The owner Jeffery Smith deserves a huge thank you! Brought this theatre back from the grave. And it is beautiful. All of the 500 seats are very comfortable ( I didnt sit in every one of them). The two bars serve excellent adult beverages from a full menu of drinks, the staff is knowledgeable and friendly, the list of performances is way more impressive than I could have imagined and its in the best location you could ask for just a block from Exchange in the stock yards. We recently watched a performance " One Man Star Wars Trilogy" and loved it. Just before that I had the honor of sitting down with Jeffery the owner for an interview on the Fort Worth Roots podcast. I got to hear all about how they dug this building out of rubble and restore it to its current state. Its beautiful. They have done an incredible job!

We use to go to the movies here at Isis when we were kids!!! We watched The Warriors, Grease, Rambo back in 1982, that’s just a few movies to name at the top of my head. Loved it! My husband is a Retired Marine of 26 years in the Corp. we came back home to Ft. Worth and saw Isis’s was renovated!! We were so excited we had to ask about it and one of the employees was nice enough to give my mother and I a tour. It is beautiful. We did get to meet one of the owners. She was very nice. It’s just too bad that it not an actual movie theater. We’ll it is but not mainly used for the movies. Would have been nice!! I have to say they did a beautiful job restoring it!!

  • Leah Adamowicz

Felt like we stepped back in time and didn’t want to leave! Made a special trip just to see this place in person and so glad we did. Jeff made me a drink at the bar which was amazing and we decided to come back at 8pm for a movie. We selected North by Northwest with Cary Grant which is one of their 40 movies they have on rotation. First ones to arrive get to pick the movie. It was so good to see a classic on the big screen! The restoration is BEAUTIFUL and I want to come on a Thursday to experience the live entertainment in the speak easy bar upstairs. We will definitely be back!

  • Deborah Carson-Bagwell

I think this place is just fantastic! If I lived in Cowtown, I would go there all the time, just for the nostalgia. It’s a cozy venue, it’s clean and the seats are comfy. We sat on the back row and could still see everything. They have a bar and candy and popcorn. What more can you ask for!? My 80 year-old friend used to go to this theatre when he was a kid to get out of the Texas heat. He said it was great and especially loved that outside looked the same. Very nice!

  • Britni Hollar

Saw a matinee in this beautifully restored theater and I will go back for an evening showing and visit the cocktail lounge. I was the first person to the showing so I got to pick the movie. I believe they host events also and would be an amazing venue and backdrop for a celebration. My grandparents used to walk from Diamond Hill to watch the shows when they were kids, it’s wild that I can do the same thing in the same place!

  • Sir Owis

Went to see the One-Man Star Wars trilogy show. It is a most see for any StarWars fan. What an experience! Tickets were donated by Downtown Cowtown ISIS theater through VetTIX. Thank-you Downtown Cowtown. I The theater was very cool with a unique vibe. I look forward to other events here. There are also tons of great restaurants and easy parking nearby on the Stockyards Strip. Good location.

  • mark andress

My wife and I some friends had the privilege of seeing Wade Hayes in concert at the Isis theater on Saturday, May 30, 2022, great concert but even better venue. The owner Jeff and Debbie Smith have done a remarkable job in restoring this place. We highly recommend going to this venue even if you’re not going to a show go visit the bar open 7 days a week.

  • erin valentine

My boyfriend and I went today to check this theatre out after seeing it on tik tok. We can honestly say we had an amazing time here! The employees were so kind and friendly. They helped make sure we had a great experience! We will back soon to watch another movie. I would say if you are in Fort Worth, you should DEFINITELY check it out!! 10/10!!

  • momo morris

Saw a performance. Full house. Lobby is nicely decorated, small lounge area with a bar if you want a beverage, staff on site are very helpful. Arrived early, found a parking lot behind building about a minute or 2 walk. Restaurants are close by too, everything was walking distance. Visited a cafe/restaurant before show

  • Just Me Paigey

Downtown Fort Worth, expect to park elsewhere. Very nice theater, sound is great. Can hold a lot of people! Only downside for me, a music lover, no place to dance. The staff were awesome- accommodated my husband's band very well. Fed them before showtime and the green room is fabulous! Will be back!

  • Trujillosaurus Rex

Had so much fun when I was attended for the Jurassic Park event. However, i was curious about these themed drinks they mentioned. I couldn't find the menu nor a display of the drinks. And Not one bartender helped me. NOT ONE. Is there a link to see these themed drinks or have i lost the chance?

  • Mel T

So fun to do something different @ a beautiful theatre with HISTORY in Ft.Worth!!! Beautiful theatre, great employees, this is a very cool venue. They show "classic" movies, $20 per couple AND you get a complimentary little drink & box of candy or popcorn. More people need to check this out.

