Reviews of Boise Spectrum Center (Mall)

John Walker

There is always an amazing movie playing. It's great place to go and spend time with your friends and family. Plus I mean come on you can never get enough popcorn

Paula McCarthy

They have restaurants and a movie theater there. We love McGraths and Chuck Arama.

Brenda Jansson

LOVE this theater! It's huge, super clean and well run. Plenty of parking and shops for browsing if you have to wait for a movie.

ginnie corona

Movie staff helpful, theater clean. But sadly this visit the popcorn was oddly cold and seemed very old. Usually its better

John Smith

It's been redone and is much better. The Edwards is there and there are a couple of little shops nearby. Overall much better than it was.

Like Mike Reviews

I love movies and Edward's is the place to go. Its clean and the picture looks great

Eddy Svidgal

Typical but nice seats and CLEAN BATHS! Important!

Christopher Weston

I like the theater, and I like the staff, I just like how the theater is operated. Prices are still ridiculous; you'd have thought they learned their lesson when another theater opened and immediately started undercutting them on ticket and food prices. Apparently not. It's a nice theater, just not worth the money.

Krissy Kneeland

movies are supposed to be super exciting but it's a panic attack trying to pay.

Rory Fargo

Great place to see your favorite movies. Tuesday is special admission day.

Marc Brown

Lots of good restaurants and of course, Edwards theater that has IMAX.

Jessika Tracy

Very cool place my kids enjoyed the little Jungle Gym toys that they have very fun and a very cool place to take your family to have a little after noon out

Steve Hetherington

All ways clean not overly crowded ... Good seats

Jon boy

Lots of fun here in this area! Went to the theatre and ate at mad max which was really good. They have couches outside for us to sit as well. Really relaxing on a cool summer night to sit out on the couch and just watch everything happening. They have other restaurants here as well like good burger, a stir fry type of place, and there's another one but I can't think of it at the moment. The parking wasn't a pain here either. The whole visit was a breeze.

Elizabeth Adkisson, MS, LPC, NCC

New business joining the complex bringing new life. Close to Oxford Suites and other attractions. NY Giant Pizza should not be missed.

Annette Guidry

Good place for movies and interesting foodie places -- like a fancy mac and cheese specialty store. IMAX is here, too. On the weekends or first Thursdays there is sometimes a festival atmosphere, with live music.

Misty I

I am not sure what it is, but whenever I come here the staff somehow manages to make me feel sorry for them. Like there is no smiling, no HIHOWAREYA? Nothin that says hey, glad you chose this place to watch your movie :D It remains my least fav theater but I am giving it 3 stars because it's near Costco and I time it with my visit.

Gino Colaianni

Clean, good viewing and sound system. Popcorn had small, crumbling kernals. Not big and fluffy.

Amberly Slater

Saw the new spiderman movie it was a good expierence but it was 6 buvks for a large drink!

Lisa Vandenberg

Saw movie here fun place but very pricey

Jason Young

Fun theater!

Fred B

Glorified strip mall. Not very busy during the day or early evening. Not sure about later hours.

Sunbunny064

Small but growing. Needs attention, has so much potential.

Victor Mazo

Great place for hanging out, garbing drinks, and watching movies.

K Z

Great place for date night. Plenty of places to grab a bite to eat, walk around and then go see a movie. Easy location to get to as well. Right off the highway. Also in a good location for other area attractions. While it's definitely no village of Meridian it's not a bad place.

Jayme Ann

Such a beautiful place. Helps that it's a poke stop and I love that. The fountain is beautiful, the stores are nice and clean oh, and there's a nice variety in the stores. Wish the prices were lower but I'll deal with it since we have no choice, lol.

jeff aggson

The seats are super comfortable!

Michael Jobe

After the remodel this theater is gorgeous, food options all around, and plenty of space.

chriselda taylor

AARP movie for adults sponsored by Boise Spectrum was nice to not have kids kicking or screaming.

