Dogs, wine, a good film. In the eyes of many people, things don’t get better than this combination of simple pleasures.
However, the joy of watching a movie with a glass of wine in hand and a snoozing pup on your lap is usually an experience reserved for the home – but this doesn’t have to be the case.

Whilst the theater doesn't show new film releases, there are themed nights and one-off screenings - K9 Cinemas hosted a "Game of Thrones" viewing party, for example.
Just like any cinema, though, you can buy snacks to munch on during the film - and dog-friendly ones too.
