AMC Assembly Row 12 and MacGuffins Bar Coming to Somerville

It looks like the city of Somerville will have another place where people can enjoy an alcoholic beverage or two at a move theater.

According to an article in the Somerville Patch, AMC Theatres is opening a 12-screen movie complex at Assembly Row, with a bar and lounge called MacGuffins inside the complex. The website for AMC mentions that MacGuffins, which can be found at a number of their complexes, features beer, wine, and cocktails, with drinks being allowed into the auditorium.

The exact opening date of the movie complex--and MacGuffins--is not written in stone yet, but it appears that it could be opening in the middle of 2014, when phase one of Assembly Row (which is located in the Assembly Square part of Somerville just off Route 93) is slated to be completed.

[April 24, 2014 update: According to the AMC website, the new AMC Assembly Row 12 movie complex is now open, as is MacGuffins.]

Somerville is also home to another movie spot that has beer available--the Somerville Theatre in Davis Square.

Thanks to Universal Hub for bringing this to our attention.
