South Bay Drive-In Theatre

You can head inside buy nachos , Pizza , hot dogs if you didn't bring anything with you. I love buying a pizza before entering bringing drinks chairs and chilling enjoy both movies you get to watch.

Park further back if you want the screen to be a bit more clear! And please don't be that person who keeps having their lights turn on and off...

You can watch 2 films for 1's price!! Its not that crowded either. Some people need to be reminded to turn off their headlights ... Duh!! All in all.... Its a fun place to be at!

Gates open at 7pm for 7:30 showings. Get there early on weekends, as it can take 20+ minutes to make it through the gate when it is a busy night.

Great Night. Great atmosphere. If you're going during the summer on a Friday or Saturday night, then get there early. We arrived 30mins before the start time and struggled to find a spot.

"Picnic " it! People have their special dietary needs . Bring your own food, grab something at the store, or pick up something at Jack in the Box or one of the several nearby food places.

they should have more control over the parking arangaments ecuse there are a lot of big cars in the front and don't let little cars see, but I love it

If you are listening to the movie with your radio make sure to start your car a couple times during the movie so your battery doesn't die! :)

If your movie is in screen one, save your money cuz the audio is horrible. All the other screens are fine. I love this place tho

You can introduce any kind of snacks and the spot is really nice.

Drive-in opens 1 hr prior to showing, so get a good spot and hang out. Perfect for caravans.

Get some food bring some blankets get comfortable

Go to the second or third showings of the night, first showings are kinda a nightmare. And definitely don't do opening nights here.

Theres an atm in the concession stand. Also if you havnt eatten dinner they have carne asada burritos .

Great place to watch a movie . The new upgrades are awesome!

Actually decent and a lot better going during the weekdays.. A lot less people.

Saturday nights you have to go early I have a small car. I had to park behind 2suv's not the biz.

Date night ❤️

Such a cool experience for someone from Europe to do

There are only two Drive-In Theatres in San Diego - South Bay Drive In Theatre plays the latest films - Stay for one film or watch a double feature ! Read more

Come on a week day and have the place to yourself.

Otherwise, big $savings so support the concessions !

Ask someone where to park nearer to the FM transmitters, because the quality of the signal is bad, sounds like AM to me.

Hey South Bay Drive-In Theatre, join Freebie! Read more

This drive-in is $1 cheaper a head, and it's concessions significantly cheaper, than it's Santee counterpart.

Lately the line has been so long you miss the 1st part of the movie ...

Get here early to get a good spot.

Came to SD just for this. Such a waste. Horrible sound (car radio ) and people loud and drinking. I know its a drive in but everyone should be able to at least hear it. Left early. Never coming back.

Do you offer spanish audio?

Weekdays are THE days to come.

It's 8 bucks each person now

Remember to turn off your headlights !

Bring lots of snackies!

Good movies oldies

Expensive and no dogs allowed only a limited people in car. Views were always blocked by other cares. Cashiers were not nice.

They don't take cards so remember to bring cash.

Massive lines try and go in mid movie play

Wash your windshield

Exiting is a nightmare! Kind of scary.
