Saw a presentation with the Call The Midwife actors. That was excellent. Security raises questions though as nobody even checked to see if we had tickets. I was quite surprised at that.

This is an amazing place to see a movie. Lovely knowledgeable staff, very comfortable seats, sound and vision just perfect without the overly loud volume which hurts your ears and makes you wince. You can get some very reasonably priced tickets as well as see movies which haven't been globally distributed. I highly recommend that you visit this place.

My favorite place in London. All kind of arthouse movies, carefully curated. The seating, screens and reception are very nice, especially cleaner than the commercial chains. The ticket price is dirt cheap. Become a member and you can get even more discounts, early booking and viewing plan. If you love filmaking, the BFI is like your visual library, your playground.

Beautiful space to watch beautiful movies. Extremely clean, comfortable seats, and passionate staff who were happy to direct us to our screen. Also a good variety of food and drinks to purchase beforehand or for your show!

A proper cinema on the center of London - the screening rooms are clean, with eloquent decoration and design, making any film you’re watching feel like you’re watching a premiere.
The lack of fresh popcorn is a bummer but the extensive bar and cafe make up for it.
Would definitely recommend.

Great cinema for classical movies, I have seen A matter of life and death. The venue is very cosy with a bar and for every movie, there is a bulletin with an analysis about why it is appreciated - you can also watch a little video on youtube about what to notice in the movie before seeing it. That way it's easier to appreciate the older movies that might be harder to appreciate for a contemporary audience.
There are no ads before the movie so come on time!

One of my favourite places in London! They screen contemporary and classic films and often feature Q&A sessions with directors, actors, critics and more. Under-25s can get film tickets for £3 which was amazing for me!
