need to go through ticket takers to enter and enjoy JD’s. “We are dedicated to presenting the features without distractions or interruptions that may occur in dine-in facilities,” continues Mundorff. There are many other dining options beyond just popcorn, fountain drinks and candy available at the concessions counter. As with other Landmark locations, there’s an emphasis on carrying products produced by locally based suppliers. According to Mundorff, “We always try to support the regional economy by selling local goods. Our head of concessions lives in New York City and had a great time selecting the many items we are offering.” At 57 West, some samples of what cinemagoers can purchase include pizza slices from Two Boots, a New York City pizza pioneer with a 30-year track record of success and a unique cornmeal crust; Eisenberg Gourmet Beef Franks on locally baked Pretzel Buns from Bronx Baking Co., and Bronx Pretzels, which can be dipped in Sir Kensington’s (a craft condiment company headquartered in Manhattan’s Soho district) Spicy Brown Mustard. If you’re seeking artisanal desserts from nearby makers, you have lots of options: Treat House Crispy Rice & Marshmallow Treats; Sweet & Sara Vegan Smores; Sugar and Plumm Macarons, and brownies from Fat Witch. Melt Ice Cream Sandwiches are also on the menu and available in seven different flavors, including Morticia and Elvis (yes, banana and peanut butter flavors are combined in these). Since the theatre’s immediate neighborhood location is slightly off the beaten path near the Hudson River, a number of blocks away from higher foot-trafficked neighborhoods of the city and its network of subway lines, the Landmark team has made it a point to proactively reach out to nearby residents to help drive attendance. “After launching a rather extensive advertising and publicity campaign, we had a few open houses offering the nearby residents a chance to check out their new neighbor. So far, we have only had positive observations,” Mundorff says.
