Amazing place! Love the art deco style, love the fact you can sit and have a nice drink from a nice glass at a table in a super comfy chair! Love the fella that comes out and chats before the film starts too, such a beautiful place and a real change from the usual hyped up cinemas! Definitely worth a visit, a true gem of a place!
This cinema is so retro and it's beautiful. Definitely give it a try.
I love the Rex cinema visiting once or twice a month is a great pleasure, especially to a matinee.
Brilliant cinema and deserves its reputation as one of the best in the country. A proper cinema experience.
Best independent cinema in South East England with friendly staff, great atmosphere and good films.
Fantastic Art Deco building also the atmosphere, the whole vibe is uplifting.
Fantastic food a little expensive but worth it! Really friendly staff... Would definitely go again!
We enjoyed a great afternoon here with the kids. You can treat the whole family to drinks and snacks without taking out a second mortgage.
Nice place, different viewing experience sat at a table in an armchair. Like being at home with a big screen and surround sound. Looking to go back soon.
Fantastic cinema. Huge comfy seats, lots of legroom. Highly recommend a visit.
Amazing Cinema, the downstairs seats are well worth paying for. Even if the movie isn't great the venue always is.
Please support the Rex. James and company need you now!
The quintessential British cinema, even more than that. This is not a visit to the cinema, this is an experience at the cinema from film introduction by the mildly eccentric owner to the luxury premier seating area complete with open bar. If you want to really enjoy a film, this is the place to see it.
A wonderful old venue to watch an atmospheric Polish love story told in the Cold War years. Both venue and film highly recommended.
Cinema doesent get any better than this. If you haven't been you are missing out.
Superb experience beautiful decor and the downstairs tables mean you can have a relaxing drink throughout the movie.
My favourite night out and the most attractive cinema I have ever visited
My favourite cinema hands down! Took my daughter this time for a Christmas treat & watched The Nutcracker. I love the oh so comfortable seats downstairs & I have a favourite table just in front of the bar where you can get drinks or food during the film without missing any of it.
Wonderful vintage gem in the heart of Berkhamstead. The most beautiful classic, art deco styled cinema with a fabulous array of old time hits, foreign art house films and modern day blockbusters - something for everyone! All served up in gorgeous comfort and with a big helping of community spirit. I challenge anyone to leave this little cinema without a smile on their face - regardless of the movie!
Amazing art deco cinema. Stalls around the top, tables and bar in the bottom. Always an introduction to the film from the owner. Class.
Superb cinema. Fantastic bar and nibbles. Super comfy seats
Wow! A wonderful venue. It was a real treat to sit in a comfortable chair with a table whilst enjoying a bottle on Merlot. Will be returning regularly.
Been a while since last visit, but great experience in large, spacious seats with excellent sound & picture quality in beautiful art deco interior.
Beautiful. Amazing seats for comfort, legroom and view. The best cinema - anywhere!
A glamorous cinema, comfortable surroundings, good atmosphere.
A lovely venue, comfortable seating. Pleasant small bar.
Been here many times and is one of the nicest cinemas near by
A lovely experience. Comfy seats. Good drinks (including wine). Luxury 1920s style building.
went recently and were still serving drinks and showing movies. brilliant sound. only problem is quite long adverts at the start. so come later.otherwise absoulutely fantastic
Excellent cinema Make sure you go for one of the tables down the front, really comfy chairs just like spring on a sofa and right next to the bar area
The Rex has totally changed the way I look at cinemas. Absolutely stunning venue - the cinema features a "normal" seating layout at the top half of the venue and the bottom feature a number of tables with swivel chairs. You can get food & drinks delivered to you during the film or even bring your own stuff - no need to sneak things in! A simple 2D screen, nothing special there, but the atmosphere makes up for this twice over and makes a cinema trip so much more special.
This is the second time we have visited and the place is nice. I like the fact you can sit in a comfy chair with a table and have a beer and some nibbles. The film we went to see was not the best but we chose that.
Small cinema, nicely fitted out in original styling. Normal seating upstairs with chairs and table downstairs.
Best cinema on the planet. Comfy chairs at tables where you can rest your glass of beer or bottle of wine. Often the films are accompanied by a q and a with a director, actor or producer. Well curated mix of old, new, mainstream or arty films. Beautifully presented and maintained building. A great evening out.
Very comfortable cinema. Loads of legroom. We went to see A Star is Born. Very sad at the end.
big comfy seats and plenty of room. downside.. no popcorn!
Great little independent cinema. Availability is always a problem though, but the lottery does help! They even serve cheese platters at your table should you have one!
So wonderful to see an independent cinema thriving. The art deco style is beautiful inside & out. The restaurant bars staff fantastic. I will definitely recommend it & return myself
Always an absolute pleasure to visit this visually stunning cinema that actually treats you as an adult whose able to drink And (quietly!) eat in the lovely comfy seats. Great quality and service provided.. Only niggle is the slightly tricky booking process...
The best way to watch a film. This is a superb art deco cinema showing a good selection of monthly films.
Great venue, ashame about fool who introduces the movies, he's only interested in foreign subtitled movies, and decides to run down any current Hollywood block buster movies that make the U. K one of the biggest movie producers in the world, I should know having worked at Pinewood studios for the last 36 yrs.
Stunning art deco cinema. They show some alternative fils too so if you fancy a great night out in Berko get yourself to The Rex
I've been wanting to go to this cinema for the longest time and wasn't disappointed. The most civilised way of watching a film ever! Beautiful surrounding, oh so comfortable seats with your favourite poison in your hand. We were sitting in the back row with reduced leg room but still had more space than with your big cinemas. All the other seats have the kind of leg room you would need for a giant with a perfect view. I can't wait to go again.
Fabulous cinema. Busy and not easy to get tickets. Parking an issue but all worthwhile once you are in and seated!
Beautiful place. Comfy seats and being 6 foot, the leg room was incredible!
Comfortable, personal, a great way to Cinema. Parking tricky
Good film. Changed seats for me as I'd bought wrong ones too near front. Staff helpful.
Puts the glitter back into cinema going. Big screen, big chairs, luxurious leg room. Wine too.
A beautiful cinema and a fantastic night out for cinema lovers
Art Deco cinema with a bar and table service. Great prices
Fantastic place to watch a film. My first visit, saw "Judy". The film was brilliant, Renee Zellwegger must get an oscar for her performance.
Comfortable. Better experience than modern cinemas.
As cinema used to be and ought to be. Beautiful building and decor, a real occasion
A great place to go to watch any film, a pure film lovers experience with great atmosphere. Ticket prices are reasonable too.
Excellent in every way. Great choice of old and new movies. Beautiful cinema. Table seating available downstairs. Bar open in the screen throughout the performance. Can order cheese and biscuits to be delivered to seat at start of movie. Very welcoming cinema.
What a fantastic experience. This is how cinema's used to be. Seats that are so comfy with plenty of room and the decor is mesmerising. The customer service is top class as well. Definitely worth a visit.
