My friends and I traveled to Southpointe for dinner and a movie. We had dinner and then walked over to the theatre, paid for tickets and proceeded inside. Once inside some 15 year old kid refused to let us in because we had leftovers from the restaurant we just left. He went on, blah, blah, blah about their ""no outside food policy"" and that his manager had already seen our bags. The ""big"" manager and her rent-a-cop came over and proceed to be extremely rude over the situation. We were ticked! Here we are in our thirties and forties and some kids are telling us we can't come in because of our leftovers! Really? We missed the sign when we paid for our tickets and just proceeded in- next time it will go in my purse! Oh, but wait- we're not coming back to your theatre! It was throw out your leftovers or you can't be here! Well, the reason we were in Durham was for dinner and a movie and we wanted to see the movie, so yes, we had to throw away our food! They did offer to refund our ticket money- how very kind of them! Ha! I understand bringing in a 5 course meal to eat while watching their movie is forbidden and that wasn't the case. We were too full from dinner to break into those leftovers during the movie anyway! So, you guessed it... we didn't even purchase their food either because we were full from dinner! Sorry guys, no food sale from us and there won't be in the future because we will not return. You can keep you crappy theatre in your crappy town. No one from Raleigh would dare move there and we won't be seen there again!
Pros: easy access
Cons: rude staff
