![]() ![]() We did not stay for the second feature since it was so late, but it seemed about 1/2 the guest did and the other 1/2 did not. It was super easy to see since the screens are raised up in the air. Once the sun started going down we all went to our seats and got set up to watch the movie. The kids loved the playground and throwing the football before the movie started. We were able to secure the last rental radio at the bar and will definitely bring our own next time so we don't have to worry about getting one. We then ventured to the bar and were impressed by the beer selection, although I would have liked more taps, it was quite extensive. ![]() ![]() We got nachos, pizza and sodas and they were all great. ![]() The concession line inside was gigantic and had everything you could want from a drive in, including pizza. We ventured to the pavilion and found a great spot to sit outside in the shade. There were several workers walking the lot ensuring that everyone was parking correctly and able to pack in without any issues. We were able to set up our chairs and leave them by the car without any issues. We paid and found a great spot in front of our scree with no problems. Upon pulling up about and 1 1/2 before the movie we were surprised to see that it was all ready hopping, but overly crowded. We finally had nice enough weather this weekend to see what it was all about. I think our whole team may be spending a lot of time at the Coyote Drive-In this summer – nothing beats the nostalgia of watching a movie on a big screen from the hood of a car.My family and I have been wanting to check this place out since we heard about it coming to our area. But remember that you’re really paying $8 for TWO movies so that’s only $4 a movie! Plus the cool experience of being at a drive-in. Pricing will stay the same as the Fort Worth location’s current prices: $8 for adults, $6 for children age 4-10 and kids 3 and under for free. They’re hoping to have the Lewisville location open just in time for prime drive-in weather, so look for news of the grand opening around May. The reason for the bigger vision? Coyote Theater execs believe they can expect 250,000+ cars to visit the drive-in annually with the five screens accommodating up to 1,367 cars. Named one of Fort Worth’s “hidden gems” by the Dallas Morning News, Coyote Drive-In provides an awesome outdoor movie-viewing experience.īut Denton County residents will no longer have to make the trek out to Fort Worth to enjoy the Coyote Drive-In experience because Coyote Theater LLC was recently approved by the Lewisville City Council to build a drive-in theater on the corner of Holford’s Prairie Road and Midway just a couple of blocks from the Sam Rayburn Tollway.Īnd the Lewisville location is planned to be even bigger and better than the Fort Worth location with five screens offering double features (versus Fort Worth’s three screens), an open-air pavilion, a kids’ play area and a 10,000-square-foot restaurant! And the owners are also working on plans to include a beer garden within the massive restaurant space! I can’t wait to check out some summer blockbusters at the drive-in next summer! How about you? Prices are presently set at $8 for adults and $6 for children 11 ages 4-10. Other amenities include a central open-air pavilion with seating, a kids play area and a beer garden. There will also be a 10,000 square-foot fast casual restaurant which will be open every night two hours before showtimes begin just after sundown. The drive-in will feature six different movie screens, each showing different double features. Last Monday night the Lewisville City Council approved an amended special use permit for the theater, meaning that construction can now begin in October with an expected completion of June 2016! After a very wet Spring and Summer, delaying construction, I’m so happy to hear that the project is back on track! Don’t worry, everyone… I’ve gotten a couple questions recently about whether the Coyote Drive-In Theater of Lewisville is still actually happening. ![]()
