Truly a cool looking old theater and the prices are cheap compared to the movie theater. I am definitely going to go again.

Loved the labyrinth celebration masquerade! I brought my boyfriend and it was so much fun! Cant wait to see what other surprises are ahead!

Boblo Island & the two boats,, Columbia & St. Claire documentary. Excellent first showing of the film, along with inside info, and q&a after the movie.

Excellent event at the beautiful theater!! They make every movie an event with a 50/50 raffle in intermission. Love! ❤

Great as always. Incredible movie experience with such warm and welcoming staff of volunteers!

You have to experience an old movie at this historic theater! Its a one of a kind place that must be experienced

What a beautiful theater! Right now they are open with limited seating and this is one of those places that DESERVES support. Everyone working is a volunteer! Wonderful place, INCREDIBLE choice of movies for Three Stooges Festival, and overall a great place for a date or with family.

One of the most magical places in Detroit! If you see something playing stop in and see an incredible movie palace with 1600 seats and a bunch of friendly older folks volunteering at the concessions stand.

Very cool theater. Plenty of leg room. Only knock i have is, they need to update the armrests to include a cup holder.

Great place to see an old movie. My kids love sitting in the balconyNormally the organ is played before movies.Best movie concessions.

Wonderful theater run by great people. I have seen everything from cult classics to theatre organ performances to local dance troupes here. This is a one of a kind Detroit gem!

Its a Great Place to MeetWith Your Friends! Its Beautiful Inside, Only $5.00 to Get In, Snacks Are Cheap,Its so Much Fun, With Guest That Speak About Their RollIn That Movie, I Got a T Shirt While Leaving! MOVIE- Items You Can Buy also!! Ive Missed it There Since the Covid Started! Its Decorated for Christmas, With a Real Big Tree, Santa Was There too!!!Its Well Worth the 💰 Money !

As an older theater the Redford is very reminiscent of many of the old Detroit style theaters. I was able to enjoy watching a cult classic here, Young Frankenstein, and it felt like a very comfortable, family environment. The theater itself does feel a bit older but it feels more like a family get-together then a business. Many the people running the concessions were older volunteers with family helping to run the place. I would suggest enjoying a night out here.

Its a great old theater. The event we attended was a lot of fun and the people who run it are wonderful 😊

Beautiful historic theater, showing classic film as well as digital and live theater the staff volunteers were friendly and welcoming as well.

Such an absolutely Stunning and Magical place! Ive been visiting Redford Theater since 2013, and I couldnt be happier with it! The theater its self is Gorgeous and the staff are just as beautiful. Everyone here is so very kind and wonderful. The showings are always great choices and so nostalgic. The concession is very affordable, although Id love if they had a few Vegan options. The pricing is very reasonable, and well worth it. I would definitely say bring a sweater if you get chilly easy, it can get a tad cold sometimes. Overall if youre looking for an affordable, exciting, and different experience... Than this is the place to go!! ((Go early to not miss anything.)) Have Fun, make Memories, and Enjoy. 10/10 Would Recommend.

What an awesome way to spend a Lil time, with a classic movie in a classic theatre. And come early for the live organ. Complete with intermission and everything its far beyond just watching a movie!

The theatre is beautiful! I saw Rosemarys Baby and it was a thrill to watch a classic on the big screen. I love the very affordable ticket prices! Only downside was the very uncomfortable seats. Otherwise, two thumbs up!!

Always a great place to see a classic movie...their special events are well-organizedband fun. This was THE GHOUL tribute and it was such a good time! Only issue is their Popcorn 🍿 is not too good and usually they dont have any air circulation but it was on during THE GHOUL tribute. Awesome place!

Beautiful historic theater.Parking lot is fenced and was well guarded.

So beautiful. Friendly people. What a great night out.

A chance to relive the past or experience it for the first time through old movies (some from the 1980s)! The Redford Theatre is a beautifully refurbished location in a little neighborhood with a few great places to check out: the Motor City Java & Tea House a few doors down, the Sweet Potato Sensations Bakery & Cafe across the street and the Old Redford Kitchen & Cafe on a nearby corner.

This place is awesome. Cant wait to see movies here .

Best place for anyone hoping to catch a classic movie in a nostalgic atmosphere. Run and attended by true film lovers and the snacks are very inexpensive! I came in February for Casablanca and in August for 2001: A Space Odyssey. Both fantastic experiences!

Awesome place to see a movie! The organ player is worth the price of admission!

It was wonderful to be at the Redford Theater tonight! 😊

Absolutely beautiful theater

Went to the Redford with the wife to see the 1927 silent film Chicago. The theatre is beautiful! The guest organist Ben Model was an absolute treat. I think we spent more time watching him play the Barton pipe organ than the film!Ticket prices and concessions are very reasonable, especially compared to going to a big multiplex. The parking lot security staff are friendly and vigilant. It is very refreshing that the people who work the theatre are so passionate about the place.

