    Probably Edinburgh's best mainstream multiplex cinema. Numerous screens, a bar, coffee, and generally shows a more eclectic range of films than Odeon or the VUE cinemas in the city.

    Definitely get the cineworld card if you are a regular. Such great value for money and you get big discounts on food/drink/3D/IMAX movies. Well worth the investment. Double check your hotdogs though

    Leave time to get Popcorn the entire building seems to have the worlds slowest servers ever.... Imagine a sloth (flash from zootropilis) and think 5 times slower then that. They should get an award!
