Fantastic restored art deco style cinema with screenings of both retro films and new releases. Special screening of The Room with actor guest and spoon throwing. Jaws 50th anniversary screening for $15 ($45 with themed dessert and cocktail). Waterfall curtain in the main cinema. Large Thunderbirds TV series models on display upstairs. Original movie poster decor. Great atmosphere and choice of movies.

πŸ† Family Action Verdict

The art deco interior and proper big-screen atmosphere make this feel genuinely special rather than just a cinema trip. The vegetarian sausage roll earned its own mention in reviews.

β€œI love this place. It's classic😁. So spacious. They offer combo of popcorn drink and ice cream. A lot of tables, you can buy chips and other things. I love the chairs, so spacious and splendid. Outside is magnificent with chairs, space and nearby stores. You'll definitely manage to get a parking spaceπŸ˜β€

β€œGreat history, great food options- got the vegetarian sausage roll and it was unreal. The red Italian leather seats were super spacious and comfortable. The back row offers a love couch style so couples can sit together.”

β€œWhat a great job they have made of the old place. Superb service and smiles all round. I remember the dentist upstairs and a chemist on the left. Oh and the barber/hairdresser down back.”
