Press Release

You won't wantto sneak food into this Safety Harbor movie theater.

State of screen:Their love of movies inspired Rachel and Richard Wilson to open a dinner theater in 2018.

• But Gigglewaters' gourmet American cuisine and craft cocktails are the real stars of the show.

The vibe:The speakeasy theme ("Gigglewater" was the code word to get a strong drink during prohibition) calls back to the 1920s and stays true to the city's spirit of upcycled decor.

• The bar iscarved from the dancefloor of the historic Belleview-Biltmore Hotel, and its ceiling is lined with the hotel's tin panels.

Best bites:The menu is heavy — Wagyu beef burgers, options to stuff mac and cheese in just about everything — but well worth the gastric consequences.

• "Man vs. Food" featured The Commissioner, a burger topped with gouda, bacon, a waffle, sweet bourbon bacon chunks, onion tanglers and a drizzle of cookie butter. And it's worth unhinging your jaw for.
• The cocktails are made with fresh-squeezed juices, balancing out the food with freshness.

Nice touches:For its Cinema Supper Series, theatergoers are served a themed menu at specific moments in the film. Think warm apple pie during "True Romance."

• Brunch is served daily until 2pm.

What's ahead:Owner Rachel Wilson told Axios she's hoping to franchise two locations in the next year, aiming to eventually spread out to Tampa, Orlando, Jacksonville and Sarasota.
