Reclining, clean seats with adjustable foot rest!
Christina H.

Came in for a Sunday matinee (10:45 AM) and was shocked by the ticket price--only $12! Unfortunately, concession prices don't fluctuate for early risers-- a small bag of popcorn cost almost as much as the ticket itself! Our trip to the movie theater wasn't planned, and so we didn't buy tickets in advance for our screening, Freakier Friday. Despite the movie just being released this past Friday, the showing was nearly empty & only had adults in attendance. The theater was clean, the reclining seats were comfortable, and while I'm not much of a movie-goer, I thoroughly enjoyed my experience!!

Recliner chairs!

I like Regal theaters in general (at least the ones in Austin). They are usually clean, very comfortable, have good popcorn, and the staff is friendly and ready to help. Westgate is never too busy and easy to navigate. This location is near some great restaurants, including Amy's Ice Cream, so it's also convenient for making a night of it.

I arrived around 8pm on a Monday evening (New Years) with my son and sister to see The Color Purple. We were visiting from out of state I bought our tickets via the Regal app. On arrival, they have the ticket window but it was closed. Inside, we were greeted promptly and told which theater to go to. We stoped to the concession stand to get popcorn and drink. The employee was very helpful and friendly. There is a small "arcade" area to the right. The restrooms were available prior to individual theaters. The men's restroom was clean, no complaints. We were in theater 8 and the layout was much different than in accustomed to. You can see the screen from the entrance. I assume it was one of the smaller theaters. The seats reclined and there was a headrest. It was comfy. The cupholders are large enough for the cups and the armrest is wide enough to hold a large tub of popcorn. The popcorn, though, was mediocre. It was warm-ish and didn't taste very fresh. It was a Monday, so I doubt they were busy to constantly have fresh popcorn. Overall, it was a good experience. No major complaints.

I met some friends here to go see the Barbie movie. It's been ages since I was in a regular theater. I typically go to the place where there is no basement. *Do you recognize my PeeWee Herman movie reference? If you do...high five. If you don't, google it. ;) The lobby felt just like a movie theater lobby did back in the day. There were even arcade games on one side of the lobby. :) My friends decided to get some snacks. The best value is the kid's pack. I mean aren't we all kids at heart? You get a little tray with popcorn, a small drink, and a pack of fruit snacks. I asked for water and he asked me if I wanted a bottle of water or just a glass of water...which he gave me for free!! Thanks dude! We were in Theater 2. Row D. Just a warning that seat D2 does not recline. They should have not sold that seat to be fair. A reclining seat that doesn't recline doesn't seem right. We saw lots of people dressed up for the Barbie movie. We all looked at each other and we laughed. We were all in shades of black and grey. ;) I did see a lady in the lobby who looked adorable. She had on a Barbie shirt and cute earrings. (See photo) She was prepared! We all loved the movie. We didn't know what to expect but it was great! Go see it and wear some pink. Don't be lame and wear boring drab colors like us! ;)

Regal westgate is my favorite movie theater! The most comfortable recliner seats, perfect arm rest so you don't touch the person next to you lol, I took my 2 little kids last Sunday, we watched Paddintong on Peru, I'm from Peru so that movie was a must!!! We loved it and of course I cried at the end... I feel the same way Paddigtong! The girl at reception was so nice, she took some pics of us, we got popcorn, fresh, salty and buttery, perfect! Movie theater was clean and nice! And of course I didn't forget to get more points on my regal account lol Who doesn't love free popcorn?!

A private party room
Alex V.

I have been to all the Regal theaters in Austin, and this is definitely the nicest. The most important parts are the comfortable reclining seats that go almost horizontal and the spacious aisles so you never have to scoot by anybody. They even have a private party room you can book for your group of kids! The entrance is rather impressive by itself with grand open spaces resembling an old train station with exposed girders and a large clock over the concession stand. The bathrooms are clean and bright and everything seems roomy and comfortable. I definitely recommend the Regal Unlimited pass that works through the app in your phone and grants free admission to all the movies you want to see for $18 a month, gives small discounts on concessions, and even works on the other Regal theaters seamlessly if you find yourself in another part of town. If you plan on seeing more than one movie a month you can't go wrong at that price!

Pizza Combo!
Nancy G.

This was my first time at Regal Westgate, and I thought it was really nice! The concession stand is directly in front when you enter and they have a lot of advertising boards and posters to take pictures with. The staff up front is super friendly, as soon as I entered one of their employees asked if I needed help and was able to immediately direct me to my assigned theater. I didn't expect for them to have recliner seats, but they did and they were really comfortable and reclined back a decent amount. The pizza combo came with four items, the pizza of your choice, candy, a drink, and popcorn. The pizza was decent, it could've been a little better, I just felt like it tasted like the Totino's party pizzas. For all four items it was roughly about $35, so a bit pricey in my opinion but not many theatre's offer a combo like that. The screen in theater 10 is big and if you're like me who likes to sit in the back because the screen is sometimes too bright, this movie theatre was great! I will definitely be coming here again!

