Movie Tavern West 7th Street

Movie was great; theater is great. but THEY CHANGED THE MENU AND IT NOW OFFICIALLY IS VERY VERY BAD. Everyone at the theater tonight agreed — people were talking across the theater to each other — they have removed anything you used to order and even now the nachos come with some gross chili/​squashed bean «spread», jalepenos are extra now, meat is extra but you cannot get the ground beef taco meat. the «lettuce» you get — maybe 2 tablespoon fulls at most. nasty and disgusting.

I normally love coming here. The location is ideal because it’s surrounded by lots of shops restaurants and free parking on nights and weekends. The menu options are very good as well. The service however is sub par.
Tonight I asked my server for some water with lemon. After waiting 10 minutes I found myself still waiting. My husband and I were very early and the theater was still practically empty so I couldn’t understand what was taking so long. So I asked him again for a water with lemon… another 10 minutes goes by. He FINALLY arrives with my water but there is no lemon. I was really annoyed at this point, so instead of saying anything to him I just went to the bar to get my own lemon.
I ordered a bottomless brownie sundae that had practically no ice cream in it. He NEVER once came to check to see if everything was okay. At this point the movie still hadn’t started, so there was no reason not to check on us.
The servers here are normally nice, but the service level is not the greatest.
It’s the location and the menu that keeps me coming back. And then there’s the hope that the manager will bring the staff where they need to be.

Got there when movie started — no server came for 20 minutes. Then we ordered and an hour later still didn’t get food — waiter said he didn’t know where food was — he doesn’t control cooks. 20 minutes after that asked for manager — «Shiela» came out — offered no assistance even said «I don’t know how long it takes to make chicken so I can’t tell you when you’ll get food». An hour and 45 minutes they brought us cold food with no apology and manager never came in.

I came here one friday night for a
event to see that Chanting Tatum movie where he doesn’t wear a shirt (dont recal the name lol). Um well the theater was kinda dirty. The seats were not really comfortable at all.
It ended up being a group of 10 of us. The waiter seemed less than interested to serve us and toom forever to get all of our orders. I believe I ordered nachos. It took them about 30min to get the nachos and they were stale and tasteless. I did not tip the guy because he barely came around for service, even with pressing the button.
Overall condition of the theater was not great and the bathroom was dirty too. This was last summer so maybe things have changed, but I have not been back since.

THIS is insane! My kids won’t even eat this gross $ 10 pizza. Mine was disgusting too. Burnt and extremely sad excuse for pineapple. How do you mess up pineapple!!! You’ve got to be kidding with these prices! This used to be my favorite theater. Used to be packed every time I came in here. No wonder we are literally sitting alone in here. I’ll never be back. 3 people. 2 kids 1 adult at 3 in the afternoon. (No matinée prices!!! 7.50 each) And I spent $ 100.00 I hope you go out of business. Pretty sure you will.
Only good thing I have to say is that the movie was good. Even with the distorted sound because you have it turned up too loud, and our waiter was very nice! Hope he finds a better job. I changed my review from last years 4.5 stars to a one! If I could do less, I would. I feel extremely ripped off!
Edited to add:
For the first time in my life, I actually spoke to management and shared my concerns, she refunded half my bill. She was very nice and understanding. Sadly, I’ll not ever return. I miss the way it was. :(

The biggest disappointment was the fact that we got our kids up to the theatre for breakfast and a 10AM movie only to find out that they serve breakfast ONLY for the very first movie of the day… so we begrudgingly ordered lunch food. That’s something that REALLY should be denoted on their site with the breakfast menu.
The food was mediocre at best. My wife said her stuffed portobello tasted like dirt and she barely choked it down because she was too hungry to wait for something else. The uncomfortable chairs and lack of stadium seating on top of the food issues make this promising place a big disappointment.

Not bad. The food is good, nice seats. The parking on 7^th is a disastaer, though. If you don’t know about the validation and the layout of the neighborhood & garages, you’ll have a bad time. Don’t care for having to go up 3 escalators to see box office. Think I like the Hulen location better, but none them hold a candle to Alamo Drafthouse.

My boyfriend and I haven’t ever had a movie date (18 months) later we finally decided to go see a movie in the Theater! My BF said the movie tavern was the best theater in Fort Worth, so there we went!
Let me say… I’m not a fan! Don’t like the parking garage situation. A) if I was alone late at night after movie walking to my car I don’t feel safe. B) I hate having to get my parking ticket validated!
The seats were not comfy and really close to the next person. My tray was all kinds of jacked up and broken.
The waitress forgot the candy we order… Not a big deal we really didn’t need any candy.
I can tell you if the food was good or bad, we are BF we came.
The next movie we see will be at a good olé old school movie theater!

Best Movie Tavern location. If you have been to other movie taverns, you may not recognize it. The chipotle sliders are amazing and the servers are very great at making you comfortable.

