Enjoy a Night Out at These Dine-In Movie Theaters in Scottsdale & Greater Phoenix
There isn’t a more timeless pastime than heading to the local movie theater to watch the hottest film on the big screen — the buttery popcorn, bubbly sodas, and hours of entertainment are appealing to moviegoers of all ages and stages of life.
However, as time has passed, some movie theaters have gotten an “upgrade” to offer even more appealing features, like reclining seats, creative cocktails, and seat-side service. These dine-in movie theaters are becoming increasingly popular for a fun night out — and plenty of them are popping up across North Scottsdale and Phoenix, Arizona.
Dine-In Movie Theaters in Scottsdale & Phoenix
If you’re looking for a fun way to spend an afternoon or evening in Scottsdale, Arizona, consider visiting one of the following dine-in movie theaters for fabulous food and entertainment.
1. RoadHouse Cinemas
RoadHouse Cinemas is a locally-owned restaurant and movie theater experience in Scottsdale, Tucson, and Colorado Springs. Each location offers a fabulous restaurant menu created by an award-winning chef and a full-service bar serving wine, craft beer, and specialty cocktails.

2. Majestic Theaters
Majestic Theaters, located in Chandler, Gilbert, and Tempe, is one of the most popular dine-in theaters in Greater Phoenix. Each location has seven to nine theaters, so there are plenty of screens to show the most popular films — from family-friendly flicks to highly-anticipated action movies.
The menu offers classic movie theater treats and new twists on guest favorites, and all food and drinks are served at your seat. Some of the highlights on the menu include the El Diablo Burger, Well-Pressed Grilled Cheese, and the Snickerdoodle Skillet Cookie.

4. Harkins Lake Pleasant CINÉ GRILL
Harkins Lake Pleasant CINÉ GRILL is a brand-new dine-in movie theater in North Peoria.

Then, the servers will deliver your food right from the kitchen to your chair — called an “Ultimate Lounger” — while you’re watching the movie!
The menu is divided into movie theater classics (like popcorn), “previews” (appetizers), “features” (entrees), and “end credits” (dessert). You can also order cocktails, wine, beer, alcoholic slushes, and mocktails from the CINÉ BAR to enjoy during the movie experience.
