Nostalgic and not appreciate it for what it is. He’s driving our fire in Field between we’re blessed to have one on the cape. The history to it and original intermission and introduction. Makes you feel like your way back in time although the food is very good much better this year.

This was my first real drive through experience. I had been to pop up drive-in locations that were set up with a cheap projector and small screen for small events.But this place is authentic, it's been running for decades. It has bathrooms and a large selection of snacks that aren't too expensive, especially if you're comparing them to large theater chain pricing. But they also just let you bring your own food and snacks as well.They place your car in a row that's appropriate for your vehicle. So large vehicles go farther in back, while smaller sedan types are closer to the screen so the bigger cars don't block their view.They also have a beer garden that we didn't try, because it was too early in the season. But looked lovely.After figuring out how to keep the radio on in the car without turning the car engine/ headlights on, you get an amazing listening experience honestly. (Don't recommend using the ancient glitchy speakers, but they are adorable to keep around as a token of the past.)

Fun for the whole family. While the ticket prices are not inexpensive, it’s a worthwhile experience at least once while vacationing on Cape Cod. The snack bar prices are way more reasonable than a movie theater so you make up your savings there. There’s a throw back nostalgic feeling to a drive-in theater that cannot be replicated elsewhere. Every kid should have that experience at least once.

Such a fun experience! They have a cute little concession stand where you can get nachos, hot dogs, hamburgers, fries and of course popcorn. They even sell bug spray which is a MUST! Loved it.

Love coming here! Popcorn is always fresh, service is friendly & it’s always clean. In between movies the staff hustles to clean up any spills, so it’s never gross. Is also more affordable than the big chain theaters.

I cannot recommend a place enough. We watched a double feature, and it was worth more than the price. They had popcorn, mini golf, and even T-shirts. Each spot had little radios, they weren't very loud, so if you want extra sound, definitely bring your own or listen to the car radio.

I'm actually only reviewing this for the Flea Market that's held on Saturdays and Sundays (and a couple of Wed. and Thurs). Interesting mix of cheap import stuff, original art/ craft and traditional antique/flea junk.Cheap admission (I think it was $4 car load, or $1 walk/bike in). My favorite was a vendor who had a hat embroidery machine, where I got a custom Gnurd hat made!. The concession stand is open for snacks/lunch, and there's an Adult section (bar) for grownup drinks.We go every time we're in the area, and it's always fun, whether we buy anything or not.

Ridiculously rude theater attendants. Bought almost $70 worth of snacks for myself and my party, they smiled not once. Every time I asked for something else they looked as if I was an inconvenience. While serving popcorn they didn't wear gloves they used another bucket which is a food handling issue, because the bucket was letting in popcorn that was rubbing all over this girl and guys hand and stirring it into the old popcorn be served. Their bathrooms are super disgusting they have to be cleaned better there is left over dry mess on the walls and pipes of the toilets, believe me this was every stall. The chairs inside the theater feel as if they've never been cleaned they're sticky as well as the floor. Bring a sweater because it's freezing cold. This isn't the first time I've gone here either. Ive gone here sense I've moved here and its ALWAYS like this. The help was never rude before now that was the last straw I'm driving extra 15 mins to Dennis Movies. Someone has to call health department or there has to be a supervisor whom will check on this theater. These children whom run the place aren't qualified. Will add pictures another day I go and I promise it will be the same as I describe it now. This is my very first review but it's that bad I wanted the owner to be aware

A nice outdoor movie theater! They have the old speakers you can put in your car or listen on the radio. It can get pretty buggy at night :(

Very nice drive-in with a strong 50's feeling. The original speakers from 1957 can still be used which adds to the experience. The food is ok and the pricing reasonable. Overall great place for a nice evening in Cape Cod

Capacity decreased for current pandemic. Park every other space. Snack bar is relocated to over by entrance and port-a-potties with hand sanitizer are available in the middle. Sound system worked great. Staff friendly and knowledgeable, they will tell you where your car type can park. Parking spaces well marked.Screen is easy to see. Good double features

We do this every year on vacation! The double show is so much fun, even in the rain! The concession area is a nice added addition when you need food or ice cream between movies

Get the chicken nuggets! Best ever!(and I'm VERY serious about my chicken nuggets 🤣)The perfect nostalgic ambiance, especially if you deck out the bed of your truck or car with comfy pillows & blankets.The moon rose over the parking lot as soon as the movie started, at Dusk.We saw shooting stars above the movie screen.It doesn't even matter what movie is playing, going to the Wellfleet Drive-Inis always a great time.

