February 2025What a fantastic cinema! I only went for the first time a week and a half ago and since then have not only been again but also became a member. If that’s not a vote of confidence I don’t know what is. The main lobby is comfortable and cozy, so you’ll definitely want to arrive early to sit and enjoy a drink and a bite to eat. Lots of unique touches really give the place personality compared to some of the bigger, corporate picture houses. Inside screen 1 (only I’ve been in) big, comfy chairs fill the room. I’d say there’s no bad seats, even front row seems a decent view of the screen, but row three is a sweet spot. The screen is bright, crystal clear, and the sound surrounds you and is honestly quite impressive for a smaller cinema. All this to say - I wish I’d found this gem of a cinema sooner!

March 2025Super comfortable seats, lovely aesthetic in the auditorium. Sound quality is top-notch. Friendly staff and decent selection of food and drinks at the bar. Everything is also reasonably priced . I attended the pitch black album listening party experience which was surreal. Definitely the definitive way to experience an album. The crisp audio allows you to be immersed in the instrumentation and vocal Performance while you sit in awe blindfolded embracing the reverberation of the booming surround sound. Highly recommend .

February 2025What a gem! I loved this cinema and the popcorn. I'll definitely be coming back. The staff were so friendly and helpful, and the seats were really comfortable.

February 2025Didn’t know we have a cinema here, what a nice surprise. Came to the cinema and found the seating far too soft!
