Overall: 3.5/5 [dine in] [[HIGHLIGHT]]This theater is in a great location and is always clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They also validate parking at the McBee garage which is a nice perk. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The seats are a bit older than the Lakeline location and don't seem to recline as much, but the drinks come out faster here.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They also have a nice upstairs outdoor patio to hang out on.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We got the boneless wings with fries ($18.25). The fries were alright but the wings were not good, the taste and flavor just weren't for me. The portion was also pretty small for the price. read more

It's amazing how much private equity can sh*tify something up so badly that you can't even recognize the original business anymore. Needless to say a lot has changed since our last review of this Alamo location from 2017! Even though we hadn't written updated reviews, we nonetheless noticed (of course) that Alamo had consistently gotten worse over the years. However, our experience last week has confirmed that we will never ever be back here again. This place is the pits. The only reason we went is because someone got us a gift card. We bought our tickets, and there was a $7 "convenience fee" like we are in 1998. But then, we get to the theatre, and--JOKE'S ON US because we had no idea that this had happened--you do everything through a QR now. Are you kidding??? How much soul can you suction out of a business!?! The whole point of this whole enterprise was to use the fun little pencils, write your order down, and have the charming experience of HUMAN INTERACTION. Now, you have your phone out--yes, haha that they mention the irony after the bazillion ads we had to sit through!--and there is an automatic 18% tip included. Wowza! We were so disgusted that we only ordered beers. Our daughter had to get TWO kids pizzas because the portions were so small. The menu is way more limited and even more overpriced than one could imagine. Hope you liked Toy Story 5! Oh, AND FYI, if you forget to close out your tab, they add a 5% ADDITIONAL tip within 20 minutes of the movie closing. I mean, this place truly, truly hates its customers. And what greets you at the main desk? A Gen Z'er on her phone the entire time who can't be bothered to look up when folks come and go. We hate this place so much and we are SO excited for the day that we hear that they will have to shutter their doors because, honestly, no business deserves to go under more than this one. 1 star only because we can't give zero. read more

As we already know, Alamo has become the worst theater in the city, losing all care for customer service and experience. I had a gift card, which I wanted to use to purchase tickets - simple. I checked the balance before attempting to purchase to confirm I had enough to buy the tickets - ok. I selected a movie, entered my gift card information, and it failed. Checking my card balance, it showed as having been charged, but I did not get any ticket email confirmation. What ensued was an aggravating interaction with multiple theater managers (Mueller and Slaughter), where situation, transaction history, and claims were explained, and absolutely zero attempt on Alamo's part to provide any reasonable level of customer service to remediate the issue. Mind you, the back and forth time and effort spent to remediate this issue, which comes out to not even $50, was more important to them than: 1. Admitting that they made a mistake and refunding me 2. Declaring I may be unintentionally mistaken, and provide good customer service with free tickets to show good intention to keep a customer 3. Declaring I AM wrong [and stop trying to scam them? over $50?] and tell me they're not going to do anything. (does this happen that often that this is a huge concern) Instead, they care more about "being right" than keeping a customer. Surely they MUST know that they earn more money from concessions than the movie ticket, right? Right? Good job, Zack Kirk and Mario Alvarado from Alamo. read more

New theatre name: Matthew McConaughey Cinema & I'm here for it! Still enjoy seeing movies here even though the Alamo chain business practices with employees is questionable. Let's hope they get their sh*t together and do right by their workers. Especially now that MM's name graces the venue. read more

This was my first time watching a movie at Alamo Drafthouse Mueller. [[HIGHLIGHT]]While this was one of the smaller theatres I have frequented, it felt cozy and intimate.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] You can order food and drinks via a QR code at your seat, which is a nice perk. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I chose our seats and in retrospect, I should have selected seats in a higher row. The auditorium did not have a steep incline as I anticipated, however, the seats were fine[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Unfortunately, I am not a fan of the communal bathrooms, which is the design at the Alamo Drafthouse.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The good news is that you have a urinal or restroom option with associated signage. Like all movie theatres, the food and drinks are overpriced. In addition, you have pay a 18% service charge along with a tip. I ordered bottomless popcorn and unsweet tea and paid over $20. Interestingly, the popcorn came in a metal bowl...perhaps a sustainability measure. The popcorn was fresh and buttery. Now for the best part...we went to see the Devil Wear Prada 2. Amazing movie with many salient themes... as a side note, I know every single line of the original Devil Wears Prada. Definitely will be watching this movie again... read more

