This is such a great cinema, a real traditional experiance. They have two screens, the larger of…read morethe two has a balcony and you can even sit on the back row in the double seats, how romantic!! My partner and I love sitting at the back, its a simple treat that cheers us both up. The second smaller screen is very intimate and is enjoyable when it is quite empty but I find it quite annoying if it is full up and there are people chatting or messing around. This is my one complaint about this cinema, I have seen quite a bit of silly behaviour from groups of teenagers and I know that this can be difficult for staff to deal with. I do much prefer this cinema to the big cineworld in Ashford for atmosphere and price, the only reason we would go to ashford is if the film we wnted to see wasn't on in Folkestone.

I love this cinema. It used to be the old town hall and was converted some 20 years ago to be two…read morescreens. The larger cinema has a balcony with the 2 seater love seats at the back. The seats in the larger theatre are a little small and uncomfortable but the ones in the right hand theatre have been replaced. What I love about this place is they still have a reasonable policy on charging for popcorn and sweets its only a little more than the shops, whereas at the larger multiplexes you end up paying more for a drink and pop corn than you did for the theatre tickets. This place is never a busy as a multiplex and its great for when you want to go to a new release film but cant be doing with the crowds at the multiplexes. Friendly staff, although it is upstairs so not good if you are disabled or need help.

After being spoiled by the Vue in Reading, I discovered to my dismay that cinema-going in…read moreCanterbury was pretty much limited to this. There are other, better options in Maidstone and Ashford, but locally, this is the option if you want to see something in its first run. There are only two screens, and the theaters themselves are the highlight of the experience. They both have excellent seating and interesting architectural details. Staffing, film options and concessions are the biggest gripes. The staff is congenial enough, but once I had to go back to the stand three times (once after the film had already started) before I finally got my hot dog. Most of the hot food is made to order, which is nice because it's fresh, but it means waiting around a long time to get it. Theaters aren't open until about 15 minutes before showtime. There isn't anything wrong with this, per se, but there's limited waiting space, which means that busy films cause clogged staircases. There's a little seating area on the ground floor, but no one really uses it. Finally, if you want to see a film, go the first weekend it plays. If you wait until the second or third weekend, it might not be there anymore. All in all, a serviceable cinema, but only because this is all there is in Canterbury.

This is such a funny cinema! it has a really comfy screen and a really uncomfy screen! the comfy…read moresceen is great. no more said. screen 1 on the other hand (uncomfy screen) is really high up! you sit in your seat with the fear of falling on to the person sat infront! not only that but there is literally no leg room unless you are two years old! This is fine if you are seeing a short film, but unfortunately it has more seat occupancy so this screen still gets used a lot. Like i found out when i went to see lord of the rings....my legs were numb after that! Good choices of snacks. £££ though.
