UPDATE 7/24:
We went to El Capitan this evening to try out the new “Concessions to Go” pick-up service, and it went very smoothly. After ordering you’re sent an email that directs you to park in a spot right behind the movie theater in Hollywood. Then you simply call a phone number and a friendly El Capitan Cast Member will come out promptly with your food. There’s even a red carpet and a step-and-repeat photo op while you wait, and our order came with a fun El Capitan Theatre Activity Packet and crayons. Overall, it’s a pretty good deal and a fun way to get some genuine movie theater snacks during these strange times.
