Santikos Entertainment - Happy hour menu - Cinema Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

The movie experience was great!! I went to Casa Blanca for a matinee showing of the 1999 cinematic masterpiece, The Mummy, with Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz on its 26th anniversary and had a wonderful time. The cinema in its entirety was pretty slow when I went so I had the theater to myself for the showing. I'm sure the lack of a crowd was part of the reason the staff was in such a good mood! For the place itself, the theater's speakers were crisp and the seats, though not recliners, were comfy, the self serve drink refill and snack station was clean and fully stocked, and the restrooms were in excellent condition as well. Nothing new here but beware the snack prices. They keep getting pricier and pricier! I'd definitely like to return to see a few more movies and experience the arcade and bowling side of things. Thanks for a good time, Casa Blanca! read more

The popcorn is cold and stale and way over priced! Its dissappointing to pay $15 for a large tub of popcorm when I could have popped it better at home. read more

Movie theatre was good. The chairs need to be repaired, some are broken and leans back too far. Very uncomfortable to sit in. The popcorn needs to be improved. They served all small pieces, and burnt you could not even pick them up. When I asked the girl to remake it she did, but has no customer service. I should not have been served burnt small kernels that did not pop properly. The customer service used to be wonderful here and the popcorn too. But not so much lately. Management needs to do better with food quality inspections and train their employees. I also miss that welcoming family friendly environment. I hope they get better training with that too. read more

The food is ok. I mean you pay a lot . The service is not so great. I mean you have to pay with a credit card for everything there. Like you can't pay with money. Like I have never went to movie theaters like that.. some people don't have credit cards. That is a big turn off. The ambiance is bad as well you guys need a update bad. read more

Zero stars at this point. I'm so furious! Service is awful they wouldn't let me into the theater since I had my 8month old with me to see John Wick when I've literally been to the same movie theater to watch Cocaine Bear! Then wouldn't give us a refund or offer to change the movie. read more

Went to watch the obsession. Was surprised to see how big the theater was compared to your average Cinemark. The margaritas there were strong but still tasted good. I didn't like how the seats did not recline back. One thing that also struck me as odd was the screen was more square shaped (most theaters I've been to have been more rectangular shape screens) the audio and visuals were still very good and would definitely come back read more

I'm so over this place! They charge 5$ for a water bottle, 7.50$ for a their smallest drink, and they made me take my water back to the car. So I sit here in the movie theater with a migraine because the only other option was a kids sno cone cup! Some people have medical conditions and shouldn't be forced to pay ridiculous prices to keep themselves healthy and stable. I get the need to keep people from stealing drinks but allowing people to bring in clear containers should be allowed! Not to mention their seats don't even recline! It's a newer theater... why? My legs are so uncomfortable! read more

Always fun to watch our favorite movies here at Santikos. However, although Casa Blanca is fairly new, they seem to be neglecting proper maintenance and upkeep. Obviously the upholstery on the seats are faux leather, otherwise they would be charging higher ticket price on the already high price they currently charge for each moviegoer. They should have at least regularly check the seats to make sure it all still look presentable and justifiable to the ticket price we customers pay. High-priced food and beverages seem to be the norm and well we are all seem to be used to it, it's all decent anyway. But the facilities should be maintained regularly. These seats are horribly neglected and for me personally doesn't live up to Santikos brand. Though Santikos theatre still beats all the other competing chains of movie houses but they should consistently live up to their name that is singularly Santikos. read more

I've never been to this theater, so I didn't know what to expect. It is huge! There was even a bowling alley and bar. Pretty clean and friendly staff. It was empty when we went so we had the theater to ourselves. Would definitely go again. read more

I had a large group of 12 that wanted to go bowling at 7 pm at Casa Blanca. The Santikos instructions online said I had download the Open Lane app to get on the waitlist the day of. I had to wait until the wait time would land on 7 pm. When we got to Casa Blanca to check-in, I was told "Oh, we don't use that. We put you on a list." She then wrote my name and lane requirements down and said we had to wait about 20 minutes or so. There was only one person working the desk for a high volume time! The poor girl was overwhelmed. The bowling alley was nice, lighting was good, with a good amount of seating, but too narrow. However, the echo from the lanes was the loudest I'd ever heard. We could barely hear ourselves talk. No bathroom for the bowling alley. You had to walk into the theater hallway for the bathrooms there and go past the ticket taker. Awkward. We could only find one skinny trash can, and it was literally overflowing. The bar had only one bartender taking drink and food orders; both overpriced and not that good. You could order on the score pad at your lane, but that stopped the game. If I go back, it won't be with a group or on a weekend. read more

Been a customer since they opened. I'm in the neighborhood since 2009. I love that Santikos donates to the community. Comeback after Covid was great. Their food choices are good but would recommend the chicken quesadillas. Clean maintained reclining seats. Refillable large soda. Popcorn deals. Military deal on Mondays. Rewards program is good and worth it. This movie theater has been an asset to the growing community read more