I've always enjoyed coming to Alamo Drafthouse Mueller, but my most recent visit left me pretty disappointed. I have had some really amazing experiences here coming to movie screenings over the years. You can order the tickets on the Alamo app but they charge a service fee that was nearly $7 for 3 tickets. So I waited until I got to the theater to purchase the tickets for our group. We went on Tuesday for $7 movie tickets. When someone in our party inadvertently bought an extra ticket, the staff quickly refunded my purchase and transferred the seat. The customer service here is great! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The theaters are all upstairs and they have reclining seats. The seats do not recline back as far as I would like, but they are comfortable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We got to pick out our seats when purchasing the tickets. The new phone-based ordering system really takes away from the experience. One of the things that made Alamo special was the easy, low-disruption way of ordering during the movie. Now, having to use your phone feels distracting and honestly a bit inconvenient especially in a dark theater where you're trying to stay immersed in the film. On top of that, the added 18% service charge feels excessive, especially since the level of service has shifted more onto the customer with the new system. It doesn't quite add up. To make matters worse, the food prices have noticeably gone up. I don't mind paying for quality, but with the higher prices, added fees, and a less seamless experience, it just doesn't feel like the same value anymore. I spent nearly $40 for a Parmesan herb popcorn and a watermelon mezcal margarita. That is dinner pricing for movie concessions. I really hope they reconsider some of these changes, because this used to be one of my go-to theaters in Austin. Now I feel like I am being nicked and dimed for every little thing. If you don't close out your bill within 20 minutes, they auto close your tab and add 5% tip on top of the 18% service charge. This is really getting ridiculous and pricing people out. read more

WARNING: if you show up 2 minutes late to a movie, even during the beginning advertisements, you'll get told you're not allowed in. Never in my life have I come across such a bullshit rule. They have officially lost a customer. Drove 20 minutes to show up for a 9:45 am showing on a Sunday, got stuck in the farmers market traffic, and was told we were "close". No grace given. read more

Love the concept as for me saves time to do dinner with the movie. Alamo Drafthouse is great. The the tater provided validated parking at the garage for 3.5 hours which is nice. This gives plenty of time before and after the movie. I've been several times typically buying my ticket day of in the Alamo app. Super easy to walk up the stairs to the theaters once you arrive and head straight to your seat. Tickets are checked once sat and be ready to provide a card for payment. Ordering is easy and for the most part comes out quick. I'm in love with their popcorn! The clarified butter really makes a difference. Pepperoni pizza is a fav as well all though sometimes the crust can't be hit or miss in the middle. Chicken sandwich also good and the soft baked pretzel. Sweet tea all the way! Tickets are dropped during the last 15-20 min. Sign and then you're on you way. read more

As a theater itself, this place is fine. The food here is kind of sub par. The mozzarella sticks were just okay and the fish tacos were not that great. It had too much pickled onions and lotta lime. The breaded fish was kind of thin and not great breading. I won't order the tacos again. They also seemed to have forgotten our food 58 mins into the movie and we had to press the button to chase the order. The slushies though, were really good. Whiskey and banana chocolate go together really well. Best thing to do is eat before or after the movie. Cause there are a lot of better food places a walk away......unless the company event is paying for everything. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I like going to Alamo for their strict no phones, no distractions, and no small kids policies.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The fact that you can order actual food and drinks is great too, I like their boozy shakes. While watching F1 movie today, we had Whiskey Banana Split Shake and Cold Brew Turbo Shake. Taking one star off because we didn't get our food order for a little over an hour since ordering. Had to remind a service staff member about our food. Mozzarella sticks were just okay, arrived warm, not hot. Fish tacos were pretty good but a little overload on onions. read more

The service was terrible. The waiter seemed annoyed by me asking for popcorn. Also, I am hearing impaired and they were "out" of functioning closed caption devices so the one he provided was broken. I will definitely be contacting corporate for this ADA violation. read more

