As well as being the best cinema in Derby, the Quad is also a great place to hang out in the day with friends, hold informal business meetings and also go for a relaxing drink in the evening.
On the first weekend of every month Reel Music is on playing soul, funk, disco, hip hop and all good music. Worth checking out.
Brian McCaulAugust 20, 2021Films of course... but super friendly staff and decent well priced coffee
Kids are welcome at all times. The staff are friendly. The food prices are a bit steep, but the food is generally good. I recommend the nachos!
Just ask for a password at the Cafe Bar. Lovely atmosphere to work in and the staff are great.
See a movie. The seats are comfy and the cinema is cozy.- Cilente BosmanJuly 14, 2012Visit Edge Lit festival today for a fantastic programme of alternative fiction workshops. Meet brilliant horror & fantasy /sci-fi authors
Rob SalmonMarch 6, 2010We like the quad. Great coffee. Quality beers. Lovely cakes. And access to an ace cinema. Oh yes, the quad is well worth a try...

The chilli is excellent although I recommend ordering a side order of garlic bread.
Try the BFI Mediatheque, totally FREE and over 1800 full films and TV programmes to watch
If you're eating (sorry for the cliché) have the Quad Burger. It's seriously tasty, and very filling.
Check out the coffee in The Quad bar. One of the best cups of Joe in Derby!

"Nice cinema; good screens, excellent audio and seats. Tasteful nuggets with sauce(s)!"
Julián Yáñez - 6.8
"Buy your tickets in advance and turn up for the showing 20 mins later than the stated time. You should still be able to get a seat and yet you won't have to sit through so many tedious ads!"
Gavin Llewellyn - 8.4
"The best place to sit is in the middle at the back of the auditorium. The sound is at its best there."
