  It's a great experience! They really make sure that you have a good view of the screen. Also, the bathrooms are surprisingly very clean!

  Kind of sketchy looking when you show up here first, but it’s a really cool place. Radio sound quality is good. Real nice place for a date or family outing.

  If you care anything about classic Americana this is the place to be. Dog friendly and they sell drinks. What more do you need?

  Amazing experience. Went to see The Outsiders, what a great night! Aside from watching a fine movie at a great location, they also offer a open fire for toasting s'mores and a licensed bar with a good selection of beers.

  Great throwback to yesteryear. The drive in experience is fun and nostalgic. Movies that are shown are improving everyday. They still have some kinks to work out; crowd and noise control (was a kids movie though), 16x9 wide screen movies are being scaled down to fit on a 4x3 screen, time it takes to check in and park. But I'm sure with time they will sort these things out. Great to have something like this for the family.

  I expect that this place will only get better. I like the new location. Food line is pretty slow. Could use a little landscaping close to the screen and some tidying up, but they're in a new location, so it's forgivable. Would like to see some more recent movie choices rather than just classics/oldies. Also, the double features often don't seem well grouped (ie. I'm only interested in one or the other movies). Love having a place like this.

  This little gem just on the fringe of Austin is such a cool & eclectic experience!
  My darling family of 4 loaded up our SUV with blankets, chairs, small picnic table, fresh pressure cooked pulled pork & slaw and headed out for the evening to see some fantastic movies in a double feature.
  We were greeted warmly by the owner as he checked our reservation & guided us to a perfect spot under large oak trees where we could park it for the evening with the gate lifted.
  Everything was set up within a few min and our kids were off bounding through the expansive green yard to play toss games, frisbee & meet other kids their age. We set up the back of the car like a bed and my husband and I enjoyed date night on the chairs drinking good margaritas! (It's BYOB, so be reasonable with behavior or they'll kick you out)
  We served up dinner, shared with some neighbors, visited concessions where we grabbed popcorn, Harry Potter chocolate frogs & some wizardly jelly beans!
  The kids fell asleep in the car after the first movie giving us a great second movie date night.
  The facilities were spectacularly clean, the staff friendly & helpful and everything was coming up roses all evening!
  BEST FAMILY DATE NIGHT EVER!

  I like the concept of the place. Dinner and show like the olden days, makes going to the cinema exciting again. I didn't give it 4 stars b/c its just a little strange to have your waiter crawling around to take orders etc. throughout the entire movie. Although this allows everyone with constant drinks and snacks. It depends what you order but for the most part the snacks and drinks are best to stick to.

  Not enough information like approx date you will open. I assume 2017 will be the year and where are you looking to have it. Like to know if the audio system will be tops. Would like to let my grandkids experience with what I grew up but better. I have pleasant memories of driving movies . I also hope your prices will be reasonable and have Family Nights. Just an idea🤠

  This place is tight, BUT it's extraordinarily unfortunate that the FM transmission system they have in place isn't universal. Which essentially means you roll the dice paying for a ticket that's comparable to going to a real theater just to find that your scheduled make-out session with your partner is just looking at a big projector screen with moving parts... on mute. Other than that, it's totally worth spending way too much money.

  I had low expectations for this place. That is until i went there. It's actually very cool. My wife and i went with some friends here to watch Indiana Jones the lost ark and it was fun. You can buy food, snacks, or snow cones, they have chairs for you to sit in up front and a little picnic table. Their also a Pokémon gym for you Pokémon go players. The sounds a quality of the picture were good as well. Cool little place for a double date or a group event.

  Sit in your car, or on a folding chair. Bring friends. Order a box of junior mints from the fridge (chilled junior mints are the secret to happiness). Stay for the second flick in the double feature. This is a pure and wonderful drive-in experience made for folks who want something no other other theater in Austin can offer, and it is beautiful. Also, there are usually great discounts available on groupon, and you can get a pizza delivered.
