The 30 Best Popcorn in London

“Attended first Sunday lunch offering at Naughty Neighbour, the restaurant attached to Lawrence Arms. Started with a nice local beer, then the roast belly of pork with all the veg; also ordered the roast beef. All hot, tasty, filling, plus excellent hot gravy. We had booked and there were a few walkins. Finished with great apple crumble. Good value for money too, and reasonably priced wines.”

“AMAZING staff, so lovely and friendly, we did a fab deal for snacks with a soft drink, popcorn and little sweet/savoury pot for £9! We went to see Sinners on a Monday at 2pm and were the only people in the screening, comfy seats and lovely and clean :) Tickets were £14 each, absolutely worth it and would now always choose over a chain cinema!”

“Place is beautiful. A little small friendly cinema. Not too pricey on drinks or popcorn. Tickets can be a little expensive so be aware. The place has the most beautiful chandelier with beautiful wall papers to match. Great and huge mirrors. It's carpeted and well taken care of. Located in the heart of central London so there are restaurant close by. Very small and might be a little tricky find if you've never been to London before but Google maps is definitely your best friend. All in all Loved it.”

“Good cinema. Comfortable seats. Enough space to get comfortable. Good snacks and drinks options. Toilets are clean and tidy. Very good idea with crane /claw machines. Sofas to seat outside. Love to have Baskin and Robbins there. There are 12 screens. Me, my daughter and my friends really enjoyed the time.”

“I visited Wood Green Vue Cinema with my daughter. We came for a lunchtime screening, and the cinema was almost empty—just three other people besides us. The film was great, the auditorium was clean, and everything worked perfectly. I had read comments about poor lighting and sound, but we didn’t experience any of that. The staff were friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend!”

“The peak of cinema experiences. If you haven't experienced something like this before you will be amazed at the size of the cinema rooms. Massive would be an understatement. The lobby area is very spacious though they can do with faster service at times. There are no prices displayed anywhere at the counters which I find insane. You have to ask the staff how much every single thing costs to be able to make a choice. And post COVID-19 inflation has really had an impact and made cinema experiences quite pricey but that is not a VUE issue. One thing I really don't like is that you have to pick your seats with different seats having different pricing. That's a bit too much money milking for me. I would prefer they just had the lowest price and seats was first come first serve like it has always been. I paid for seating at the back and ended up in a basically empty room and couldn't help feeling like I should have just paid for the cheapest seats and just sat anywhere I wanted since the room was empty. One advantage of this particular location is that it is situated within a retail park so you can park for free, as opposed to other VUE locations that are within malls work paid parking.”

“I happened to stumble on Popcorns page by accident and I'm SO glad I did. Our 4 year old daughter (who was a prime covid child) has gained so much confidence attending these classes. She was also attending speech therapy and I can honestly say it has helped her more with her speech than any of her appointments. She is always so excited for Sundays classes and can't wait to show us all what she has learnt that day. Emma and the team are fantastic I can't recommended Popcorn enough”

“I am very happy with the service provided by Aline and Dani. My child and friends were over the moon with the final set up! The party was very well organized, no single detail was overlooked. can't wait to organize another sleep over! Highly recommended. 27Feb2022 This has been the second party Daniangela and Aline organised for our son’s birthday. Just perfect! From personalised items for the party to decoration, they helped us to prepare a fantastic party the kids loved. I will certainly use their services again.”

“I had the pleasure of hosting my daughter's 6th birthday party at this pub/cinema, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. The lady behind the bar went above and beyond to ensure that everything went smoothly. Her attention to detail, friendly demeanor, and willingness to accommodate our requests made the day truly special. The venue itself was perfect for the occasion, providing a comfortable and enjoyable space for both the kids and adults. The combination of the pub and cinema allowed us to have a great time with food, drinks, and entertainment all in one place. I would highly recommend this place for any event, and I'm truly grateful to the staff for making my daughter's birthday a memorable one.”

“we soaked up the charm of the Odyssey Cinema – a true Art Deco treasure in the heart of the city. Stepping into this beautifully restored venue felt like stepping back in time, with its vintage décor and cosy atmosphere adding to the magic of the experience. We had the pleasure of watching Home Alone, the ultimate festive film, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. The comfortable seating and intimate setting created a warm and inviting vibe, ideal for a relaxed evening out. What sets the Odyssey apart is its attention to detail – from the friendly, welcoming staff to the carefully curated film selection that offers something for everyone. It’s a cinema experience like no other, combining nostalgia and modern comfort in the best way possible. Whether you’re a film buff or simply looking for a unique night out, the Odyssey Cinema is a must-visit. It’s a place where great films, rich history, and a touch of glamour come together to create unforgettable memories. We can’t wait to return!”

“Amazing gem, really can't find enough fantastic words to say about the place, the people and my experience! The entrance is actually next to the building and up some stairs, the grocery store under was very helpful in directing me. Super welcoming bar/restaurant atmosphere, with smiling, friendly staff to take care of you. Plenty of food and drink options, including half and half salty/sweet popcorn. The music while waiting was a fabulous selection as well. The theater itself is small and comfortable, great sound and picture quality. But even better than all that was their advertising of local businesses and the fact that they provide a day for people with dementia to enjoy as well. Truly touched my heart.”

“Last Friday went to see the new Deadpool film at Pinewood Cinema. Cinema was inside Pinewood studios so was pretty cool to walk through it. Cinema sat about 100 and was fantastic. Big and comfortable seats with lots of legroom. Cinema was clean. Was a shop selling food & drink.”