I could have sworn I wrote a review for this place. Especially since I am in this area quite a lot. Oddly no. Well, it's a fine Alamo. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's clean with the standard food.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They do validate parking which is fantastic. However the most recent time I've gone they've switched to QR codes and cell phone ordering rather than have a person take your order. Um I hate it. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Thankfully I didn't need to order, but there were definitely people ordering during the movie and not turning their brightness down. Oddly that was more distracting than having a server pop in and out.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My friend who came with me said it was finicky too! At the end of the film the app/program/whatever would not pull up her tab to let her pay! We had to wait while she refreshed several times before she got her total and could close out. She said it kept telling her that her movie was over? I don't really know. Took a star off for not having smoothly functioning software, and then forcing folks to use it. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]An always great theatre with amazing atmosphere and staff.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] That being said, I want to highlight, particularly, how genius the new QR ordering system is. Although my phone has trouble picking up the dimly lit code, it's simple enough to ask a nearby patron to shine their phone light for me. Easy peasy! The exposition doesn't matter to most of us anyway. There is, however, a new problem unique to the Mueller location! The cell service is abysmal in Mueller, and Alamo Drafthouse's elegant solution is to graciously funnel guests onto their unencrypted public wifi network. To me, this shows a indominable commitment to helping the tech-savvy less fortunate. It's now easier than ever for some of the more determined patrons to access the financial information of anyone ordering this way (so everyone!). As someone who loves to donate but hates receiving praise for it, I really appreciate a system that may allow people more deserving than me to benefit from my bank card details anonymously. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Another thing, I LOVE the new layer of audience participation Alamo has introduced by inviting patrons to police one another with their cell phones during the movie.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It's nice when everyone gets to be both the problem and the solution. Finally, nothing completes the premium experience like getting a text from Alamo in the third act reminding me to close my tab. I've always felt the emotional climax of a film could use a small, administrative, interruption. 10 billion stars if I could. Ps. I got a great idea I'm willing to share... We should fully replace the pre-show anti-talking & texting warning with a live customer satisfaction survey everyone has to complete on their phones before the movie even starts. Feedback is invaluable. read more

No service. I tried to order a glass of using their online app. It wanted all my info including my card number to enter my order. I walked to the kitchen and a nice man made me a water. I don't purchase anything there any more since they added the 18% tip to everything. I tip well for service, but the first time I was there after the tip tax (before QR hell) it took 20 minutes to get a glass of water. read more

"Don't use your phone to distract people from the experience unless it is to give us money." Like others have said, Alamo used to be a gem. Now it is all about the money. 18% automatic gratuity was outrageous to start with (despite level of service), and then to top it off with 5% if you don't close out your tab within 20 minutes = absurd. They have restaurant prices for movie theater food. Although I live in the neighborhood, I'll drive to the Domain to IPIC anything I want to see going forward. You guys really blew it. Lame. read more

This is the first negative review I have ever left in my life (truly). I used to adore this place, but after my experience Saturday night I will not be returning to it or any other Alamo Drafthouse, which honestly breaks my heart to say. New ordering system is annoying and I'm still in shock that we are required to pull out our phone during any moment of the Alamo experience. I want the paper and pencils back please. And the humans. But mostly the prices - good Lord. My son ordered a dr.Pepper and the cost was $7. We assumed it was for bottomless...which would have still been way too much. But no! We were charged $7 for each and every Dr. Pepper he drank. The pizza was disgusting and $17.50 and they charged me $9 for a beer that I never received. I don't mind paying for great experiences. Experiences are what I love to spend my money on! But the magic is completely and corporately gone from Alamo. $200 for myself and one child to see a movie. I am still in shock. read more

I used to really like coming here, but the management has taken all the charm out of the experience. I was 'greeted' by a grump hipster who could barely bother to muster a greeting. I asked 2 questions and he seemed really put out by that. Apparently they just want everyone to shut up and just scan QR codes and don't believe in human interaction anymore. I do not understand why that person was employed there. The whole ordering from QR codes from one's phone sucks too, I don't want to be looking at my phone while watching the movie. Plus I just don't think it's friendly or accessible to older people. They really need to bring back the physical menu, real waitstaff, etc. Plus I don't like having to pay 18% service fee to an anonymous person and then be expected to also leave a tip. They really need to get it together or I fear people will stop going, read more

