In my humble opinion it is the best in the North East, it has a bar and diner upstairs, it is next door to a McDonalds, Frankie & Bennies, Pizza Hut and a local pub so you are not restricted to just the cinema if you have a while to wait for your screening or you want some food or drink after the movie. There is an Asda a few yards away also which comes in handy if you would like to do a bit shopping on way hom also. The cinema itself is really comfortable, the seats are really comfortable and roomy and I think this is one of the main things I like about this cinema and sets it apart from other cinemas Ive visitedoh and the popcorn is the best I have ever tasted!!

It's quite a surprise that Alnwick boasts such a theatre and cinema. The Playhouse puts on a range…read moreof productions throughout the year including music, theatre, dance and pantomime. Music ranges from traditional Northumbrian through contemporary and even stretches to a decent opera programme. The cinema does tend to concentrate on popular hit films, but they often have one-off showing of great older and foreign films. It's easy to recommend the Playhouse and it's very surprising that Alnwick has such an upmarket and interesting theatre in its midst.

Prices a bit expensive I think but still a nice place to go. Better to bring snacks with you as theirs are very pricey as well as the drinks costing a fair bit. If there is a panto on or a new show then it is packed so be prepared to arrive earlier. The seats are dead uncomfortable though so bring a pillow if you need it. Usually find the back seats go first as they have more leg room, so arrive earlier if you want those seats.

I know cinemas have a reputation for being a lot of money, but this is the most expensive one i have been to before. The only way you could really get your moneys worth is if you went to the cinema more than a few times a month then you could get an unlimited pass. otherwise its an expensive night out. On the other hand the actual screen are very good, seats are the comfiest I have ever seen in a cinema.

They also have a lovely Ben & Jerry's ice-cream counter that serve sundaes and gorgeous ice-cream milkshakes. If you're going in the late afternoon/evening on a popular day (e.g. Fridays, weekends or Orange Wednesdays) then there can be quite a long queue for tickets but it moves quite quickly. There's plenty of leg room but the floor can get messy/sticky so be careful about putting your handbag under your seat (mine got covered in chocolate sauce once!) There's a bar upstairs but during busy times the seating is very limited.

It changed from a UCI in recent years and since then we have suffered a series of price hikes, £6.80 being the standard price for adult admission, but then you need to remorgage to be able to afford the pricey film food (bring your own). They show a good range (although not all) of the current blockbusters and also hold kids clubs at 11am at weekends, as well as special senior citizen showings, priced at only £3. You even get free tea, coffee and biscuits. Directors Cut showings of rare or foreign language films are also popular, check out http://www.odeon.co.uk for details.

The Vue cinema, a large modern cinema from the chain of Vue cinemas - pretty much a rising chain…read moreover the last few years. It is quite confusing to get to as you almost appear to be driving past it to get into it so if you're a driving visitor to the area I would recommend looking up the route before you go. The cinema is a really big complex right near a pizza hut. The area it's built on looks really modern with big sandy stones. Parking is free. Inside it's pretty much like other vue cinemas, a huge blue decorated entrance room with the big pink neon signs and a door to the left which direct you through to the screens. The prices aren't really that cheap for the area - there are cheaper cinemas in Middlesbrough but of course that's a little out of the way so you might be better saving on petrol costs! I think it's around £6 for a student ticket which is what I get and a bit more for adult prices. The vue cinema has a really cool aura to it once you go through to the screens - the lights are all dimmed and each screen is indicated by a large bright pink neon number. Beware though - some of the screens are hidden round bits of protruding wall. The screens are all really nice with the seats arranged so that each row is much higher than the next in order for people who a tiny to be able to see! There are also some boosters you can use for particularly small children who might struggle to see. The actual screen is massive so I would advise not sitting near the front. Refreshements aren't cheap but you can't take in your own. Overall it's a bit expensive for me and I only tend to go if its for a specific reason.

Nice clean good value for money only complaint was its quite a cold cinemaread more
