A lot of fun!

A lot of fun!
DJ did an awesome job and the sound/lighting system ROCKS!
The staff was very accommodating.
Building is a bit older which on one hand adds a cool touch of nostalgia, however, building could use a few (minimal) cosmetic updates and/or repairs.
Overall, I'd recommend considering this venue for your wedding reception or party as the overall experience was pleasant and a very good experience.

Went for a wedding reception. Popular spot over the generations. Quirky. Wedding party was seated on stage, which was a cool feature. Very tall ceilings. Intimate space.

Food was okay- you have to use venue catering. Parking is tough to find. No parking lot.

Aug 24th 2012, we had our wedding at 20th Century (per recommendation from a friend) we were treated so well, all our guests had rave reviews about the food, venue, and people working there. Having out of town guests be able to Valet park for the wedding was really helpful as there is limited parking in Hyde park. The people at 20th really do care about you, and the whole night was just a blast of fun! I had all my questions answered whether email or phone, and a refund issued for a special bottle of booze that we didn't end up drinking for the toast, with no problems.

Nice, small venue with great bartender service. Drinks were reasonably priced too, especially compared to all the other bars and venues in Cincinnati. Pending on the concert lineup, I will be back!

This place definitely takes you back a few generations with the Marquee sign and "old school" design. I was here for the Triumph Unveil party. I'd love to know more about the history of the establishment.

It's an interesting old building and a great event space. Came here to see a showing of "The Man Who Ate New Orleans". Parking is available just off Oakley Square on the side streets. Also, it's right across the street from Dewey's. Dewey's and an independent film showing at the Century Theater makes for a great date night.

On 10/08/2016, my wife and I had our wedding reception at this incredible venue. It's not too difficult too find a beautiful venue in the Cincinnati area. What is hard to find, is such a loving and caring staff that accommodates you through the entirety of the proces. Everyone at this establishment is so passionate and precise about making your special day, as amazing as possible. This place literally had the entire package! And so many different options to choose from, we couldn't have chosen a more perfect place. We got a photographer, our food, a DJ (Mark) with a superb stage presence, photo booth, beautiful event hall, and the list goes on. All for a practical budget! Mark (the owner) guided us every step of the way and made us a priority. This venue has it going on. If you are looking for a venue for a day that you want to be unforgettable, I highly recommend The 20th Century Theatre. I can assure you, that you will not be disappointed. Thank you guys for making our day so special. We love you all!

Our son and his beautiful wife were married on July 30th and had their reception at the 20th Century Resturant. I can not say enough about the venue. The food was excellent, (had Mac & Cheese for the little ones running around), the bar staff knew how to make drinks and we're not afraid to pour a good shot, people were impressed with the starlight decorating effects, and the acoustics were very good in that music didn't echo but you could carry on a conversation. Did I say the food was excellent? If you a planning a wedding reception, check them out. They actually schedule food tasting to help you make up your mind! Bon Appetite!

Loved the foyer and main room was nice. Loved the classic feel of the place, until I tried to used the restrooms during intermission. Not enough room to get passed bar and bathrooms too small; definitely needs renovation there.

In attendance of a show that cannot be talked about, atmosphere was enticing and nostalgic while also being decorated like something directly out of a Skulls movie. Definitely looming forward to the Bi Monthly "shows that shall not be discussed."

The venue is small and nice. However during the concert a group of 4-5 guys were pushing each other into other crowd members like a mosh pit. This was not a mosh pit type band and they were just knocking other people in the crowd over and trying to start fights. There was no security nearby and no one did anything so I watched the people around them move to the back or just leave. Very distracting and disappointing.

Converted movie house from decades gone by that has for quite some time become a small music/performance venue in Oakley. Tables/chair seating down and theater seating in the balcony. Parking can be a challenge. Likely not as resplendent as it was in it's heyday but at least it is still in use.

Gorgeous place, great food and bar.
Staff was a little chatty with each other at the bar, need a little refresher that customer first, otherwise prefect!

The Masons held a Monte Carlo fundraiser there to try to fund one whole airplane for an Honor Flight. Jump 'n' Jive Big Band played the music for dancing. Dance floor is the lower level. This place is wonderful for gatherings, receptions, movies. A real gem for Oakley.

Old movie theatre renovated to accommodate a party. Great for sports parties or company events. Great audio visual capability and decent bar. No super fancy, but very capable. Parking is a bit tough since it's on a busy main street.

20th Century Theater is an amazing wedding venue! Lindsey was incredibly easy to work with, very professional, quick to respond and has a lot of experience. The DJ Mark was fantastic as well; our music, lighting and photobooth were all done perfectly! All around we had an awesome wedding experience and would HIGHLY recommend this venue to everyone!

Good venue for concerts. Need more bartenders to keep up, lines too long. They didn't have cranberry juice and ran out of Titos vodka. Not as prepared as they should've been for the age of crowd attracted by Aja 1/27/18.

We had our wedding reception at the 20th yesterday and it was a blast!!! The venue is so beautiful and unique. All our guests seemed to really love it. The staff is amazing and you must take advantage of the option to use their photographer/photobooth/DJ. It was so nice at the beginning of planning to have these things quickly checked off my list! Big thanks to Lindsey, Kristina, Will and Mark. Kristina with photography is so sweet and with you all day. Mark, the DJ, coordinates the entire night and is so awesome!!! Our guests loved the music and the dance floor was full always! He made the night flow exactly how we wanted it!! Lindsey helps you a lot along the way to plan the big day leading up and Will's team makes you a delicious dinner the night of!

I could keep going on forever and ever about how amazing yesterday went for us at the 20th Century! If you are looking for a fun, unique, easy-going, awesome, and beautiful venue.... Look no further!!

Thank you so much 20th Century Theater!!
Amber & Kevin
