We pioneered the dine-in cinema experience and now we’re perfecting it with bold new menu items and more of what you love
The Food Pyramid was introduced in the ‘70s but, like the pet rock and macramé owls, it’s outdated and a little ugly. Introducing the Food Rhombus, a bold new shape with six food groups for optimal cinema dining. We heard what you love and we’ve got more of it in our robust core menu, available now at your local Alamo Drafthouse. Whether you’re jonesing for brunch at 7 p.m. or thirsty for a non-alcoholic cocktail at noon, there’s something to suit your mood, delivered right to your comfy movie seat. It doesn’t get any better than this.
The Brunch All Day Group
Brunch is the best meal of the day–the science backs this up–so why limit it to just pre-noon screenings? Now you can order any one of our Brunch menu items, including The Breakfast Club and the new Fried Egg Frito Pie and Acai Chia Smoothie, any time you like. And no matter the time of the day, you can pair your scrumptious meal with our spicy Bloody Mary or a refreshing Mimosa. Alamo Drafthouse is now your Brunch All Day headquarters.
We believe that this all-important meal should be enjoyed as often as possible. That’s why, from May 13-May 27, 2025, you can enter our Brunch All Year Sweepstakes for a chance to win, well, brunch all year.
The Popcorn Group
Every movie theater has popcorn but have you tried ours? Seriously, it’s in a class by itself: freshly popped, perfectly salted, and best of all, bottomless! Order our original variety with real clarified butter on request or try our new Dill Pickle, Spicy Ranch, and Chili Garlic varieties that’ll keep you coming back for more. And good news: you can get more. Just raise an order card and we’ll top you up.
The Chicken Group
Whether you’re a Wings guy, a Bites gal, or a Tenders tot, we’ve expanded our menu of delicious chicken options. You’re also going to flip over our new Fried Chicken Sandwich which, like the Wings, Bites, and Tenders, can be dressed however you like: Dry Rub or with one of our delicious sauces, including Buffalo and BBQ. Looking for a veggie option? Try our battered Cauliflower Bites with the sauce of your choice, either as a side or an entree.
The Burger Group
Burgers have been a staple of Alamo Drafthouse since we opened our first location in Austin in 1997 and we’ve improved our already robust selection. Try the new Classic Double Burger or the new Vegan BBQ Burger, served with cooked-to-perfect French fries, and see what all the fuss is about.
The Zero Proof Beverage Group
We’ve always offered a full menu of hand-selected beers on tap–we’re the “drafthouse” after all–and now we’ve expanded our drink menu with a whole host of fun non-alcoholic options. On the beer side, we love the Run Wild IPA from Athletic Brewing Company. And the sky’s the limit on cocktails with Ritual alcohol-free spirits, including their outstanding whiskey and tequila alternatives. In the mood for something fruitier? Try our Texas Classics: the Mango Tajin Agua Fresca or the Spice Pineapple Agua Fresca.
The Sweets
It’s so much more than candy at Alamo Drafthouse. New on the Sweets menu are our jar desserts: The Banana Pudding Jar, with Nilla wafers, banana pudding, and real bananas, and the Key Lime Pie Jar, with zesty key lime custard and a graham cracker crust. Both of these delicious desserts are topped with whipped cream. We’ve also added to our line of Hand-Spun Milkshakes with the invigorating Cold Brew Milkshake or the boozy Turbo Cold Brew Milkshake with Jameson Irish Whiskey, Grady’s NOLA Cold Brew, and chocolate sauce.
What are you waiting for? Come into your local Alamo Drafthouse and Taste the Rhombus!
