Alamo Drafthouse Cinemas Laredo

All good, much needed in Laredo and alternate cinema option. Try the asian style chicken wings and loaded fries!

I was in town visiting for the week from Chicago and was so impressed with this theater that I saw 2 movies in one week here. Love the humor in everything and I also appreciate the idea of being able to sit back and have a cold beer, good food and watch great movies. enjoyed the awesome atmosphere as well.

This is a great place! I usually just order wings because they are deeelish, recently tried the royal burger… would recommend to any burger lover!

We’ve been going to The Drafthouse since it was a single theatre in Austin, so our expectations were pretty high. We were also thrilled that there was a Drafthouse in Laredo, my hometown!
Firstly, the good: excellent service from everyone! Servers, cashiers, were all nothing but helpful, upbeat, patient, you name it. Fantastic staff, bar none. The space is visually stunning, with high ceilings, smart red and black décor with old fashioned movie reels as accents, and a comprehensive listing of craft beers for the gourmet beer aficionados. The menu had impressive depth and the food was exemplary. Obviously no expense was spared on décor, food offerings, or sound quality, as the surround sound of the film was crisp, if not a tad overwhelmingly loud. All in all an amazing, handsome venue with top-​notch staff and great food.
The issue: This is he first ADH we’ve been too where they have designed the tables as one long piece of furniture with no divisions. This became a severe issue when we realized there was absolutely no way to get out of your seat to use the bathroom without having every single person stand up and MOVE. The space is so narrow there is just no other way and you’re luck if you don’t knock over someone’s food in the process due to the constricted space. I’m not sure if they assumed people would just hold it the entire film? But the suggestions is to arrive at least half an hour early to find seats and order, so that is a long time. My partner ended just sitting in one of the lower seats rather than interrupt our entire row again.
This was never an issue any of the other Alamo Drafthouses we’ve been to.
Our server Jarrod was nothing but lovely and helpful and did the best she could, in the middle of the movie, to let me know where my partner had sat down, and work with us to pay for our order together even if we weren’t seated together, in the end.
It’s a shame that such a fantastic space with great service was designed so poorly.
We’ll return because good service counts for a lot and we love to eat while we watch a film, but next time I think we’ll choose an aisle seat on the lower half of the theatre, since you are required to pick where you will be seated at the time you purchase tickets. We’ll just be better informed on following visits.

Wow, this definitely is a crappy representation of an Alamo Drafthouse. Apparently they’re too cheap to get the under table lamps working so they just leave the lights on in the theatre.
If that wasn’t bad enough to ruin «The Force Awakens», the entire theatre was sticky. So every time the servers walked by you could hear their shoes sticking to the floor.
If you like the Alamo Drafthouse chain and you’re hoping this will be like the others, you’re in for a lot of disappointment.

Outstanding service! The food is soooo darn good. I absolutely love this place! I love that there are no kids allowed after a certain time or according to movie ratings. I also think its great that Tuesday is designated baby day before 2 pm. What a great idea! I also love that there’s no talking tolerated during the movie, or else… This kind of theater chain is what we needed in Laredo. Genius! I’ve been here a total of 5 times and I’ve had the carnivore pizza (topped with hot sausage and bacon), blue cheese burger, chicken sandwich with goat cheese, macaroni and cheese with bacon, loaded fries, fried pickles, veggies with hummus, boozy shakes, and of course buttery popcorn (which is made fresh because it’s served warm) OMG! Everything is super yummy. I love how they sometimes have a special menu that goes with the movie. I love it so much I might just call for take out! The thing is I love watching movies but nothing tops having a glass of red wine or a cold beer to go along with it. It’s so relaxing. Best experience ever at a cinema IMO. We moved from SA to Laredo 7 yrs ago and used to go to the Alamo Drafthouse cinema on 410 by Northstar mall, and now I’m just so thrilled they opened one here.

Best theater chain I have ever experienced! Full menu to choose from and plenty of themed movies to enjoy, I will never go to another theater!

Everything it’s awesome but be sure to take your warm-​ups this place is just freezing, we told the staff and never did anything about it, everybody was freezing in there !!! They called it alamo draft i sure order HOT COFFEE! !!! take a blanket or something

Went for the «soft opening» last night. Theater is beautiful. Picture on screen and sound is outstanding. We met Rick the manager, who was extremely helpful and friendly. Happy to see our favorite waitress from Carino’s, Anita was working there. Food was outstanding and prices extremely reasonable, especially because regular theatre food is SO EXPENSIVE. We loved it. We will be regulars at our new Alamo Drafthouse.
