Okay, so this is my first review ever, Im 32 and never had the chance to go to a drive-in theater before. My coworker told me to go check it out and Im really glad I did. First off, the convenience is awesome. My wife and I are new parents and wanted to go see a movie together, but didnt want to be those people with the crying baby in the theater. We brought the baby, our little yorkie (dont know of thats allowed or not) and had the best time. It was easily the best movie viewing experience Ive ever had and I was just laying in the back of my Jeep. The prices are awesome, $6 for adults, $5 for military and I think like $3 for kids, our baby was free of course. The biggest surprise for me was the quality of the picture. It was raining out the night we went and you couldnt even tell. Another side bonus was the concession stand. It is centrally located between the two movies (closer to screen 1) and the prices were so much more reasonable than the pricey indoor theaters everywhere. If the wife and I want to see a movie soon, we will be going back, even though the indoor theatre is less than 5 miles from my house. I hope this review doesnt make the place packed, but if youve never been to one, have small kids, just want something different to do for a night, Id say give it a try. We will be back soon!

I am 45 years old,have always loved the drive inns but in the last 13years my daughter and I have come to love them we have probably been to 5different ones well over 100 times together but this one is the best,BOTH financially and services ,it has well maintained lawns,the best food of the 20-30drive inns That I have ever been to,7day a week service as well as extra movies in the off season to keep you coming back.The one major difference is that they also have an inside theatre that lets you watch one of the screens rain or shine and it is attached to the food court,40tears of drive inns and this place is the best yet ,usually in season 3-4times a week

First they have premier movies on the same date as the Hollywood premiers. Second is the cost Im a senior $ its $5 to get in. Third They have 2 screens & You can go to the other screen if you want see a different movie than the one thats on ur screen. 4 the Snack Bar is full of delicious Hot Foods & Candy of course. I think that would be all you need. Theres tables & chairs that you dont have to eat in the car and clean restrooms. Nobodys Better then the Bay.

Excellent prices, food is typical for theater food. Dont expect restaurant meals here, but the prices are much better than the typical theater. The only reason Im not giving it 5 stars.....the bathrooms need to be cleaned more frequently on busy nights, and the mosquitoes can be miserable (bring bug spray). Though when attending outdoor events this time of year you should really expect annoying little insects to be a problem.

A great drive in. Nostalgic throw back to the sock hop 50s. Excellent food and ambience. Probable one of the last great drive ins in New York State sad to say. I would rate this as a 5 star. Minneto drive in in Fulton N.Y. then the Auburn Drive in in Auburn N.Y. one our favorite highlites in Alexandria Bay.

The cartoons during intermission are so reminiscent of the 1950s through the 1970s to see it in 2016 seems like going back to our childhood minus the grilling under the screen and swing sets. The food at the Alexandria Bay drive inn is pretty good too. The bathrooms are pn8ce as well.

We had an amazing time with our four kids, on a rainy night, while camping nearby. The drive-ins that were used to are expensive, dirty and all the concessions taste like butter…this place on the other hand was impressively clean and inexpensive. We loved this place!

Love coming here! Got to get there early to get a good spot, and I mean at least an hour! Gives you just enough time to get through the concession stand to get your awesome popcorn.

Cant beat the admission price and the concession food is reasonably priced and very good. Been many times and will continue in the future.

Whats not to love? Two movies for a fraction of the price as a corporate owned movie theater, full concession, and friendly staff.