Went on Monday to get military appreciation ticket. The movie I went for was on a screen that did not offer the military rate. We did not buy a ticket. When I got home I had to go to the internet web page, not their app, to see the fine print of all the exceptions on the military appreciation tickets. Not sure if offering limited screens for first responders and military shows their level of appreciation. read more

This place is more than a movie theater... it's an EXPERIENCE!! What a beautiful building!! HUGE! There's an arcade and even a Bowling Alley inside! You can order more than popcorn, too!! Their chicken strips were delicious! The young lady was more than happy to help me use the voucher for my free movie! So kind and polite! I will be back again and again! read more

Saw The Last Rodeo, great movie but otherwise I didn't really enjoy my experience so i'll choose a different movie theater next time. Staff attitude was below average, the nachos were actually bad which is weird, I have never had nachos I didn't like. And the seats didn't recline in the theater :( probably the most disappointing of all. I could hear people yelling and talking outside of the theater while watching the movie. read more

I decided to take my family out for a night of bowling since visiting, and my family and I had our presence graced a young lady named Ava. She was taking care of us during the evening, and she was just amazing. Food was just okay, we had not expected much in terms of quality anyhow. To end on good note, I very much appreciated the space that Ava gave for my family I, and I plan to bring them home when visiting again. read more

This was my first time bringing my 3 year old to the movie theater. The free summer movie at 10 am on Tuesdays and Wednesdays was the perfect opportunity. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Under $10 for 2 boxes of popcorn and 2 frozen drinks for both kids and a viewing of a great movie. I wish the theatre and restroom had been a bit cleaner but I'm not going to deduct anything for for that due to this wonderful summer opportunity. Thank you Santikos. read more

Santikos Entertainment - Every seat except for the first row and a half are full. - Cinema Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

We came here just to go bowling, it was fun, not too many people. I didn't like that the screens at the back are playing while you're trying to bowl and the reflection is in the lane so it is very distracting and makes it hard to see the arrows. I do like that the pins are not in strings! I wish that we could have paid by game instead of time, we weren't able to get through our last game because our time ran out. This is a great establishment, movies, bowling, food, games. read more

Device was great. The ambiance was too. It was a little messy in the condiments and drink area.

Our favorite theatre to go in town. Lobby and theaters are new and state of the art with reclining seats and robo waiter. Favorite meal is the philly cheese. Waiters are always friendly. This place gives a "Alamo drafthouse" vibe but bigger and better. read more

The movie screen experience, the food and spending time with my daughter was a great experience

Came to watch The Chosen and for some reason they have their AC like at 79° so it's super humid and stuffy in here. Feels horrible. I can smell everyone's food mixing and it's making me nauseas. Shouldn't movie theaters be cold? It feels disgusting in here. Not the best experience to watch something we've been waiting for for so long. read more

We personally love it at this movie theater! This time around they were fresh out of a lot of snacks given that sonic put them behind but normally they are pretty good about snacks. We like to take advantage of playing arcades here but I will give a fair warning they don't have a ton of games. Overall we always have a good time read more

This theater location is one of the best I've been to. It's always so clean and it's very spacious. The service is friendly and courteous.

Casa Blanca is one of San Antonio's newest movie theaters and is beautiful. It looks massive from the front of the theater (see picture) and even has a bowling alley and arcade inside! I had the opportunity to see The Valet premier and it was hilarious! I don't remember when I last laughed so much! Definitely go see this movie! read more

I came here for my first movie theater experience in Texas, which also happened to be the first movie I've watched in theaters in over two years. Upon entering the building, you find yourself in a large atrium centered around guest services. To the left is Bowling & Bar, the right is Express Café, and directly in front of you is a large concession area. A large popcorn is $8, but the popcorn kernels themselves were rather small and not really fluffy. It was a bit disappointing since I expected better popcorn quality, especially at a movie theater. The auditorium I was in did not have reclining seats, and some of them were rather squeaky. The cup holders and the seats seemed a bit dirty. However, I liked that each armrest had a metal lip that held your popcorn container in place. Hoping that other locations of Santikos are better because this location ranked below average than other movie theater experiences I've had. read more

Ahhhhh the good ol casa Blanca, what can I say......nothing but good service here. The food is always fresh and thankfully I have never had it come out cold. Also, the atmosphere is live, there's always lots of chatter. Don't forget the bowling alley! That place is fun too, and it doesn't break the bank either. They also have a gaming arcade. I have never been but there always lots of people there. The theater itself has many small and big screens and variety of seats all ranging from price to price you choose what you want on the kiosk or app! read more

This is my first time to this location.... Super convenient and huge on the outside! Parking is *chefs kiss* immaculate! Now I did go to the bar and they are SUPER STRICT! No double fisting at this location! One drink per person! But happy hour is legit and tenders were decent! French fries.... Those were bomb! Only gave 4 stars bc I would think 2 drinks is fine! Losing money bc I'm not leaving the movie to come to the bar again! Can't even send one person to grab for you! read more

Santikos Entertainment - Previews - Cinema Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

