★★★★★Featured review by Hetal Shah

I only recently found out there is another cinema in Romford. I am glad I visited it because it is lovely. The seats are more comfy than the Vue and not sticky. The cinema is clean along with the toilets. The food is pretty reasonably priced. I am really glad I visited because I am going to actually get the membership. I hope the cinema gets a bit more funding for the development they require. The staff are really lovely and helpful and Andy mentioned in the next few months there might be stand up comedy.

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families who want a personal cinema experience with genuine community character rather than a multiplex. All ages are catered for with mainstream family films alongside indie and classic programming. Private screen hire makes it a strong option for group celebrations.

Lumiere is such a great cinema, the team are brilliant and welcoming. They have showings of old classics and new releases; The Great Escape was super on the big screen. The seats, screen sizes (not too big) and sound make for a really comfortable experience. At Christmas I hired a whole screen for my scout groups Christmas treat, great value, great evening, 80 happy scouts! Go and support this charity.
