You can order something stronger than a malt in the upstairs area, reserved for those age 21 and older.

The theater is set to begin serving beer, wine and mixed drinks from a bar in the upstairs mezzanine, just as it has been at Moore’s Warren Theatre since 2008.

Some area theaters have considered such a service for years, but the Warren Theatre will offer alcohol to adults from the beginning.

“That’s only in the upstairs area, and adults will have to show identification to even go upstairs,” Warren said, adding that a magnetic card reader is used to scan driver’s licenses quickly in the area, which has higher security.

“We serve beer and wine and cocktails because there’s a demand for that from the customer standpoint,” Warren said, “and that (kitchen) upstairs, with its food service, is basically a restaurant up there that serves the theaters.”

Adults-only areas

The kitchen and bar upstairs will serve two areas that are similar but each is unique.

The Director’s Suites upstairs are the smallest-capacity auditoriums in the Warren Theatre — seating for just 35 — but imagine the experience if you’re an “Avengers” fan and it’s opening night.
