The 30 Best Theater & Cinema in United Kingdom

“What an amazing place, you feel like a star when you walk through the front doors glitz and glam. I will definitely be back if im in the area. Staff are super friendly and helpful. Xx”

“This is our local cinema. The staff are extremely attentive. Tickets & snacks are always reasonably well priced. Customer service is always excellent & the cinema's are always absolutely spotless. Staff are attentive & helpful at all times.”

“Excellent cinema! Been coming here since the early 2000s and glad Vue have brought it back from the brink. I see a lot of people complaining about the self service and comfort of the seats. For me the self service is way better (although I am an introverted Zillennial) being able to decide in your own time is great. The sweet section that was in the old cinema was the same premise. All the seats a much more comfy than other Vue cinema's I've recently been to, just because it doesn't have recline buttons doesn't make it any worse.”

“Carlene E was so lovely tonight, I turned up with no Meerkat Movie code, so I was messaging everyone I knew, she asked if I was okay and she let me use hers. She was so friendly and her customer service was fantastic. Thank you Charlene, I won’t go to any other cinema again.”

“Been going here for years, staff are fantastic, patient, polite and friendly. Screens are clean and there are several screens to watch many films. The recliner seats are comfortable and clean. There is a lobby for waiting just wish there were more seats to wait. Within the lobby you can get snacks, crisps, soft drinks, hot dogs, tortillas, and chocolates. They also do some fab milkshakes. Several disabled parking spaces in front of the cinema and automatic double doors on the right hand entrance. Easy access with a wheelchair, also lift facility for Epic (Imax) movies.”

“I Love reel cinema widnes because I been there for Elio King Fu panda 4 The seats were so comfy this cinema it was worth it”

“Very cheap and had very comfy seats! Staff are always amazing and friendly. Extremely sad this place is closing soon :(”

“Lovely building, it's a picturehouse so if you've been to any you'll know what's on offer - café, reasonably priced snacks and an interesting building. Attended screen 5 (pics - central row D), seats were very comfy and reclined enough so you can still see the raised screen without anybody's head in the way and without stressing your neck! Projection was decent and sound was good too! I watched a comedy so can't be too critical, no complaints! *Edit: went to screen 1 - beautiful auditorium, screen and sound... BUT the rake appeared worryingly flat. Not sure how easy it'd be to look over people's heads if the cinema is full and you get a tall person in front of you (god forbid it's also subtitled)!”

“Lovely Cinema,this is one of the bigger multiplex cinemas in the U.K. This cinema hosts 17 screens including an IMAX and Superscreen. The screens are warm and the toilets are very clean. The seats are very comfortable too. This is a great cinema with loads of eating and entertainment options nearby.”

“This cinema is absolutely amazing! Although a little expensive, I would most certainly say that it's worth the money! The reclining seats feel absolutely luxurious, and if you're lucky to have even just your row to yourself, you do genuinely feel like you're being treated like royalty!”

“The best cinema in Edinburgh. This is a large cinema with all kinds of cool screens. Their standards screens are definitely above average in size. Always showing the new films for a good amount of time. Then there’s the only IMAX screen in Edinburgh. 100 feet and so immersive! And lately the new 4DX theatres, really surprised me! The seats shake and rotate like you can’t imagine, but timed very well to the movies. They spray water, smoke and scents. It’s very fun!”

“I really like this cinema, slightly more expensive but so worth it. Big reclining seats and lots of room.”

“On Saturday 4th Oct, we visited showcase Paisley. We were served by Abbie, who really made our night. We had made the wrong booking and she helped us to fix it straight away, with no problem. She was extremely kind, helpful, friendly and warm and we were so grateful that she helped us. She made our trip worthwhile and we will definitely be back because of her!”

“Went to see Avatar in 4DX and half way through the film the screen broke. The staff were very apologetic, had to reset the screen and chairs and took about 15 mins to get everything sorted again. I've never had this happen before in the cinema but the staff were trying their best and it was no ones fault. At the end of the film everyone recieved a free cinema voucher while the staff again apologised for the issues. Other than the cinema was very good, the 4DX experience is great and would definitely come again.”

“Lots of screens. Several of the theaters have very comfy recliners in a more intimate "screening room" sort of setting. We were on the top floor and there was also a bar in the lobby area. Actually some stunning views from the lobby. The theater was clean. The sound was very good. The quality of the projection was solid.”

