Square
What people are saying
Nice theater. Non luxury recliner seats, but the seats are comfortable, good posture. Clean, no smell or stickiness. Good staff, friendly service. Good prices, good number of different movies showing. Easy parking, easy in and out
The seats are not very comfortable but the place itself is very nice. Love the neon lights
Apparently they close the concession stand before 8 pm, even while movies are still playing, and they make no mention of this when you are purchasing your tickets. Got tickets around 7:45, go get settled in theater, come out to get popcorn and drinks about 7:55 and the 'lady' behind the concession counter is almost screaming at me "we closed, we closed". "I can't get a drink?" (there are 2 workers still behind the counter and other customers there). "No, we closed!" She was way too excited to let me know that I could not get a drink to get me through a 2 1/2 hour movie. Made the experience miserable. I have lived in this area my entire life; this theater used to be nice. No longer the case. Horrible service. My family or I will never patronize this theater again.
The movie was good, price wasn't too bad, and the place looked pretty cool inside. Angie at the concession stand could learn some customer service skills. I stood there for a good 5 minutes and she didn't acknowledge me in any way. Then when she did there was no greeting, no smile, no friendliness.
You can tell it’s an older theatre. It’s has a retro theme inside. Big neon lights and neon designs brighten the lobby. The carpet is super 60s looking too. The popcorn is fresh. Which is nice. The staff seems nice too. I arrived super early for a movie and they were friendly about it. The actual screen rooms are decent. You’ll be surprised when you walk in to find the gallery is not raised. It’s under the screen. Haven’t seen that in a while. The seats are super firm. Not much leg room. No bending chair backs. And the width of them are snug. Kind of a tight fit from the front and on the sides. I am guessing because this theatre is old the seating is outdated? My movie was in 3D and the screen and audio were good. Not great. But good. Would give the movie experience a 7.5/10. Overall the theatre did the job. It’s not luxurious. But it’s a good place for a matinee or daytime movie.
