Frequently asked questions about Darkroom
Is the photo booth at Darkroom still working?
Yes, as far as we know. We last checked on May 18, 2026. If you turn up and it's out of order, tap "Report an issue" on this page so the next person doesn't waste a trip.
How much is a strip at Darkroom, and can I pay by card?
The price is posted on the machine. Cash only — bring coins or small notes. Most analog booths in this range run a few pounds, euros or dollars a strip.
Is Darkroom a real film photo booth or a digital one?
Real film. The strip is developed with real photo chemistry inside the machine, so give it a few minutes to drop.
Do I need to book, or can I just walk up to Darkroom?
Just walk up. It's a coin-op booth, not a hire service — no booking, no attendant. If the venue is open, the booth is on.
How many photos do you get at Darkroom, and how long does it take?
One strip of four shots. The machine takes the four in quick succession, then develops the strip on the spot — usually three to five minutes before it drops into the slot.
What time can I use the booth at Darkroom?
Daily Open. The booth is inside the venue, so those are the hours that matter.
How do I get to Darkroom?
It's at 7302 Melrose Ave, L.A., California. Pop the address into your maps app for directions.
Can I get into Darkroom with a wheelchair or a pram?
We haven't checked access at this venue. Classic booths have a fixed bench and a curtain, so the booth itself is a tight fit; the venue's own access is the thing to ask them about.
What if the booth at Darkroom is out of order when I get there?
It happens — these machines are decades old. Scroll to "Nearest booths" in L.A. for the closest alternative, and tap "Report an issue" so we can flag it for everyone else.
When was Darkroom last checked?
May 18, 2026, by us. If you've been more recently, mark it visited on this page — that's how we keep listings honest.