Popcorn wasnt fresh and pop is served without ice, uncomfortable cramped chairs, i wouldnt have minded all those inconveniences if the audience wasnt so obnoxious with their ill timed incessant laughing during Young Frankenstein, left before intermission probably wont return again ):

Quaint, historic theatre that is a 501c organization run completely by volunteers. Great prices, plays the old and great movies along with some shadowcast movie plays. Tickets for movies are $5, popcorn is $3, pop is $2, candy is $1-$2 for regular or $3 for sugar free. Parking is onsite and free. They have the original organ and a gentleman plays the national anthem as well as some other songs before the show starts. **NOTE: concessions are cash only!**

🏆 Elegant theater showing classic 🎟️ $5 movies with 🍿 $2 concessions and a friendly volunteer crew! 🎹 Live piano and organ performances before, and during intermission. 👨‍👩‍👦‍👦 Bring the family and friends! 💖 Lots love here! 📽️ Tour the projector room!

A beautifully restored and maintained architectural gem! Secured parking, and a wonderful and pleasant volunteer staff!

You owe it to yourself to see your favorite movies when they play here.

Beautiful place. Love it.

What a spectacular venue!Enjoyed The documentary about Detroit by Michael Bolton and was thrilled to hear him & Mitch Albom speak of their love for Detroit.And the organ! Wow!

Seats were uncomfortable especially in the balcony but I enjoyed the movie and the theater is very beautiful. I would say go see a movie here but be prepared for some back pain and butt pain especially if your on the heavier side.

Phenomenal theater experience🎫

My childhood theater, its wonderful

Comfy seats and an amazing aesthetic.

AMAZING experience! Cheap concession prices that go to helping further the theatre ! AWESOME organ playing before and during the intermission of the show clean bathrooms fast lines! Merchamdise was available for purchase from the show we viewed as well! Highly recommended!

So glad theyve opened again and are showing some of the wonderful classics. Its not quite on the same level as Its a Wonderful Life but we just saw Young Frankenstein last week! What fun!

There is nothing like seeing classic movies on the big screen again! We absolutely love it here! Prices are terrific!

My fist time at The Redford Theater was a pleasant one. My fiancee wanted to sit in his geandfathers chair and watch three stooges. The manager was really helpful in locating the chair number. We got to sit in his chair. The popcorn is pre popped and they add real butter when you ask for butter. I think it made it a bit soggy, but other people seemed to really love it. It all depends on who you are. The overall experience was a good one.

I must say such classic elegance that has been restored and continues. I hadnt been inside this theatre since I was 15 years old. The nostalgia really set in. I there for a first time Community Meeting.

A historic and magnificent place to see your classic films and stage plays with your family & friends alike. Great atmosphere and outstanding music from the Barton Theatre Pipe Organ. Excellent volunteer staff overall.Highly recommended to all for the annual Three Stooges Festival, Star Warsfilms, Godzilla films, and Noir films.

Step back in time. 1929 state of the art. Beautifully maintained. Clean and fun

What a unique experience! A local treasure for sure!

Beautiful theater, seats are smaller so be prepared to get to know your seat neighbors a bit more than you might want to, but a lovely venue for viewing.

What an amazing place. Beautiful inside. They really do a great job restoring and taking care of this place

The Redford Theater is a great place to catch a classic movie. This year, weve seen My Fair Lady (1964) and Jurassic Park (1993). The theater was built in 1928 and has a beautiful interior - not your typical movie house! Tickets are typically $5 and they have refreshments for a few dollars a piece.

Returned to Old Redford area for the street fair and entertainment. This group of performers were great.

Fun area!

My favorite place to see a movie. If youve never been to the Redford theater they show a lot of the classics. Around Halloween nail play a series of horror movies or science fiction thrillers. Around the Christmas holiday they play holiday classics. Many things make the Redford theater wonderful. But something that really sets them apart is their wonderful organ. They play the pipe organ a half an hour before the movie starts and they play it again during a halftime intermission. Tickets are usually only $5 and concessions are very reasonable. They also have real butter for the popcorn. Movies are only on the weekends. I give it my highest recommendation. Look up more info at their website and plan a fun trip to the theater.

I love this theatre. Everything about it from the organ music, to the old school intermission and the beauty of the theatre is just wonderful.

This place is AMAZING! If you can afford it; please support their restoration!

It is a lot of fun!! Great atmosphere!!

Awesome theater! The inside is like stepping back in time. The organ player was phenomenal. Concessions were very good as well and very low prices for a theater. Everyone working there provided excellent customer service. I will echo what others have said and say that the seats are not the most comfortable, but that was the only negative I can think of. All in all its a wonderful and unique place to visit for the whole family.

Beautiful theater to catch a movie.

