About Bagdad Theater

The Bagdad Theater & Pub in Portland is a storied cinema housed in a historic building at 3702 SE Hawthorne Blvd. Since its premiere era, this venue has evolved into a lively combination of film house, pub, and event space under McMenamins. With a seating capacity around 590 in the main auditorium (some references list 700), the venue presents a unique viewing experience with rows alternating between seating and long tables, all oriented toward the screen. It’s a favorite stop for film lovers and locals looking for a classic movie atmosphere paired with good food and drinks.

Whether you’re catching a classic film, a special author event, or part of one of the ongoing film series, Bagdad Theater offers a cozy, community-focused setting. We’ll help you find easy ways to secure your seats, plan your visit, and explore nearby lodging and dining options to complete your Portland night out.

Parking in the area is primarily street parking, so arrive a bit early to snag a spot. The Bagdad is served by TriMet bus line 14 Hawthorne, placing it within easy reach of public transit options. If you’re coming from out of town, you’ll find nearby lodging like Hi Portland Hawthorne District Hostel at 3031 SE Hawthorne Blvd, plus a variety of local eateries within walking distance. For a full night out, look for affiliate hotel and restaurant partners to maximize value and convenience when planning your visit. Secure your seats with us—we’ve got you covered for a straightforward, no-fuss ticketing experience.

Note on seating: the main auditorium uses an intimate setup with alternating rows of seats and long tables facing the screen. There isn’t a published public seating chart, but our system provides available seating details to help you pick a comfortable view and reach your preferred area quickly.
