Since the Tascosa Drive-In in Amarillo was bought last year, there have been some changes. There is a sign up front right now. Yes, it is just asking us to pardon their mess, but it's a sign.

I know the fact that there is a big movie screen gives away what it is. It's nice, though, to see some signage. They have had some Shop and Swaps, which have been nice. They’re even looking for a Polka band.  So things are happening.

New Ownership, New Changes

There was another change recently made when you go to see a movie in Amarillo. You can now order beer. I don't know if that has ever been allowed before. I don't know if they ever had their liquor license, but seeing as the same family owns the drive-in and Big Jim's Pizza, they know what it takes to get that license. This seems like a first for the drive-in.

Beer and Wine Arrive at the Drive-In

We are here for all of the changes. According to a recent social media post, it is not just beer; soon it will be wine too:

Did you know we sell BEER?!
That’s right — enjoy your favorite cold ones like Bud Light, Modelo, Twisted Tea, Truly, Dos Equis, Yuengling, Pondaseta Fast & Hazy & more while watching movies under the stars
And don’t forget… WINE is coming soon!
Important Reminder
Per TABC rules, no outside alcohol is allowed on the premises — even with a food pass. Thank you for helping us keep everything safe and compliant so we can continue to serve you!

A Fresh Experience for Amarillo Moviegoers

So if you want a nice, cold beer when you pull into the Tascosa Drive-In, you are in luck. Soon you will be able to class up your night with a glass of wine too. The changes at Tascosa Drive-In keep happening, and we are not upset about it at all.