Rebecca Hasher

Always fun here. Great places to Lodge watch movies go to fun atmosphere brewpubs and walk around. Super-safe fun environment for everybody in the family

Thomas Ambrose

Just visiting friends . Very nice brewery . Surprised to learn that there are so many micro breweries here . Just a guy who likes pub food and brews , the Moscow mules are not bad either! Parking in Boise is strange , I'm sure they weren't ready for guys from New Jersey . Great pub food menu , try the nacho platter as an entree . Beer selection will keep your palate satisfied . ENJOY !!!

Nek'ka Migel

They have Good Burger in the Chow Marketplace. Yum, yum.

Steve Langdon

Good place to see a movie. More places have moved in around the theater for better options.

Ashley Syme

Good food options and movies! What's not to love?!

Andrea Ketterling

The theater is OK but I would prefer going to the village to see a movie

Susanna Manor

I love this place there’s so much to do!

Gibby Gipson

Love the movies! And place, easy to get to and find, great friendly staff. They were willing to trade my accidental screw up for an different theater time for one they had at the desk! Very thankful.

Oscar Reyes

At these location you can find Food, movies, shops and much more. Awesome area for kids to play, and restaurants for adults to have a drink, enjoy and relax. Plus is home to the only IMAX theater in town.

Marie Caudillo

Always a joy to go see movies there!

Diane Saxman

Great selection of shops

Zack White

Legends is awesome! Classy feel. Great place to catch the game, and the firecracker salmon was the best I've had!

John Anderson

Movie Theater and places outside to eat...nice little area.

Benjamin Tomlin

Nice place. Lots of stores

Willy Martin

Beautiful well kept theater. Great employees.

Dustin Abbe

Good screens good sound good service but way over priced not unusual just a reason to go to the cheaper theatres

Cavan Gates

Saw Alita: Battle Angel at the imax and it was incredible! It was 3D, and the clarity and sound really do immerse you into the film.

Evan Claypool

Awesome place to take your family! the people here were real nice. The seating is nice and spacious! Good snacks

Brenda Kopsa

It was the most comfortable I've ever been at a movie the chairs we're just right you could Rock nicely padded I might actually be able to go to movies again without being uncomfortable

awolfalone2006

Nice theater, but the last two times I have gone, Infinity War and Endgame, they started playing the 2D IMAX for awhile before catching it and restarting with the 3D IMAX. Otherwise, no complaints.

It's pointless to argue

I went and seen brightburn. I enjoyed the movie and I recommend it. I don't really care for the assigned seating.

Brittany Aldrich - Kent

Its usually busy when I come to this area but I love all the different restaurants they have some decent places to eat.

Ek Inthavong

Always good to go see a movie on the big screen. Large theater and clean auditorium. Nicely decorated. Concession has expanded their food menu. It's great!

Jessna Rodriguez

I have seen a number of movies here and it's been great. The IMAX is definitely something you want to experience. The concessions are a little bit on the pricey side though. Overall, a really nice theater.

Eric Thies

My family and I went to see a movie and chow down on some popcorn. The spectrum makes me feel excited when i get there. It's got lots of cool lights and really tall ceilings making it feel bigger than it really is. The atmosphere there makes you feel really energized like you can't wait to see what you came to see. The seating is comfortable and with no problem viewing the screen no matter where one seats the enjoyment is entertaining. It's a groovy place to hang out at that makes you want to go back as soon as possible.

Nele Ofisa

Great place to take a photo with Boise Sign

Amber Dykema

5 star mall! However the Mongolian grill in the food court is one star. My husband needed some napkins and grabbed a few from there spot. The cashier chased him down to tell him he cant take napkins without a purchase. All I can say is wow! He took 5 napkins!

Tubs Buba

Recliner seats more leg room shure beats ontario oregon movie theaters

Marty Kazmaier

Way too pricey for the most part.

Tim Newman

Not enough variety... A movie theatre and restaurants and that's it. Needs more.

Robbie Speelman

It's definitely on the spectrum. 13/10

Judy Davis

They have great events hosted by other companies!

Pam Linn

Nice theatre. Quite clean and I love the big screen!

Joanna Hardy

Great Layout, great everything

Dustin Hughes

Other than the theater there isn’t much of a draw to this area. Many of the businesses that open here seem to die out within a few years. There have been some improvements to the center that make it a more visually pleasing and usable space. The fire pits have been a nice addition. Hopefully with the beautification process they can breath new life into the area.

