It’s hard to talk about Austin food without talking about Alamo Drafthouse. Alamo Drafthouse combines the love for food with that of entertainment. The Drafthouse is a chain of movie theaters around Austin, which offer food and drinks, while you enjoy your movie.
They constantly add to their menu and offer specials, which correlate to the special movie they have going on.
Tonight, they have a Michael Jackson Sing-a-long.
Tomorrow, Friday, November 6, they will have their special, Master Pancake Theatre. They will be showing ET.
Besides the entertainment, the menu is definitely something to rave about. Many items on the menu were inspired by movies or notable characters like “Moonstruck,” a Margherita pizza with basil and tomatoes or “The Godfather” with pepperoni, green bell peppers, mushrooms, onion, basil, tomato, black olives and cheese.
The pizzas are not the only thing that’s good here. The Alamo also has an impressive dessert menu (we know how much I love sweets). Besides their $5 milkshake, the Alamo also has a Molten Chocolate Cake with ice

cream, a midnight espresso chocolate shake, and a White Chocolate Raspberry Mousse Cake.
After a hard day’s work, the Alamo Ritz has happy hour shows, from 4pm to 6pm. They have $2 Tecate and Lone Star, $3.99 frozen margaritas, $1 off wells, and $2 small popcorns.
Besides the location downtown, there is a location at in the Village boasts “dessert eggrolls,” which are two apple-ginger eggrolls with chocolate ginger sauce and scoop of Amy’s Ice Cream.
Here’s a look at last year’s Master Pancake Theater of “Forrest Gump.”
