Downtown Disney's AMC MacGuffins Bar & Lounge

Movie Night on Vacation just got a little nicer with last year's complete overhaul that turned the Downtown Disney AMC Theater into a dine in movie experience. The AMC Fork & Screen is open to guests 18 years of age and older with "with upgraded seats, an extensive menu, full cocktail bar and service at the push of a button." It can still be a family experience as well, but those under age 18 must be accompanied and supervised by an adult.