I hate to do this. I love love love Alamo! For movie experiences it's always great. Like the rest of the reviews, I'm not a fan of QR code. Like what if our phones aren't fully charged. The 18 percent service fee is wild. I think that's a lot to ask for if one is not pleasant to deal with. Fortunately I've had great service there and always tip very good. I just think that if a tip is an act of generosity, why give them more than the least of asking tip as a required service fee. Lastly, the food was not good. It's used to be better but it seemed like it was made in house for sure but for the prices I'm sure the ingredients are probably not well sourced. The loaded fries were better before. My man's old fashioned was a bit watered down and so was my mezcal watermelon margarita. I wouldn't buy a drink there. I'd probably grab a drink in the area prior, within walking distance. I love what Alamo does for film and I know that they're trying. I got distracted trying to place an order for water that I missed a scene of the film we were watching. I hate to shine a light with another phone to scan the QR code. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is always clean a neat.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Love Alamo. I'll go back I'll just be aware of keeping my phone charged. Parking validation is great. Using phone for parking garage QR code, then for validation, then for tickets if you purchase online, then to order may seem like a great convenience but also a lot of phone use and knowing you'd need your phone charged even if you're in a rush or already out and about. Originally 3 stars but I'll do 4 for what you do with film read more

So me and my family went to this place to see the Mario Galaxy movie For two adults and two kids we ended up spending around $180 which would have been fine had it been worth it tickets were $78 and some change food/drinks were $102 we don't mind paying higher prices it's the fact that the portions and quality certainly wasn't worth $102.19 an 18% service fee is automatically added no mater what which also fine had the service been worth it first of all no physical menu was available we all ended up ordering off my phone which proved to be difficult in a place where we're supposed to be quite not to mention my husbands phone camera is busted so he had no way to access the menu on his own because your required to scan a QR code to do so my phone camera is also messed up the light sensor is going out so I had to turn on my husbands flash light just so my camera would stop flashing purple long enough to be able to scan the code which took a while to get it to cooperate needles to say making everything digital did not make our experience easier for most people that would work, but for people in special situations like ours it was a hassle Down to the service when you order digitally, you have the ability to pick your group of tables and as you're ordering, whatever you order is assigned to a seat even when we assigned items to a seat like mine and my husband's both got the fries my children got candy popcorn and drinks. They still kept putting food on the wrong tables and because it's a movie theater it's dark so it's hard to see so on mine and my husband's french fries got swapped around. The guy couldn't tell me which one was supposed to be mine and which ones was supposed to be his mine had added avocado. My husband doesn't like avocado. Same with the drinks both drinks got delivered to my table I asked, which was which and the guy was like. Oh I'm not sure you're gonna have to try them. He got Dr Pepper. I got sweet tea. They looked pretty identical under the dark lighting. So service didn't do their job correctly yet they automatically get an 18% ($14.40 for our bill) going towards them. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Tables were sticky and felt unclean our napkins quite literally were getting stuck to the table[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]], One of the ladies who ended up delivering the sweet tea I ordered was a little rude when I let her know that the tea that I got was not sweet. She asked me if I wanted a sugar caddy. I said no I would just like the sweet tea and she got an attitude with me gave me and annoyed look and said "so you want me to take it back?" and I said yes I'd like an exchange for a sweet tea. She brought me back tea that tasted exactly like the first one completely unsweet so I either they do not make sweet tea or they do not put a bunch of sweetener in their sweet tea (I'm telling you there is no way there was any sugar added to that tea) and expect you to sweeten yourself with sugar packets which I personally don't like I prefer my sugar to be completely melted and infused into the tea hence why I order it sweet and not unsweet on to the food (way over priced for our portions we received in my opinion candy my kids got was $7 each for the small box you could get at a convenience store for $3each my husband's 7oz margarita was $13.50 for one single drink The only thing that ended up being worth the price that we paid was the bottomless popcorn and while clearly it's bottomless so you get one single bowl for six bucks or you can get 20 bowls for six bucks. Depends on how much you eat. There was no button on the system to refill our waters so we were never able to even ask for refills for that. And the main things that my husband got and I got instead of ordering an entrée we both ordered an appetizer which was the loaded fries his ended up being 14 and some change. Mine was 1750 cause I had avocado added even for the base price of $14. I would've expected a much larger portion. (for comparison it was probably the size of a half order of Texas cheese fries you'd get at Chili's and twice the price) side of ranch, not included cost extra [[HIGHLIGHT]]the seats are worn out and they're supposed to recline, but they barely move[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] needles to say we're not happy with the experience compared to the price for that much money you expect things to be done correctly and larger portions and better conditions Will be looking at a different theater next time we look into going to see a movie movie was cool but that was just about it. Tickets were not worth $78. Food was not worth 102 and given the choice of the tip percentage I certainly don't think 18% should be given for that level of service. read more

