   I've been going to the Dome for decades. In my youth it was known as the flea pit because compared to the Odeon we also had it small, dreary and old-fashioned. But now, although it retains it's original features, it's a great place to see films. Sat on a very comfy sofa with masses of leg room in screen 4 with fantastic sound and vision. The staff were lovely and very helpful, everything was clean and just made the whole experience so much better. Definitely recommend.

   Lovely authentic feel to the building. The seats in screen 4 are so comfy and would be cheap at twice the price! I had the most amazing time! One teeny tiny negative was the surround sound was overwhelmingly LOUD.

   I’ve always liked the Dome, but tonight really soured the experience. I went with a friend to see Choral and, after about 5 minutes, we realised it just wasn’t for us and left after 15 minutes. We’d already bought drinks, popcorn and sweets, and we would have left earlier, but we worried about disturbing the elderly ladies sitting next to us. We spoke to staff straight away and politely asked if we could have a voucher to see something else another time. The girl said she’d check with the manager, disappeared for all of five seconds, and came back with a flat “there’s nothing we can do,” except letting us wander into films that had already been running for over an hour. Not exactly helpful. What disappointed me wasn’t the answer itself, but the complete unwillingness to even consider a reasonable solution. I know they can make exceptions when they want to — a few months ago we accidentally walked into a special-needs screening of a Jurassic film (subtitles, low volume, lights on). After explaining, staff were understanding and let us watch the later showing for free. Totally fair, and we appreciated it. Tonight, though, there was none of that courtesy or flexibility. Just a quick brush-off. A shame, because good customer service costs nothing, and loyal customers remember how they’re treated.

   Beautiful old theatre. The vibe is gorgeous and adds to the theatre experience. The chairs are decent. The staff is friendly and helpful. The toilets downstairs are limited and cramped. Went to see Stranger Things the first shadow. Very much worth seeing. What a show! Even with my obstructed view, die to the cheaper seats, it was so worth the money. I am planning to go again.

   We watched our movie in Screen 4 at the Dome Cinema and had such a great experience! The chairs are very comfy and come with little tables, perfect for drinks and food. The staff are friendly and welcoming, and the whole cinema, including the toilets, is really clean. Highly recommend!

   This cinema is small and reasonably priced. The staff are helpful and friendly. I very much liked this cinema as the screen was smaller and the seats are comfortable and all facilities we're close by. I would definitely recommend the Dome to anyone.

   What an amazing building .... So good to see it has been kept in near original style. Seating in the smaller screens is quite luxurious and so good to be able to take drinks from the bar into the seating. Great place to watch your favourite movies.

   I love the Dome Cinema. One of the few old school cinemas around that feels like it actually cares about the films and has a great history that's reflected everywhere in the building and foyer. Like all cinemas the snack prices are insane but the cafe offers reasonably priced drinks (and has plenty of wall art/history boards to look at while you queue). It also offers a great weekend mornings deal where you can get cheaper tickets for family films. Taking the whole family for £15 is amazing value. Highly recommend for an old fashioned cinema visit and I hope it stays around for a long time!

   Lovely old cinema, there are two types of screens, the main screen is a cool room, but the seats seem to be original so if you're watching a 2+ hour film it can be quite killer on your back. The other screens are a little more modern and the seats are great. Staff are friendly and helpful. Great value for money! Best cinema in Worthing.

   Visited as part of a photographic group. Busy bustling place with super helpful staff. Fascinating restored early cinema with exciting and surprisingly spacious interior. Worth a visit to bar for drink or coffee to enjoy the atmosphere of early film goer's experiences. See early projectors on display. Lovely first floor function room with large balcony overlooking the front pier and sea is being currently redecorated. Well worth a look inside bit of a hidden treasure.
