Street Food Cinema

My first experience was a double feature of Back To The Future 1 & 2 (score!) at Pasadena. It’s pretty awesome to watch a movie in the park with fellow BTTF fans! It kind of felt like a drive thru movie. They have speakers set up on each side of the park so you can be fully immersed in the movie.
There were about a dozen different food trucks, but expect to wait in line for an hour or so unless you arrive super early. The lines are beyond crazy an hour prior to the movie. I ended up choosing a food truck that wasn’t well known and was able to get my food within 20 minutes. Unfortunately, I forgot the name of the truck. You can also bring your own food as well. You can bring in alcohol (YAY), so drink responsibly! If you bring chairs, remember to bring the ones low to the ground as they will refuse the foldable camping chairs.
All in all it was a great experience. Just remember when you go, be kind and pick up after yourself. :)

Experienced double feature Back To The Future I and II. The ambiance was well worth it! I was surprised at how HD that blow up screen/​projector was. They had the whole area surrounded by speakers and their surround sound made the quality of the experience well worth it!
Set up: bring small /​low beach chairs. If you bring the taller ones, you will need to sit in the back or side behind others. Bring a beach Matt /​picknick cloth and blankets to keep you warm.
Dog friendly!
Food trucks sell out fast and lines are long (shorter during the middle of the movie)
Parking everywhere but can get extremely packed.
Awesome ambiance that night! I especially enjoyed that the crowd applauded key scenes from the movie regardless of how many times they’ve already seen the movie!

Saturday (Oct. 17, 2015) was my first experience with Street Food Cinema and it was great! The atmosphere was wonderful, the check in process was easy, the abundance of and variety of food trucks was great and, most importantly, the bathroom setup was great. Movie quality (screen and speaker arrangement) was really wonderful and added to the enjoyment of the movie. The time allotment per activity was well paced. I’m glad I went and will attend more events.
Definitely worth going.

I love Street Food Cinema. This trip it was for The Addams Family. Great food trucks, (really liked that they had churros this time) a great set up, I like the band before the show and audio quality is great. A fun way to watch a movie, hang out with friends and enjoy life.

What a great night! Elliot from E.T. Is in the house! Great food from @sonofabun and @streetkitchenLA great venue, dog friendly, great weather! Couldn’t ask for a better night in Pasadena!

I’m waiting in line for the Belly Bombz food truck, so why not write a review? It’s always a good time at Street Food. You can picnic on a blanket, in a low chair (I prefer my lounge chair), BYOB/​food, or buy from the various food trucks. Live music before the movie begins, and people watching. Fun fun fun! This is an annual tradition now and I look forward to it every year.

my first trip to a street food cinema event was this past saturday for dirty dancing in victory park. i was blown away. my sister and i had the time of our lives and are already planning our next movie trip! the fact that you can bring your own food and drinks, including alcohol, is a HUGE plus. no one was out of hand… everyone was there to have a great night. we met some fun people who sat next to us and overall i just can’t say enough wonderful things.
the cousin’s maine lobster truck was there and their lobster roll was DELISH. my sister got stuck waiting an HOUR after placing her order for the wise barbeque food truck which was ridiculous. they didn’t care at all either. her wait wasn’t even the longest… one gal had already been waiting 1.25 hours while my sister and i were waiting. awful. i hope they’re never invited back.
