Soda City has everything ranging from local food trucks, to handmade jewelry, to local artists. It’s family and pup friendly. Afterwards enjoy a bite to eat on Main Street or a movie at the Nickelodeon.

The Big Mo

The Big Monetta drive-in movie theater takes you back in time. Take a trip out to Leesville with a date or the family to catch a feature film from the comfort of your car, truck bed or hatch-back. There are three different screens each showing two different movies starting at sundown Friday through Sunday. Check their website weekly for different movies.
