Stars & Stripes Drive-In Theatre

The Eater Austin Guide to Drive-In Movie Theaters in Central Texas | Eater Austin

"If you want to recreate the traditional drive-in experience, this spot leans hard into nostalgia with throwback ticket booths and an on-site retro-themed restaurant called the 50’s Cafe; it’s also the only drive-in on the list showing current wide releases like Tenet and The New Mutants. The 50’s Cafe offers ballpark staples and playful touches like cardboard vintage cars for kiddie meals, and if you don’t want concessions here you can swing by Buc-ee’s one exit south on I-35. Note that Stars & Stripes explicitly does not allow alcohol, making it an ideal family outing or a safe way to see new releases outdoors." - Matthew Monagle