Inside the theater

This was my first time at this theater even though I used to work right around the corner and would pass it all the time. I went t to see the new version of The Color Purple and had no idea this gem of a theater was so awesome. The concessions have so much more than I expected. They all tons of beers and seltzers and other drinks besides sodas and water. Also the menu was extensive in different types of popcorn that they call gourmet popcorn. Pizza caught my eye and other things you can eat for a real meal. I was in a rush before the movie started so I went with the basic bag of popcorn and a water. Sure as expected, anything you get is going to be pricey like any theater. So a small bag of popcorn and water ran me about $15. The menu is animated with a lit up rotating menu and movie ads. The clerk was super friendly and fast. The staff was great and take pride in working there which was great as it made my experience wanting to come back for other movies. The theatre seats are the kind that recline and mine could recline so much, I needed to adjust it not so far back so I could take sips of my water and snack on popcorn. Oh yes and see the movie. I've never owned a recliner but this one I could've taken a comfy nap on. There's a cup holder on each side and arm rests. So there's plenty to of room to not feel crowded by anyone sitting next to you. The washrooms are close by the theater, so if you need to rush out in the middle of a film, it won't take long to get back to your seat. They were clean and spacious. I went after the film and found it funny as all the toilets seem to be flushing the entire time I was in there. So the pipes are in good shape. LOL it's close to Central Market and the parking lot has plenty of room.

Riveting films. Friendly staff. Free restroom admission. Claw game in the lobby is rigged though. And comfy chairs

This has become one of my favorite spots to watch movies in Austin. After visiting this location, I'm hooked. Clean and retro-like theatre, reclining seats. This theatre shows older series such as Avatar, Harry Potter and has all the latest films released to date. Recommended Seating: The concierge recommends seating row 'E' and I could not agree more. Perfect view of screen, surround sound, etc. I have a blast each time I visit. I hope more Dragonball films come back to this location soon!

Upon arrival, I wanted to pay with my MoviePass card and so I walked to the ticketing booth and the young lady was on her phone and had an AirPod in. I scared the DAYLIGHT out of her. I felt so bad even though it wasn't my fault. Just oof. Also, it was really hard to communicate as there are issues with the glass microphone... At the concessions, I had 3 coupons from a Christmas promo. The poor guy had to enter them separately and this is where things got weird. I asked him what was closest to $5 and he said a bottled beverage. On the screen it showed $5.80 for a bottled beverage. When he rang up my Fairlife chocolate milk (I'll get to this later), it was $6.30 or $6.80. Either way, I got to use my coupons even though it took 7-10 min. My popcorn was stale and severely disappointing but whatever...it was 9am. The chocolate milk, well, I thought it was a protein shake as it did end up having 23g of protein. However, it did not use the lactose free milk and I suffered drastically during the middle of the film. That was my fault. The Coke Zero syrup was okay but I've had better. The concession area was spectacularly clean. The patron checking tickets was super diligent and wonderful at his job. I was happy to, once again, see how local Cinemarks hire those with disabilities. My seat didn't recline all of the way and now I know why no one chose my row (I wish they would have told me it was a Dbox row when I purchased the ticket). Overall, a decent experience and I would be back!

Honestly just go look at any movie at any time, and compare it to the nearest Alamo on Slaughter. Right now I can have an entire theater to myself, where Alamo has a few seats left, for the same movie, at the same time. Nobody is sitting at their bar, no body is eating in the community space, the arcade is sparse with kids, and the theaters are empty. I watched a movie by myself last night (saturday) at 5pm. The place is dirty. You can see moths flying around in the theater. The food is BAD. The popcorn isn't even good. I got a tub and it was the bottom of the barrel, loaded with seeds.... With a drink.... $17. Seventeen dollars to crack a tooth if I'm not careful. The seats are falling apart. Some don't even work because the electronics are broken. Id hate to see what it looks like with the lights on. General ticket prices are around $4 more than a movie at Alamo where it's far more temperate, far more comfortable, has far better food, far better service, and is overall a far better experience. I'm not sure if it's just this location, but owners and management are completely clueless. This place won't last another 3-5 years unless they enact drastic change. Oh, also, is there a reason you keep the music on all night on the outside speakers? Are your employees really that lazy? I walk past it every morning, around 6am and music is still blaring away outside. It doesn't bother anyone, but it gives you an idea of how little anyone cares here.

At the Power Ballad preview, they awarded a guitar to the first person to jump up and name the director (John Carney). I didn't win.
