Regal Cinemas Avalon 12

Saw The Revenant great movie BTW my son purchased tickets ahead no standing in line we walked right in our tickets were scanned right from his iwatch no fuss. Once we found our seats I went to the concession long lines but moved quickly I purchased medium popcorn and large Coke burned a 20 but that’s nothing out the ordinary.
Seating is comfortable lean back and relax. Theatre was clean no complaints there.
Arrive a little early for parking
They also have a bar for those who would like a drink during. Great scenery and shopping if you have the time to explore Avalon.
You’ll enjoy it. Cost is a little more than some Cinemas but worth it.

The theater wasn’t clean! There was trash and popcorn all over the seats We were to sit in. Very disappointing considering what it costs to see a movie these days.

Recliner seats, enough said. I love the assigned seats, no BS for people who can’t get to the movie on time.

A+++ for Avalon Regal Cinema!!! Thank you Kim and the two gentlemen behind the counter and the other one at the ticket stand who all made our anniversary night a wonderful event at the movies! It was our 24^th anniversary and we decided to watch Spectre. As we have never been to Avalon Regal before, husband and I got so excited picking out our own seats on the display screen. More excited we were almost only people there with one other person in almost completely empty theater!!! The best part came when we wore closed caption glasses and could actually read the words with the movie. Or was it the relaxation of being seated in the most comfortable reclining chairs while watching James Bond Sprectre. We had a blast and plan to return to watch Star Wars although we think it will be really busy so maybe we will luck up again with the seats going during a workday!

The recliner seats are completely worth the bump in price. It’s like business-​class theater.
My son got us front row. It was spectacular.

The single worst theater experience I’ve ever had. Sure, the seats recline — you need them to since you’re almost literally touching the bottom of the screen. I can’t believe they actually sells these as seats to a movie. I guess I could have logged on 3/​days ago and reserved seats (all are reserved) — but I thought being here 45 minutes in advance was enough.
Ticket machines that don’t explain what your looking at, printer jams (meaning I have to wait 10 minutes for a clueless employee to try and figure out how to fix it — then acts like I’m the problem!)
Sometimes automation IS NOT the answer– and this is one of them!

The Avalon mall is an upscale experience to begin with and this Regal theater, although ordinary from the perspective of say the greasy food options
And the lack of a Coke freestyle machine, is top notch for a two hour experience.
Paid valet parking helps keep parking frustrations at bay, after all, this is an upscale mall with wow factor restaurants, shops and stores built-​in. So yes, indulge and splurge on the valet and get the v.i.p. Treatment, even if you just came here for the movie.
Reserved advance seating for online bookings, full reclining couches for two– and I mean fully reclining, including the sole of your shoe for a tall guy reclining, imax giant screens and a superior digital sound system make this theater one of the best movie experiences in greater Atlanta.
Although a bit far, this is a perfect impress-​your-​date upscale mall where dinner at one of those hipster eateries next door and a movie on the reclining couch of the regal theater is a necessity, go for it!

Only plus is that they had reclining seats. Besides that, the food was overpriced and wasn’t even prepared correctly. The place is quite messy and not as clean as it should be. Just go for the movie, nothing else is really worth it.

Can someone say, reclining seats? The age old problem of having to put feet up on the back of the seat in front of you is solved.
This very new movie theater had all the major movies playing, although that is no surprise from a Regal.
We came to watch Mission Impossible — Rogue Nation (which was fantastic, by the way). Seating is assigned, so we selected our seats when purchasing the tickets at the ticket counter. As it was only 10 minutes until the show on a Friday night, there were limited seats, but somehow we ended up with 5 seats together in a middle row, albeit toward the end of the row. I had a little difficulty figuring out how to push the seat back (it is easier when you have a little light, which I didn’t have the luxury of, being Asian time LATE and all), so I left the movie with a little crick in my neck.
Overall though, I had a great experience. My friend noted he would definitely make the drive for reclining seats. Although, $ 13.50 for a movie ticket really hurts my heart and reminds me of what could have been. Thanks, Obama.

Really really nice movie theatre! Lazy boy style oversized chairs. This AMC is located in the beautiful Avalon shopping area in Alpharetta.
They hot dogs, nachos, and the usual
Movie theatre food. They also have a bar area so if you arrive early or not ready to go home u can get a nice drink.

At first I’m thinking, how can all these people be on a 3 star with a brand new Regal Cinema?
Once again Unilocal got it right, and once again, all of the reasons are pretty well listed in the reviews already. So I’ll keep it short.
The place is dirty, bathrooms smell awful, the theatre itself didn’t appear to be cleaned well between showings. It’s run by teens, and the service is almost on par with that, except we stopped at the bar and they informed us not only could we get better food there but they would bring it to our theatre. That was nice, along with the lounging seats, but doesn’t save it from all its negatives — including the weird blue light along the side of the screen that is just annoying. Also, the food was not really that good. It’s pretty much the same type of things you could buy and microwave at home. Why don’t they take a tip from all the new ‘Movie Grill’ type places and make rational food menu choices along with rational pricing?
Yeah I gave it three stars, but I probably wont go back, the new cinema at North Point is a much better option, IMO. And the lounging seats are even better. If I’m going to drop a small fortune on a 2 hour experience, it better have me on a 4 or 5 star.

