Buckhead Backlot to reopen as Fork & Screen … and serve cocktails
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
The Buckhead Backlot, closed for several weeks for remodeling of its six screening rooms and kitchen, will re-open July 11 as the AMC Fork & Screen Buckhead.
Odd name, but the dinner-and-a-movie spot not only has new plush seating but will serve cocktails in addition to beer and wine. Admission will be limited to those 18 and older. Minors can enter only if accompanied by a parent or guardian.
In addition to food and drinks being served in screening rooms, the theater will have MacGuffins, a bar area with seating.
A sampling of the menu: burgers, wraps, grilled sandwiches, pizzettas, pasta, fried shrimp, appetizers and desserts.
A sampling of the cocktails: 16 specialty drinks, including margaritas, martinis, the requisite Cosmopolitan, and full bar selections.
The re-opening of the Fork & Screen follows the recent unveiling of the revamped, family-friendly Northlake Festival Movie Tavern in Tucker, which serves casual food and alcoholic beverages.
And another spot, Cinebistro, a dinner-and-a-movie theater from Birmingham-based Cobb Theaters, plans to open in 2009 in Brookhaven. It will cater to an upscale, adults-only crowd.
Do you like the revival of the one-stop dinner-and-a-movie concept? Do you plan to check out one or all of these places?
