The 30 Best Theater & Cinema in United Kingdom

“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.”

“I first met Josh around eight years ago when he had just begun his business, carrying out a simple TV wall-mounting job for me. Even then, his professionalism and attention to detail stood out. Fast forward to today, and his company, Home Cinema Interiors, has just completed a full media wall installation for our new home, including a fireplace, painting, and flooring. The transformation is remarkable. The vision I had has come together seamlessly, and the quality of craftsmanship throughout is evident. Josh and his team have combined technical expertise with a real eye for design, creating a space that is both functional and beautiful. I would not hesitate to recommend Home Cinema Interiors to anyone seeking outstanding results, and I will certainly be using their services again in the future. Many thanks to Josh and his team for delivering beyond expectations.”

“Went last night 27/10/2024. Cinema was modern and fairly price. Seats semi-recline. Seats comftable and quality of sound and picture was very good. Screen 11 was empty with only 6 people in allowed us to have a more personal viewing. Films was smile 5/10.”

“Went to see a special screening of An American werewolf in London as part of the vice press open day. Lovely cinema with a great vibe. Highly recommend a visit.”

“First time visiting this venue and a cinema in I don't know how many years. The member of staff made it as easy as could be, a quick simple transaction and easy directions to the screen. Awesome air conditioning, especially with the uncharacteristic weather we're having. Should rename it Screen 3 Celcius. I was sweating buckets when I arrived but cooled down quickly within half an hour. That said, some may find it too cold so pack a jacket or something just in case. Fantastically priced too, competitive in a tough industry. I paid £10.49 in total, I wouldn't even have gotten in at the other places for a single ticket for that. So yeah, I enjoyed my visit and look forward to coming again in January if indeed that's the month the sequel to 28 Years Later will be. Thank you.”

“Its been quite a number of years since visiting this cinema, and what a pleasant surprise ! Not only is their "Insider" membership (which is free) a great incentive - cheaper tickets on a Sunday evening and all day Mondays and Tuesdays - (plus "cash back on purchases) but the seats are absolutely amazing. Massive comfortable leather reclining seats with foot rests and loads of leg room. Highly recommended !”

“Hip crowd, great movie selection, cool respite when the weather's hot, great selection of bars, restaurants and outdoor terraces to socialise beforehand, very LGBTQ friendly”

“Beautiful experience.such comfy reclining seats with plenty of bum room. Went to watch a 3 hour film and was most comfortable. Plenty of food choices and drinks on site and in a complex where you can grab a meal from other providers next door. Staff were professional and everything was straightforward and easy to use.”

“Excellent for new and classic films, their museum and everything child friendly”

“Went to see the new Bridget Jones film here, what a treat this cinema is. No repetition of the same big warehouse cinemas up and down the country but a unique experience. Loved it from the box office issuing paper tickets, well priced refreshments, interesting old film and historical film information, comfy seats and lovely atmosphere in the cinema. Great night out.”

“Unlike some cinemas that over charge for larger more comfortable seats. Every screen at showcase has the same eectronic recliners. Ticket price is decent and with the addition of the Insider card your constantly earing money off. Food selection is good and pick'n'mix is a personal favourite. In all its a brilliant cinema.”

“A fantastic local cinema with a great cafe next door.A friendly welcome at the door and quiet audience”

“We had our wedding here! Such a lovely charming place, and James and the event staff were very accommodating to us for our big day. I would highly recommend it as a wedding venue. The buffet was really good and well received (with a lot of extra food for guests to take home!).”

“Went to see wicked for good today at around 1:45pm with my mum who is disabled and uses walking sticks a lovely member of staff called Alex who was around 6ft tall and had brown hair was very kind and saw us struggling carrying our popcorn and our drinks so Alex kindly jumped to lend us a helping hand and carried our drinks for us walked at my mums pace offered to scan our tickets for us and walked us to our seats and put our drinks in our cupholders for us. Alex is an absolute credit to your cinema such a wonderful kind man Also loved the recliner seats super comfy and spacious”

“Good cinema with reclining chairs. The price higher than the competitors but the seat comfort might satisfy you. They got cheaper tickets prices Monday. Also with some promotions like if you have "meerkat cinema 2 for 1". They got insider cinema card where you can by tickets with offer and got some money back in the wallet put towards a another tickets. Also if yoy got company perks available you can save on those ticket prices too. If you love to go cinema just try it. Locate your nearest one. Enjoy your big screen entertainment!”

