Good value Tuesdays. Havent been to movies in ages. Staff who booked tickets was super helpful. Staff who served at the candy bar a few hours later very friendly and helpful. Recommend during week. Less crowded. Saw Song Sung Blue with my Neil Diamind fan parents. Great night out. Thanks Reading Cinemas.

“We don't go to the movies very often as it is now so expensive. However having said that we normally enjoy it greatly. I could not believe that the 3d glasses were not clean. When handed them I immediately tried to clean them. At first I thought maybe it was residue from being washed,but no,even with a glass cloth I could not clean and had residual grease. Watching a brilliant movie in 3d with dirty glasses was not a good experience. If you pick up your glasses you should check them before Watching the movie.”

“I would recommend having staff at the ticket checks in as I went to the adult only showing ( 18 + ) as stated on the website. Of Zootopia 2 yet two families with very clearly young kids came in to showing. It kinda ruins the purpose of calling it an adult only showing when Young kids are allowed to be there. If I knew I wasn't technically going to a adult only showing then I could've saved my money and got a cheaper showing.”

“I love this place but they could really do with an update on their seating furniture in the waiting area. The seats a very dirty, ripped and look unpleasant to sit on. Would have liked to look at the lights while waiting. But had to find another seat.”
