Food: Tasty, but pricey indulgences

At Alamo Drafthouse, the satisfaction of munching on the generous Bottomless Popcorn or the amazing Queso & Chips with Beef is often offset by the hefty price tag. The notable Fried Chicken Sandwich, however, brings some redemption with its potent flavor. The mixed bag of taste, with some instances of mediocre or stale food, leaves room for improvement, even as its commendable variety, from typical treats to full entrees, cushions the blow somewhat.

  • Great Variety

    Menu selection is huge, includes typical treats to full entrees.

  • Okay Taste

    Food quality varies, from delicious to average; experiences differ.

  • Low Quality

    One review complained food was kinda stale, affecting freshness.