  • Kelly

Great show at a great venue. The acoustics in the theater are phenomenal. Not a bad seat in the house. Met the owners. I was there to take photographs of the Joel Weaver Trio and their tribute to the music of John Denver. The theater has a full bar and concessions. I highly recommend it.

  • Lisa McCloud

Very interesting place. Got to see Jason James saw the neat upgrades and renovations done by new owner. Hopefully my husband helped make some connections between the owner and the artists and his employer. All around fun evening, friendly people and can't wait to see what future holds.

  • James Llamozas

So happy to finally come here! Grandma used to watch movies here many many years ago. It was nice to have a place to connect with her past! The experience was great. It was well air conditioned lol for which i will not complain as its currently 900 Billion °F outside. Love this place!

  • Melissa Marcelloni

Went to see a show here, and they have done a beautiful job at renovating this theater. The auditorium is great (and is sloped so there is not a bad seat anywhere) and there is a beautiful bar upstairs. The show was fantastic as well...I would definitely come see another show here!!

  • meichick3

It's completely wheelchair friendly! There is an elevator to help clients access the theater seating! The owner did a fantastic job of recreating the charm of the original theater when rebuilding the place. The staff are absolutely lovely. We will definitely take in more shows here.

  • Brittany Clark

Such a lovely small venue! We saw a comedy show on New Year’s Eve and the theatre was the perfect size. The staff are so welcoming and lovely. Very good amenities and the place was SO clean! Parking nearby is easy to find and locate. Great location too!

  • Kyrie Chewning

We hD a wonderful experience. We enjoyed a western classic in a beautiful theater. It was clean and Mark was accommodating. He made great drinks and had a great personality. We were just passing through and had a lot of luck when we stumbled upon it.

  • cowebb2327

Beautifully restored, great performance venue. Laid back atmosphere with a cozy bar in the lobby and you can take drinks to your seat that has cup holders. In the heart of cowtown, a couple of blocks from the stock yards. A wonderful experience.

  • Ann Mirabito

Unique, cozy setting for a dinner that we hosted as part of a conference held elsewhere in Ft Worth. It was great! Guests got a sense of the stockyards and old West. Owners were excellent to work with: professional, organized, on top of things.

  • Japheth Pace

Great intimate small town theatre-like venue with great acoustics, comfortable seats, good bathrooms and a full service bar. Snack cart to boot with popcorn and various candy. Easy to get to and easy walk to venue from free street parking

  • Owen Francis

An unmatched experience, a step into the past with a modern twist. The bar staff are accommodating to an exceptional standard (shout out to Cayden). The drinks are new, exciting and different, we tried drinks we had never heard of with a

  • Nicole Nevels

Wonderful place beautifully redone. It was great to see Major Attaway there. It was also very powerful to stand with Ms. Opal Lee in the main theater as well as the balcony were blacks use to have to sit during segregation and Jim Crow.

  • Joey Cotten

Beautiful theater to visit, great place to see a live show. The full bar is also a great feature, including their brilliant covered drinks (which allow you to take your cocktails into the theater). Will definitely be back again!

  • Eddie Baker

I just love the stockyards in general. Whether you just want a beer, or to people watch and dance, I think this is the best spot in FW. I haven't been in this theater, yet, but it's got to be worth the time. Maybe soon!

  • Stephanie Mamantov

This theater has been remodeled beautifully. A great value at $10 for the ticket plus 2 concessions. The seats are retro but very comfortable. Selection is wonderful and will definitely be returning to watch another

First time here to see Ty Herndon. Great restore of an iconic old movie theater. Drinks and snacks were fairly priced and the venue was charming and very nicely done. I will definitely come back for another show.

What a great event space! Music, movies and great drinks in an awesome restored theater. If you live in Fort Worth but haven't seen this restoration, you need to get to the Stockyards and check this place out!

  • J Clay

This place is awesome. Great deal. Come inside for a drink and a snack, and stay and watch a free movie in a clean air conditioned environment. Very clean bathrooms. Must stop by if you're in the stockyards.

  • M L

This place is a gem in the midst of chaos that is the stockyards. The owner is amazing and he makes the best old fashions. Don’t pass up the opportunity to check out classic films and the best mixed drinks.

Unbelievable! It's truly a jewel in the Ft. Worth Stockyard area! Visually stunning, with a staff to die for! Jeff the bartender was wonderful! Went for the John Denver show, and it was perfect! …

The parking was ridiculous. The drinks were expensive and the bartender wouldn't shake or stir my drink. But the venue was nice and clean. The Grant Morrison Band was good. I'd go see them again
