Alamo Drafthouse is my Absolute Favorite movie theater brand ever. The Alamo Drafthouse Cinema New Mission is the best movie theater in San Francisco by far. Located at 2550 Mission Street in the Mission District, Alamo is easily accessible via public transit (Bart or Muni). One of my favorite things about Alamo is their free movie rewards program entitled Victory Rewards. It’s easy to sign up, and you get points for every movie you see. Their are tiers to the Victory Rewards program and the higher you go (more movies you see), the better the rewards. Also, all Victory members get a free movie ticket on their birthday. One of my other favorite things about Alamo are the Terror Tuesday and Weird Wednesday films. These are late night movies (10 pm - 12 am), normally classics movies, which are perfect for any cinephile, and the tickets are half price ($6 - 8). Lastly, what sets Alamo apart is the Gourmet food that they serve during the movies. You can still get your basic movie food like popcorn and soda, but, you can also get milkshakes, alcoholic beverages, and movie inspired dishes. If you’re not in a movie mood, you could also visit their in house bar, “Bear vs. Bull.” You can get a cosmopolitan, jack on rocks, or any of your favorite drinks while you chat in an intimate movie environment. You’ll find classic and large Bruce Lee movie posters plastered over the lobby, which is an awesome touch! Overall, this is a GREAT PLACE to visit.

My friends and I stop over to this cinema house. We found it nice and worth it to hang out and have fun. The staff was very entertaining, pleasant, and nice towards me. Even the seats of the cinema house were properly arranged. Also, the screen was too big and extreme loudness. We greatly enjoyed it. Thank you. We will come back!

The atmosphere here is pretty great at night. Very contemporary. The prices are pretty high for a movie, but youre basically paying for pretty views. the inside of the movie theatre is standard, although I was thrown back at how distant the first couple rows are from the screen, a HUGE space. loved the outside, was okay with the inside. Good quality sound and projection. I prefer Cinemarks thundering surround sound tho.

Astonishing movie place! I will visit this place again for sure. I am very happy that I found this movie house when I wanted to watch movies. Their people were very friendly, accommodating, and welcoming. I am comfortable and relax at this place. I would definitely recommend and refer your services to everyone without any hesitation.

Fantastic cinema! Retro design with modern amenities. Seats are very comfortable. Excellent acoustics and viewing angles from almost every seat.Seeing a movie here is a slightly different experience than an average theater since it is very centered around drinks and food. This is great because the food and drinks selection is unlike any theater Ive ever been to - there are all sorts of tasty meals and snacks as well as a robust craft beer menu and all sorts of fantastic other drinks - but I found it can also distract from the movie a little bit. There are also lights underneath every pair of seats that seem to not go out at all throughout the movie which was a bit distracting too. But for me the pros still vastly outweighed the cons and will definitely be coming back here to catch another flick!Last thing to note: the popcorn is an absolutely enormous serving and probably takes at least 2-3 people to finish it off!

My favorite movie theater in Los Angeles -- nay, the world.Spacious seating, courteous staff, unparalleled caramel corn, and amazing Q&As after many screenings. I have seen Steven Spielberg, Oprah Winfrey, and Rob Reiner speak there, to name just a few.If you become a member and earn enough points, they give you first dibs on special events and a free gift every month. So good.

This cinema is a real neighborhood gem. The atmosphere, the decor, the full service menu, and all the little touches they put really add to the moviegoing experience. You can really get immersed into a movie here.I thought the staff was very friendly and like ninjas whipping through the aisles, barely noticeable, providing food and refreshments to the patrons as discreet as possible. I watched Once Upon a Time in Hollywood in 70mm film and let me tell you, it was a welcome experience to see film grain again. I really enjoy this theater, the seats are plush, the angles are great, and the vibe that it gives off really make this a place worth visiting.

This place is impressive. I was surprised with how large it is inside. The bar atmosphere incites you in with its sultry attitude. Upstairs we enjoyed a few rounds of nostalgic pinball. Seating for the movie started about 30 min prior. I highly recommend arriving early. That way you can get familiar with the layout and order food/drinks. The food was and drinks were amazing. That Truffle popcorn is an absolute must! The vibe of the theater and patrons were perfect. If you find going to a typical theater a lackluster experience full of obnoxious people then try this place. You wont be disappointed.

