    Cumberland Drive-In is a true gem! One of only 321 drive-in theaters left in America, it just…read morecelebrated its 74th anniversary this year. At 40 years old, this was my very first time at a drive-in movie, and to say I was excited is an understatement! I managed to catch the very last weekend of the season, and both films showing were horror movies. Was it the wisest choice for my first drive-in experience? Probably not. But I couldn't resist checking it out before the fall weather got too chilly--so yes, my very first drive-in movie was The Conjuring: Last Rites. Why not go big? We reserved a parking spot online for $10, which gave us peace of mind even though the lot wasn't full that night (maybe because it was the last day of the season, maybe because it was horror night). Either way, we got an excellent spot just a few rows back from the absolutely massive screen--about 40 ft by 60 ft! I even had to grab a selfie at the base of it to show just how huge it was. Tickets were $10 per person, and since you can bring your own snacks and drinks, it makes for an affordable night out. We did check out the snack bar too, and I was impressed--it had way more than a typical theater: burgers, hot dogs, chicken tenders, and more, all reasonably priced. The bathrooms nearby were well-labeled, lit, and clean. Tuning into the movie on the car radio at 88.7 FM was easy, and one of my favorite parts was the retro intros and national anthem before the movie started. They felt like they had been playing since the theater first opened in 1951--charming, nostalgic, and completely perfect. Settled in with my blanket, the passenger seat heater cranked up, and a big bowl of homemade popcorn and trail mix, I was in drive-in heaven. The movie was fun, but honestly, this review is about the experience, and Cumberland Drive-In delivered everything I could have hoped for. It was easy to find (GPS took us right to it), stress-free, and an unforgettable way to spend a late summer evening. I'll definitely be back next year--though probably for something other than a horror flick. Highly recommend making the trip and experiencing this slice of Americana for yourself!

We reserved our spots ahead of time but found that wouldn't have been necessary. The tickets were cheap enough for all of us to watch 2 new movies and the snack bar was also super cheap. We always try to patronize the snack bars when we go to the drive in since we've found out that's where they are able to earn most of their money. You can bring your own radio or get one from the snack bar. There is a nice grassy area in the front under the screen that kids can play in and everything is pretty relaxed at this drive in. Given it's one of the closer ones to us, we're going to be back again for their next season.

In NJ we had a few in South Jersey but they closed decades ago becuz of the huge multiplexes. I heard about this place and wanted so badly to check it out. Now if u live where I do or close to the Philly area it's about a 2 hour and a half . But it's def worth the trip. It would be cool, for a family and kids as kids r free 11 and under which is a big savings $$$$$. They have your drive in which late last year in August the price $8 a person . U can't beat it . My girlfriend and her kids and I left early to get there by dusk .Get there early so u can get a good place since u r outside with this massive screen . Plus, I would recommend to bring goodies we had a cooler for drinks and brought snacks and hoagies. But they have a place where they sell the usual movie eats like popcorn, ice cream, hotdogs, corn dogs, drinks. The great thing is it is kinda nostalgic since I remember them in my early teens. And it's so cool to be outside instead of inside a theater and watch several movies for one price. They run the current movies and I also checked out the Midway's snack center which most where with kids buying drinks , popcorn ,,and candy. If you don't mind driving a couple hours, it is worth the trip. I had a blast It was just so much fun . Def , check it out , I def want to go back and stay overnight since the town is quaint and not overdeveloped like most towns. Def hope it is open in 2017.

    With the weather warming up nothing spells out spring and summer like a date at the drive-in…read moretheatre. And Bengie's in Middle River delivers! I love that the price of admission covers not one but two films! The business does a good job scheduling the films playing on the weekend. If you're going on the weekend make sure your car has a min or two people! If you bring extra people when you arrive, make sure you have cash with you to get their tickets. And I recommend getting there early to get a good spot (and ensure concession lines are too long). Speaking of concessions (or as they call it Snack Bar) the food is great! The prices are really affordable and unlike the Box Office the Snack Bar at Bengeies does take credit cards! You can bring your own food but you will have to pay a fee at the Box Office. I also recommend bringing a radio if you're not planning to have your car running during the movie/you bring a law chair to sit outside. If you're looking for a fun and cute date night, Bengie's isn't a bad spot.

    You know, there's usually nothing about an organization that conjures up a customer complaint or…read moretwo. After reading the numerous-like complaints regarding customer service at Bengies: it is clear you have a serious issue with staff AND yourself with exerting your authority over your customers. The issue at hand is you've forgotten the simplest of things: customers pay your way, clearly you do not care. And that's fine: you'll lose more, word of mouth travels quicker than the speed of light at times as do reviews on so many platforms. The fact you made a case about bringing a water bottle in, issuing and voiding a pass tells me, tells everyone: you are vindictive. Thankfully, there are other venues: Stephens City, Lexington to name a couple. Oddly, while they have similar rules and regulations to follow: they do not have to plethora of complaints you have amassed. Why do you think that is? Why are there less confrontations? You think that's a "them" thing or is it ................ a "you" thing?
