Movie Tavern: Breakfast and a Flick
Bargain movies on weekend mornings with a side of eggs
Getting a price break on a first-run movie usually means settling on an afternoon matinee showing. But the Movie Tavern at Mill Run presents another option – bargain movies on weekend mornings with the added bonus of breakfast.
“Breakfast and a Flick” starts at 9 a.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. Guests pay $5 to see a first-run film at the 12-screen theater.

I recently took my children on a Saturday morning to see “Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb,” which proved to be a pleasant family outing that took half the time it would to separately eat a meal in a restaurant and see a movie.
I read the menu by a dim light that remained lit throughout the film. Our server, Jared, took our order at our seats before the movie started. We could request additional service by pressing a call button. Our food was delivered during the movie, and I paid toward the end.
The breakfast menu includes pancakes, French toast, bagels, oatmeal and quesadillas. Kids meals, including a drink, are priced at $4.25.
The food was a bit bland and the surroundings a bit disheveled, which I attribute to the theater’s nontraditional seating – think office chairs pulled away from the tables. That said, the wheeled seats that swivel and recline are quite comfortable.
Movie Tavern is a national chain. It has a full bar, so if you feel inclined, order a Bloody Mary or mimosa for breakfast, too.
Movie Tavern is located 3773 Ridge Mill Dr., Columbus.
