If this is true, why does virtually every theater I've been to in the last 5 years serve craft beer and cocktails?

- m23khan 7y agodid you go to cineplex or iMAX? Those are the ones I am talking about. Otherwise, I dunno, maybe the locality/jurisdiction/state you live may have laws allowing for alcohol in cinemas.

- Larrikin 7y agoEvery theater I've been to in Chicago has had alcohol, often times full bars. The cheap student targeted ones with the lumpy seats and the fancy off Michigan Avenue ones as well.
- madrox 7y agoIn an attempt to get those audiences, especially in major cities like SF that don't have a huge underage population. However, that's far and away not the norm when you think about the world overall.
- realityking 7y ago> when you think about the world overall I’d wager this is a US specific thing due to the heavy regulation of servings alcohol. One Europe even McDonalds and Disneyland serve alcoholic drinks, you’d be hard pressed to find a movie theater that doesn’t.
- UncleMeat 7y agoBecause you live in a hip city and seek out those theaters? Of the six or so theaters in driving distance from my (including indie ones), none serve alcohol.
- chrisseaton 7y agoI don’t think I’ve ever been to a cinema that didn’t serve alcohol - those concessions are how they make most of their money apparently.
- dagw 7y agoDo you mean that there is a bar attached to the cinema where you can grab a beer before/after the movie, or that you can buy a beer to actually bring into the theatre a drink while watching the movie?