Return to an age gone by. A night of fun with family or an evening out with that special someone. Enjoy the time travel to a great way to enjoy the big screen. Not many left. Don't miss out. Go.

The best and most nostalgic place. Obviously we are professionals. It’s a blowup bed for the kids but even just if you want chairs lol be plenty to enjoy a movie with the family. The food has gotten much better to.

Flea market always has something you're looking for, pay extra for the antique or less if they are just getting rid of stuff. Always barter and walk away, you can mull it over and come back.Cheap knockoff Chinese imports, Cape Cod branded clothes, 'tobacco' pipes, old tools, toys, paintings, folk art, food, water fountain, beverages and beers.You could probably spend all day there if that was your thing and it was packed with vendors, looking through every table for that gem of a purchase you didn't know you needed until its gleam caught your eye. Break for lunch and then go through to buy all the stuff you decided on getting.Don't forget sunscreen, water bottles, for the kids and comfortable shoes. Careful on the playground, guaranteed there have been some merry-go-round induced concussions or fatalities.

Buying tickets online was very convenient! They play two movies a night; you can stay for the second or leave during the intermission. It seems that each double feature plays for two nights, then they switch to another set of movies. Picture and sound quality (connected in via radio) were great. The snack bar was very convenient- they have hot foods, traditional movie theater popcorn and candy, and ice cream treats. The bathrooms were also relatively well kept, despite the large number of people.

Come on, how can you not LOVE going to the drive in movies.During season they have first run double features.And it’s actually a very nice screen and the sound is good coming through your radio.Of course their ads are from the 50s. (And probably the food too).

What a nostalgic experience. The fun in packing the family up, getting on the road and heading to the drive in. Jaws and the minion movie were on for the night. And oh how the concession stand adds to the atmosphere of an old school drive-in.

Was able to take myself and all 4 kids for less than going to theater. Parked when gates open at 6:30pm, went mini golfing ($3.50per child, $5 for adults) and ate at concessions before movies started. Very organized with lots of helpful staff.

5 minutes into the movie the fog rolled in, screen went black. After reaching out, they responded quickly and resolved the issue with fog passes. Great service and would definitely recommend coming to this drive in.

This place is awesome! Original 1950's drive-in. I haven't missed a summer on the Cape in 40 years & have been here nearly every year since the mid 80's. And now I get to share this experience with my kids just like I did with my parents & grandparents. Truly a gem & a must-do at least once while on the Cape.

I remember seeing Moonraker here in 79, and now each summer I take my family to the drive-in. The car speakers I think are the same from the seventies, as is the food... and while none of it is thrilling in and of themselves, as an experience, totally worth it. You can tune your car radio to get better audio, and you can bring a cooler with your own dinner and drinks, which helps. Bring some lawn chairs and bug spray, and have a night of it. Double-Features even! Not ideal for a quality movie - but def fun for a night out seeing something silly where you can zone in and out as you prefer.

Great experience for the family. Some sound boxes need to be replaced or fixed. Overall good time.

Amazing movie experience. Great for family nights, kids especially love it.Your vehicle should not be running during the movie. For the sound, the radio should be tuned to their station or you could bring one speaker from the adjacent pole and hang it on your passenger side door (on the gap created when you roll down the window).If you have a party of more than 2 people, you could take camping chairs and set them up in front of the car. I also recommend taking a bug spray if you choose to sit outside your vehicle.There's a food joint which serves fast food like hot dogs, fries, pop corn and soda.

Been coming to this place since the early 70's or whenever they opened , whichever came first.The main reason I visit the Cape (from Virginia) is just for this special place that has many fond memories. Even the time I got busted for my friends smuggling me in in their trunk.

We had to park in the last row because of roof cargo box which is kinda far from the screen but still enjoyed it a lot. Great experience for reasonable price!
