The Cobb Theatres - Tyrone Luxury 10 in St. Petersburg, Florida opened on April 15, 2016. Located at 2998 Tyrone Boulevard North in the Tyrone Square Mall, the ten-screen movie theater offers moviegoers an upscale experience with reserved recliners for seating and a full-service restaurant and bar.
The Cobbster's Kitchen & Bar offers a wide variety of appetizers, soft tacos, salads, burgers, sandwiches, and pizzas, along with a selection of desserts and premium coffee. For those of drinking age, they offer martinis, mojitos, and other cocktails, as well as wine and bottled and draft beers.
We're assuming that there are auditoriums with hopefully-large screens and nice sound systems, and that, somewhere, you can get traditional popcorn and M&M's too, but that's clearly not what they're focusing on in the publicity for this new location.
Ticket prices at this theater are not out of line. Adults are $11 and children are $7.75. You can find a full list of the prices on the Ticket Prices page for the theater.
The Tampa Tribune published an article recently about the theater's opening:
How about an Emerald City Appletini to wash down that movie popcorn instead of a cola? In fact, why not forgo the traditional snack for a couple of Korean-style barbecued beef tacos?
Moviegoers, long consigned to uncomfortable seats, sticky floors and overpriced popcorn, candy and soda at theater concession stands, are starting to get pampered.
Pinellas County got a taste of the new trend this week with the opening of the Cobb Luxury 10 Theatre at Tyrone Square Mall, which features a full service restaurant offering creative American Bistro cuisine along with a full bar.
All theater seats are oversized electric recliners, with detachable table trays so patrons can enjoy a meal during the show.
“The movie’s still the star. People are coming here to see a movie, and that’s what’s most important,” said Guy Austin, vice president of theater operations for the Cobb chain. “But if they’re here and they’re going to order something, we want them to enjoy it and remember it. When you leave here, you don’t take anything with you. You take the experience. It’s the memory. So we have to deliver that to them.”

The theater competes geographically with the Regal Park Place Stadium 16 in Pinellas Park and the Muvico Sundial 19 + IMAX in St. Petersburg, but to our knowledge, neither of those locations offer the same type of amenities. Cobb Theatres a total of 24 locations in Florida and six other states.