Great place to see classic movies on the big screen. It is maintained by the Motor City Theater Organ Society. They maintain the historic original 3 manual, 10 rank Barton Theatre Pipe Organ and have members play it before the feature presentation and during in the intermissions!

Great place that shows classic movies, with a live organ player. Very ornate and historic theater.

Loved the double feature, the movie, The Five Heartbeats and the documentary, The Making of The Five Heartbeats, narrated by Robert Townsend. Following the latter, Robert was interviewed by Kelley on stage, which was followed.by questions from the audience.

I love this theater. Ive been here to see THE BIRDS (with an appearance by Tippi Hedron), WILLY WONKA (with the actors who played Charlie Bucket and Mike Teevee), and now IT FOLLOWS (with three of the actors from the film). The theater does a great job hosting special events, the regular shows are also fun, the organ is a great touch, and the popcorn is excellent. Its a treasure.

Great community. Organ, MC and even an intermission. Special night.

Saw Jaws on the big screen!!!

Beautifully restored 1928 theater. Shows classic films. Original Barton theater organ played before movie and again during intermission. Excellent concession stand, featuring $2 popcorn with real butter. Most shows are $5. A great all-around experience.

Been going for over 20 years! Great variety in classic movies. Love the occasional stage shows. It’s been fantastical to see the transformation of this theatre to its original glory.

This is a beautiful hidden jewel! Youd expect a theatre like this to be in the suburbs or maybe even downtown but its right in the hood near where I grew up. I remember when I was little I didnt think this place was open/active, and I didnt expect it to be so gorgeous on the inside with the Japanese inspired architecture. They only show old classic films and it doubles as a performance venue!

A awesome place to go see a show! I went there to see Mosaic Youth theater( lift every voice show), a really great show filled with great music and acting. Great customer service! Parking lot securty was great.

This location is always beautiful, no matter what. My girlfriend has never been here, but she was pleasantly surprised at the beauty if the Redford! The service at the concession stand was friendly and quick.

A very inexpensive but rewarding experience. Love the historic atmosphere, theater organ performances before the movies, which are always of excellent quality, and the availability of popcorn and other snack. Safe, free parking- it doesnt disappoint.

Favorite place to watch movies.

The chance to get transported back in time and make it feel like everyone is watching the movie as if its opening night is a magical experience. The organ playing familiar songs is awesome and the ceiling complete with twinkling stars is fantastic. Young and old will enjoy the chance to see this place.

Cheddar cheese was thrown at the performers

Such a great old theatre to watch a Christmas classic in! I highly recommend treating yourself to a movie here. The volunteers do an amazing job of making the night feel special. There is usually an intermission during the viewing with a 50/50 raffel to boot! Bonus stars for fairly priced concessions and having decent leg room for an establishment of its age!

I cant rave about this place enough! The building is gorgeous, the popcorn is delicious and inexpensive, the rotation of movies and shows is always exciting. I always show up early so I can hear the incredibly talented organist play! This is my favorite place to go on a night out by far. :)

Gorgeous old style, small theater. Not in the best part of town but parking is close and security is present. Concession prices are good and they use real butter on their popcorn!

I went there on a first date with a woman I met online. Well oh, it turns out she never bothered to show up!!! But I still enjoyed a fantastic movie that stands the test of time. The 1983 hit The Big Chill. And it was wonderful to see again. The theater itself is a wonderful facility albeit a bit dated. They have a standard selection at their snack bar including candy, popcorn etc etc. Its a little bit tricky for a few people who have walking issues or other such disabilities such as myself. But I managed to do just fine personally and I even explored the upper balconies. The movie was being shown to promote donations for the restoration of the theater itself and I was more than willing to contribute even more than the $5 they were asking. They offer everything from projected films to live theater presentations and operas. Its truly a worthwhile visit if youve never been before. Although a bad taste was left in my mouth regarding my no showing date I have little to complain about regarding the theater itself. The employees were extremely helpful and quite friendly and I do intend to return as I picked up their summer time schedule while I was there. Its a very intimate atmosphere not like todays modern theaters which can be a bit overwhelming at times. And the popcorn was pretty good!!!

Such a beautiful building. The wall art is awesome. And they have an organist pre movie and during intermission. Yes, intermission! We saw Casablanca. Oh, and the popcorn......REAL BUTTER. You have to go.

Best Theater in Michigan hands down.

I love the Redford Theater. Great old movies on the big screen where they belong. We just went to see the 1925 silent movie Phantom of the Opera, accompanied by the Redfords beautiful theater organ. Reasonable prices for movies and snacks. Beautiful old neighborhood theater. Secure parking next door. Oh, be sure to try Sweet Potato Sensations across the street!

Its a great place to go to,they show favorite classic films.

Always a great place to spend an afternoon. Theater is a beautiful snap shot of what used to be the movie experience. Big screen and big surroundings. The butter on the popcorn is grest plus to!