What an amazing experience! Went to see Once Upon a Time in Hollywood in 70mm and have no regrets! The atmosphere is amazing and the staff is friendly & are knowledgeable about their beer lists! Try the Moonlight Lager, it was aces! Will definitely be back for another theatrical experience!

Love the old quirky atmosphere the theater emotes. Youre greeted with an old-school vibe. You have pinball machines on the second floor an arcade and dvd/record stand on the first. Love the idea of ordering food from your seat but often times the ushers weaving in and out can be distracting. The food is a bit pricey but what isnt in San Francisco. Overall, youll enjoy the uniqueness of this theater.

I picked Alamo to go and see Avengers: Endgame because I would be in this city on release weekend. I go to Alamo in my home state and this one was a bit different.The building is an old theater that has been rehabilitated back to its glory. There are only a few screens and they are the old theater setup instead of stadium seating. There is still enough room to walk and to get your food but I am reminded of when all theaters had the slanted floors.The place is beautiful. A lovely display of movie and theater history is there to tempt the pocketbook. Alamo also produces a limited edition book/magazine of major and historic movies. I spent some money there walking away with information on Jurassic Park, Avengers, and Star Trek.A lovely place and a good time. My food was prompt, fresh, hot, and tasty. My milkshake was divine as it always is at Alamo.

Evidently originated in Austin TX, this place brings back the vibe of the true Cinema experience with a slight twist on the convenience of food/drinks.We saw one of the only two directors cuts of The Abyss here for our first major feature. Decent beer and food selection.The second film we watched was a dark movie in the same genre of Heart of Darkness or Lord of The Flies called MONOS.Service for both was outstanding!I wish we had one of these in Chicago near west loop/Fulton market... *wink*

This is the best theater I have ever been to. It is historic and beautiful, the theaters are amazing, seats comfortable, food delicious, friendly staff, cool shop and bar. Always look out for the cool events they hold. I went to an even for the film Come To Daddy with the director and Elijah Wood and it was a blast.

Truly a great movie dinner drink experience. Each seat has a table and menu and the wait staff scuttle unobtrusively around to serve you drinks and great food during the show. Somehow with all that going on, its still quieter than on some theaters where kids and young adults behave rudely by taking loudly or even on their phones. Not here, very well organized and run. Seats are comfortable too. Really great experience.

Review №19

We were originally going to see a double feature here but the server at the bar (Bear vs. Bull) was a bit unfriendly before our first show. We were a little disappointed with that service and didn’t want to stay for several hours. The show itself (from the custom previews to the service during the film) was phenomenal. It was such a fun experience. The food was also top notch (an excellent thin crust pizza, the queso was unbelievable, and the milkshakes—we had the triple chocolate and malted Mexican vanilla—were divine). But our seats were a bit uncomfortable. The front row would be fine if you aren’t sitting on the far end. We will go back so long as we can get good seats and hopefully a different bar tender will be serving!

Great theater for movie enthusiasts! Loved the malted cold brew coffee milkshake! It may be interruptive for waiters to pass in front of you during the movie but I feel the overall experience is worth it!

Review №21

This is a classic old movie theatre that runs b/w movie clips and some newer ones that bridges decades of entertainment past to today. You order food/snack and drinks to your seat and get ready for the main feature. It is relaxing and winding down place after daily hustling and bustling busy tech-dominated life. In the middle of the Mission District, it offers great access without a need for driving to get there.

