Theaters
The Angelika Fil Center & Cafe is Dallas' most impressive, dynamic cinema devoted to independent and specialty film. Built in 2001, the Angelika Dallas is a state-of-the-art eight screen complex located in the heart of Mockingbird Station. The theater features luxury stadium designed seating, digital sound and wall-to-wall screens. A cafe/lounge area with comfortable couches and chairs is the perfect place to chat with friends or share an espresso and a delicious treat before or after a film. With its
stylish decor and superior quality of film, the Angelika Dallas is an obvious favorite for moviegoers across the Dallas area.
Studio Movie Grill makes going out easy. Because we have the answer to the big question, "should we eat before or after the movie?" It's the prefect atmosphere for your one-stop great movie and fabulous meal.
At Studio Movie Grill, you get full food service, soft drink, beer, wine and liquour menu available before and during the movie. Just purchase your ticket at the box office or right online. Reservations can be made for parties of 25 or more. Once you are seated in your comfortable individual leather chair that swivels, rolls, and tilts, servers will take your order like any restaurant. Your food will be brought to you inside the theater, usually before the movie starts, so you can enjoy your meal during
the show. You will also be given a small coaster light. We don't want to disturb you during the feature, so the coaster light lets our staff know you want service and we are ready to take your order or get you a refill. Your check will be dropped 40 minutes before the movie ends and you can pay out at your convenience.

Finally a park that breaks some new ground in terms of stadium design. Frisco probably could have built a new park that is like any other new park built since 1995, but instead they built one that takes the best features from the standard ballpark template and enhanced it with several unique aspects. From the outside, the park looks like no other - there is no red brick to be found here. It is light gray in color and completely vinyl sided. A plaza area with a fountain is located behind center field.
Inside, the structure of the park is made up of several buildings instead of one continuous grandstand. The structures down the line each hold luxury boxes on the second floor and concession stands on the ground level. Behind home plate, the structure contains a restaurant in addition to the press box and more luxury boxes. The buildings are set back fairly far making for wide and spacious concourses. The concourse wraps completely around the park and the field is visible from anywhere along it. The seating
is made up of all green fold downs with no center concourse to split it up. This makes for good sightlines and seats close to the action. In addition, there is also berm seating available in the outfield. The most unique feature (and most publicized) is the bullpens which are built into the stands. While it is different, it feels a bit contrived and pointless. Concessions at Dr. Pepper Ballpark are above average in quality with an excellent variety - brats, pizza, cheese steaks, burgers, and BBQ. The BBQ
plates available at the stand in right field are highly recommended. Cola fans beware - there are no cola products sold here - no Coke, no Pepsi, no RC. A large team store is located in one of the buildings on the 3rd base side. Despite being a new team, the atmosphere is not too over the top in Frisco. Parking is available in team lots for $3 or at a nearby mall (within walking distance) for free. New ballparks just don't get much better than Dr. Pepper Ballpark - a unique design, tasty concessions, and a
good atmosphere combine to make this a great place to take in a game.
