Reviews

‘Original and sometimes bizarre, this is a timely reminder of what “kids’ movies” can deliver in an era almost defined by superhero flicks and Disney franchise reboots.’

Our beautiful art deco inspired auditorium can be found just off East Oxford's Cowley Road.We are open 7 days a week. We open the cinema and box office 30 minutes before the scheduled start time of each film, and the Box Office then closes 10 minutes after the film starts. We only show a few adverts – less than most cinemas – and we only play a couple of trailers, so please don’t be late as the film itself starts very close to the advertised time!