Awesome theater - Food/popcorn was wonderful - Great wine, beer & cocktail menu - Screen and setup of seating was terrific - You can buy their unlimited movie pass for $30/month if you see a lot of films - Excellent mix of regular in-theaters movies along with independent & foreign films. Love this Theater

Review №23

Im a darn big Alamo Drafthouse fan and every trip i do, I must go see a flick at the Alamo ! Whilst i enjoyed the funkiness of this location, you quickly realize its not a new locaiton they built, but a takeover of a really old theater. I actually wnhoyed the idea, untill we sat in the movie. My big and only complaint as how froggin hot it was. The theater itself is enormous so my guess is there AC was on the fritz. I can take some heat, but it was so unbearable we had to leave esrly and get a raincheck. The drinks were awesome and the food was so so

The servers, the ambience and the programs they have for movie lovers..Video Vortex, Terror Tuesday, Weird Wednesday.. and they sell merch thats unique and hard to find. They know my drink order the moment I sit down and I simply ADORE them all. The Theater 1 screen is big, great sound, and bright projection. The other theaters are smaller, each has up and down sides, but those also feel more like a personal hidden home movie theater (great cause less noise).

Attention all new parents! Alamo for All on Tuesdays is a lifesaver! I came here every Tuesday from my baby was two weeks old until he was 5 months, when I went back to work and it was the highlight of the week.Alamo Mission performs a crucial community function in providing a judgement free zone for new parents where you can still feel like you are a human being and part of the neighborhood.The staff is so helpful and courteous, food and drink selection is excellent, o always felt sure that Alamo had the best selections and I loved bringing friends and parents to the events and husband for date nights.I will never forget how happy these Tuesday’s made me and I’m eternally grateful to the kind staff.

Review №31

Since we discovered this place weve only been seeing movies here now. Any seat is a good seat. (Maybe not the first row if I dont have to). Theres plenty of room for each row, so your viewing experience is always good. Food portion is very generous. (Try the truffle oil popcorn.) A decent selection of beers and other drinks. (Try the key lime shake.) I would not recommend for families with young children as theres an absolutely no talking no texting rule enforced.

This place is a total geode. You wouldnt expect it from the surrounding neighborhood. The inside has been totally revamped, and the staff are so helpful and friendly. The food is good, and they are invested in giving you a real experience. Great movies, great food. Their milkshakes are amazing. They also have a robust selection of drinks. Recommend that you arrive early to get the lay of the land if you are a first timer. They really helped us out and we had an amazing time.

This place is awesome!! If the gorgeous details of the theater don’t tickle your fancy, maybe the bar will? Perhaps the book signings and Q&A’s they host might be better for you. We had a great time here. The service was prompt and without issue. They worked as a well oiled machine. Never missing a ticket or drink. I couldn’t get over the gorgeous building. You won’t regret watching a film here.

I’ve seen Phantom of the Opera thrice now. Twice in Alamo Drafthouse Cinema New Mission and once in the Ahmason. I Love this theater because it’s old school Hollywood glamor. This particular company (US touring) has been my favorite so far! I just went today and let me tell you. I was so very happy I got front row middle orchestra for this! It was magical and delightful.

Im glad Alamo made it out to the west. Unlike some of the Alamo establishments in the South, the re-purposed New Mission theater is spacious with comfortable seats (been to one that literally had bleacher seating). Offers a great selection of local beers to go along the movie. Book tickets online, pick the seats, and skip the line!

The bar / draft room is in the BACK of the building so walk in the glass theater door and walk towards the back of the building. The Drafthouse is the SAME place as the Bear v Bull bar, so dont be confused by the separate listings in your search results. Cool atmosphere that keep the low cinema lighting vibe alive with funky music.

This place is a hoot! When booking a film here keep in mind this theatre is more of a restaurant that plays a film while youre there. You can order anything from craft cocktails to deep fried pickles and the milkshakes are awesome! I found it really distracting to have a bunch of servers running around the theater to pick up orders and drop off food, but if youre going to see the film a second time or with a group of friends this would only add to the fun! Theres also a hip bar just beyond where you pick up your tickets which is the perfect place to grab a drink before the movie

Review №63

Small auditoriums coupled with large seating layouts make this theater in the heart of the mission district one to avoid. Assuming you can find a showing that hasnt sold out yet, your only reward will be overpriced food and beverages. The draconian rules this chain imposes only serves to add insult to injury considering the historic theater it has replaced.

