Big screen, great location and value for money. Has a 30s Art Deco scent. Much cheaper than the majority of the central cinemas.

A beautiful theatre, what all cinemas should be like! (even if it is on the small side)

If you sit on the right if screen 2 you get a very strange view thanks to the wonky screen

One screen is rotated slightly to the left, so everyone crowds in the left hand side of the room =))))

Terrible and dated cinema. Highly recommend NOT seeing a film here.

Old style cinema. Not in the best area (full of tourists on the way), but close to everywhere.

Please de-flea screen 2 as it is getting quite annoying and hints at bigger animals roaming around in the dark

Perfect mix of art house, indie, intelligent blockbusters and event broadcasts.

If you see anything here always make sure it's in screen 1.

If you get an Unlimited Card it counts as a full price ticket to get another one for free on Orange Wednesdays!

For those prices it really needs a facelift - or maybe I should be grateful for the time transport that accompanied my £14 ticket...

Least extortionate drink in the bar is Guinness at £3.50 a pint.

Grab a drink at the bar... Booze in cinema, superb!

Loads of rats on screen 2 and 3 (lower ground screens). See rats running around my feet everytime.

Screen 1, one of the best cineworld screen

Only screen 1

A classy, but dated cinema that offers value memberships. Try a matinee to save the high ticket costs.
