Cin for Your Supper

Montgomery Cinema ’n’ Drafthouse Opens

It’s a rule that there are separate dietary guidelines at the megaplex. In this alternative food pyramid, fruits, veggies, and whole grains give way to popcorn, slushies, and Raisinets.

Restore your nutritional balance at the Montgomery Cinema ’n’ Drafthouse.

The six-screen theater recreates the standard dinner and a show, serving Americana classics like steaks and crab cakes. Even the sips are upgraded — with microbrews, mixed drinks, and wines selected by the Washington Wine Academy.

Most orders are taken before the movie begins, so you can get your slurps and noshes out of the way, though servers do periodically check in to zap hunger pangs and refill empty glasses.

In addition to first-run films, Montgomery will host stand-up comedy on weekends and sporting events on the big screen. All with food.

Laugh at the movie, not your makeshift dinner.

Montgomery Cinema ’n’ Drafthouse, 11160 Viers Mill Road, Wheaton (301-949-9200 or montgomerydrafthouse.com).
