Alamo Drafthouse Cinema Slaughter Lane

It's always fun catching a movie at Alamo. I watched Oppenheimer and enjoyed it quite a bit. The theater was clean, the service was great and the bathrooms were clean/everything worked. My popcorn was tasty too. I look forward to the next flick that I get to watch here. It's good idea to show up a lil earlier than the movie so that You get a chance to order some munchies.

Always a great spot for movies! From comfortable reclining seats and tasty snacks to delicious bottomless sweet tea...YUM!
They have special events and show many great classics as well as new cinema.

I've been to this Alamo a good dozen+ times since it's opened. I've never had issues with the staff, the food, or the service. Fun events, a clean area. I even had a last minute raincheck and it was processed smoothly without issue.

Just dropping a five star to say Thanks for being part of many great afternoons and evenings well spent watching great cinema 📽

Went to the Alamo this weekend to see the new hunger games, movie! Movie was great, but the service was even better. Our server Madison was so attentive and seriously, took serving one step further! I’ve worked in multiple restaurants and she is The perfect example of the kind of employee who deserves to be praised. From recommending delaying our dinner order so we could eat it at the perfect time in the three hour movie, to asking if I wanted a lime for my Diet Coke she really knew how to take care of us and make the experience so much more fulfilling! Thank you Madison and team!

Our first time experience here was awesome! Saw the new Dungeons & Dragons movie, and they had lots of fun informational videos playing before the movie. The recliners are super comfy, and the service was terrific. I had the Glazed & Confused burger with fries and a chocolate shake, and it was all yummy. The theater feels very modern, and the video and audio were also top notch. I wish we had this theater chain in our area.

Being British, Thanksgiving is beyond our compression so our annual tradition is to go to the cinema. This Alamo location is not too far out of the city centre, is clean and the servers were courteous. As the Alamo is an eat-in cinema we were fortunate not to be sitting next to someone crunching nachos or popcorn which can ruin the movie experience. The seats are extremely comfortable.

This is my favorite Alamo in Austin. The theater rooms are spacious, all of the chairs (with reclining seats) are comfortable. Not a bad seat in the house. The service is consistent.

Awesome theater with good food. I prefer the seating arrangement at this Drafthouse because the tables are split by couple rather than a giant bar style table, so it's easier to get in and out of the seat after the row's filled up. This theater is fairly large and clean. If you've never been to an Alamo Drafthouse, it's great. You get to reserve your specific seat, and there is service at the table, so you can order food and drinks. They have special menus that rotate based on big movies at the time, and they have a pretty extensive draft menu featuring plenty of local brews. The food is a little pricey, but it's also optional, so you can just enjoy the reserved seating if you want. Definitely makes for a great movie experience.

My “go to” movie theater for southwest Austin. Clean, comfortable. Great fun to order meals or nachos and margaritas while watching movie in widely spaced seats.

Over the last 6 months, I've been dealing with a major knee injury and subsequent surgery & recovery. In some periods of this (3 different braces, 2 types of crutches and 6 weeks in a wheelchair), Alamo Slaughter was the only place I could really go and be comfortable. The fact that you can book a spot that will allow you to deal with crutches & a brace or has multiple options for wheelchairs is a huge plus that I didn't recognize until this happened in summer. I'm super grateful for not just the kindness of the staff, but the structural accessibility built into the configuration of the theaters. During this period I got to show my kids Oceans 11, Hocus Pocus, Barbie, Hunger Games & more and it was an escape for me too.

Maybe the best Alamo Drafthouse in the greater Austin area. May she remain standing for generations to come! It is hard for us not to get every single Vegan item on the menu. They are all so fantastic!

The Slaughter Lane Alamo and Mueller rival for first place in my heart. Love these two locations with their easy to navigate rows (not a fan of the climbing under tables at Lamar) and the cool vibes in the entrance.

As is common with all Alamos: good movies, wonderful pre shows, delicious food and drinks and a wonderful connected bar worth the stay after. This location has become a staple for our horror movie watches (what better place than Slaughter? Ha)

The best cinema experience you can get! An Alamo classic. If you need a more relaxed day, this on Slaughter Lane is a perfect quiet spot inside a strip mall. Their recliner seats 💺 are super comfy and it goes perfect with food & drink menu which is rich and delicious.

Great food, great service, comfortable seating and very cool prefilm shorts. Very unique.

I keep coming back to this theatre. It's such a relaxing experience. I always buy my seats online, and show up generally when the movie starts. I like that they check your ticket while ordering food. Just sit back, eat, drink, and enjoy the movie. It's always clean and friendly.

Went to a late night showing of the Barbie movie. Definitely not enough parking spaces so make sure to show up a little early to find a decent spot. Even though i had to park in another businesses parking space i didn't get towed and i felt safe and secure walking from and to my car in the late hours of the night. Beer on tap was good, popcorn was tasty but seemed to have too much butter that congealed at the bottom of the bowl. Movie was amazing.

Place was extremely clean and the staff was great. The best part is definitely the food the burgers are amazing. Great job in the kitchen!!

It’s a beautiful place with a really nice atmosphere! The servers are also really friendly and will get you whatever you need. Just make sure you get there early so they can serve you properly and tell you how to order! (In case they don’t and had to learn the hard way like me you write on the order card and put it in the slot next to the pen holder or wave it at a server) Also just a heads up the bottomless popcorn really is bottomless it’s this huge large size tin bowl filled with popcorn, no size adjustments.

There is no better movie experience than Alamo Drafthouse. Come early to get the full experience. They play quirky old shows related to the main feature, and you can get your meal order in. The food is fantastic and the staff is super kind and helpful. You can’t beat the homemade buttered popcorn. Right before the movie they play this warning that the theater is a no talking zone. I LOVE this. If you want people ruining your movie experience go to AMC or Cinnemark. Lol. Right before the movie begins they play this 10 second clip with Alamo Drafthouse logo and this intense music. Same idea as the THX clip. I don’t know what it is, but I absolutely love that part. The whole experience is awesome. If you haven’t done Alamo before you need to give it a try. It’s how movies were meant to be seen.

Love this so much better than the big brand cinemas! Reclining chairs and tables with food and drink service - that comes to you! It is a smaller venue but it's a unique experience. They have lots of themed movie events and movies specifically for sensory sensitive kids and adults (lower volume, low lights, feel free to move around!). They also have "no kid" movies if you want a movie with no distractions - so you pretty much can have it your way. Tickets are reasonable and food and drinks were pretty good.