Katie Ashley

Saw maleficent wow a great movie!

Jeff Schroeder

very pricey large drink medium popcorn $15 other than that pretty nice place I'll be bringing my own food and drink next time

Douglas Hungerford

Great place to watch movies and has awesome sound

B. Anderson

Had a good time at the Spectrum. Went to see a movie. Edward is a nice theater, the staff were all friendly and helpful. They have a good selection of snacks for the movie and the service was pretty good. The Spectrum also has multiple places to get a regular meal as well. The places pretty much has something for everyone. It's easy to find and plenty of free parking. I would recommend going here to anybody. You'll have a great time I'm sure.

Marsha Parsons

I love going here for the movies. I am a member of Regal Club and I would differently recommed

Sherry Hernandez

So many shops and the theatre was awesome!!

Forg Menot

Super fun but a bit spendy.

Israel Reese

I enjoyed the movie sorry I would rather see them for a lot less at the reel

Jesse Fleming

Love edwards. Everything from the big theater itself to the lighting and staff gives this place a special feel. The entire complex is loaded with good restaurants if you dont want the standard movie fare, and they even have a $5 tuesday movie night. Plus an imax if your heart so desires. 5 out of 5 stars fo sho.

Claire Ferguson

Wonderful!

Robert Wurster

Yummy crepe and a movie.

Christopher Johnson

Amazing theatre with great food available. Large amount of parking and overall a good experience.

Kenyon York-Byers

I wish I could go to Edwards every single day!!

Bo Williams

Friendly staff, excellent picture and sound.

Maria Hernandez

Views are great no matter where you sit.

Katy Albert

Boise Barber college is the bomb

Tyler K Fisher

It's fine. Your basic movie theater

Carrie Andrysiak

Needs to have elevators for people to get up to the higher seats.

Darla Callaway

Love the movies. Don't forget about Edwards 22! Gotta love options.

James Derderian

Edwards Cinemas are the Biggest and best movie places in Boise. Meridian has the Village Cinema which is great but why deal with Eagle road traffic.

Linda Elliott

Always enjoying going there. When something does go wrong, they strive to fix or compensate for it each time.

Aaron Schmitt

Awesome experience

Ron Hayward

There are a couple in the large section of theaters that have the the old style rigid stationary seats that are difficult to make it through a movie in comfortably those of us with bad backs, but find out which theater # your movie is in and if the seats are stationary or not. The rest and most of the theaters have comfortable tall well cushioned seats which also have flexible rocking like mobility which definitely makes a big difference in comfort. Tuesday is $ 5.50 movies all day with half priced popcorn. A good selection of food, snacks and drinks. The earlier in the day is always better for getting the perfect seats and least crowd.

C Jensen

Fun place to frequent...

Mark Hughes

It's a shopping mall. You can find wastelands like this in any medium city.

Lisa Fernandez

Ryan Wilson

Love the Spectrum. It has everything you need for a night or afternoon out. Movies, regular or IMAX, and many different dining options. You can walk everywhere. Its perfect.

trevor espinola

Great theater with nice staff. Lots of eatery's around plus games.

Aaron Paskell

Family fun-filled movie theatre with great posters, colors, and hilarious entrances!!

Kenneth Kerpa

The IMAX is terrible it was too hot they had no change of you had cash and the seats were uncomfortable. Other than that it was ok.

Jennifer Gilbert

We LOVE this place! My family loves to come here. The movies are fun the theaters are clean and the games and decor are a blast. My little guys and teenager all have something to enjoy. We also like sitting around the fire outside I the square and there is always plenty of parking and food/dinner choices around.

Josh Stanley

What can ya say it's a major theater they definitely have lots of options for movies including IMAX which is awesome

drake rencowski

Good price for great movies

Lorrie Workman

I like this theatre. It's smaller and it has great prices

Kathy Franckiewicz

If you're handicapped in any way that affects your walking, be prepared. It's not well equipped, and the theaters are far apart. (Some Really far from the entrance!) It has affected my ability to visit very often.

Spring Soteropoulos

Popcorn was crumbs, hot dog was cold dry and bun was hard, went got new one and the girl put bad one back under heat lamp after the bad hot dog had been touched. Not sanitary. Customer service was horrible.

