Lafayette Theater does it all, with the possible exception of theater. Just go to their website:…read more http://lafayettetheater.com/ and see what they've got coming up. One ongoing event that's definitely worth checking out is the Tuesday Dinner & Movie night. For $15, you get a candlelit dinner (catered by Scanoli's Cajun and BBQ Restaurant, across the street) and a classic movie. These days, the movie alone would cost you $10! And that means that the $5-dinner, already very good on the palate, was also quite gentle on the wallet. They also show Monday night football on the big screen. Moreover, for most of these events, the bar is open, which means you can enjoy a drink while you watch the movie. Tell me, where else in the US can you do that! I'm sure such places exist, but they're few and far between. For what it's worth, you can also rent out the space for events such as receptions and weddings. I haven't yet been there for something like that. But if it's handled anywhere near as well as the movie night, I'm already a fan.

Lafayette 7 has smaller theaters than Eastside 9. I'm not sure if any have the reclining seats yet…read more I have yet to see that and I went to Lion King on opening weekend. The theaters feature stadium seating so recliners may not be feasible, although there is a flat floor section up front. The theaters have "rocker" chairs which allows the person in front of you to lean back right into your knees. The last time, my wife had a huge guy in front of her that due to his weight was leaning back and practically in her lap. His female companion sitting in front of me was very animated during parts of Lion King, bouncing in her seat (and this was an adult, not a child!) when certain scenes excited her. Luckily she didn't bang into my knees. This would be my second choice for a local theater, only if I can't get the times I want at Eastside.

This is why I'll continue going to Flix Brewhouse in Carmel. Better service and cleanliness. The least they could have done was to send someone in to clean but the teenage manager couldn't care less.

This is a smaller AMC but still has the wonderful perks AMC theaters offer. We went about 2 pm and…read morethere was barely anyone watching a movie at this time. Also, the price was $3.99! That is an amazing deal. Easy to check in with the tickets we purchased through their app and we walked right in. Concession stand was also free of people and it was very clean and organized. Lots of staff on hand to take your order. Movie theatre was small but the area was very clean and the seats were comfortable and free of stains etc. it was also a decent temp inside and I only needed a blanket to keep me warm. The screen was in great shape and the sound and volume level was perfect. The bathroom was in need of some attention with toilet paper missing from one stall and the other stall I tried didn't have a lock on the door. Third stall was fine but the sinks needed a good wipe down and refill of supplies. I would come back if I lived her but we were just passing thru and wanted to see a movie. Def recommend seeing a movie here.
