    Huge screen? Warm car? Popcorn? Sounds like a great night to me and that is what the Circle Drive-In movie theater is all about.

My daughter was trying to turn around in the seat to continue watching but couldn't see a thing - it was literally pouring ,so we decided to leave . I was surprised to see that many people stayed . Regardless , I called as soon as we left to ask if the $21 could be refunded so we could return another night .The young man who answered was friendly and said he had to ask his supervisor ,whom he put on the phone .I politely asked if we could be refunded to come back . The man was ignorant and stated ," there is no reason for a refund ,the movie is playing ,we play rain or shine " - Well sir , I have worked in customer service for 14 years and I'll tell you , I wouldn't let you run my business . How hard was it to give the refund so we could return to enjoy the movie on a night that wasn't a monsoon ? OR if you are that tight , could you not write us a voucher to come back for ONLY that movie ?‍ It's not hard to make an unsatisfied customer happy ,but you failed miserably .The one thing you did succeed at , was losing three customers who will not return

    This is my second PA drive in theater experience. There is usually another location that I go to so…read moreI cannot help but to compare. At first I was not really impressed ... minus the staff who was my actual first impression and they were very nice and cool. I was surprised we got there a few minutes before gates opened and the whole road was filled with a line to get in. They have one gate and let two cars enter. We had to buy tickets ahead of time and it was per person - not sure if this is common or just for this theater or just for special events. We went for the Godzilla Kong two day event. There is only one large theater and they gave us like no directions on where to park or what to do or anything. We got a spot pretty up close and it was not easy to see where to leave from - they definitely need more markers. I think they assume many people here are regulars but that was not the case and direction by mouth or way of sign would have been helpful. We felt so bad leaving and were not sure if we went out the "theater" correctly. They have a very small like merch stand and a very old snack stand that does have bathrooms- I got nervous seeing the port-a-potties. The bathrooms are very tiny and the stalls are even tinier so if you're claustrophobic (or a more plus sized person) it might not be super comfortable. They did have a decent amount of snacks and I like that they also sold vhs and vinyl inside. There were a bunch of cool displays for this event which I also enjoyed. I do not like that they didn't have radios to rent. Not really trusting using my car radio I did have to purchase a radio to be able to pair. They basically have an mc/dj who made a curated playlist and talked about the movies before hand. It didn't get dark until 9:15 - we only stayed for one movie because of how late it was and when we left we didn't realize how crowded it was. There definitely were some pros and cons to this theater- we'll probably be back mostly for convenience because it was a straight shot up 476 which made getting here really easy. It definitely is a bit more ... noticeably old and I don't know if they play new movies or not. But overall it was enjoyable. Next time we might stay close by when they have a triple feature like this.

It was a clear night with a lot of cars, music, special events, costumes, and just a fun vibe throughout. The on-site radio station runs programming and music up to dusk and the start of the night. We listened from a warm SUV close to the screen and even though everyone was in their own little clusters, we all laughed and cheered loud enough to carry across the open field. The people running this show do it out of love for film, the drive-in experience, and the people who come to see these films. The movies are scheduled so it brings together fans of horror, fantasy, schlock, shock, and classic Gen-X flicks. Check out their podcast which can be linked on their website. In addition to a great concession stand, they've got cool swag and merch. The portable toilet experience is hit or miss, but that's a minor bit of 'roughing it' in exchange for the experience. When we were there, a concert was playing up the road and sometimes competed with the sound of the movies, but I didn't mind that so much as some entitled whine-factories. It's just like it felt back toward the end of the golden era when I was growing up in the 70s and early 80s. Movies on a big white screen outside among a thousand close strangers. Definitely worth the drive if you're between New York and DC.

    Becky's Drive-In Theatre is a historic drive-in movie theater that opened in Walnutport,…read morePennsylvania in 1946. It was founded by William D. Beck (known to all as "Becky") and his wife Alice. Possessing a love for the cinema at a young age, Becky first began showing movies in his parents' living room using a hung bed-sheet as a movie screen. By the late 1930s, he began working as a projectionist and screened movies at various sites throughout Pennsylvania. By 1946, he opened the drive-in theater at its present site (originally called "Route 45 Drive-In"). In the following decades, Becky would continue to upgrade the grounds and added a refreshment stand, a playground for children, free pony rides, live music on certain nights, and enough space to accommodate 440 cars. By the early 1970s, the business was renamed "Becky's". Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, at a time when drive-in theaters were in serious decline, Becky's began screening adult films in order to keep the business going. By the late 1980s, Becky's returned to screening family-oriented films. Becky passed away in 1987 and Alice followed him in 2007. Today the business is owned and run by the couples' children and grandchildren. It is open seasonally from April to October. On a recent trip to visit our cousins in Pennsylvania, they took us to Becky's, which they described as "the BEST drive-in theater in the area". On the evening that we visited, we had a choice to see either "The Odyssey" or a Double Feature of "Moana" and "Minions & Monsters". We opted for the more family-friendly double feature. This was the first drive-in movie experience for my two sons, who both had a blast playing at the playground before the movie started. Becky also offers portable radio rentals, which we decided to get so we didn't drain our car batteries. Before the movie started, we hit up the refreshment stand and ordered some "Pretzel Bites", "Chicken Fingers", "French Fries", a "Hot Dog", and a "Moana Burger" (bacon, pineapple, teriyaki sauce): a delicious menu special released just for the run of "Moana". We all ended up really enjoying the new live-action version of the film. Although we had planned to stay for "Minions & Monsters", we ended up leaving after the first film because we were all exhausted. It's nice to know that historic drive-ins like Becky's still exist. We highly recommend a visit!

Discovered that they were playing an R rated movie first. (Super Troopers) and a kids movie second (because that's logical... ) Asked kindly and politely since there were many other small children here, if they could possibly show the Spider-Man first. I was told no. Okay, fair enough. May I have a refund then? Also no. Proceeded to tell me that it is up to the parents discretion and that they would give me vouchers to another movie when I know that this is the last weekend they are open until next year. The audacity and attitude of a woman who is more preoccupied with ego than grace, self-righteousness, than customer service and wants to place greed over being polite and kind; can be penny wise and pound foolish and she can reap what she sows through customer feedback and subsequent public opinion. I won't ever patronize this business again based solely upon this woman's attitude and demeanor. Keepy measly $26 and invest it in some common sense.

Pre-movie parents are relaxed, kids a running about enjoying the outdoors and when it's time for the movie you settle into you lawn chair or kick back in the bed of your pickup truck. It has a big screen feel with the outdoor elements all around you. Magical sunsets or spooky clouds and mist roll in to make the viewing experience even more thrilling. Sound is delivered over a radio channel, so I recommend bringing an external speaker and stand alone radio. The car radio is okay but can be problematic if it keeps shuttling off or the rear speakers are not good. The staff is fun and concessions are average. Bug spray is recommended. I truly enjoy the drive-in experience as a wonderful nostalgic summertime activity. Hopefully drive-ins will never totally disappear.
