    I absolutely love drive-in theaters, and I'm so happy we still have access to one. There's…read moresomething about watching a movie under the stars that brings so much nostalgia and creates a cozy experience you just can't get at a regular theater. I came for retro night and watched Grease and Dirty Dancing (not advertised on the sign, but if you know, you know). I grabbed some popcorn and nachos from the Starlight Concession Stand and just enjoyed the whole experience. I didn't find the bathroom, but honestly it wasn't a big deal and didn't take away from the night. If you've never been to a drive-in theater, I highly recommend going. It's such a fun experience and something worth keeping around.

    On a trip to Buffalo, my friend and I made sure to check out the Transit Drive-In, and it was such…read morea great experience! We went to see Weapons, and everyone at the theater was super friendly and welcoming. One of the best parts is that if your car doesn't have a radio, you can rent one from them (which I had to do, and it worked perfectly). The food was surprisingly good and very affordable, which made the night even better. I also love that they run multiple movies at the same time across different screens, so there's something for everyone. Plus, the double feature makes it such a great value: we saw Weapons and Superman back-to-back. It made for a long night, but definitely a fun one. I feel like it is hard to find drive-in theaters anymore, so it was so fun to be able to experience this and it gave the old-time vibes with new movies which was super fun. If you're in the Buffalo area, this drive-in is absolutely worth the trip!

    Let's start with what this theater gets right. The staff I interact with here tend to be a little…read moremore friendly than the other 3 Regals in the area. I Love, with a capital L, the little tables on the recliners. I wish all of the local theaters would adopt them. It seems silly, but they are one of the main reasons this is my most frequented theaters... don't judge me. Lol. Where are they middle of the road? Cleanliness can be hit or miss. Some stuff is a little outdated, but I do believe they are working on that, there were new chairs going in recently. The food menu is hit or miss. I feel like out of all of the Regals that are in the area, they seem to not have what I am looking for most often, some of that is because I am here the most, but some of that seems to be an ordering issue or maybe Regal forces certain menu layouts even if a theater doesn't have those offerings... I am looking at you elusive Tandoori Popcorn. Last, but not least, is something I'll mention, but won't dock them any stars for, the location. I never personally feel uncomfortable here, solo or with company. I have had 2 partners that have said they would come with me, but not alone. I have also witnessed a couple of fights here. In this theaters defense, they can't help where they are located or who is around. In addition, they do a good job keeping security officers here, and I do believe they take customer safety seriously. Security seems to be responsive and I have seen them do everything from deescalate someone in the lobby, to deal with chatty/loud movie goers. Usually they are just a quiet presence and everything is smooth. There are less and less theaters in the area as time passes, I recommend supporting any theaters you can.

We get there all you have to do Is scan an go to your seat. The staff here was super nice. We went during the afternoon, (cheapER).so was not busy. I totally loved you have a little tv table put your snack and drinks on as well. My only complaint was they need to do a better job cleaning between movies as there was tons of popcorn on my seat and little sticky. But we were lucky movie was not full so we moved down a bit. I definitely missed being in the theatre for sure. Not a cheap date anymore, but still enjoyable.

    Love the wide recliners: Heated seats at the push of a button!…read more The line for food and drinks moves quickly; it's even more efficient if tickets are purchased ahead of time through Fandango or the in-house membership. Movie trailers are ubiquitous so you can follow your interests. Lit parking lot, so no worries for night-time shows.

    And it's slipping. We bought tickets to the Odyssey today and there were ISSUES. Once the…read moretrailers started, it was obvious that the aspect was significantly off. Only two-thirds of the video was on screen. I got up and mentioned to a kid at the concessions stand who appeared to go up to the booth. However, over 10 minutes went by, nothing was done and everyone sat there "hoping" the actual movie wasn't going to be that way. When it was, we were moved to another theater with a lot fewer seats. When I mentioned there might not be enough seats I was told, "There are. There are 24 total." He was right but it was going to tough for groups to still sit together as the room was barely the size of a screening room in a fancy house. Fully half of the theater was less than 10' from the screen that was half the size of what we started with. I didn't feel the inconvenience was MY fault, so I just asked for my money back. Up front, no one blames the kids that got thrown out into the public because I didn't see a manager there, at least not one that identified themselves. We'll probably be back but today was a BAD look.
