The Bear Tooth Theatre and Pub opened in 2000 in what was formerly the old Denali Theatre which opened on February 16, 1951. During remodeling, seating was reduced from 600 to 400, with 275 on the main floor and 125 in the balcony. Every other row of seats was removed to make room for tables since not only does the Bear Tooth screen movies (first-run Hollywood fare, classic and art films) but also serves food and beer, as well as traditional popcorn and candy. A section of the auditorium is for under-21 seating. The theatre also features occasional live entertainment as well.
The Bear Tooth’s owners also operate the Moose Tooth Brewing Company and the Moose Tooth Pub & Pizzeria in town. Both the Bear Tooth and Moose Tooth are named for peaks in the nearby Alaska Range.

I love this theatre. It has a huge curved screen and perfect projection. Many independent films are shown here. I make it a point to eat and see a movie here every time I get to Anchorage.
Opened February 16th, 1951. Grand opening ad posted.
