Editorial Review for Brewvies – by Devin Bryson
The Scene
Brewvies operates as a low-cost theater (one or two months after their release, all the good movies end up here). Catch the occasional indie flick or a special screening of a classic. Don't think the movie's the only entertainment, though: Crowds show up for the beer specials, great food and the conversation-friendly atmosphere.
The Draw
You've always wanted to eat dinner at a movie theater--now you can. Order a sandwich, a salad or a pizza and enjoy it while watching the flick. Want to wash it all down with some suds? Try one of the many ales, lagers or stouts on tap. Pints of brew and pitchers are reasonably priced, and movies cost just $4--$2 before 5pm.

I love Brewvies! The first time I went, I was hooked! They're always getting new movies, and most are really really good. Most the time it's the movies I meant to see in the theatres but didn't get to in time. Right after they leave the big expensive theaters they are played at Brewvies!!! And how can you beat a movie and beer AND food (if you so wish)? And they seem to pick most of the best new movies! Some of their foods aren't the greatest ever, BUT their pizza bread is amazing, and the portions are HUGE! Nachos are good, hummus is great and of HUGE portions (as is everything really), potato wedges are good, various burgers and sandwiches are good, salads are large and amazing. I wouldn't suggest their brewvies burrito or most of their soups though. Perhaps just my opinion, but bleh. I've also noticed over the past many months, they've gotten friendlier staff. Used to be not as friendly, and now it's like everyone's your friend! Kind of like on Cheers, but with movies and better lighting! :) Did I forget to mention the pool tables? I believe there are 4 of them, and on certain days and times, pool is free! 2 arcade machines, a nice little patio to smoke on if you need... nice little table area in front of your theater seats to set your beer and food on.... I could pretty much live at Brewvies.
Pros: Great prices, lots of beers on tap, friendly staff, large menu, large portions of food, great new movies!
Cons: a few of the foods are below average.

I ordered soup at this place and there was a dead fly in it. Most of the servers give poor service and have been rude 8 out of the 10 times I've been there in the past 6 months so you can't say I didn't give them a chance. The food is generally bland and a lot of their beer on tap is never in stock every time I've gone. You can see the same movies at the Sugarhouse Movies 10 for $1 instead