“Loved it the ambience. From outside, it doesn't look like a movie theatre as its infront of a busy bus stand. So just as its look from outside, its not a big theatre with approx 120 seats with a fantastic bar inside (its one of the unique feature). They serve drinks and light food with of course-popcorns! The asthetics look old as the screen is still covered by curtain, which tells the theatre offers other than movies, which is great, too! Now let me tell you all how I got there. On the first of June, I got lucky to attend a private screening of Spiderman-Across the spider-verse along with a GUEST. The event was organised by little known Socios app and Arsenal FC. The guest was over the moon as it appeared as a birthday gift in blessing in disguise and furthermore, an avid Spiderman-to be precise- Miles Morales, fan! He enjoyed the two hours train and tube travel to reach the place and free cold Lemonade along with 3 boxes of popcorn! All free! Two fans won Signed Arsenal kit but everyone got free scarf as a souvenir! It was a free event however like to go this place with a ticket some other time. Please go and enjoy this place, I bet you will love it. NB: The guest turned xis and told me "he had a best birthday ever"! Thank you Everyman Screen on the Green, Socios and Arsenal!!”

“An excellent club sandwich at an excellent price, made by hand, fresh to order, by the really nice, friendly owner! Thank you!”

“Took my sons to watch a movie. Pleasantly surprised, quick check in process and nice and clean cinema. I would just say the you better get your phone or torch out to locate the seat letters/numbers, they should be illustrated better. Great cinema”

“Very cute old cinema that seems to be well-maintained and keeps a lot of its heritage. The seats were comfy with nice tables in between. The staff was helpful and the bar serves very nice popcorn. Ticket prices were reasonable, not cheap but not very expensive either. We haven’t tried the bathrooms as other reviews mention the bathrooms are a downfall. My main point is that during the movie it started with subtitles for the first 10 minutes then they restarted the movie without subtitles. For a 3-hour movie with a lot of events, characters, and details, having subtitles is really important to be able to keep track. Other than that everything was nice!”

“I absolutely love the Everyman in Kings Cross! The bar area is lovely and cosy — the perfect spot to enjoy some food and drinks the film. The staff are always warm and welcoming. On my most recent visit, I came with a large group, and Lauren, Zion, Eva, and Jess looked after us brilliantly. They were super accommodating, and our food and drinks arrived quickly despite the big order. I’d highly recommend this Everyman to anyone looking for a fun date night or a relaxed evening out with friends!”

“ODEON Luxe West End in Piccadilly is a great spot to catch a film in total comfort. The reclining seats are super comfy, the picture and sound are top-notch, and the place has a stylish, relaxed vibe. Perfect for a cosy movie night right in the heart of London.”

“Great venue! Large room for the event which a stage. The only problem was queuing for drinks took forever as there were loads of people attending the same event. I felt there could have been more staff members to cater for the event seeing that they were aware of the number of tickets sold. All in all, it was a great venue, large restaurant area, outdoor space and large toilet facilities too.”

“Wonder Ambience, comfortable seats , sound system is really good. We have good combos for food available. The movie watching experience was splendid & amazing.. Deserve 5 out of 5 Prefer family tickets which can save money.”

“I was in screen 8 today, when part way through the movie 2 people came in, disturbing the whole screen, and because it was a horror film, it ruined the entire atmosphere. Luckily, one of the employees, managed to come in and removed them, which helped me enjoy my movie again. Credit to the guy, he did it in a such great way despite the situation.”

“I really like this cinema, the staff are always helpful and friendly.great screen and chairs”

“Really great cinema, always have a lovely time when I go here. Staff are very friendly, and ready to help you out if you need it. The food is a bit pricey, but you can take your own sweets and drinks in.”

“Great food, great service and a warm welcome. We had the vegetarian platter and it was delicious. The injera was lovely - light and fluffy. I have taken a couple of stars off for atmosphere - the lighting seemed very bright so a cafe atmosphere rather than a restaurant (to be fair, it does call itself a cafe, but the food was definitely restaurant quality) and the loo, while clean, had no paper or hand towels. This may have been because we arrived quite late and caught them on the hop.”

“Frankly the best independent cinema in London! Privately owned by a very conscientious and community driven owner who keeps ticket prices low and affordable. Carpets could do with a clean, but other than that, this cinema RULES!!”

“We saw the film 28 years later. Massive screen as well as lovely environment! Staff were great and food was reasonably priced. The reclining chairs are a great touch too!”

“Loved our visit to Premier. The staff were helpful and friendly. Toilets and cinema was very clean. The cheapest cinema tickets, so didn't feel ripped off at £3.50 per ticket and £1 booking fee. Parking £1.80 for evening and that was before getting part a refund with an Asda shop!”

“We arranged a private screening for our daughters birthday, and could not have been happier - it was excellent value for money, booking was easy online and then the events team followed up shortly after, we pre-ordered food and drinks and upon arrival on the day the staff called the manager down to greet us who went through all the details. He gave us a tour, arranged for tables to be put out for the snacks, had the snacks all made and put out before the guests arrived and was on hand if we needed anything throughout the screening. We will definitely look to do that again in the future, it was a great experience! Thank you so much for making our daughters birthday one to remember!”

“Went for their 3 course meal, with additional appetisers, and everything had a WOW factor!! Our waitress full described and helped us appreciate each ingredient of our meals, and we dined in a warm ambience. There was a slight hiccup with our fillet which was very unfortunate, however, we overlooked it through our exceptional experience.”
