This is seriously the best cinema at this side of London. Why?

First of all they have 12 almost equally big screens. This means that you don't have to worry what screen the movie is showing, as they are all equal. The screens are about 5 to 6 meter high, which is acceptable but compensated because of the fact that the rooms aren't that big. In other words: any seat is a good seat.

Secondly, the seats are huge. Legs space is more than necessary. This makes it for me (1m85 Dutch guy) the ultimate cinema as I need some leg space. The sound is furthermore very good and I have never seen any "out of focus" projections.

Finally, you can order or reserve tickets online. There are digital terminals at the cinema if you want to skip the queue at the normal counter which also servers food. The big important thing is that the price is pretty low in comparison to some popular cinemas in the centre of London. They also accept students cards, which makes it a even more interesting price.

This is my "default" cinema to go for all those reasons. Any bad comment? Yes: they only serve M&Ms with nuts, which I really don't like.

This is one of the best places in london to see your favourite upcomming bands, but also to see huge stars perform very intimate concerts. i recently saw buddy guy here and it was amazing. the venue is big enough for a large crowd to get the muscians going, but also small enough to allow for things ( such as comming out into the crowd) which wouldnt be possible at large venues like the albert hall.
there is a clockroomm service, but i believe you have to pay, so try and only bring the stuff you will wear throughout the concert.
there is an underground just outside, and this is the best way to visit as parking is non-existant in the area.This is one of the best places in london to see your favourite upcomming bands, but also to see huge stars perform very intimate concerts. i recently saw buddy guy here and it was amazing. the venue is big enough for a large crowd to get the muscians going, but also small enough to allow for things ( such as comming out into the crowd) which wouldnt be possible at large venues like the albert hall.
