![]() Om: OK, let’s not forget that this is a unique experience as far as food goes – though they have gotten more numerous, it’s not like there are a lot of movie theater’s out there that serve actual food, let alone something beyond a hot dog and pretzel. For as expensive as iPic is I expect better service. Ok, back to the waiter…once he delivered our food and popcorn and I definitely got the “he was about to forget our popcorn” vibe, he totally evaporated. I figure it’s going over my jeans so how bad can it be?! Ok, don’t answer that…I really don’t want to know and I like the illusion of cozy. BUT I can get cold easily so I do use the blanket. He did show up and our food was out pretty quickly! Within about 10 minutes which was good! The pillows and blanket situation…I have never used the pillows because, well, ick. Nom: I actually got a little concerned about our waiter showing up only because when we sat down I didn’t see a server in sight. They really have some room for improvement to really set themselves apart from any other movie theater experience out there, and instead it comes across as a bit lacking. Yes, my popcorn has been forgotten on occasions in the past. The waiter never checked back to see how everything was, they don’t refill your drinks unless asked, pillows and blankets should really be washed in-between shows, and I fear that our popcorn would have been forgotten had we not reminded him. Instead, you get “ok” service, something you might see at an Applebee’s or Chili’s. Here’s the thing at iPic – service should really be a 4.5 or 5 considering the seat & food prices and ambiance, expecting something really special. At the iPic they provide you with blankets and pillows, which I try to avoid using a) because I would fall asleep nine times out of 10 and b) I’m not quite sure that they wash them after each use. We got our food about 10 minutes after ordering, which was perfectly acceptable. Om: Shortly after we took our seats a waiter came over, introduced himself, and was ready to take our order. Order: White flatbread pizza, truffle fries, small bag of popcorn each (free).This is one of those upscale movie theaters that offer comfortable seats that recline, a more private experience, and food beyond your standard popcorn / soda / candy offerings. The key word here is relax, and that’s exactly the feeling that you get when you go see a movie here. Position will require frequent standing, bending/kneeling, lifting and carrying up to 50 lbs.After a hectic Black Friday we decided to relax and go see a movie at the iPic theater located in the Village at Fairview. ![]() ![]()
