Alamo Drafthouse Cinema Richardson

Alamo Drafthouse is my favorite movie chain, and this location is superb. Nice selection of drinks and movie-themed food. Make sure to get to your movie 30 minutes early to watch the custom pre-roll. Update: Still great after all the years.

Visited this past weekend. They were short staffed. Coke Zero tasted like garbage- they said it was because the syrup ran out (then why serve it to me?) And we only ordered popcorn to eat and it took over an hour to get that (while the gentleman next to ate not only one, but two of the bottomless popcorn before we got ours) They did take the coke zero and popcorn off our tab - but overall a big disappointment. Makes a good case for bringing in your own snacks.

One of the better Alamo draf houses in the area. The food is okay, but the vibes are great.

I love everything Alamo stands for: enjoying a movie in quiet and also with tasty food. I will say that this particular location doesn't have reclining seats.

So movie started 435 made 450
Steffany and Luna the managers was rude disrespectful staff lied
We sat in movies 40+min order drinks showed ID and received drinks drunk drinks 525 they came said staff was uncomfortable with us manager made us leave refused give refund said it was company policy

The theater is pretty mid (and chairs are standard w/out recline) but the dinning experience is nice (very expensive though and service quality is dependent on your wait staff).

My Fiancée and I had an amazing experience here. This place is awesome for many reasons. The atmosphere is old timey & what we loved also is that phones, talking, crying babies, etc.does not happen here because they keep an eye on all that. It was nice to watch a movie with no chatter or phone distractions. Hopefully more movie theaters follow suit. I’d give this place 6 stars if I could. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Having been here close to 20 times I have had only two poor experiences in regards to food service, which is honestly a pretty great track record.

Not the best value for some things on the menu but the pricing is fair, comparatively to the broader market.

How this place is still open is beyond my comprehension with the terrible customer service for paying customers. Management here needs to be evaluated.

Came here today for the Barbie movie. Food was good, we had the fried pickles. Got soft drinks and a milkshake. Hubby loves that they use Amy's ice cream for the shakes. Fun props for photo opportunities for the movie. Had a great time.

Been coming since it opened. Staff is usually great, theater is clean, food is good. I’m not giving it 5 stars due to the crazy high prices since reopening after Covid. $7.50 for ONE basic drink is bonkers. We should have paid attention to the fine print for drinks before ordering, but it didn’t even occur to me as it’s habit. I would have never expected to pay $15 for a soda and tea. That’s a whole other meal. Other prices are up as well, but that one hits the hardest.

Miss the original but this was great- we saw Jaws. The host did a great Quinn impression. The milkshake was disappointing, and I don't think we'll order off the menu again.

WAY TOO EXPENSIVE to buy food or drinks. Two ciders cost $17. To plant-based burgers with fries and a popcorn cost over $50. Total with tips cost nearly $80. The seats don't even recline.

This place is great, not the best theater experience as far as screen size but the zero tolerance on phone use and talking makes it the main reason I go. The movie I seen last was horrible "Asteriod City" but that is not the theaters fault.
Overall the alamo draft house has a great atmosphere and I recommend it to everyone I know.

Popped in to watch a Wes Anderson movie, Asteroid City, with a couple of family members. The ordering system is not high tech, but it works, and the service is okay. The food is good, albeit, a bit on the expensive side. The atmosphere they have is very good for watching movies. Will definitely go back.

Movie & the angry margarita pizza great! My daughter got the buffalo & it was great too. Make sure if you get a bottomless drink & want a refill to put it on the order paper so your server knows

Of the 35 years I've been going to the movie theaters, I have yet to find a theater I enjoy as much as Alamo. From the pre-show commercials, extensive menu of varied food, mixed drinks and alcohol, to theater aesthetics and well trained staff, Alamo is my favorite theater and well worth the trip if you can stop in and catch a flick.
