Flix Brewhouse Chandler

Cassandra at the bar is super friendly and this place is legit. Think Alamo Drafthouse but way better: more choices for food and their beer selection is on point. They have 6 of their own brews and you can even get a Crowler to take home! Recliners in the front few rows and table seats in the back. Enjoy my Chandler friends. Happy beers are $3 at the bar but inside the theater they are 4-5$ + 18% tip...

So happy they opened Flix Brewhouse in Chandler. This is the place where you can go to recline and watch movies while they serve you food and drinks. GOOD food. I especially love the charcuterie board and the jalapeño poppers. I’m not a beer drinker, but my husband loves the craft beer. The staff are friendly, the service is prompt. We had my teenaged daughters birthday celebration at Flix a few weeks ago and it was great. I brought my own cake and ice cream, they kept it for us during the movie, and we celebrated on the patio after the movie. Complete with corn hole, a giant Connect4 game, tables, couches and a mod fireplace, it is the perfect place to party. They even gave us a little Groot dude with a button to push if we needed the wait staff. I do wish however, that they would get a good app. Right now you have to order your tickets through a website that requires you to enter your credit card every time. Also, the rewards system is very confusing. Hope you’re working on that Flix!

Wednesday half off tickets (~$7 after tax) + Happy Hour Appetizers and Drinks makes for a fantastic movie/meal experience for a great price. (3-6PM happy hour). They removed forced tipping, so I can happily 5 star now)

Theater is brand new and that's nice. I highly doubt the tiny tiny seats will last very long. They are seriously crampt, hopefully you know your neighbor! There is no cell service in the building which is good and bad. Kind of scary in case of an emergency. Food was mediocre. The cheese curds were super chewy. And the ranch was ranch flavored water. Why even bother at that point. The walls are thin and you will hear the movie next door to you, specifically the bass. I've never had that problem at AMC or Harkins. The theater chain had a promotional AD featuring substance abuser and know sexual assulter, TJ Miller. That was very unsettling and not family friendly. Our server was fabulous but the staff helping others behind us continued to bump our seats. The theater was pretty much empty for a Saturday. Staff out numbered patrons easily 100 to 1. I don't see this theater lasting. Maybe Downtown Chandler cannot support a movie theater?

This is the newest Drafthouse-style movie theater in the valley. Not to be confused with it’s older, cooler brother aka Alamo Drafthouse. The positives: comfy chairs, neat tables at each seat (unless you’re seat is a multiple of the number 6), and an absolutely stellar menu. I mean really, really good. The food is really the shining star of this place. Oh, and quite possibly the best movie theater sound system I have ever experienced. To my recollection this is the extent of the positives. The drawbacks existed before I even entered the theater. “Arrive as early as 30 minutes early but not late because the doors will be locked” (paraphrased). I mean I understand that it is absolutely in poor taste to enter a movie theater late, but “lock the doors”? Oh, and this rule meant nothing. People continued in well after the doors were “locked”. Service started at the bar and continued in to the theater and it was equally mediocre throughout. I have wondered if a service charge exists as a crutch to hold up mediocre service. And here, it was.

Flix Brewhouse is a fun venue to catch the latest movies at your local theater. They have a good variety of food options on their menu, unfortunately we ate before arriving. The home brewed beer options are abundant. The reclining seats are comfy.

We've been wanting to check out Flix, and I found out they do $5.25 movies on Wednesdays (yep!!). We wanted a low key night, so boom. Flix is pretty unique, in several ways. In lieu of a traditional concessions stand, they have a full blown bar and they brew their own beers. Don't worry though, they also offer a well-crafted (see what I did there?) selection of other beers. This is one of those theaters where you can order a full meal, so there are waiters assigned to sections and you order silently via a notepad and a call button. Because of this unique setup, Flix is very strict about being in the theater prior to your listed showtime, and they don't admit late arrivals. We were sitting in the lobby bar with 10 minutes to go, and were warned a couple different times we should get to the theater. When we sat down, there were 2 other people in the theater and we still had 15-20 minutes of previews to sit through, which was a bit annoying. This strict policy and the intensity of its enforcement is what made this review a 4 rather than a 5, but we will still come back. You really can't beat a $5.25 movie! In addition, they do all sorts of fun theme nights throughout the month, like family movie nights and retro movies. They also have a loyalty club, but you have to enroll online prior to your visit.

Wow, I went here for the first time with a friend the other night. We were treated with beyond exceptional customer service from Tristan. The food and beverages were that of a quality restaurant. The seats in the theater were very comfortable and I love the added swing tray that each seat had, making easy to enjoy your food while watching the movie. I have nothing bad to say about this place. I would definitely recommend and will be returning!
