Those seats aren't great. But we loved seeing the animated shorts and there were only about 10 people in the audience.

Wonderful experience, cozy atmosphere and small groups. If you are plus size, you may need to request accommodations because the bucket seats are narrow. I emailed the owners to request a movie and they were kind and responsive about it. This place is a gem.
