Martinis & Imax at Fernbank
If you’re looking for something to do on a first date, this is it.
Its a beautiful setting, with music playing in the background - very romantic. It makes a great group activity too.
I would have given the place all 5 stars, except for a couple things. First of all - the parking situation. They let people go there just to hang out, so the people who actually have tickets to the movie are forced to drive around forever looking for a spot. Second - the Food. I’ve never actually eaten it, but from looking at it can tell its overpriced for what it is.
If you are going there, plan on eating afterwards. Have a strong drink and get a buzz going while you are watching the movie - it makes the experience that much more fun. After wards, go to one of the nearby restaurants on Ponce or head to the Highlands.
**Update for 2008**
What’s up with the 50% hike in ticket prices? I was ok paying $10 per ticket - but $15!!?? That’s a little excessive for a 40 minute film, especially given the fact that you must now wait in line 20 minutes prior to the film starting. And, at $9 per (sucky) cocktail, I think I’ll be investing in a flask.
