Amarillo brace yourself. We are just a few months into the year but it seems like there has been a lot going on already. We have had a lot of open doors when it comes to places to eat in Amarillo.
This is not a drill. This is not a wait-and-see. Nope, the movie theater inside Westgate Mall is about to open. We were first told it was going to open in January. OK, so they missed that target date.
We learned back in January that Amarillo's Westgate Mall was going to open back up their movie theater. This has been something that a lot of us are thrilled about. Finally, something brings us back to the heyday of the malls.
Amarillo's Westgate Mall has once again lost another place to eat in the food court. It was not that long ago when two other places shut down. Now a month later it has happened again.
Ever since the Sonic and Corn Dog 7 closed in Westgate Mall's food court they have been hurting for more food options. They have been trying. There have been places that have opened.
Oh, how the shopping has changed in Amarillo. Yes, it really has. Yes, we have a lot of the same stores that we always have. We also have some new ones that have moved in. Then some of the stores that we remember have had some changes..
It's been years since Amarillo could go to Westgate Mall and catch a good movie. I mean years. I remember going there a lot. Catching a movie and doing some shopping. Or dropping my daughter off to watch a movie while I shopped.
