Had a great experience here with my friends. All of the staff were so friendly, especially Kaden who made me an amazing Moscow Mule and was super friendly! Will definitely be visiting this location again.

We came here on a rainy, cold winter night after driving everywhere looking for a pub. When we entered, we were blown away by the strange, artsy, boho atmosphere of this place. The high ceiling had amazing multicolored hanging lamps, and strange oddities and posters from many different eras including an old bicycle were displayed along the high walls. The pub was bustling so we decided to sit upstairs where the ambiance was dark and warm and overlooked the downstairs. Every wall was adorned with some artifact that was interesting. Our fish n chips and shepherd's pie were hearty and delicious and the local and British beers crisp, biting and thirst quenching. We really loved it here and will definitely be coming back.

Service was on the spot. Quick ask if I've been helped upon entry and when seated at the bar. First time visit, and fun atmosphere. The old building, history to the area, and a theatre to boot. Add a restaurant and full bar, woohoo! Happy hour every day until 6p. The unique beer to St. John's is the Yule Shoot Your Eye Out Double IPA. Not an IPA fan and enjoyed many other options. I enjoyed the Dilly Tuna Salad Sandwich w/cajun tots. Tots! How can you go wrong with Tots. Thee was an NFL playoff game playing that made the time pass. Overall, I enjoyed my service, meal, and drinks. Will return soon.

Best theatre ever! So cheap and lovely. I love supporting small theatres. Seats could be more comfortable but the vibe of looking at what clearly used to hold plays is really fun.

My daughter and I went to St. John's Theatre to see the Wonka movie. This is a great theater. The building is really old and the architecture and the design show that throughout. It's McMenamins food so you know what you're going to get. We had a huge basket of Cajun tater tots. They were delicious. We shared a dungeon burger and it was Top-notch as well. Each of us had an old-fashioned to start off. If you have never had a McMenamins old-fashioned, you should check it out. We enjoyed a Couple of beers, ruby,throughout the movie, and Popcorn, which they freshly pop. The seating is comfortable, and the screen is huge and clear. You choose your own seat, so you may want to get there early if you have a favorite spot. One of my favorite McMenamins spots to watch movies ;)

McMenamins is a collection of nearly 60 eclectic locations situated throughout the Pacific Northwest and we visited the St. John's Theater & Pub. This special space was originally constructed as the National Cash Register Company pavilion for the 1905 World's Fair in Portland and its domed theater drew thousands to view some of the first publicly displayed motion pictures anywhere. During our visit there were multiple occasions when it appeared that a plane was flying low overhead or perhaps there was a freeway above us. Both of those assumptions proved incorrect as the noise and vibrations were actually being generated by the theater next door. Currently "Shazam: Fury of the Gods" is playing, but you can find their daily screening schedule at www.stjohnsmovies.com). If you choose to catch a flick here you may be pleased to know that their full menu of food and drinks can be consumed in the theater during your movie. As for the food, we enjoyed the "Black Bean Dip" and "Scooby Snacks" appetizers. No matter the entree that you order, I'd recommend that you sample their tater tots. They were really crispy and, while I preferred the regular version, a Cajun option is also available (which I found most appropriate for sharing, as it is fairly spicy). While the "El Diablo" chicken sandwich sounds a bit intimidating, it is actually not to be feared. The service was exemplary, which seemed fitting given that our server's name was "Harmony." While we didn't take in a movie during this visit, I suspect that we'll be paying them a return visit to rectify that. And that's...Henry's Take. #portlandpubs

I've only come here to watch movies because it's such a good deal! Matinee prices for adults and kids is only $5! For showings after 5pm, adult tickets are $8 and kid tickets are $6. You can buy them online or in person. They serve popcorn as well as the regular McMenamins menu. There is usually free water off to the side of the theater and long tables in front of the theater seats. The seats are not the most comfy, but for $5, I'll take it! I usually always get a large tots to share with my boyfriend when we watch a movie at St. Johns. The staff members bring the food to you which is nice, but sometimes is distracting if the movie has already started. Seats are first come first serve so plan accordingly if you need a specific seat. I've had McMenamins tots from multiple locations and this one is very comparable to Edgefield and Kennedy School McMenamins. Overall, such a fun and cheap date night!
