An inexpensive night out, food, beer, movie, what's not to like?
Have you seen these before? If I retire and look for a hobby, is this it?

we used to have a local place like that named Mugs and Movies...second-run movies for $1.50 admission, with similar foods and prices that made most of the profits.

We used to have a local place called Mugs and Juggs.
It wasn't a pottery store.

I learned two things the one time I went to a place like this, called the "Cinema Pub", it was great.
Don't order something messy. I thought chili cheese fries would be a good idea. Turns out that eating those in the dark makes a mess of a white shirt.
If it is a good/intense/complicated movie, having a few beers will put you in a rough spot. We saw Inception, and if you miss 30 seconds of that, you've lost the story, so Chrissy was just dancing in her seat waiting for it to be over.

Be careful... your eyes might be bigger than your... er... some of those ladies look like they might already be close to two.

There are a couple in the Minneapolis area. I went to one of them and had a good time - the food wasn't fancy (burgers, pizza, etc.) but they served beer and soft drinks, and besides tables and chairs there were some sofas with coffee tables set up as well.

Everything just became much clearer! 3/4 of those chicks wouldn't get a second look working here in the service industry in Alberta....
Oh yea, and alcohol, lowering standards since its creation!
