The new waiting lounges which opened this past summer where the old snackbars used to be at the end of each hall are nice, but they usually have a news channel on the tv, which isn’t hte best thing, particulary if you’re there with little kids early on a holiday or a weekend morning and the anchors are talking about things that little kids have no interest in.
And then they bring you just the food, no napkins, no condiments, no straws, unless you ask for them as part of your order, which is kind of silly – you’d think that would be common sense. They clearly don’t want you to order from Chatters, only from the snack bars. The Directors Hall’s are nice, but the wait service in those halls leaves a lot to be desired.
But that was the ONLY bad experience we had at Chatters, and we’ve been there a number of times. We all complained to the main offices and got freebies for a future meal. We waited for almost an hour, unable to get the attention of the other waitresses, many of whom were serving customers who had arrived long after we did, before we finally got up and left. The waitress came, got all huffy when she realized we weren’t ordering from the bar, took our food order, took almost 15 minutes to bring us our drinks, and then never returned to our table. We had a very nice waitress and she made sure we had our food and drinks at our table with enough time to down them and still make it to the theater in time for the coming attractions.Ĭounter that with the following weekend: when we went to see Iron Man, we got there with an hour and 10 minutes to spare.
Here’s an example- when we went to see Forbidden Kingdom this spring, we had 35 minutes to spare before the show, but wanted real food, so we went to Chatters. The revamped food court is better than what they used to have, and Chatters is an absolutely FANTASTIC place to have a quick meal before a movie, most of the time… I have to say when they began renovating it in 2007 I was worried that it would get too “upscale” for this mostly blue-collar town, but those worries have been unfounded. We consider Showcase Revere our “home theater” since it’s only a ¼ mile from our house.
