Try the movies here. They're organic.

preorder your seats so you don't have to wait in the theater. and if it's not crowded, leave a space so four of you aren't clumped together in an empty theater.

Reserved seating and cocktails! Perfect combo for a movie theater.
Ashley MowreyNovember 21, 2014
Sneak booze into the theater if you're on the right floor, the bar is too expensive and the wine too subpar.
jocelyn L.December 4, 2011
top floor: wine + movie + uber comfy seats. Splurge for it!

Beer w/ movie popcorn:-D :-D

It might not be obvious, but all upstairs seating, not just the balcony, permits adult beverages. New Belgium Abbey is a solid bet.
Melissa ReisorMay 9, 2015
Wine & beer is a must
Matthew BensleyJune 8, 2011
Definitely come early for a drink but don't accidentally skip the film. :-)
AlexandraSeptember 5, 2011
Great seats and yummy ice cream bites Bacetti.

Awesome movie theater you can drink at

Aim for cinema 1 or 2 and get the bar seats, such an awesome movie experience.
Anastasiia PerervaMay 11, 2015

no rowdy teenagers at the 21+ shows, but you will have to deal with quite a few hipsters
Cormac RiordanDecember 1, 2015
Simply the best.

Order tickets online, pick your seats, and get a bottle of wine.

If you are at SFIFS, smile at the volunteers, be nice :)

You can return your ticket up to 30 min into the show!

Relaxing movies with the booze!

Learn what movie came out the year you were born when carded by the bouncer

The trays fit in the cupholders! Like being at the drive-in or Mel's Diner

Drink a cocktail on the balcony.

WATCH OUT FOR MICE - that place has plenty. They are attracted by the food that is on the floor (popcorn and stuff), why don't they clean it? It's disgusting. Not going there anymore.

Be prepared to watch Wolf Of Wall Street for 3 hours. Because that's how long it lasts.

Gillian PedenApril 9, 2012
Bar isn't open Mon - Thurs which puts a small damper on the expected ambiance.
