In the only example of a monopoly that we can get behind, Micon Cinemas has swept the category for Best Movie Theater. This includes their 3109 Mall Drive, Eau Claire location, their theater in Chippewa Falls (475 Chippewa Mall Dr, Chippewa Falls), and the classic Micon Downtown Cinema (315 S Barstow St, Eau Claire). And if that’s not enough, they now operate the movie theater in the mall, too! They’ve won us all over with their plush reclinable seats, delicious food that goes above and beyond just popcorn, and showings of all the latest movies, plus unique screenings of old favorites. –Briana Novacek