Maybe I’ve not been spoiled enough, but Avalon’s Regal Cinemas is *incredible*. It’s like watching movies at home, except you have to be acceptably dressed. (Maybe they’d let me wear my pajamas, but I’m not going to push it.)
My family *love* the reclining seats, mini-​loveseat settings, and tray tables. I love that you have assigned seating. Hubby and I like the bar and that you can take your cocktails into the theater with you.
Does it get better? I am having issues with my Regal Rewards card and wish I could get a ticket to a movie that comes out Friday on the previous Saturday, but if that’s the worst of my problems, I’m doing pretty well. Hand me the popcorn and my margarita– the show is starting.

Aside from the AMC in Phipps plaza, I don’t remember reclining chairs at a movie theatre but this place has it. Sitting in these chairs made it enjoyable to watch a movie.
Also, like SMGs, you get to reserve your seats so you do not have to rush in early to find the best seats available. Very convienent overall.

It’s hard to decide if I like this Regal theater better or the new AMC theater attached to North Point Mall. Both theaters have definitely set the bar for a more elevated movie-​watching experience.
The seats at this theater seem to be a little more comfy and I like how they have a swinging table for each seat attached to the seat arm, even if it feels a lot like those old desks I had in college. There’s only way one to control the seats vs at AMC, you have 2 ways to control how you recline your legs and how you tilt your seat back.
Bathrooms are ok. They’re new now and still suffer from employee neglect just like any movie theater. It could’ve been cleaner.
Service, I actually got to see a manager get ugly in our theater because some ticketholders didn’t have assigned seating. He could’ve been nicer despite how frustrating it was and how they had to stop the previews for us to resolve seating. He easily made it up to the rest of us by offering free refills on drinks/​popcorn.
Relatively, the theaters seem to be kind of small but it’s probably because the armchairs are huge. The sound is still pretty good, but I think I’ve become spoiled by AMC Prime, which has been probably THE best movie experience I’ve ever had.
I’d come back to this movie theater if I’m in the area. Quick tip: the best/​fastest way to access the Regal theater is through the Westside Pkwy entrance to the Avalons. It’s just too many turns and such through the Old Milton Pkwy entrance.

This is by far one of my favorite movie theaters. It is in a great location, there is a bar and concession stand, it’s clean, and the chairs are phenomenal!!! I could have slept in the reclining chair :) This movie theatre also has large space for walking room, and a desk sort of table to put your food and beverages.
We came on a Tuesday afternoon therefore it wasn’t super busy, and that’s just the way I like it. My friends ordered our tickets in advance and you are able to choose your seats. A great perk! We ordered 2 drinks from the bar, and also ordered the cinnamon bites from the concession stand.
My friend and I saw Aloha at 2pm and it was a good movie. Usually movie theaters bathrooms are gross, but not this one. They keep it in pretty good shape. There is also a dyson hand dryer that I like. It not only cuts down the use of paper towels, but also helps the environment. Overall I will most definitely be back. You can’t beat a great location, good customer service, and a concession that also has a bar attached to it. :)

First time at this theater this weekend. Great experience. Large reclining leather seats, tray tables with cup holders, and a huge screen. Each theater only holds maybe 50 people, with two seats paired, wide aisles and plenty of space between seats. No stumbling over anyone’s feet or sharing an armrest with a stranger — yay!
Buy tickets in advance on the website, choosing your seats, and you’ll get the best seats before they sell out. Or just buy at the window and the cashier will let you pick from an electronic ipad-​like thing. Seats in the middle or back are best. Front row nearest the screen is really too close for comfort. Be careful about which direction is front.
Concessions include a bar area with alcohol, a small hot food menu of stuff like hot dogs and burgers, and the usual expensive popcorn, candy, sodas. I didn’t get anything so can’t speak to that, but probably wouldn’t bother with the hot food — there’s better options in Avalon for before or after the movie. They don’t deliver food/​drink to your seat, and I prefer that because it eliminates disruption during the movie.
Cashier was super friendly. Bathrooms are numerous and clean. The theater and seats themselves were very clean. Sound was not too loud.
Tickets are a bit pricey at about $ 9-​$ 13 depending on type and time. Tip — buy Regal discount tickets at Costco in advance for only $ 8 each, good for any show here.

*update
After several comparisons this theatre wins hands down. They DO NOT have the GOD-​AWFUL Coke Freestyle machines so you can get a coke that actually tastes like coke. At the Northpoint AMC last week I just finally gave up and went and got a coke from their bar just to avoid the Freestyle machine.
The seats here recline farther and they are roomier. There’s also much more aisle space so you don’t have to pull your feet up when people walk past.
Just a better experience all the way around.

Screen was huge for a non-​IMAX screen. Seats are spaced out and reclining — amazing seats — similar to AMC Phipps Plaza.
Not much else to say — but I would say this is one of the top 3 cinemas in Atlanta alongside Cinebistro Brookhaven and AMC Phipps Plaza.

