As one of the last standing drive-ins in the state of Oklahoma, and one of only 338 drive in theatres left in America, Chief Drive-In Theatre is a little slice of heaven. Built in 1949, the historic Chief Drive-In is open year round and known for their reasonable prices for movies, miniature golf, great food and an all-around good time.
Not all drive-ins are built the same and Chief Drive-In stands out in the crowd as a family owned and operated attraction. With just one screen, Chief does an excellent job of selecting the top first run movies, stacked as double features. Movie nights are more than affordable at Chief with a ticket price of just $7 a person, you can actually have a date night for under $20. Concessions are also available to go along with your movie and offered at really reasonable prices, from $2 corn dogs to $3 Frito pies, Chief offers a concession for every hungry member of the family. Best of all, concessions are consistently hot and ready thanks to the use of the AutoFry on site. Miniature golf is available too, for those looking to play before or in-between movies, also reasonably priced at just $5 per person per round.
Now you know the facts, let’s see what their fans had to say:
“Grab a bucket of popcorn, a root beer float, and your favorite people, and settle in for a long night at the movies! The Chief Drive-In Theatre is a family owned and operated labor of love. Every weekend throughout the year, and every single day during the summer the family invites guests of all types to come spend some time reliving a classic part of the Suburban American Dream.” - Quijana on Yelp
“Our family loves this place, the double features, the putt putt golf, & the concession. Drive- In movies are a thing of the past, not many exist, we are lucky to have one in our area. Let's keep our past alive so the next generation can experience the fun.” Shawn Enloe, Facebook Review
“Place is cooler than Fonze in the 50's” – Kyle Donaldson, Facebook Review
“A star-lit night... soft rustling of the wind through the trees...the sweet smells of soft drink fountains & popped corn permeates the air full of sound vibrations pulsing from the outdoor seating that crowns a bustling snack bar as a bit of Hollywood magic dances across the screen high above miniature golf players. This is the feast of the senses one experiences at this particular drive in. The patrons, those that realize what a joy they have in this outdoor venue, are always polite to each other as they take in the art found in this dying theatre style. The staff, and owners greet you personally, and are also so obviously grateful to have visitors who are their life blood sustaining this beautiful ole' "Chief" gracing the outskirts of their small quaint town. Complete with that pricey (70-100 thou, as is commonly known,) digital conversion, and a well-stocked with the latest, once celluloid, features, as well as a very surprisingly delicious kitchen, it is the ultimate family/romantic/reminiscent outing.” Tiff M., Trip Advisor Review
