I love this drive in cinema! The burgers are delicious as well!if I could go back every night I would, there is nothing like the nostalgia of sitting in your warm car, freedom to talk, and being cosy while watching a good movie!

Coburg drive in is great! The have discounted nights on Mondays and Tuesdays, and a capped price per car, making it very affordable!

The screens are large and there is ample space for cars. It is set up in such a way that even if a large car or a car with a lifted boot parks in front of you, you still have full view of the screen.

The candy bar does not have as much variety as other village cinemas but they have the usual popcorn, choc tops and drinks, and also a variety of hot foods. The quality is the same as other cinemas, as are the prices.

The drive-ins are great for watching a movie in peace as you cannot normally hear other patrons talking through the movie!

Still as good as it was when i was a kid, cheaper than the standard cinemas and great for a family who can get a bit unsettled, or who like to talk through movies... Because no one can hear you! And for the poor souls who kill their battery, they will jump start it for you :)

The best drive in I have ever been to. I especialy love going there on hot summer nights, take some chairs, snacks and watch in comfort. If you do not want to bring your own snacks just send their canteen an sms with your order and they bring it to you. It is a lot cheaper than going to cinema and certainly a lot more fun. This is really enjoyable for children too, my children love going here.

Ahhh. I love the drive-ins due to many reasons. Firstly, i enjoy getting out of my car, running up to another and jumping up onto their window. Secondly, farting is great at the drive ins- you can smell it whilst watching the movie and eating ice-cream. Delicious.

The coburg drive-in provides an excelnt movie experience. You have the comfort of being in your own car, or the ability to take a 4WD or station wagon and lay down in the back with the back facing the screen. It is also excellent value with the ticket prices cheaper than normal cinemas and you can see a second movie for $5 on a normal day and on Monday it's $20 for a car load.

That's amazingly priced! one of the best things about the experience considering how expensive regular cinemas are

Classic drive in. Love the donnnuutttsss, unfortunately they don't come in 8 anymore. Screen is a little bit small but overall, great experience. great to watch with your partner. Not ideal to do a double date since it is so hard for the people who site at the back to watch the screen.

however, when i went there, the screening time is different from what was advertised in the villagecinemas.com.au website. but, i was able to watch other great movie.

One of my favourite evening outings for my family. Monday night they have great deals!!
You can take a whole car load for $20. There are three screens and a diner with choc-tops, hot food and drinks. Not the best way to see the latest "must see" movie, but it is a fantastic way to see a family movie or a movie that has been out for a while.

I love it because I dont have to listen to people munching on popcorn and struggling to open choc tops. Also, the young guys trying to impress their friends with inappropriate comments can be annoying. Best of all at the drive-inn I can FART as loud as I want and not worry about the stench. If it gets too bad you just wind the windows down. Great fun!

Approximate cost: $35

Coburg Drive In is one of the last two remaining drive-ins in Vic. It has 3 screens and is excellent value for a family outing.

The experience of going to the drive-in's is one in a million and a must need for everyone especially for children to have fond memories of when they are older.

This place may be a little overpriced on entry and food, and it may need a revamp (the last time i was there anyway) but the experience is worth it. I wish there were more drive in cinemas around Melbourne but I'm glad this one is so close to home.

I would recommend Coburg Drive In to any and all.

Approximate cost: $Pricey

I love the drive ins, the food from the diner a little overpriced (but what cinema doesn't have overpriced food). They have great deals when it comes to watching more than one movie and having a car load (best to bring two cars if you plan to have a full car, but fill one car up to take full advantage of the deals).

The Coburg Drive in is the best because you can watch a movie in your own car. You don't have to step out of the car. You can also BYO Food and drinks in your car. The seat of your car is better then the seat at the other cinema centres. And there is no other person's head in the way. Coburg drive in are the best.

Approximate cost: $32-$40

If you want a different movie experience, just like in the 50's, then head off to Coburg drive -in's. Great for a family night out and the kids will have a ball. The cafe could do with a better look but other than that its great.

This drive in is quite the experience if you're looking for something a little different to norml cinemas. It's like going back in time to the old drive ins and well worth going to for the experience. I quite enjoy going there. Just make sure you pick a nice summer evening

If you are after a different movie experience, this is a great opportunity on a clear night. Coburg Drive-In offers 3 screens, and a 50s style Diner with all the usual movie snacks. It is usally quite busy, especially on nice nights, so good to get there early and set your car up for the movie action. A fun and different night out.