Review №64

Absolutely LOVE this theater! Come early. Enjoy a drink at the bar. You can bring your drink into your theater! You cant be on your cell phone during the movie. Youll get a warning but if you still use it again youll be asked to leave. My very minor complaint is they serve popcorn in these giant metal bowls. The couple next to me kept hitting their bowl on their glasses.. it was distracting. Also the servers diving and running all over is mildly distracting but I realize its gotta get done. When I was there a man in the row behind us had a seizure. Im a RN and I helped him out kept him stable till the ambulance arrived. They didnt even comp me a drink or say thank you or anything.. anyway. Im looking forward to getting back. Its very close to 24th & mission Bart. Great date night place!

This should be a mecca for cinephiles. They have historical art adorned in the hallways. People that work there are knowledgeable and know its history. Theres a little kiosk upon entry for you to collect items to prove to your friends youve been here before. When you enter the theater there are two seats with a table that can pivot in either direction. You write you order down, put it on the table, and turn on a small light. Someone will be there to collect your order. Theyll bring it back to you. Unfortunately, I didnt try the food. Although, I did have the adult milkshake which was to die for. They have copies of the movie on film in 70 mm when available.

It was a great experience to watch a movie in a comfortable seat and eat a wonderful meal at the same time! We had the Brisket Burgers and fries with SMore Cookies for dessert, and everything was so delicious! The burgers and fries were what youd expect at a top sit-down restaurant, and the cookies were what you would find at a top bakery. We also enjoyed bottomless soda-pop and quality beer! Everything was mid-priced and well-worth it! We will definitely go back again!

A great place to enjoy a movie and lunch or dinner. There are tables for every 2 seats, with food and drinks ordered and served during the movie.

The theater has has that off-beat, quirky sense of humor you find in San Francisco. If this is not your style then you will have to endure the previews and they also have a matinee price thats fairly reasonable. They have reserved seating and you can order food directly from your seat that is delivered to you. It is a smart system that doesnt interrupt your viewing or enjoyment of the feature. They also have a bar and on the lower floor they also have old-school pinball machines. Its a good theater.

Super fun spot to see a new film. We always go with famy and plan to have dinner there during the movie. Solid menu with lots of things to choose from. Pricy, but that is probably what you would expect from a full service movie tavern. At our most recent visit, the food was super delayed, but the staff made an effort to comp that part of the meal, and I greatly appreciated their effort to make things right! Remember to book your movies a few days in advance because this place is hard to get into on the same day!

Beautiful cinema. You can reserve tickets for new releases and catch some oldies or indie films when they come around here. The food is pretty good but a little pricey. Try one of their spiked milk shakes if youre looking for a treat.This theater even has one of my favorite mission bars tucked away in the back. The bar makes for a great movie date spot or place to duck into when other bars are over crowded.

Recommended! This is a great old timey theater with service to your seat with popcorn and even full meal items. Theyre pretty strict about not talking during movies, but thats not much of a problem for me. The ticket price really isnt that bad, either: only $16 or so for the film I saw. I think they make money back on the tasty food items.

It was my first time coming here two weeks ago and Im definitely coming back again. We watched La La Land here and the ambiance was perfect.

Love this movie theatre. My favorite place to see a movie with friends. The theatres are small to medium sized with large comfortable seats. My two favorite parts are that you can order food and drink before and during the moving. Everything from wings to pizza and desserts, along with draft and bottled beer, wine and cocktails. The second being that there is plenty of leg room so staff can bring the food and drink without interruption, as a result it never feels cramped. Its not iMax quality picture and sound, but still very well maintained. Try out the pinball machines after he movie on the first floor mezzanine.

This is the only place we go to watch movies now. Weve been spoiled! We love being able to pick our seats & being able to order food, beer, wine, and cocktails from your seat is definitely the best part! The food is actually pretty good (a couple of faves of mine: fennel & mushroom pizza and their yummy hot wings). I also love trying out the rotating beers they have on tap.

Review №99

Interesting format/experience, would go again. Quality of food perhaps uneven, manage your expectations and choose carefully - maybe popcorn and pizza are more solid, hot dogs / wings less special. Shakes are probably divisive with fancy flavors/toppings. Projection quality good, but (small)screen/viewing angles not ideal for all seats (theater 5 for us).