I showed up around 10:15am for a 10:45am showing of concussion and noticed I was the only one there. The person who sold me my ticket was rude and only cared about her facebook post she was making. As I walk to theater 7, 4 – 5 employees are just sitting up against the walls talking about when they are going home.
I completely walked past the guy who was supposed to check my ticket and went into the theater. I ordered my food and made clear to the server what I wanted. The food order came out completely wrong. How can this be if im the only person in the theater. the food then takes another 20 minutes to come out. and its cold.
I will not be returning to this theater.

Horrible and rude ticket counter employees. I didn’t know that lightsaber’s were banned from their theaters and didn’t see the sign posted on it. Counter workers didn’t mention one word to me about it. The ticket collector had to tell me about it. When I confronted the counter girls about it she just slammed the sign down at me. I will never return!

I like this movie tavern the most.
It’s so nice in there, the first time I went I wanted to go up all the escalators and now I’m just like «okay I’m taking the elevator»!
Anyway, they don’t always have every new movie out because of the fact that this is the downtown location and it isn’t as big as hulen location contrary to belief!
The food is good and comes out in a reasonable amount of time. This place isn’t really packed until the weekend and even then the service is still so great! Definitely try the hurricane as a drink you won’t regret it!

We have been here a couple of times. The theater are a great size. I just wished they had recliners. We were impressed in the flavor of the food. The service is friendly.

We love the venue and the ability to buy tickets online and select your seats. We have been disappointed more than once with the food and beverage service at this place.
We went to the 7:10 pm showing of Mad Max last night. The server Austin was very courteous and promptly took our order. My girlfriend ordered water, her daughter ordered Mr. Pibb and I ordered a Revolver. We also placed a food order the Game Day Platter and the Nachos Libre. It took 20 minutes for the water and Mr. Pibb to show up. The food came out 45 minutes from the time we placed the order. Guess what, it was cold and no silverware. I asked the server where my Revolver was and he said there was a mix up with the ticket. How about calling your manager to make it right? After 50 minutes the beer finally appeared.
If Movie Tavern is going to offer a food and beverage service and charge a premium, how about you provide the kind of service you would expect when your or your staff go out to eat.
Just spoke with Eric (manager), very willing to set things right. He said they were not prepared last night and dropped the ball as managers. I respect honesty and not passing the buck. He will keep our business.

I like movie tavern because it is cheaper than amc, rave, cinemark. BUT that’s with a student discount which cinemark doesn’t give.
I recommend parking to the parking garage closes to the movie theater and LA fitness. Take the elevator to the 4^th which takes you to movie tavern (sign in the elevator). Don’t forget your ticket to get validated!
If you bought your tickets online there is a self service machine that will print it out for you. You can also go to the box office where they’ll validate your parking ticket. A little bar with plenty of bar tables to hang out at.
Once you enter your theater, you’ll see black comfy chairs and tables attach to them. Below the seats is you seat number it will be glowing. Service button on the table.
Came to watch furious 7. I ordered a pasta… Spinach ricotta, the portion was really small, but it was good, next time I’ll order something more fulling. My boyfriend ordered a chicken sandwich, big portion, tasty!

Now I have to say that my experience here was probably one that most people would never have. My friend and I decided to go see a movie, a matinée specifically, on like a Wednesday or something. Basically, we were the only ones there and (I mean in the entire building) so we were waited on hand and foot. It was super nice.
Our servers were the
and made sure we had everything we needed. As usual, the food was good. Nothing to go home and brag about, but certainly not bad either. My friend took part in their drink special and got a long island tea I think, either way I tried it and it was pretty darn good. That’s saying a lot coming from me since I don’t drink. The movie played flawlessly and it was an enjoyable experience overall.

This is my favorite Movie Tavern location! It’s nice and in a great location. The entrance from the parking garage is great too. I come here often!

Nice clean theaters compared to their other locations and great service! This is one of our favorite theaters to catch a movie at.

I was a movie tavern virgin until Valentine’s Day. We came to watch the disappointing fifty shades of grey here. We pre purchased our tickets which seemed unnecessary since their line was non existent and they didn’t sell out either. Upon arrival the place is extremely clean and well maintained. Servers are friendly… Our drink order arrived messed up but they corrected it quickly. The popcorn is not the traditional buttery yummy snack I am spoiled to. It was more the pop it yourself kind you eat at home… nothing to Unilocal about! The movie was disappointing but that’s not the theaters fault. Overall I would come back to watch a movie and have a drink… not so much for the popcorn and snacks. The chairs are super comfy though.

The overall environment was great. Except the food was a disappointment. My boyfriend and I ordered a plate of Calamari and a plate of Mahi Mahi Tacos. The portion of calamari was pathetically little while the Mahi Mahi tacos had tiny pieces of fish chunks in there. And I found out instead of putting the pico on the tacos, they put it on the side that made it look like a «side» slaw but really they just neglected to put the slaw on the plate. It really felt like a rip off.
The movie was good, but that has nothing to do with the Tavern. I see many people are complaint about their food quality. It seems like they need to pay attention before it becomes a major cause to blow off customers.
