Electric Cinema Reviews

Love it! Nice unique cinema experience. Only they serve sweets, drinks, cakes....but no popcorn!

AMAAAAAZING super comfy beds!! Great experience while watching a film of your choice!

Saw Harry Potter the pre a few years back. Awesome.

Loveee this place, the most comfy place to watch a movie.

Great, to do absolutely. For the French it is disturbing to eat and lie down in the cinema but it's great to live!

Cute little theatre on Portobello Road. Nice big arm chairs to sit in for the movie, they even have blankets for the colder days too.

They offer a variety of snacks and drinks as well, but best to order before the movie starts. There is always a bit of a que when ordering, so get there early. Also best to pre-book online so you can pick your seat.

The old school cinema with armchair seats separated by a small round table, I assume to make sure you don't get to hold hands with whoever your there with!!

No popcorn. The biggest disaster. There's a pic and mix section that you can buy boxes for either with your ticket or the bar that's located at he back of the auditorium. Expect long queues for the bar and it closes when the movie starts.

It's a cute little place that's worth a visit.

Rip off prices lousy sound! You can eat whilst watching latest movies & disturb your fellow viewers with your masticating gums chomping away if you've got any teeth left by the time the NHS dentists have done with you. Has big comfortable leather settes one can slide off of onto the floor..if film is of the borring kind!

Slightly overpriced, but probably well worth it. Keeps the riff raffle out. Big comfy seating. Good for couples.

We got a first row bed and the view was surprisingly good and comfortable. Fun and worthwhile experience! Saw some couples on second/third dates and it seemed ideal :-)

A fantastic cinema experience for the enthusiast. This isn't your run of the mill cinema - the emphasis is on luxury and extravagance. The seats are superb, I was on one of the sofas at the back which was very comfortable. There are also beds at the front and armchairs in the middle. Everyone gets a footstool and a cashmere blanket. I ordered doughnuts from the bar (there are no crunchy, loud snacks on offer like popcorn which made me very happy) and they were made fresh to order as a box of warm cinnamon sugared mini doughnuts, which I highly recommend! The film was great and there's some clever tech in the screen as it expands to a full size canvas having started looking worryingly small!

It was expensive, easily double a ticket to a regular cinema, but this is worth it for a special date night or a treat as it is a very different experience. I also thought the sound quality wasn't quite up to my standard, dialogue was very quiet, however there are two reasons this may not be a fair criticism: firstly my seat was at the end of the back row, furthest from the audio sweet spot (which should be the centre of middle row) and also I work in the industry and check things like audio levels on a daily basis so might be slightly more critical than a non-specialist.

Overall a thoroughly enjoyable experience, and one that I would be happy to repeat again two or three times a year!

I love this place! We won a competition to see Jupiter ascending and it was showing here. We were stunned when the seemingly tiny screen grew in front of our eyes! the armchairs and footrests that EVERY seat has are comfy! the little table More

Luxury cinema might not be something I could afford every week but I certainly felt like I day getting my money's worth. Best described as "cinema for grown ups". Had a great experience, saving up for next visit.

The Cashmere blankets sum up the experience themselves

Need to experience this going to the cinema will never be the same

If all cinemas were like this, I would never watch movies at home, an amazing atmosphere and really comfy!

Stunning interiors, very stylish. In typical Soho House style. Comfortable chairs. The sounds system could be better, more modern. To try once at least.

Great place for food. As long as you ignore the pretentious w**kers. Good service. Food is fantastic.

Wonderful experience, amazing nachos, seats are unbelievably comfortable and there are even blankets in the footrests, couldn t have been better. Great for a birthday trip or a reason to visit London.

Lovely cinema with a quirky ambiance and super comfortable seating.

Well guys, a movie here is priceless, do it one in your life !

My favourite small cinema. Great for family and date night

Fantastic place for grown ups to experience a great cinema setting. Great seats as sofas.

What can I say ...... My colleagues recommended this and have to say had an amazing time here watching JOKER. Food was good, red leather seats, red leather footstool, side table and lamp, food served at your seat , seriously, can you ask for more... LOVED everything about this place

I booked a table for 8pm, when I arrived (on time) the table I had booked had been given away to someone else. As such I was given a different table (on the condition that I be finished by 9. The seats were uncomfortable and broken. The waiting staff was fine to begin with, the food was also fine. It was 8:40 when it came to ordering dessert, and i thought that we'd be finished and out of there by 9 (as requested), however our waiter never returned to take our dessert order. I tried to flag down other server but was ignored, until some 25 minutes later our waiter finally turned up. Id asked to order the donuts but was told that they'd just sold the last one. I was fuming at the treatment I'd received, and promptly asked for a lesser dessert to go. I asked for the bill, 10 minutes after that request and well past 9pm at this point we paid our bill and received death stares from the concierge on the way out, overall this was quite possibly the worst dinner expirence I've had in London, I'd definitely recommend not bothering with this place.

This place is truly stunning and offer a different experience, 100% worth a visit!