I had quite the negative experience seeing the Odyssey at the Mueller Alamo Drafthouse. I've been a couple times since the switch to phone ordering. The food quality seemed to diminish since the change, but I have been going for years and had always enjoyed the location so wanted to continue going. However, tonight was not the case. My boyfriend never got his drink he ordered, so I let him know he could alert them on the app that it never came. I must have said 10 words max in a whisper. About twenty minutes later a manager came up to us and asked us if we needed anything in a curt tone and said we'd get just one warning about talking in the theater. This was frustrating since if the paper was still available, I wouldn't have had to alert my boyfriend about the app. I'm shocked though that people complained over a short whisper. I'd hate to think it was a homophobic reaction since I kissed my boyfriend on the cheek as well when I whispered. Needless to say, I won't be going back to the Alamo Drafthouse. I find it odd I've been going for years and the first time I had such an incident was so soon after their mgmt/policy changes. I didn't appreciate being disrespected after ordering 100 dollars worth of tickets and food. I hope to find a more local theater to support instead. read more

The new ordering system at Alamo takes longer, is more distracting, and is way more frustrating to use. Since there's no cell signal in the theater you have to enter your credit card info over their UNSECURED network. We got to the movie early but by the time I got the clunky ordering system figured out, I missed the first 10 minutes of the movie. Moving the credit card transaction work and time to the customer is such a lame change and a transparent way the new ownership is cutting costs at the film goers' expense. To make it worse, Alamo food prices have jumped a lot this year. Chicken fingers are $22 and they're having quality control issues like an $18 bowl of popcorn that we couldn't eat because the chili powder on it was so fine and free floating that it kept getting in our nose and throat and choking us. Had similar popcorn in the past that was great. The staff said it must not have had enough butter to make the powder stick and did offer to refund it. The icing on the cake was that I had my ringer off as one should have during a movie, so 30 or 40 minutes after the movie was over noticed a text saying I had 20 minutes after the movie was over to close my tab, otherwise it would be closed for me and a 5% gratuity would be added. I generally tip a little over the gratuity, but it would have been cool to know about the automatically added tip BEFORE the transaction so it could be my choice. All these issues left me feeling pretty burned by the changes and frankly by the new ownership. Alamo used to be one of my favorite things about Austin--I've been going since I moved here in 2000. What a shame it's been so thoroughly ruined. Hopefully an Austinite opens a competitor that prioritizes the customer instead of maximizing profits. Way to screw up a beloved Austin icon. read more

I haven't gone in a couple of years. Not happy with the menu prices or the food quality now. Used to go regularly, but boy things have changed. $50 for 3 popcorns, a shake and fried pickles. Oh, they automatically add 18% service fee (not counting tip) to your bill as well. Fun huh? The popcorn was stale and cold. I let the waitress know and she brought back more of the same horrible popcorn. Microwave popcorn tastes better. The guy next to me ordered a pizza for him and his girl. He complained to the waitress that the pizza was so small for the price, he was disappointed. He thought for the price it was a pizza for two people. It was like a kids pizza and they were like $18. Lets see how long they stay open with this price gouging. I will never go back again. read more

Ridiculous with the new ordering system. Switch it back. Pay your servers. At the very least, remove the 18% service fee because who am I servicing? The private equity of the company? The CEO's pockets? Alamo used to be my go to, but now I'm okay. Won't see another dollar until online ordering during the movie is removed and gone for good. read more

The QR Food Order and auto tipping at the end is horrible. My movie finished and I got the link to "close out" or I would pay an auto 5% tip. I closed out and saw that I was still charged a 1% tip. I had no control over the tip amount. I asked the guy at the front desk and he was clueless. I won't be ordering food/or "free" water anymore. I am a member of Alamo Drafthouse and get the 10% off food and beverage but that discount quickly disappears with all the fees they auto charge and you have no option to adjust. read more

