Alamo Drafthouse Cinema Lake Highlands offers a unique dining experience with good food and friendly service. The theater provides a comfortable atmosphere, and servers move discreetly during the movie, allowing guests to enjoy their film without interruption. The seats are pretty comfy, and the restrooms are clean. Customers can order food by looking at the menu at their seat, writing down their choices, and posting it like a "flag," then the server picks up the order and brings the food. Payment is made before the end of the movie, not when ordering, and the food typically costs between $10-$20 per person. Parking is immediately in front of the theater, and the large parking lot usually has no problems. The theater is smaller, so there are usually not huge crowds even for new movies. The theater also offers a "movie watcher" membership, which allows members to see one movie a day for free with a monthly fee, making it a great deal.
However, some customers have experienced issues with the volume being too loud and requests not being addressed promptly. Some guests also noted that late arrivals are not allowed into the movie once it has started. Recently, there have been changes such as a 18% service charge, which is not always transparent about where the money goes, and smaller beer glasses for the same price, which should be noted on the menu. The cookie milkshake was good, and the fried pickles and spicey pineapple Agua Fresca were delicious. The server was very nice. However, there was a weird smell almost like moldy damp rugs, and customers did not appreciate not knowing that they automatically tack on 18% gratuity until after they ordered. This was not disclosed when entering or greeted, and the server should tell you before they take your order. Some believe this 18% should be disclosed when you enter and are greeted, or at least the server should tell you before they take your order. Overall, the theater aims to provide a comfortable and enjoyable movie experience, despite a few concerns with volume and service transparency.