Bernice Larsen

Loved it seem crawl it keep you at the edge of my seat

Handyman Dan

It is one of the better theaters in the area.

Sharon Bloor

How convenient, movies galore, food courts, nearby restaurants, nearby Motels just off the freeway

Mark Snyder

They need some new shopping and entertainment things going on other than that I love them Spectrum

Matt Ekblom

This place has all you need for that night out with that special someone. You got food movies the whole enchilada lol!

Katie Nunnally

Use to go to this location as a kid/teen I was suprised when you had to pick a seat while getting tickets ...thats about the only thing that has changed

Andrea Werner

There are lots of places to eat and it's a nice place to walk around.

Shaun Blodgett

Gotta see one movie every once in awhile. So go to the best movie complex. Edwards 21

Sarah Ostrom

Clean lobbies and bathroom. Movies are just the right volume. Love the comfy seats.

Alex Byington

With all the money paid to them. I would think by now that they would better the sound quality

David Campbell

Great theater

Michelle Greim

Snacks are ridiculously priced. No bathroom upstairs for wheelchair/handicap seats.

Shaylin Carroll

They have some cool spots! They even have a playground so you have another option of something to do while you wait for your movie to start. There's also a fire pit that I believe they have on at night. And there's some cool lights they turn on as well. It's actually a pretty good spot for pictures or something. And of course there's the big "BOISE" sign that everyone takes pictures at. Would recommend checking this area out. The Creperie is really good!!

D G

We went on Sunday to see Avengers and every worker at Edwards was positive and helpful. Yes the environment was stressed because of the expectations of the movie but the employees didn’t seemed to be phased by it. We were greeted at the ticket booth kindly and warmly, just like at the snack counter, and throughout the lobby. Very comfortable seats too.

james malikijuda006@msn.com

There are so many awesome things to do and yummy places to eat! A very fun spot

Mark Wasfy

Patronship has slowed but it hasn't held back the areas revitilization. From Thursday thunder summer concert series to a winter jubilee, the venue is enjoyable. Now with more stores and eateries it's enjoyable no matter the season.

JS

Hard to find businesses. Nice outside when the weather is good.

Derick Richter

Great venue and lots of other eateries to dine and before the movie. Concessions are super expensive, but that's par for the course in movie theaters. Great place for movie night.

bob weideman

Nice place. Too many lines

Michael Fredericksen

Very difficult to get in and out of due to construction. Most of this shopping center is unfinished

Crystal Evans, CMA

Fun for families and or date place

Colin Einfalt

Great place to watch movies! Always clean and good options!

steve c

Love going to the movies with the family. Just do it, go see a movie and eat snacks.

Apryl Bogue

Not much to offer anymore, couple of places empty and up for lease.

Sherry Bell

Fun place to go to the movies, food and fun

Gianna Stelluto

Larry Adams

Great entertainment area. Small selection of quality dinning experiences

Barbara Rix

Great movies comfortable seating

chuy Martinez

Great place

jacqui schaning

Clean theaters, fast service

Titus McGuirk

The spectrum is a phenomenal Entertainment movie establishment providing intricate Movie experience for the individual five senses of each individual experience. Even though the price of each movie before and after 5 p.m. whether child or senior citizen or a combination of Ages! Even though the Boise Spectrum as competition all over the valley! The only way to possibly stay in business is 2 have the movie prices and concession stand prices at least $5 difference than other places! I myself have not gone to Edwards 21 cinema is because Hollywood has not come out with a particular venue of movie that's of Interest to me!! (Eventhough I have followed numerous star actors & their endeavors!

walter odedo

It was a treat to see how much they have changed the exterior of the theatre. I remember going here as a kid and it was always fine but now as an adult the shopping center has really really grown and is comparable to a small version of the village in meridian. Very pleased.

Vern Patrick

Don't remember going there.

T.L. FARNSWORTH

Spendy but nice frien d ly staff

Angel Hubsmith

I just like it w that's the only reason

Andrew Whiteley

I love this place! The staff is awesome, helpful, and courteous. The theaters are clean and comfortable. I once went to a new release where the theater was to full for me to find a seat. Instead of making me choose another time I was given an upgrade to the same movie at the IMAX at no additional cost.

