A crowd favourite

Get there early on the weekends if you want to snag a good seat—Fifth Ave is a crowd favourite, and the lineups don’t lie. The theatre houses five screens, one of which is slightly larger with balcony seating. All five have the famous “love seats” with armrests that raise up to make one big seat for cuddling.

Just like its sister theatres, Fifth Avenue offers student rates, real butter on their popcorn and a concession stand with baked goods. Cheap, buttery and pastry filled, just how I like my movies.