“Large venue, clean and cheaper than the odeon. Very comfortable seats and plenty of different viewing times to suit all.”

“Free parking (When you show your cinema ticket to the staff ask for parking validation. They will give you a card. Before you exit the building after your movie ends, go to the parking machine. Type in your car reg and the code, this will validate your parking) Great Cinema. Recliner seats, which are very comfortable. The staff are always welcoming and nice.”

“Cineworld Broughton is hands down one of the best spots for a movie night in the area! The highlight has to be the 4D cinema experience – it’s next-level. The moving seats, wind, scents, and effects really pull you into the action. Makes watching a film feel like an adventure! The cinema itself is spacious, clean, and well-kept. There’s plenty of parking too, so no stress about finding a spot, even on busy weekends. Loads of food options nearby if you want to grab a bite before or after your movie. Perfect place for families, date nights, or just catching the latest blockbuster with mates. Definitely worth checking out if you haven’t tried the 4D yet – it’s a game changer!”

“Great experience. Kids eat free deal. Good portion sizes. Children had the pasta and ice cream - polished it all off. I went for the double stack. Well cooked burgers and crispy fries. Booth with a view overlooking the water. Top service. All left happy.”

“We go to the showcase weekly. The people who work there are absolutely lovely and so helpful and knowledgeable. Danielle, in particular, is great. I’m disappointed to see that she’s no longer on the desk and there is a self serve screen to use instead. Nobody likes faffing around with self serve in the cinema. It’s the main reason we don’t go to the Odeon at Switch Island; it’s annoying, takes longer and removes the human connection that makes the Showcase different to other cinemas. As well as Danielle, the security guard (I don’t know his name sorry) is really helpful and knowledgeable about the films being shown. Every other member of staff has always been really helpful and nice too. The people who work there are what differentiates the Showcase from other cinemas. I could stay home and stream a film or I can go to the Showcase and talk to nice, interesting people who always go the extra mile and can discuss a film with us. There are bigger cinemas, posher cinemas, cheaper cinemas, etc but the people who work there are what makes the Showcase stand out. Thank you”

“Watched a film here on at least ten occasions, never an issue. Very reasonable ticket prices, booking online is even cheaper. Just like you can expect from a movie place, ridiculous food and drink prices but not an issue as Tesco is quite literally in crawling distance from the front doors. I can clarify from my own experience that Vue takes no issue with you bringing in any food or drinks from elsewhere, except (I believe) if it is hot food/drinks.”

“Good free parking with nearby amenities such as restaurants and coffee shop. Cinema looks clean and modern and staff were courteous on both occasions. Tickets not cheap but as I have Meerkat 2 for 1 offer, it's acceptable.”

“Great cinema Classic old school feel to it. Really loved visiting”

“Absolutely shocked how good the service was here, after recently having a bad experience at another theater will definitely be going back they also turn the lights off all the way while the movie is playing making it much more enjoyable to watch”

“Wow, I paid £9.00 for a super recliner. The seats were super comfy and super lush. No more touching elbows with strangers and no more having to move your feet out of the way when people want to get in and out of the aisle. The recliner is controlled by two little silver buttons on the inside of the seat to your right.. You get a little table with a cup holder for your snacks that swings forward to let you in or out and back when you are reclined.. The staff are friendly too and the toilets were clean.”

“Went to watch Jurassic Park earlier today to find the cinema absolutely empty. However, it seemed the teenagers in the front thought they were Jurassic and proceeded to give each other head the entire movie. Absolutely stunning sight as I watched a 7 bag a 10 and going down within 5 minutes. Would recommend as the seats were nice and soft and give quite the curve for someone with a plump bum like me. Hopefully next visit the teens decide to take it a step further. Can't wait!!!”

“Great cinema. Snacks are on the spendy side but the place is clean and warm”

“So lucky to have this cinema nearby! Loads of parking, always clean, and the seats are super comfy. The screens are great too — no matter where you sit, you get a good view. Perfect spot for a movie night!”

“Took my lad to the Sunday morning slot - really enjoyed it. Friendly staff, young girl on the till was great with my son.”

“Easy to get to venue (on ring road), parking just below with lifts and walkway up to venue. Clean venue except men’s toilets. Men’s toilets need refurbishment. No code needed for toilet. Cinema room has large recline chairs. Selection of food , drinks and ice cream to buy. Local shops and food venue very close to cinemas. Arcade very close to venue to entertain before or after going cinemas.”
