The Alamo Drafthouse Cinema is an American cinema chain founded in 1997 in Austin, Texas, which is famous for serving dinner and drinks during the movie, as well as its strict policy of requiring its audiences to maintain proper cinema-going etiquette.

It has multiple locations across the United States, including eighteen (with several more being built) across Texas. Outside of Texas, it has five locations in Virginia (Winchester, Charlottesville, Woodbridge, Crystal City and Ashburn). There are three locations in Colorado (Denver, Westminster and Littleton) and four in New York (Yonkers, Brooklyn, Staten Island and Lower Manhattan), as well as two locations in Missouri (St. Louis and Springfield), and California (San Francisco and Los Angeles). There are individual locations in Chicago; Washington, D.C.; Woodbury, Minnesota; La Vista, Nebraska; and Raleigh, North Carolina.

Others are planned to be built in Birmingham, Alabama; Glendale, Colorado; Fayetteville, Arkansas; and Boston. In March 2021, Alamo Drafthouse filed for bankruptcy but emerged from the situation three months later.
