OK, so Yatala isn’t technically Brisbane, but as a much-loved local landmark, we couldn't leave this quirky venue off our listings of the best cinemas. Yatala Drive-In is all about old-school fun. Think back to childhood visits to the drive-in in your PJs, where you’d fill up on popcorn and choc tops as you watched the latest blockbusters on the outdoor screen. Bring along chairs and a picnic blanket if you want to sit outside, and visit the 1950s-style diner for hot food and snacks. If you really want to make a night of it, there are special discounts for double screenings. And if you have a pooch that's partial to Polanski, Peckinpah, Pasolini or Payne, you can even bring your pets.
