First time I've ever been to a movie and not had popcorn. We weren't sure what the process was and didn't want to stand in any more slow-moving lines. Do you have to go to TacoMac to order concessions? Or do you order at ticket window? Or do you just get in line for the Concessions? We heard all 3 scenarios. When we came out of the movies, the line for tickets was down the side street past the Japanese Steakhouse. All of these folks were exposed to the outside elements -- thunderstorms and hot sun. Maybe Old Mill could designate one window just for other venues and sell movie tickets in between. Next time I'll order my tickets online.
You have to pay for concessions at Lazy Macs. You can pick up your drink and candy at this counter. Then you take your receipt to the popcorn counter to get popcorn. Be sure to ask for butter if you want it as you can’t add your own anymore.

Experienced the same line wait for a movie ticket behind a person trying to decide what seat they wanted for an entertainment performance. The second window had a patron doing the same. I didn’t know they were using the box office for both movies and performances. It’s not efficient for movie goers.