“This is one of my favourite Vue cinemas and it's in the heart of the St Enoch centre. You can buy your tickets and food on one of the screens as you enter. There's plenty to choose from including pick n mix, ice cream, nachos, popcorn and more. The seats are more expensive than normal cinemas but that is due to the comfort level. The reclining seats are incredible, each has it's own tray and cup holder. Great for an enjoyable day out.”

“Really enjoy visiting Showcase Cinema — it’s clean, spacious, and has that cozy vibe that makes watching a movie extra comfortable. You can pre-assign your seat online, which saves time and guarantees a good spot. They also offer nice discounts for members, students, and seniors. The staff are friendly, and the overall experience feels safe and well-organized. A great place for a fun movie night out!”

“So i decided to take the family to watch Lilo and Stitch today and it was the first time my sons had been to a cinema (2 year old and 3 year old). The service at the door was as brilliant and the movie started off great. However 15 mins into it, both of my sons started becoming restless and therefore to not spoil the movie for other people we decided to leave. After leaving I expressed my regret in having to leave to the manager (Jack I believe his name was) who then provided exemplary service and understood and appreciated why we had to leave. The professionalism and empathy he displayed was refreshing. @Cineworld - you need to look after that lad, he truly understands customer service!”

“Great cinema with extremely friendly and helpful staff, who really seem to be cinema lovers themselves! Prices are high, but with Omnipass you can see every movie for just £10 making it incredibly good value. Events specifically for Omnipass holders are always great fun, making the monthly subscription go even further. More of these in the future would be brilliant. The recliner seats in every screen ensure that no matter which movie you choose, it'll be the same level of comfort. A random perk is that despite tickets being digital, staff have been incredibly accommodating with helping me get my tickets printed to keep for scrapbooking, which I think really highlights their friendliness and willingness to support loyal customers. There is always lots of free parking available. Remember to order your snacks at the screens, as it's no longer possible to pay at the tills - staff have been very apologetic about this, but it is the new system that Omniplex has in place.”

“Since the refurbishment 5 years ago it’s been well maintained and looked after. The place is spotless and the staff are friendly and inviting. The screen quality is fantastic and the seating is phenomenal.”

“Great staff, a big sound out to Cassie who was really friendly, polite and a credit to the company. The IMAX was as good as always and the sound was exceptional. Parking can be a bit fussy but no great deal breaker.”

“Just watched Avatar The Way of Water in 3D for £6.00. Great sound and vision and the seat was large and very comfortable, with good legroom, especially important since the fim was over 3 hours long! Most enjoyable.”

“Took my daughter to see Barbie yesterday at Omniplex Larne - wow fantastic experience - lovely staff - friendly and helpful - spotlessly clean cinema and toilet area - in fact probably the cleanest cinema I’ve ever been in and I’ve been round them all ! - very comfy seats and on the way out staff actually asked my daughter if she had enjoyed the film and what the best bit was - genuinely interested in her opinion - thanked us for visiting and wished us safe home - will definitely be back - and would not hesitate to recommend .”

“Not actually my local cinema. But we were in St Neots on Thursday evening waiting for my daughter at a friend's party. So rather than go home and come back later, we checked out this gem of a Cineworld in the town centre. Staff were all polite and professional. Special thanks to the guy at the poster table checking tickets. He was really helpful and even offered to assist us from the foyer to our seats, with all our hot dog, drinks and nachos!”

“I really enjoy cineworld when I go, of course things are expensive but that's what you get at the cinema. The chairs are comfy, screens are a good size. Nothing to really complain about. Wish more people went to the cinema more often.”

“The best cinema l have Been it is nice and comfy”

“Watched Mine Craft and now Lilo and Stitch (real life) with the kids and loved it! The venue was clean and the staff were friendly. The cinema is huge with plenty to offer. There's a bar which I assume, is open in the evening, again adding to the experience. The seats are comfy and there's a bit of movement on the back suggesting a slight recline. We bring our own drinks and snacks as I simply can't justify the prices they charge at any cinema.”

“My daughter and I love coming here as its good value and has a great choice of films . Staff are very helpful and there is a great choice of cinemas snacks available , these could be a little cheaper however we don't mind buying them as the film tickets are good value.”

“Very comfy reclining and spacious seats. Great location right next to Festival Place which has lots of great restaurants and places for snacks. I like that they include closed caption showings of the movies too.”

“It was very convenient to book seats and food. Seats were clean, and the film started on time. Staff were friendly and helpful. There were no queues whatsoever (it was during the evening).”
