There was a pretty popular thread about a month ago with lots of perspectives on this Alamo location.

I've only been once, and my experience was not so great. Based on the majority of experiences I've seen in these threads, it's hard to muster up interest in trying again. I worked in some of the OG Alamos in Austin, though, so my standards are probably unreasonably high.

Long story short, the original Alamo owners sold the franchise rights off back in 2009 or so and only retained ownership of the original Austin locations. Since then, the brand seems to have lost its integrity - not a surprise with a national franchise. This is why you'll have wildly different experiences if you go to different locations.

On a tangential note, the original locations came under fire in 2017 for some gross buddy-buddy sexual asssault coverup stuff - if you're interested to know more, check out this fairly comprehensive article.

As someone whose university years were defined by weekend shifts at the Alamo, the Bryant St. location is a huge disappointment, likewise the lack of response from management. I'll stick to Atlantic Plumbing Cinema for a similar enough experience without all the BS.
