Kauai Movie Theater
Not too long ago, there were 4 movie theaters on Kauai. Then there were 3. Now we’re down to 2! Oh no, what will we do?! Netflix, perhaps : ) Anyway, if you’re on the Garden Island, and you want to see the latest flick, here are your best options…
Kukui Grove Marketplace
The people here are very friendly and customer service is da best. If you’re from the mainland, you may be a bit disappointed with the seating, but hey, it’s still Kauai, so no expect brah!

Waimea Theater
If you live on the West Side, then check out the Waimea movie theater. I have never been there, so I cannot give it a review. For those of you who have visited the theater, please comment for others below.

No it is not the mainland. Here KuKui does not gouge you and charge ridiculus prices from movie to nuts. Then there is the Aloha. Zip from my experience in most mainland theatres.
Aloha - starts with the ticket taker that beautiful (in spirit and life) gray haired lady, who happens to be the owner. Her aloha and vibrant spirti sets the tune for your movie experience.
She is loved by her employees and keeps things ship shape.
Thank God it is not a mainland movie experience.

PS to show her customer appreciation she occaisional throws in a free movie day.
Yeah i wonder why they closed all the other ones down. Now the north shore people have to drive farther and it costs gas money.
2 theaters…Kukui and Waimea.
I had spoken with the owner of the Kilauea and Waimea theaters and he informed me that both would be shutting down. But I do see that the Waimea theater is open. I will update the information above.
We’re heading to the Garden Isle for my 60th. Staying on the South shore at the Point. Although the cinema in fun, and in the evening it’s nice to check out a celluloid, the real reason of flying to paradise is to “Be There”. So, movies are great, but not really for the “day trippers” mostly for the locals to enjoy. Keep them operating if supported.
