You have the option to either sit comfortably in your car and enjoy your flick, or bring lawn chairs to set up and kick back. My only complaint was the sun didn't go down fast enough, although I guess the anticipation adds to the excitement.
The actual movie watching experience was great. They were even happy to provide me milk for my child, which was the key to a successful backseat bedtime. I was surprised to see choices like Chicken BLT Salads and Tamales, and was wishing I could've indulged in more. Aside from tasty burgers and fries, they've got a wide variety of options. You can get a burger for $2.25, and although it is a little on the small side, it tastes great and has that old-fashioned-hamburger-joint taste, mmmm.
The Galaxy Drive In not only offers great admission prices for the whole family, but their concession stand is less expensive than a drive-thru food chain. For the price of $8/adult, you get to see not just one, but two feature films. Getting candy and refreshments is practically out of the question (at least for my frugal spending habits) because you can't find anything decent under $4, but the prices here are great! Although it is quite a drive from the Metroplex (about the distance from Dallas to Ft. The average cost of a movie in Dallas is $11. The staff is friendly and everyone really strives to give you that drive-in experience.īut let me back up and reiterate the affordable part. The Galaxy Drive In Theater in Ennis is a charming, and super affordable, excursion to enjoy with the whole family.
Although our crying baby was still a little distracting, it was nice to be able to actually go to a movie, and once he fell asleep in the back seat, it was like a date night without having to pay a sitter. Loud candy wrappers, crying babies, and text message alerts are all acceptable as long as your fellow car passengers don't mind. Maybe I'm just old fashioned, but I can't figure out why you wouldn't want to go see a movie where you can wear socks and snuggle under a blanket in the comfort of your own car. There just aren't many left and the ones that are still standing, struggle to stay in business. It is a sad fact that Drive-In movie theaters are quickly becoming a thing of the past.
