The Back Stage Bar was once the actual backstage area to the Bagdad Theater as far back as 1927 when actual Vaudeville acts graced its stage. With some of the highest vaulted ceilings you could...

Be aware, the entrance to this bar is actually a little down 37th from the entrance to the theater. If you want to play pool and have a few drinks, this is an amazing place to do it. The Bagdad used...

I think the whole McMenamin's idea is pretty cool, especially for a chain restaurant. The Bagdad is no exception. Like other yelpers before me have said, the theater and adjacent pub are decorated...

Good beer, good pizza, good prices... if only the McMenamins would export this concept to the East Coast (ok, so it isn't a new concept, but I have yet to find it out here). This is a decent night...

As far as a McMenamins location goes, the Bagdad certainly does not disappoint in their offering of tasty microbrewed creations. You'll get your Rubys, Hammerheads, and Terminators alongside standard...

Like everybody else, I think the theater is amazing (although to look at the ceiling, evidently in need of repair). The restaurant/bar, however, is lacking. Firstly, the service [is bad]. I've sat for over 15...

Yummy food and cheap, second-run movies. What more could you want, really? Okay, you can have a pretty stylish historical interior, too.

The fact that this theater of almost first-run movies costs only about 3 dollars is topped only by the fact that you can order and pizza and beer and eat it while you watch. cool architecture also.