A great place to see classic films. Very nostalgic. Very affordable (ticket, popcorn and pop is like $11). All volunteer staff too. Oh the popcorn is made with real butter!

This classic theatre is amazing. A must visit and just a great place to watch a movie. The story of its restoration is equally interesting and heartwarming.

Beautiful theater and rich in history.

The theater was really cool inside, and snacks were very reasonably priced.Plus, with so many people showing up to events, they have specific parking so you only have to feel a little worried about leaving your car unattended in Redford.

A quirky & nostalgic place to see a movie. Beautiful old theater, organ player, intermissions, a master of ceremonies, etc made the location as much of the attraction as the show we saw. As long as youre not expecting modern amenities, I think youll love the charm.

One of the greatest nights Ive had in a long time. Movies Ive loved since my childhood played on screen like they were when they were first released. The theatre is beautiful, and awe inspiring. The concessions are at an amazing price, and the staff are all really friendly and willing to help. 10/10 would recommend and plan on many visits in the future.

A family tradition of more than 20 years. Always a great lineup of classic films, in a classic landmark venue. Affordable ticket prices (usually $5) and an award-winning concession stand.

Bought tickets for an event, the event was rescheduled due to covid, not only was I never informed that the event was rescheduled, I only found out when i looked on their Facebook page. Even though they had my email from when I got the tickets. But when I realized that the event was changed to next year I was sad to see that it was on the same dates I have a wedding to attend to. I reached out and asked for my money back. They refused. For a year later they are unable to give me my money back and resell the tickets? They literally had to add a day to the event because so many people wanted to go. The tickets would resell in no time. I would give them zero stars if I could. I had many events cancelled or postponed due to covid this year and this is the only one that is refusing to give money back! I will never return to this place or recommend them ever again!

The theatre was quite beautiful on the inside with the gilded decor. In particular, the ceiling was especially noteworthy in it being designed to resemble a night sky studded with diamond-like stars and what appeared to be ornate scrollwork occasionally interspersed amongst the tiny stars shining above our heads. The organ player and the organ were also a nice touch as a thirty minute prelude to the start of the movie, Young Frankenstein. The outside with its old style theatre signs and the plastic letters saying what is currently playing was like traveling back in time to the early days of theatre that preceded venues as they are today. All-in-all, the entire theatre is beautifully designed and a welcome homage to an obvious love for classic movies.

Great restoration of an old time theatre. We have been going here for years and always have a great time. The 3 Stooges Festival is a great event for the whole family. Snacks are fresh and prices are very low. The hot dogs were a nice touch. Be sure to visit and support this theatre so it continues to be open for a long time.

I have had the pleasure of seeing a couple of movies here.Its pretty amazing to see the pipe organ before the movie starts.And it is super cheap. It is worth checking it out.

What a great movie theater! We drove 60 miles to the Redford and had a great movie theater experience. This theater has been restored to its former 1928 beauty and is like walking back into time. When we entered, a grand piano was being played in the lobby. In the theater, there is the original 1928 Barton Theater Pipe Organ which was expertly played before the movie, and during intermission.We saw a double feature of 1950s science fiction films. I have seen them on TV in the past, but seeing them of the big screen is very different.Ticket prices were only five dollars, and the concession stand prices were more than fair, and probably less than half of what you would pay at a first run movie. The staff was very helpful in every way.This theater is located in an older Detroit neighborhood, but I didn’t feel unsafe at any time. They used two professionally uniformed security guards to secure their fenced in parking lot and surroundings.Give the Redford a try, and I think you won’t be disappointed. I plan on returning to the Redford again!

Love this place! A hidden gem in Detroit. Its completely run by a dedicated group of volunteers and its very budget friendly. A fun date for around $20. Go check it out!!

This place is a great place to take a date. Very reasonable prices for everything. A place of historic value!

Such a Gem, saw the screening of the Aretha Franklin documentary, Amazing Grace! The theater made an excellent venue with all the nostalgia it encompasses. Thanks to the volunteer staff!

Consistently a great time for me and my family. Fantastic concessions, friendly atmosphere, and, of course, classic movies on the big screen. Im able to share with my elementary aged son an experience that I loved growing up. The organ music prior to the show and shared love of great movies by the volunteers who operate this Detroit gem make this an experience not to be missed. Christmas movies, Three Stooges and animation festival are now traditions for our household.

A greatly preserved piece of Redford History. Very nice to see an old time Theater being put to good use today.

I have been here many times since moving to Michigan. Its a beautiful theatre and you can feel the love and pride they put into it. The price are fantastic and the experience is unforgettable. If youre a fan of It Follows, this was the theater in the beginning of the movie. The only problem is that the seats are pretty small. Just prepare for that. Otherwise, amazing and fun. Great people and security in the parking lot.
