★★★★★Featured review by Clay Johnson

Most every Cineworld we've been to has been great. This one is no exception. Set out over five floors, be prepared to play the zigzag dash, with the kids up the escalators, if your movie is being screened on the top floor. Vertigo anyone? There's a nice little Starbucks on the first floor if you've arrived extremely early, as we had. And there are concession stands on each level. The toilets are clean, which is always a bonus and the staff were extremely friendly and accommodating - always a plus. Rather quite randomly, there were amazing views over parts of the city from the top floor - a nice suprise and a wonderful perspective. Lastly, if you've driven in, don't forget to validate your parking on the ground floor (opposite the automatic ticket machines) for a 30% reduction on your fee. We parked at the parking garage directly opposite the Cineworld but I imagine it's for any and all nearby. If you're sneaky, like me, and you haven't watched a movie just nip in and validate your ticket regardless - nobody's watching. 😁😉 Enjoy.

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families with children old enough to handle escalator navigation across multiple floors independently. The wide format variety — 4DX being the standout for older kids — makes it worth choosing over smaller local cinemas.

â„šī¸ What to Know Before You Go

💡Book via the official website rather than the app for the best student and family discount rates
⏰Validate parking on the ground floor for a discount at nearby garages
đŸŽŸī¸VIP format is a self-service buffet — not table service as some advertising implies
🚗Ground floor Starbucks is a good option if you arrive early

“This *was* a great cinema - friendly staff, excellent range of movie that opened my eyes to what cinema can be. I saw superhero movies in the same screens as paradigm shifting documentaries, indie movie alongside 3D blockbusters. It even saved me being truly lost when I moved to the city as I knew if I picked it out on the skyline I'd be close to somewhere to get the bus or train home. It'll be missed, thank you.”

“Very dlgood cinema, they have many screen choices, I tried almost all of them: the 4DX, 3D, superscreen, and the normal screen. Great experience. Just one advice for students: If you want to get a student discount, just book through the official website, not the app. They also have offers for families and children. Also, they have VIP tickets with a buffet.”

“VIP (shown in photos) was a good experience, although don't be fooled by the video adverts that show a 'silver service' dinner service where you are waited on hand and foot - its actually a serve yourself buffet with 1 Indian meal option, 1 American option, 1 Chinese option, 1 Italian option and a British option along with sides and puddings. Some of The staff here could do with improving their attitude and to remember that income from customers pays their wages. 1 or 2 staff that I've come across really couldn't care less about the service they offer. Generally, an okay cinema.”
