Flix Brewhouse, a Movie Theater with Microbrewery, Is Coming to West El Paso

A combination first-run movie theatre and dine-in microbrewery is coming to El Paso.

The Round Rock-based Flix Brewhouse announced it will be part of the new West Towne Marketplace located at I-10 and Paseo del Norte in Far West El Paso and will serve as the retail and dining development’s entertainment anchor.

Similar in concept to The Alamo Drafthouse where movie patrons can enjoy a dine-in movie experience, Flix Brewhouse sets itself apart with its in-house microbrewery. It's claim to fame from it's inception is that it's "America’s Cinema Brewery" and "the only first run movie theater in the world to incorporate a fully functioning microbrewery."

What that means to movie-goers is that they can enjoy dozens of beers on tap, many brewed in house, along with their munchies and the latest Hollywood blockbusters.

As far as the movie-watching experience itself, all 9 of the stadium seating auditoriums will be outfitted with the latest high-definition digital and audio technologies, and "proprietary luxury seating" which includes cushy high back chairs and moveable table tops.

The brewhouse cinema is expected to open in late 2018 or early 2019.
