๐Ÿ† Funzaroo Verdict

Best for families with older children and teenagers who appreciate a quieter, more premium cinema setting. The intimate size means showings rarely feel crowded. Staff are consistently praised for their helpfulness.

โ€œHad a superb 'quiet' showing of the Bone Temple 28 yrs later. Hardly anyone there. Those that were, were respectful of not making noise or gorping at their phones every five minutes. The film was superb, and I'd happily go back when another film I'm wanting to see shows there.โ€

โ€œI had an amazing experience at The cinema in the arches. The manager was very lovely and explained the tickets to my granny, I think the manager's name was Sophie. She showed her all the snacks and took her time would highly recommend this cinema. Thank you!โ€
