THUNDER BAY – Movie fans who want to grab a beer to help them through Jordan Peele’s latest horror offering are now able to do so at Silver City Thunder Bay.
A spokeswoman with the Cineplex movie theatre chain confirmed to CKPR Radio on Monday that alcohol sales have been up and running for the past couple of weeks.
“As a fully licensed theatre, guests have the option to purchase beer ... and cider from a designated kiosk located in the lobby and bring it into an auditorium to enjoy during their movie. Beer and cider can also be purchased from a mobile kiosk within the auditorium prior to the start of the movie,” said Tiana McPhee in an email response.
“As part of the liquor licensing process, all theatre staff responsible for serving alcohol receive formal training offered by each province – in Ontario, this means that all staff participate in the Smart Serve Responsible Alcohol Beverage Service Program.”
This story has been updated to indicate wine is not available in Thunder Bay, as was indicated in the statement provided by Cineplex.
