The Picture House - Pelham — Local services in Town of Pelham

The Picture House Regional Film Center is a wonderful historic theater based in Pelham, New York.

In November of 2023, I brought and treated my wife and myself to the theater to attend and watch “The Marvels” and we very much enjoyed our moviegoing experience.

The theater’s staff were very friendly and kindly welcomed us in when we arrived. We found the auditorium to be clean, quite spacious and our seats were very comfortable.

Other nice features of the the Picture House is that it is based in a very beautiful and quiet neighborhood, street side parking is ready available, and snacks and beverages are offered at very reasonable prices.

When reading about the history of the Picture House, both my wife and I learned that the building was built in 1921 with Spanish revival architectural features, and initially operated as a private theater.

Thanks to the amazing efforts of the civic minded Westchester residents, the theater was saved from potential demolition and it has functioned as a nonprofit film center since the early 2000’s, featuring films and educational programs. Additional efforts are being made to invest and revitalize the theater.

Both my wife and I regard the Picture House to be an amazing gem & treasure of Westchester County and we highly recommended for everyone to visit and watch films at this...

Pros: The prices for the food, including the popcorn and the soda, and the tickets per person are low compared to other movie theaters. The seats are wide, leather and a comfy support for your back. And the projector is wide, and there is a beverage stand right next to your seat as well. And you can bring your own snacks from home as well. I hope that people will come to this theater very soon and see one or more of these movies. I know I have, and it was an...

I just visited The Picture House last night for the first time. On a whim, I decided to see the Bob Dylan movie. I couldn't believe it... I was the only one in the whole theater! Maybe it was too cold for everyone else to venture out. Anyway, I thought the theater was fantastic. It's local to where I live, the seats were comfortable without being so comfortable that it risks putting me to sleep, and the sound and video quality were great. I also thought there was a great selection of snacks and drinks. I would rather go here ANY day than an AMC. Check...