First off, this is not a stand-alone theater, and the signage from the sidewalk level isn't dynamic. That out of the way, this is a terrific Alamo. Garage parking is validated for you. Gold Star! I received great service from the employee at the entrance, as well as Daniel, my server. Only one theater is on the ground floor, so spaces to wait for the majority of the movies are upstairs, both as couches as well as table seating outside, around the corner of the theater on a patio. The movie seats are very comfortable, and the popcorn is hot and sloppy with butter. And, as to be expected, the "behave yourself or get kicked out" warnings are great fun. If this location is in your hood, or the movie you want is only at this Alamo location, you'll be happy. read more

An automatic 18% gratuity is added when you order food or drinks. Parking gets validated for up to 4 hours when you park in the garage connected to it.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Great place to relax in a leather recliner and watch a movie[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Come check this place out

This week was the first time I've visited an Alamo Drafthouse theater in Austin. I've watched many recent movies at home because I've gotten tired of getting into fights with loud talkers and other people that cannot restrain their own behavior in public. At this theater, the seats and aisles are kept immaculate and boorish rubes are shown the exit quickly. Viewing movies on the big screen is a very different experience than watching at home, and it was great to be able to enjoy the movie in clean, quiet surroundings. The food service is great too. The friendly attendant was quick to take orders and get them back to us; bottomless popcorn is a winner. It's well worth the price of admission to be able to relax in this beautiful theater. I hope that the Sony acquisition will mean this theater continues intact for a long time. Highly recommended. read more

This new Alamo location has a great vibe. The menu is the same as you'd find at other Austin alamo locations (not anything spectacular but a great drinks list if you're into it). This new spot has a really great bar area - the decor is funhouse style and really well executed. They validate parking in the garage for up to 4 hours so you don't have to stress about finding a spot. Service was friendly and quick - we had our order taken promptly and as with any Alamo, a written ticket can add to your tab at any point. Alamo is a great place to see films in general and this is a fine new addition to their other spots across Austin. read more

This is a great location in a cool neighborhood with plenty to do and see. The parking garage is very convenient since parking in Mueller is tricky. They validate your parking for the garage as well. The first floor consists of a ticket booth and bar only. The bar is carnival themed and feels like a movie set itself. The theme continues up the stairs and down the hallway where the theaters are until suddenly there is a spaceship on the ceiling. Once inside, the theaters are clean, seats comfortable and service was nice. The herb and parmesan popcorn is a must to split. read more

I could only have a few handful before I asked the server if she could just switch it out for regular popcorn. I told her she didn't have to change it on the tab since it was a bad choice on my part. She was super kind about it and brought another bowl back out. She even asked if I wanted butter on this bowl, and i decided not, which was a good choice. The popcorn was just regular movie popcorn so I think the bottomless is def a good option. My friend got the churro flavor and that one was pretty good, very sweet. We shared a carnivore pizza and it was decent. Honestly, it was just so expensive for a tiny, thin pizza. It's smaller than a pizza from mod or pizza press for reference. We will probably try different food options next time. My partner got the 512 IPA and agreed that it was very hoppy lol. Our friend got a whiskey banana split shake and said she liked it. Some other friends there got chocolate shakes and said they were really good. You can also just ask for a glass of water with ice and they can do that! Super good option. Spent $50 on food including the 18% gratuity + $32 on tickets. Not terrible so we would definitely come back here rather than other theaters. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It seems like they weren't strict on no talking since it was a silly movie.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Great first experience at an Alamo Drafthouse. read more

Very rude staff. This place used to be my go-to. After 2020 a lot of businesses were affected. Perhaps things will improve there

This was my first time visiting and I had a great experience! Firstly parking is validated so that's great. The interior is beautiful decorated, I absolutely loved that beautiful beauty and the beast poster and wish I could get one! The chairs recline, the theatre seemed pretty clean and the ordering service was pretty cool. I was worried it would disturb the experience but it did not! The strawberry shake was delicious as were the loaded fries though they were definitely too salty. Our serve Blake was super helpful and we had a good experience! The area outside is lit beautifully so this would be a very nice date night. We came to watch Air which was a great movie and had us engrossed the whole time. read more
