Pedro CambraDecember 12, 2014Independent cinema run by a charity. The auditorium is a really unique cinema room. They do special projections and once a month they invite a celebrity to go and present their favourite film.
Alexia KFebruary 16, 2018Amazing community led Art Deco cinema. Must visit even only for the space . A hidden London gem.
James McGeeNovember 3, 2021Fantastic 30s decor and always has interesting mix of mainstream and small independent films. We’ll worth a visit
Martin TiedemannMay 23, 201222 October: the Phoenix is believed to be the oldest purpose-built cinema in the country, dating back to 1910. Saved from demolition in 1985 the interior retains distinctive features & vaulted ceiling- ElanyCNovember 29, 2012Interview with the Vampire filming location: Louis watches a sunrise (on film) for the first time in 200 years, is the Phoenix Cinema, 52 High Road, East Finchley, in north London.
- Roni SchwartsNovember 13, 2010Try the kids club. 2 GBP per ticket + activity before the movie. Starts at 11:00 every Saturday (movie at 12:00). Great fun with the kids.
Sip a coffee on the cafe balcony and watch East Finchley pass by. Best avoid the food though.
Chris JonesMarch 15, 2014Sitting close to the screen isn't too bad (row D). It's also possible to find a good-looking girl who needs your spare ticket and then not ask her for her number before awkwardly telling her goodnight- Great architecture and always shows interesting films
- Lovely ol' faded grandeur-meets-fleapit place, with homemade cakes. Apparently going 2b refurbed with lottery ££sa - I'll miss the dank.
Hella great refurb. Cafe is an awesome hang-out spot.
- Newly refurbished with a great new cafe upstairs for patrons and passers-by alike
Xsara HelmiJanuary 12, 2019Out of date, over priced uncomfortable seats, unattractive. Go to to the Everyman at Muswell Hill, or the Art House or Picturehouse in Crouch End instead.

"Go for the premium seats if you are taller than 160cm, otherwise you will have 2 hours of suffering, and the best moment of the film will be when it ends and you can leave."