Craig Campbell

I ate at the new restaurant concept Chow. The problem with getting excited about a new concept coming to town is you naturally develop higher expectations. Unfortunately, Chow was very underwhelming in nearly every way possible. The concept is similar to a food court, with what appears to be individual restaurants surrounding a bar. However, the employees seemed to work at all of the spaces. The manager running the place knew less about what to do than the employees. For example, I went to Good Burger which advertised a special burger that was discounted for the day. I asked the one employee, I think he was stoned, what the special burger was for the day. He looked at me blankly and then yelled passed me to the manager that was sitting at the bar. He had to yell about 4x before getting the manager's attention. Finally, the manager responded and yelled back at him that the special was whatever the employee wanted it to be. Then the employee told me they had no special that day. I ordered another burger of the menu board and it came to $13 with fries. I immediately hoped that for the price this burger better be amazing. I waited 25 minutes for my burger while 4 employees, who had joined the original employee, stood around literally doing nothing. While I waited I sat at a table between Good Burger and the bar and I was attacked by about 50 flies swarming the area. It was absolutely disgusting. Customers were complaining about the flies at the bar and they were told that they didn't know what to do about the flies. Finally my burger arrived. I looked at my burger. It more closely resembled beef jerky than a burger. It was overly flavored and dried out like jerky. This burger was not just well done, it was jerky. If I had not ordered to go and had not left already by the time I attempted to eat my burger, I would have demanded a new burger or refund. But with the quality of the employees, that would have probably taken an hour to do.

Bill Brewer

Place used to be fading a bit but a number of great restaurants going in really boosted it. Theater is really nice also.

Sharon Kohlbecker

Very nice theater. Seats are comfortable and theater very clean. Love the idea of assigned seats.

Darla Hudson

A wonderful place to shop with a spectacular atmosphere and idealic shopping. Great experience for the whole family with childre of all ages, young and old alike. A variety of places to eat, a great play area for young childre, lots of rest areas for families to allow the very youn and elderly to to stop and rest awhile. In addition, a great outdoor Ice skating ring for all ages so the whole can ice skate, no matter their age or abilities. I wholeheartedly, recommend this for all families.

Danette Wallace

I'm in a wheel chair, I got to go upstairs using the elevator so I didn't have to sit so close to the screen and get a stiff neck! Lots of fresh snacks too!

Shylah Eells

Shopping, dining, and cinema center. It's nice.

Jana Holladay

Ate at cracker Barrell and my steak was tough and over cooked. The waitress wasn't knowledged on meat

Richard Sanders

Nothing special. Just your usual Cineplex Mall suspects.

Chris Wright

Great place. I like how they made it so you pick your seats when you purchase your tickets. This way you know that you will have a seat when you get into the theater.

Stephanie B

We went on a weekday to a matinée. We had the entire theatre to ourselves!! This place is very clean and comfortable. Even the bathrooms are well maintained.

Arlyn Cheney

Went to see a movie. Lines were short for both tickets and popcorn. Theater and restrooms were both very clean and the movie was very good! Will go again very soon!

Jenness Johnston

I picked up on UberEats order from there and it was hard to see the restaurant's name. I was hoping it would be easier to navigate to ease a quicker pickup. But the experience when I've gone there to watch movies has always been very enjoyable one of my favorite things is movie theater popcorn which is really good there.

Cheryl Lawwill

Very clean and all the people very nice and helpful

Benjamin Jenson

Went to watch a movie, the place is nearly a ghost town around 4:30, wasn't too much busier after I got out of the place. Clean and we'll maintained

Debbie LaFond

Great movie theater.

Nammer Rama

I can't stand the assigned seating requirements of this organization.

Jerimiah Campbell

Assigned seating is why I don't go to the Villiage in Meridian. Quit trying to be something your not. I Love you for what you were, not what your trying to become.

melissa thompson

Everything is all in one area pretty much so can just walk to everything

Danika Tracy

Place looks great now

Erik Sanchez

Cool meeting place with several food options as well as drinks..