Just watched the Imitation Game here and had a nice time. Here’s the breakdown.
Screen: Standard theater screen. Not sure what their tech is but it didn’t blow me away and it didn’t bother me, so it’s ok. I would say though, if you wanna watch the new Hobbit (or other movie like that) in 3D this might not be for you.
Theater: Very intimate with comfortable recliners placed 2 by 2 and generously spaced. It’s a great date night experience because of this but I am not sure it’s a great place to bring the kids or a large group of friends.
Food: Horrible, avoid. Imagine if McDonalds tried to make TGI Fridays menu and you’re coming close. There are better options at Avalon, go there.
Drinks: Nice selection for booze, didn’t have their mixed drinks but they looked decent. I was surprised at the high end champagne on the menu.
Booking process: Super easy. I bought tickets on Fandango and just walked right into the theater with no hassle or problem. Selecting your seat online means you don’t have to get there early to get the seats you want, that’s awesome for me as I hate waiting in line for movies.
Service: People were super friendly and it was easy to get what we wanted in a timely fashion, especially important when ordering drinks or anything before a movie.
Price: For a high end theater the tickets were really reasonable. Good value for money.
Overall I gotta say this is a great experience if you want to see a movie in comfort and with the least amount of hassle. I don’t like it when they serve food in the theater and there’s all the coming and going. AMC’s version of this is horrible and you can’t really enjoy your movie. Here, the food is horrible (FYI so is AMC’s) but at least the servers don’t bug you and you don’t feel weird not eating in the theater. It seems their focus really was on creating a comfortable theater to enjoy your movies and they have succeeded at doing so.

I love this movie theater. This Regal movie theater comes all equipped with recliner seats. I’ve already been to this movie theater twice. They had a deal opening where each ticket bought also comes with small popcorn and small drink each. I think the week it opened, they had $ 2 movies and $ 2 popcorn and drinks to raise funds and bring awareness of several charities. These promotions are great to have to use to promote the new shopping center and movie theater.
FOOD:
— Steak Quesadilla $ 9 || I think this tastes like a standard quesadilla. There wasn’t much special about it. It was just cheese and finely chopped pieces of steak. There wasn’t much content in it. It’s supposed to be served with sour cream, but my order didn’t come with it. However, I don’t mind it missing sour cream as I hate sour cream. I was given a side of salsa for my quesadilla. This entrée does not come with a side, but you are welcome to request a side for an additional up charge.
— Bacon Cheeseburger $ 11|| Winner of the night meal. I think this burger was pretty good especially for movie theater food. The patty is a thick angus beef topped with bacon, lettuce, and tomato in between buns. This entrée comes with a side of these choices: chips or for an additional $ 1 up charge, you can have regular waffle fries or sweet potato waffle fries. The fries were crunchy just how I like and expect my fries to be made. The fries remind me of a slimmer version of Chick-​Fil-​A French fries. Very tasty. I think they should add a variety of sides such as side salad or cup of fruit. However, I know it probably isn’t the best idea as they would have to shop for those items and ensure that it’s selling so that it won’t be a waste of money and the self life for those items are short. I think side salad is more doable than side fruit as they do have salads on their menu. It’s just an idea to maybe use in the future. Currently, I think people eat before catching a movie at the theaters anyways and there are a lot of restaurants in the Avalon shopping center. I don’t think many people realize there is actual food in movie theaters.
— Blue Pineapple $ 10 || frozen drink that can also be request on ice. The manager made it very nice as it was strong. Very good drink.
— Son of a Peach Beer $ 6.50 || very great beer on tap. It is served chilled and filled to the rim. You can smell the scents of peach before even tasting the beer.
AMBIANCE/​SERVICE:
I’ve only experienced this movie theater late at night at their last showing both times I’ve been here. The staff are always friendly and actually and genuinely smile at you which makes you feel welcomed. I think this adds to why I keep coming back even though ticket prices are $ 14 each. The bar next to the concession stand is where we placed our order for our food. We are very happy that they serve real food here as we were not interested in having popcorn, pretzel, or mini-​corn dogs for late dinner. Both the bartender and manager on duty are friendly as they had easy going conversations with us and made sure we had the best and that we were taken care of. If we didn’t like something, they would be happy to re-​make it or address it. The great thing about this bar is that you are allowed to sample the beer before deciding on one to order. We placed out order and within 10 to 15 minutes, our order was ready and brought out by the professional looking chef (decked in chef gear and in white) and packed in to-​go brown containers so that we can move into the showing of our movie. We made it in time to watch our movie when it started. The seats in the movie theater are very comfortable and can recline. You can also push up and adjust the elbow rests. Each chair comes equipped with a table that is adjustable. It is very spacious between rows and everything is new and clean. It’s a great movie theater.
Overall, I will continue to frequent this movie theater as it is my first time experiencing recliner seats in a movie theater. I come back here because they know and account for the little details that make the movie experience so much better.
