"Dinner and a movie" is by far the most popular date idea, dating back almost one hundred years ago to the first black-and-white silent films. Over the years, movies changed with the addition of sound and, later, color, but it's been just recently that theatres modernized the cinema experience. For the longest time, you could snack on popcorn, candy, and soda from a concession stand during a movie, but now select theatres have complete restaurants that provide you with an upscale in-theater dinner. Called "dinner-and-a-movie theatres," they have also stepped up the game with comfortable seating as opposed to small, stiff chairs in regular theatres. Known for its luxurious lifestyles, it's no surprise that Miami has welcome this concept with open arms, and there are not one but several dinner-and-a-movie theatres in Miami for your dining and viewing pleasure.

Cinepolis

Escape the usual restaurants and theatres, and head to Cinepolis in Coconut Grove for your next date. Watch the latest movies on a Sony 4k projection while dining on delicious truffle fries, street tacos, and perhaps a coconut prosecco mojito, all while lounging in a plush, oversized leather chair. After the movie, feel free to stop in the lounge and grab a drink as Cinepolis prides themselves on their full bar and a gourmet concession stand.

Cobb Cinebistro ​

If you happen to be shopping at Dolphin Mall, make sure to go to Cobb CineBistro for their bistro-style food in their deluxe dinner-and-a-movie theater where you can find entrees like 12 oz. angus New York strip, shrimp macaroni and cheese, and fried chicken and waffles as well as popcorn, candy, and cold soda.

CMX Cinemas

Enjoy a top-of-the-line experience at Brickell's CMX Cinemas where you can sit back and recline in their cushy seats that are spaced fairly far apart so you have no interference  from the person sitting next to you. Every seat is adorned with a blanket in case it gets chilly, a station with a shelf for purses, and small table for your delicious dinner as well as your beer or wine glass.

Take dinner and a movie to a whole different level in Miami at one of these top dinner-and-a-movie theatres. For more date ideas in Miami, check out our Things to Do and Miami Restaurant pages. Also, register on 305area.com so you can connect with everything else in Miami.
