Review of Alamo Drafthouse Cinemas

Saw a "master pancake" movie with new friends. It'...

Saw a "master pancake" movie with new friends. It's basically a riff tracks or mst3k movie where the comedians are actually at the theater. They also did a breakaway skit about 3/4ths of the way through the movie which was odd but funny. All in all, a fun experience.

I guess the theater was some sort of historic place on 6th Street. Now it's an Alamo with 2 theaters. I kinda wish they had seating and a few cocktail tables in the lobby so that we could hang out before/after the movie, but then it's also on 6th Street so there's plenty of that in the area, and they probably don't want a bunch of people stopping for drinks and hanging out too long. Either way it would be an improvement imo.

I'll likely be back, but there are more Alamo locations that are more convenient, larger and with way better parking. But for a night out on the town, this is a pretty good place to catch a show and continue the night.