The word quaint could have been invented for this place. There was a movie on when I visited so I don't know if they have coffee drinks ice creams or loos but they had a very pleasant (tiny) foyer and good advance information about the movies

Worth an experience - important to arrive on time in order to have a full choice on the food available

What a great way to watch a movie! Comfortable leather couch with a footstool, great food and a large screen. Absolutely recommended.

comfortable vintage cinema, with couches, bar and food, and even beds at the front.

A cool Indie cinema playing mainstream films. Sit back and enjoy your film in a leather armchair, wrapped in a blanket (provided), and put your feet up. The Electric Cinema offers an experience like no other.

The best cinema experience in London. Tickets go quick but the experience is top notch for the price

The best way to watch a movie. It takes you back in time when cinemas were not just how many people can you squeeze in one auditorium but how comfortable it is. You get your own armchair to crawl in and a foot rest ottoman. If you open the ottoman there is a cashmere blanket in there to wrap around you and feel cosy. There is food too and drinks that you can enjoy from your little side table with a cute little lamp. It is not pricier than a usual cinema but you get so much more for your money. Food and drinks are not included in the ticket price.
Enjoy:)

You need to book in advance, especially for good movies or event night.
Comfy seats. Bar. Blankets (tagged so you can't remove)

Fantastic cinema with spacious and personal seating. Has s small bar that serves snacks and alcoholic beverages. This is THE way to watch big screen entertainment

Fabulous place. Regal, radiating style
and comfort. Full of history. A must
for the experience alone. Great service
from a dedicated team.

This cinema is divine! Cushy chairs, cashmere blankets, bar, little tables and an excellent film offering. Make sure you book in advance as these tickets sell out fast!

Unbelievable place. Very luxury cinema. Bar inside. Very confortable armchairs and king size beds on the first line. Amazing.

Really nice movie theatre with really nice seats. Worth a visit.

Such an amazing spot to visit, burger bar next door is immense and the cosiness of the cinema is simply brilliant

Iconic Notting Hill movie theater showing current movies, and classic flicks. Wonderful interior space with lounge seats, cashmere blankets, a bar, food and snacks, and ottomans to kick your feet up while you sit back and enjoy the show. There are also front beds, designed for two people to lay down and watch the movie, which is super fun!!!

Lovely venue, bust cinema in London! Comfy seats, accomodating staff, and a brilliant experience! No one on their phones during the film, no one talking, no reason to go anywhere else! I will be back!

Really comfy seats, great nachos. Very efficient staff. Good selection of wine and beer. Bad pic n mix. There's no popcorn.

Best cinema experience! Front bed was great choice - we could take our drinks with us on a nice tray and had cosy blankets and cushions :) the cinema hall looks like a theatre inside which creates vintage feel. American diner next door were amazing: burgers arrive super-fast and cocktails were exceptional!

This is by far the best cinema in the country sofas beds armchairs the way the screen comes out the wall is something else even the toilets are special ideal present for birthday aniversery or special occasions for special people in your life total class well worth the money

Brilliant as always! Such a great venue, every time is a great experience. Would definitely recommend the sofas at the back, and the pick n mix. So comfortable and luxurious :)

One of the most comfortable cinema experiences. Nice to have a bottle of wine. Odd that the old fashioneds came out of a bottle but great for speed and didnt taste too bad at all.

Accidentally booked tickets for the Portobello Road branch last night, but the staff at Shoreditch were really helpful in transferring the tickets without any fuss and getting us into the film on time. Really appreciate that.

Vintage and romantic cinema with beds and sofas. A special experience and the movie was nice.

personal fav. very romantic. snacks you could get before screenplay are awesome. not-to-mention location. less hipster-ish.

A great night out! Very comfortable seats in an amazing cinema. A brilliant place to enjoy a wine (bottle) and a movie

Fun idea to make a cinema with leather armchairs with foot puffs to stretch out on., Bar in the lounge where you can buy drinks and snacks for the show before. One star is missing when the heat wave salon got warm, however, 34.5 was out so no daily problem

Big comfy chairs. Food and drink.
Blankets and cushions.
A very civilised way to watch a movie.

The service was very friendly and welcoming but the food was pretty disappointing. We were made aware of items that had run on the menu after we had been looking at the menu for 10 minutes, because of that we all had to go for our 4th choice. Cobb salad was not enjoyable, and chips were a bit soggy.

The actual best cinema in London. I watch a movie here at least once a month. It's put me off going to normal cinemas. Very friendly staff. They don't serve popcorn, get a tray of cake instead.

Huge comfortable armchairs, great service and plenty of space to relax. Cinema was quite warm but there is the option of a cashmere blanket for each seat!
If going as a couple I would recommend the sofa or beds (yes there are sofas and beds!).
Great place and would go again. The ticket price was worth it.

Great place and good screen size, food is cold but the place is like an oven! Kept way way way to hot

An excellent old school experience. Lovely cinema, comfy seats throughout. Good views for all. As expected the snacks and drinks are a bit pricey - except for the pick & mix. That was exceptional value.

A unique place ! You watch a movie in an old style (but beautiful) room, you are in the most comfortable chair, you can drink. A real differnet universe. Please, try it even if the frontside of the cinema seems a little "ordinary" ...
