We went to an actual movie theater yesterday for the first time in several years. We went to a new place, Flix-Brewhouse. It is totally different than any theater I have ever been to before. It is a full on brewery, that makes the beer right there. Very upscale, not a typical movie theater.
We bought our tickets, and the picked the seats online, so no ticket booth, just walk in, and show a QR code on the phone, and go sit down in a super comfortable chair with an electric foot rest that comes up silently. There are tables that rotate out of the way, and you sit down, and rotate the table back. A waiter comes over, and takes out initial order of popcorn, and my wife got a diet soda, I got water.
When he brought that I asked about the beer. I looked through the wide selection of draw beer, and made my pick before the movie started, and wrote that on a notepad they provide with a pen they provide. About 45 minutes before the movie ended, I pushed a button, and he came and picked up the order, and brought it back a minute later.
I enjoyed a nice wheat pop, feet up, Dolbly 7.1 great sound, and watched the last part of Top Gun. The popcorn was excellent. They have a selection of complete meals, wings, snacks, or a full bar for mixed drinks. The overall atmosphere was far more upscale restaurant than a movie theater.
We will go back.The prices were comparable to other movie theaters, with the expected inflation of today.