I love this theatre. Lots of family oriented activities, like bowling, movie watching and an arcade, too. Lots of parking, but the place gets packed even during matinee hour on a weekend. Watched a movie today with family from out of town and enjoyed some concession treats. The large popcorn and large drinks come with free refills and there is an express ordering option where you can pick up your preordered pizza slices, etc in a warmed cubby off to the side. Pretty cool. Drink refills are self serve at a station near the theatres. I love the theatre spaces. At least the one we were in today, was smaller, clean and a more intimate setting. The seats are all power recliners and what I love is that you choose your own seats when you purchase online. No need to rush to the location to be early so you can try to get the best seats. Workers were friendly today. Would recommend! read more

The family and I loved going to the movie theaters for one dollar each! This Fall Series is awesome! 4 of us got to see Coraline, get popcorn & soda and play a few arcade games all for under $20! And this is 2022! This theatre is also very clean, spacious, and conveniently located right off 1604. read more

Had not been to the movies in a while was amazing evening. They have a bar now which we had to go in and have a drink before the movie. I had a mangonada drink but I did not expect it to be so huge regardless I sacrificed and drank it. The seats were awesome and relaxing if it wasn't because this movie was so funny I would have fallen asleep here. We were given tickets for a drink and popcorn and was surprised to find out that it was self serve and I could come back for more (how times have changed). I do have to say the popcorn was fresh and the butter on top made it even better. They have ushers cleaning all around so they can help if you need anything. Looking forward to coming back. read more

As Texas, the city reopens for business (even though it never really closed) we navigate our lives through potential pathogenic waters. When we leave our homes now we bring our keys, wallets and pack our face masks. This is our new reality, an assemblage of normalcy. A few weeks back I was anticipating the first wave of Summer Blockbuster Films with drink in tow. Instead I am left wondering if any of us will ever enjoy that simple pleasure again. In the social experiment that is the first phase of businesses reopening theaters fit imperfectly into this category. At this level we are in essence a test subject for procedures and best practices moving forward. I say this as I was curious how places would adapt to these changes. But I mainly came because theaters for me represent a comfort slowly being taken away. I'm no epidemiologist even with a face mask minus the scrubs. However it was crazy seeing Santiko's "Casablanca" resembling a hazmat scene rather than SA's premier megaplex. When I arrived I was greeted with staff opening doors for me, for patrons. Everyone from managers to ushers were wearing masks. As I made my way through the main atrium a person seated at a table asked a few basic health questions: "Are you experiencing any Covid-19 symptoms?" Again this is part of our new reality. Another thing that struck me was the absence of sounds associated with the theater experience: the arcade wasn't annoyingly blasting, people's conversation squelched and children running amok no more. It's been replaced with a deafening silence and everyone looking at each other suspiciously. I was also hoping to bring my trusty beer refill mug "Thor" with me, but the tapmaster by the bowling alley assured me that option no longer exists. To my dismay cash is no longer accepted as well. You must pay with a credit, debit or a gift card. I will say that I like that they clean your card with wipes on every transaction. The experience generated is meant for little or no contact between us and employees. The concession stand lines once overflowing with patrons were one person deep. The menu is very limited offering no-refill popcorn tubs. Which segues into their self serve station, it is closed. Butter is handed to you in condiment cups. Drinks are handled solely by staff. I guess the thinking is if you touch something you have already compromised it. By implementing this the risk of exposure to both parties is reduced. A few questions did come to mind. Once restrictions are lifted will amenities be returned? Can theater staff keep up this OCD level of cleaning a day, a month a year? If a patron is coughing or sneezing can a theater turn them away? Before I go further down this rabbit hole that will bring me right into Tim Burton's estate I really appreciate all these measures. Seating was spread out with gaps to facilitate spatial distancing. Staff were hyper vigilante in wiping down seats, tables etc. Sure there was an uneasiness but once the lights dimmed and the movie started, it was like I kinda miss this. Judging from the turnout I know people are scared. The city is still hesitant. That time you were laughing your arse off with people next to you during "Girl's Trip" is gone. Or at least will be retransformed. For now this is our new normal. Whether you decide to go or wait until more restrictions are lifted depends on the level of trust you have for your fellow (wo)man. Which at the moment is probably low. I must admit in years past I have been on the fence with the Casablanca Theatre. However its strict policies in regards to health care measures means it values its patrons and employees safety. Will people come back I don't know. Only time will tell. ps. Dear, Coronavirus you're interrupting my movie and drinking time! I know you want to couch surf and eat Hot Pockets all day but I'm cutting you off! read more

This is my typical go to theater here in San Antonio and there isn't much to say other than it's a great theater. It's your standard theater but their recliner seats are very comfortable and make the movie watching experience so much better. They have a large menu, but I feel like it might be a little overpriced for the quality. I haven't tried out their bar yet but at some point, it will be something I do. read more

We do not go to the movies often especially since Covid but we just started getting back into it on occasion. We went to the premier of the Valet and had such a good time we made a point to go back to see Maverick. It was luxurious because the theater we were in had the recliners. There was so much room that even having someone right next to you, did not seem like it at all. It was super nice to have some wine and watch a movie. I'm excited to go back... and of course the movie was great! read more
