GoDriveIn Roadhouse and Movies in Salt River is the perfect place to gather the kids for a fun night out, get cosy with your best buddies or slip away for a romantic date night with your significant other.
With the weather getting colder by the day as we head into winter mode, our seasonal social dilemma begins. Should we stay home, cuddled in warm, cosy clothes, armed with popcorn and watch a movie or should we go out and spend some quality time with our loved ones?
Thanks to the return of drive-in cinema culture, we can bask in the best of both worlds at long last.
Cape {town} Etc discount: Gather the troops for a drive-in movie experience for a car of five people for R175 (valued at R250). Get it here.
With a capacity of around 50 cars, this intimate drive-in experience showcases both classic and popular movies on a 9-metre screen two nights a week, every Friday and Saturday.
The best part is that the sound is broadcast directly into your car via FM radios, just like in the old days.
After coming early to secure your ideal movie-watching spot, play some retro arcade games, shoot some pool or dig into gourmet greasy treats like the burgers, tacos, rolls and nachos from the halal-friendly roadhouse, El Greeyo or the epic street food from the resident food trucks to complete the ultimate drive-in vibe.
For the sake of ultimate cosiness and convenience, you can WhatsApp El Greeyo at 065 182 6287 with your order, and it will be delivered directly to your car.
Let’s be honest: no movie night is complete without some snacks, and GoDriveIn evidently agrees. Moviegoers are treated to a snack bar that is stocked with popcorn, cold drinks, chocolates, and sweets.
Enjoy all of this while sitting in the comfort of your own car (front or boot), surrounded by fellow film aficionados from a cosy distance, in front of the big screen.
