Light House Cinema Review

Nice staff! Interesting design all around. Relaxing atmosphere.

Excellent place to watch a movie. This venue offers and alternative selection of movies, not only the "mainstream" American movies you can find in any other place.

They do author weeks and theme weeks, choosing a director or a topic to dedicate a full week.

The screens are very nice and you can have a pint while watching the movie, which is always a plus.

Best cinema in Dublin for me.

Cool film selection, respectful audience, but too loud and uncomfortable chairs.

Ate a light lunch here, it was delicious and very affordable.

Arthouse cinema good movies, well behaved patrons.comfortable and clean ,with good coffee bar

Great place! It has the feel of an art museum. Good choice of movies: a mix of blockbusters and independent jems. Also on the Luas line and easy to reach and away from the crowds that jam the most commercial cinemas. They also screen mother and baby shows

Beautiful cinema, with a nice program and friendly staff

Best cinema in Dublin, a unique setting, great audio visual experience, and full bar.

Great experience; unique design. Patrons are better behaved than in many other cinemas I've been to too.

Excellent cinema. Cannot be topped in my opinion. Staff are amazing. Prices are perfect.

Absolutely love the retro and blockbuster film showings.

Great space, big screens and can purchase a beer to have in the cinema, making movies all that more fun..

What an amazing hidden gem. Uniquely laid out Cinema with some classic movies. Well worth the trip.

, immaculate venue, laid back with an arty feel, set in nice area of the city

A great little cinema, with only 4 screens. They show a lot of independent films, but their programme is always thoughtful and interesting. Cafe and bar much better than other cinemas.

Great cinema. Good selection of classics and new movies. Prices are fair and getting parking validated means a day out isn't too expensive. Seats are comfortable, sound is pleasantly loud and the picture is one of the best I've seen. Very sharp projections. A must visit for any movie buff.

Yes for a great mother baby cinema group and friendly staff/ low prices

This cinema is wonderful if you want to make an experience out of seeing a film. Varied programme and really comfortable.

Favourite place for a movie and a beer. And Token is only around the corner, if ya wanna play some retro Arcade games!

nice modern place to enjoy untipical movies. good movies.

Somehow I don't enjoy breathing alcohol coming out everyone's stomach. Also, it's pretty much noisy. This opinion is based on many occasions experience.
What seems to be a cinema great strategy (to sell alcohol inside) looks a good reason to me to stop using the service.

Your usual movie theater, good audio and good screens, not much special about it

Twas good haiii.. We went to se pan labyrinth... The wine selection could be better but other than that... It did me a good night

Great movies, great staff and beuatiful decor. One of my favourite places in Ieland without a shadow of a doubt. Long may it live!

Way bigger than I was expecting. Feels like it got recently renovated. Cool place to see a movie

More than just a cinema, beautiful interesting spaces. A place to relax, chat or have something nice to eat or drink.

I love this cinema, it's just right size, not too big and they do great events. It's also just beside a nice pub so you can a wee drink before or after the film

Great cinema! Shows most big movies along with a great selection of smaller ones and frequent "specials" nights. They also have a cafe and a bar which means you can buy beer/wine to take into the screenings.

Nice alternative cinema, great set up. Very chilled. Arrive early as you aren t pre assigned seats.

Great venue, comfortable seating, great screen & sound.

Very good facility. Went to see a colleague's creation ( Frank Berry) on the screen. "Michael Inside". A film that should be compulsary viewing for all teenagers!. Great location.

I was delighted to see the lighthouse cinema open again it was always my favourite cinema experience when I was in city Centre. I believe the most comfortable seats in any cinema and plenty of leg space . Though I am saddened to see the admission prices rise pretty significantly 12.50 for evening viewing is slightly expensive. I understand times have been financially difficult for any entertainment don t mind Live performance. A tiered price structure with earlier viewings is something I d like to see. Other than that I still recommend this gem of a cinema

Such a nice comfy cinema and the wine bar add coffee shop add to the ambience.

Beautiful and modern in it's decor an excellent art house driven cinema. Comfortable seating and fellow patrons are always mindful of cinema etiquette. Serves a good selection of alcohol also.

Brilliant spot gorgeous quick bites to eat, great selection of craft beer. Theatres cosy and seats comfortable. My favourite place in Dublin

Excellent venue- was at "The Final Year" with a Q&A session with Samantha Power ...

Love it. They get in movies nowhere else does. Lovely seating, too.

A fantastic cinema in a very convenient location. I like them because I can go see big movies later on when all the big wave has gone down. And with busy life it is nice to have an option not to rush. Also their old movie showings are great. Like before new Blade Runner they showed the old one. Very cool

I usually use Vue Liffey Valley (local to me) but tried this cinema and was pleasantly surprised. More mature and trendy crowd it seems. Will use this more often.

Fantastic, cool independent cinema, amazing decor, lovely staff and the most comfortable seats. Great movie selection and a very inviting atmosphere!

Best cinema in Dublin, never have had a bad experience there.

Very comfortable seats and a good selection of films and drinks. Friendly staff.

Nice cinema, needs more of a current selection of films and also discounts on parking.

Love this comfortable small cinema - often showing interesting off beat offerings

Best cinema in Dublin. Good food, friendly staff and great selection of the best of Irish, art house and foreign films. Along with screenings of National Theatre live.

Possibly the best cinema in the city. The cafe is fantastic and the movies they show are usually more interesting than the alternatives. If they had a scheme on par with Cineworld's Unlimited scheme I would never go anywhere else.

Smithfield is like something from a JG Bllard novel.

I loved this place because the staff were very friendly and helpful

I was always have a good time here. They show alot of classic films and sometimes have q&a's. Only problem I would say is drinks are too small when you get popcorn you would need like two drinks. Overall a great experience would recommend it to friends.

Easily the best cinema in Dublin. If you're not looking for major blockbusters anyway.. Not quite as art-house as some cinemas but defintely the coolest.
Comfortable and spacious.
Decent bar and you can bring a drink into the screen with you.
Nice cafe, and they have a good selection of Gluten Free snacks for Coeliacs like me (Keoghs crisps, Aines chocolate, jelly beans, GF beer by Estrella and Wicklow Wolf).
Really good loyalty scheme, and friendly staff!

This cinema is an amazing escape from the rest of the city. It doesn't have the high foot traffic of the omniplex's in town but its also not as "elitist" as the IFI either. Its comfortable has an eclectic line up, great seasonal programs and a fantastic bar in the basement.

Staff are friendly and clearly movie lovers and generate a great atmosphere throughout.

Modern well designed cinema, good art house program

Always a pleasure. A great selection of films, knowledgeable and friendly staff, a well stocked bar and comfy surroundings. You couldn't ask for more.

Lovely cinema, great film choices and best of all reruns.

Was here for the first time on Father's day to see Made of Stone. Great movie and even better, you can bring your beer to your seat .... totally civilised

Brilliant cinema. The atmosphere is very relaxed and the seats etc are really nice. Would definitely recommend it as it s easy to get to as well as being relatively cheap. They also do a lot of good offers - especially for students.

Attended In-Vision video art festival. Nicely organized with a chance of meeting the artists and have questions answered

What a great place, where modern design meets really good movies, and there's a bar there as well :)
