Sep. 28—Flix Brewhouse plans to open its second Albuquerque location early next year at the former Regal UA High Ridge, the company announced on Wednesday.
The 28,000 square-foot facility, located at 12921 Indian School NE, will be completely overhauled, the company said, and will include 720 luxury electric recliners, all-laser projection and Dolby immersive sound across its theater rooms. The company also plans to add its "Easy Glider 2" sliding and pivoting tabletops.
"Flix Brewhouse has become synonymous with excellence in cinema on the West Side of Albuquerque, and we are excited to bring our brand of experiential cinema, award-winning craft beer, and delicious food to the east side right next to the Hinkle Fun Center," Allan Reagan, Flix founder, said in a statement.
Flix CEO Chance Robertson, who is from New Mexico, said the Northeast Heights location will be its eleventh. The company has other Flix Brewhouse locations in Indiana, Iowa, Texas, Wisconsin and Oklahoma, according to its website. The new Flix Brewhouse is leasing the site from Hinkle Income Properties.
"We love the Land of Enchantment, and cannot wait to showcase the best of Hollywood, our Fan, Fam, and BeerFest offerings, and best-in-class digital technology and hospitality," Robertson said.
