Suggestions for Indie Theater near London

Nin L. • May 17, 2016Invitingly welcoming & intimate local cinema - well stocked bar with a respectable gin selection. Wifi available.

Est D. • April 11, 2010Pretty much my favourite place in London. Amazing film selection, great value & just a fantastic place to get away from it all.

Thunder C. • February 20, 2015Hidden down the side of the BFI, the bar serves great cocktails with adaptations on classics (fig old fashioned pictured) and there's a chilled ambiance. Seating is limited however.

Christine R. • May 11, 2018Gorgeous indie cinema with armchair seating. Don’t miss £5 Mondays.

mark p. • June 23, 2012Great cinema. Friendly staff. They let you take drinks in. Have some interesting independent films and mainstream. Fantastic seats.

Marco S. • July 8, 2015Comfortable, less mainstream cinema rooms. Recommended.

Michael G. • December 10, 2023Fantastic atmospheric old theatre which has been partially renovated. Much more leg room than most old London theatre’s!

Ben F. • June 3, 2010Awesome redevelopment and fantastic pizza's to go with a great retro cinema experience

M D. • February 20, 2016Our new favourite place. Comfy reclining seats, good food and drinks, beautiful building. We like the sofa seats!

Raci M. • September 15, 2017Great place for coffee / tea in shoreditch with friendly staff! I'll definitely be back 😀

Brian R. • February 13, 2013May have eclipsed the Barbican as my favourite cinema in London. Comfy seats, reasonably priced, lovely building. Auditorium could be more steeply raked, but that's a minor quibble. Tres bon!

Puppala D. • January 25, 2016Great arts and film venue but sadly in decline

Rosephine F. • December 29, 2014One of kind, cozy cinema. Good for dates and groups.

Jonathan P. • March 1, 2020Great cinema and bar. Friendly and helpful staff.

Sascha A. • December 6, 2016Great theatre, terrific plays, excellent performances. Also a lovely little theatre pub downstairs and tasty pizza from next door. One of my favourite small venues in London.

Ricardo S. • December 16, 2014Classic local cinema. Cosy and interesting building. Screen and sound quality is not amazing, but worth it for supporting local business. They play one main movie every week, and some single sessions.

Martin J. • October 26, 2016What a pretty cinema with terrific indie films! Great space with beautiful interior, good bar and excellent seats. So going to come back soon

Dan B. • July 22, 2011A great play for a quiet drink in the centre of town, even on a friday night! The espresso martini is a winner.

D • November 16, 2012Unique acts and unique venue, very intimate. Organic vodka a plus! although gave me dragons breath! ;-)

Ronald D. • March 24, 2023Very comfortable seats, big screen and great selection of art house movies

Rafael R. • June 12, 2017Amazing! Great place, just nice!

Zinaida Z. • August 24, 2018Inexpensive, located in a buzzy oasis of bars. Have a nice ambient bar inside. Serve food and cocktails to take with you to the movies. Comfy, spacious seats. Good size screen. Never crowded.

Laura S. • September 6, 2014Great Caribbean food - jerk chicken, mutton curry. Relaxed atmosphere in the bar and somewhere a bit creative - feeling in Stratford.

Michael H. • December 8, 2014Well stocked bar. Can get 10% discount if a member. Very comply seats. Main screen is lovely.

Katie Z. • September 23, 2021Amazing performance. The staff were lovely. Skip the queue at the ground level bar - they’ve got a bar on each level!

Sebastian D. • August 31, 2023Great location, cozy seats and blankets, good headphone audio, very nice staff: what more can you ask for in a rooftop cinema?

Galal G. • April 17, 2018Very friendly & courteous staff.

David D. • August 28, 2014The place to sit back and watch British films made in 30s and more. Two hours give you plenty of time to browse collections and watch 1 1/2 films. Absolutely love this spot.

Alex B. • July 26, 2016Good beer and snacks, lovely staff. Probably my fav cinema in London :)

Rinat A. • June 25, 2015Great little place, came for some beer and watched a film. Really laid back and super friendly
