Morgans Hotel GroupJuly 27, 2012It's just you, your date and max 43 others in this super luxurious cinema. Bring your cocktails in, relax enjoy the film, legroom to share. You may never go back to your local multiplex again
Louis VuittonFebruary 12, 2013Cosy up on the love seats at The Aubin Cinema and share popcorn whilst watching classic films and indie releases. The perfect location for a date with a fellow film lover!
MauiDecember 6, 2014Definitely one of the greatest cinema experiences! Cosy seats with a pillow each and the little footstools have a blanket hidden inside! Perfect with a glass of wine :)
Emily-janeDecember 5, 2018Very cute, cosy little Cinema, part of the Soho house group. Comfy arm chairs, cashmere blankets. Perfect for dates! Delicious snacks and great selection of wine/cocktails/coffee from the café.
A KFebruary 1, 2015A little pricey vs regular cinemas but worth the experience. I wished we had footstoools like Electric Cinemas on Portobello Rd, but the chairs were really comfy anyhow. Loved the vintage vibe!
An amazing little cinema with super comfortable armchairs and soft cashmere blankets... Oh, and you can take a bottle of wine while you watch the movie! 😉
Plan to come here to get the best seats which are on row C (05 is the most central couch)... Always a pleasure to come and watch a film here!
Evening StandardMay 11, 2012Lounge with artfully practised nonchalance in one of the luxurious velvet sofas, under checked blankets and enjoy the latest indie and art-house release along with a couple of scoops of ice cream. Read more
Berend Van ZantenMarch 21, 2016Pretty pricy, but totally worth the experience! Soft, spacious seets with private little table on the side. Delicious nacho's to take away!
Antonio E.May 5, 2013Luxurious Velvet sofa, blanket and live seats. To watch movies as confortable that at home. Plus the glass of wine of course!
Marco VoormolenMay 17, 2015Coolest cinema in London. Big armchairs and cosy 30s setting. Does get quite hot during long movies.
Lydia BerkennouJanuary 28, 2015Superb independent cinema. Cosy and comfy seats, bar in the basement. Located near the transports.
Holly PriestlandAugust 29, 2013Comfiest seats I have ever sat in in a cinema! Really nice staff and seats have holders for wine bottles, dream! Book in advance.
Nicola CookJuly 27, 2010Greatest cinema in London. Reserve the third sofa set in just under the projector for the best view
Front row seats are way to close to the screen, avoid! Also, get there a bit earlier if you want a blanket, there aren't enough for everyone!
Watch out for those large Peroni's or you'll be running to the bathrooms half way through your film.
