I take my family to the drive in as often as we can afford. Before the price went up from just…read morepaying for the car to paying a flat rate than extra for every person over the count of 5, we go as a large group with other family members and sometimes the kids bring a friend so we easily go over 6 people sometimes, we would go every weekend. Since the price change we go maybe once or twice a summer. The restrooms are nice to have and there is a line when the first movie ends, so be quick if you don't want to stand in line. We love to go as a family to experiance the movie in an relaxed and comfortable setting that we get from our truck bed made up with bedding and such, there are times the younger kids fall asleep before the end of the first movie, and would be heart broaken if we could no longer go do this great family activity. We love this part of La Grande and enjoy it very much.

They recently started hosting live music too. Great new sound system! The everybodyfields recently stopped here on their way to Portland, and they sounded great. A true ye olde towne gem.

Great theatre where you wouldn't expect to find it. They do a lot of popular musicals. Some of my…read morefavorites have been Annie Get Your Gun, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, Beauty and the Beast, Peter Pan. This is so much more than a little community theatre. Several of the regular actors and crew members are college students and graduates from the Eastern Oregon University theatre and music departments. The building is a historical treasure that has been lovingly restored with some updates to increase safety.

Absolutely one of our best experiences. My daughter was beyond excited expecially with so much…read moreauthenticity in the clothing. She wasn't expecting a full shoot out (nearther were we). Everything was so great, so memorable, My daughter dressed up and fit right in, all the volunteers (yes, everyone who took part is a volunteer) wer so kind expecially to the kids in the crowd. We can't believe we learned so much and in such a fun way too. Few helpful tips, we went middle of June and there were soooooo many mosquitoes idk if I just want thinking, or they just tend to eat me alive in the evenings only but bring lots of bug spray. There's 2 cars that have windows and 2 that don't so if it's a full ride be prepared dress appropriately depending on the time of year u visit. Like I mentioned earlier these are all volunteers, they make their clothing and provide their own weapons and blanks. The upkeep of the train and tracks is very costly so donations are very appropriate. Be sure to bring plenty of smaller bills and most of the town would prefer cash purchases as well. There's also a flea market held here so check for that. There's also mining for Gold lessons and some areas to try it first hand. If you find real Gold flakes you can keep up to 3 for 5$ per person because it's coming from an Oregon State Park. There is a lift on the train to help with any handicap needs, and on that note if you end up in Bakers City, OR (were we drove through to get here) is an amazing playground where inclusion of all ability types was number 1 in design. This entire experience was so great, worth Every penny for the steam engine ticket and worth the money we donated at the end.

This 'sports bar' fronts as an Italian restaurant and can use some work on their customer service…read more When seating guests, they don't ask whether you're there to watch sports, but after we were seated as a group for a family dinner, my auntie asked if they could turn down the obnoxious televisions and they said no, that guests were there to watch the game. We indicated that we were not, and would like to be moved. She left to check (?) only to return to advise that the televisions were all on the same remote. Others in the party dismissed it as an issue and decided to order. Management needs to take note and train hosts to ask which environment is preferred. There are too many neurodivergent people who can't handle the chaos, yet want to enjoy a nice meal. End rant. Meals were good all around, though my breaded steak bites were very salty and the au jus only added to my sodium intake. Great portions and flavor. Fresh herbs grown in a planter outside the front door. I'd gladly give 4 stars were it not for the noise and lack of consideration.

This event occurs once a year in February at the Fairgrounds in Walla Walla…read more Tickets in 2015 were $35 and for that you get as much crab as you can eat as well as cole slaw, beans and garlic bread.

There are probably at least 1000 people at this event every year and everyone has a great time. You missed this event for 2015. Put it on your calendar for 2016.

Bring your…read moreown bib, crab crackers, table cloth, glasses, drinks and let the Lions Club serve up some fantastic tasting crab. Along with the plateful of crab (Dungeness), I also received a plateful of beans, garlic bread and coleslaw. Yes, two plates. The crab is served at exactly 6 p.m. as soon as the Master of Ceremonies gives a welcome. It was simply amazing that the 1,000 plus guests were served within a very short time. There were three windows of servers open and everyone just lined up and went through in an orderly fashion. The crab was among the best that I've eaten (and I've had a lot of crab over the years). I had a few bites of my beans, garlic bread and coleslaw, but I mainly concentrated my efforts on the crab. It is all-you-can-eat, so when this comes around again next year, bring an appetite and get there as soon as the doors open (usually around 4-4:30). Tickets are pre-sold. This is a casual event at the Fairgrounds building, but I did notice some guests were dressed up. Great for groups and truly a fun night out.
