I went to see "The American Sniper" in the smaller theatre, but it was SOLD OUT, so I saw "The Imitation Game" in the larger theatre. This was my first time at the Orpheum, and it was up to my expectations. The lobby is just off the street, and it houses the ticket counter, a small concession stand, and a smaller version of the Vers Restaurant, "Vers at the Orpheum" . This is an excellent compliment to the theatre, because it offers all-day dining for theater-goers, with menu items that are available to enjoy at the lobby bar, or for take-in to the theater.The larger theatre seats about 200+ patrons in very comfortable plush, seats that tilt back, and like most of the live theatres in the area, there is very little slope to seating rows; i.e. it is not stadium seating. The smaller theatre looks like it might seat about 80 or so patrons.The staff up front is very friendly and courteous, and ticket prices are reasonable for the first run movies being presented: i.e. Adut $10 and Senior $7.Chatham Orpheum Theater is a very welcome addition to the Lower Cape, especially after the closing of the cinema in East Harwich. Even if you are here for vacation, the Chatham Orpheum Theater is a welcome oasis to see 1st run movies on a big scree.

What a great little theater. There are usually only two moves showing, but a wide variety of movie times. We also liked the cafe where you can order coffee or a drink and even take it into the theater with you. When we were there, every seat was filled, so make sure you get there early. Not a bad seat in the house and just a great experience. I loved the mural on the wall in the lobby. Nice touch!

Great place to catch a movie. Love the mural on the wall. Lots of wonderful special events like The Sound of Music. Best movie candy - the Chatham Candy Manor cannot be beat! Run with class and heart. I love this place.

Caught "Wild" - not widely released. Great movie, so glad we caught it on the big screen. Indie movies, classics and current releases...and an excuse to visit Chatham center!

The Chatham Orpheum has been a wonderful addition to Main Street Chatham! A great selection of films, special events and functions. The staff could not be friendlier or more serviceable, and the theater is impeccably clean. The VERS cafe serves excellent food (as does the restaurant!) which you can take inside with you, along with a glass of wine or a cold beer. Best movie theater in Cape Cod!

We were able to buy our tickets on line before the show, not a huge theatre but plenty of seating. I would arrive at least 20 minutes before show time. It fills up very quickly in the last 15 minutes. Great popcorn. We saw St. Vincent and enjoyed our experience very much. Will go to this theatre again when in Chatham.

Newly renovated theatre with great seats and terrific sound. Place has a very small restaurant attached and a full bar, so you can take your drinks into the show.

Wish we had a theater like this at home. It has two theaters and four different movies were showing per day during our visit. There's a small cafe where you can eat before the performance or take your food and a glass of wine or beer into the theater. There's also a great mural of movie actors and directors on the wall of the lobby - its fun to try to figure out who's who on the mural. The restaurant downstairs - Vers - is also excellent.

We have visited this theater several times, it has 2 small projection rooms, extremely comfortable seats with plenty of legroom, fresh popcorn with real butter, beautiful handmade chocolates from a local candy store, first run movies as well as weekly classic specials, family nights etc... and you can bring a glass of wine or beer into the theater with you. And if you're a foodie, don't miss the restaurant Vers below.

The Orpheum Cinema on Chatham's Main Street is a must for visitors to this lovely town.A comfortable,multi-cinema complex,offering a variety of movies at various times during the day..Attached is a restaurant,though you can eat in the main area also a well stocked bar(though the pumpkin beer is an acquired taste!).The staff,mainly volunteers are friendly,courteous and helpful.Apart from the films the highlight of any visit is the Sgt.Pepperish mural.Needs to be seen for full appreciation and discussion,A veritable must see!

Real butter is used on the popcorn which is probably not good for you if you were to go to the movies every day, but for that occasional treat, it is terrific. The theater is cozy and intimate, parking is plentiful and the movie selection is great. This was our first visit and there will be more. It is just fun to visit a small theater which lacks the plastic trappings of the megatheaters at the malls. The selection of independent films is very good. Try it when you are in Chatham.

The movie theater has recently been renovated at its former site preserving the historical setting with very comfortable seating. There is the mix of first run movies with showing of classics and documentaries in one of the two auditoriums. In addition you have the option of sipping wine as well as other beverages in the theater. A real joy!

Good movie selection,great restaurant, and nice people. The location is good since it is on Main Street in the middle of town. We were pleasantly surprised by the small but very good restaurant in the lobby. The theatre acoustics were good. Call ahead as the movies can change daily.
