Tyneside Cinema, Newcastle upon Tyne Review

A unique Art Deco treasure and popular cinema with gallery, function rooms, cafe and coffee rooms. Lower prices on Tuesday. Educational events for all ages Historic building. Cinema founded by Dixon Scott, great uncle of Ridley and Tony Scott (film directors).

Just seen a fantastic film, got to go see Pin Cushion, director Deborah Haywood 's first feature is both touching and thought Provoking, excellent

Local independent cinema with very comfortable seating. Great choice of films showing and friendly, helpful staff.

Rain. So. Good feelgood film. Good fish and chips. Good pot of tea.
What more can you need?

By a country mile, the best cinema in town. Bar/cafe also excellent with great food and interesting beer selections.

Fantastic experience... My children attended a birthday party here.. They had so much fun...! Party organiser was fantastic, lots of fun for the children...!

Gem of a place. A cultural high point in the town centre that should be cherished. Great for a relaxed coffee as well - doesn't seem too busy which is great if you want to meet for a chat or to dissect the film you've just seen - I always go there.

Excellent cinema first went there in late 60s. Good screens: only problem slight step at edge of seating area, not adequately lit.

This is a lovely cinema. It has a beautiful building and they show a broad range of films.

Better than a multiplex but not a great independent.

Great venue, especially for seeing some more unusual or older films. The bar downstairs is perfect for a few pre movie drinks and snacks!

Fantastic cinema with fantastic staff. Can't recommend the Cinemas learning programmes any more highly

Excellent and varied menu in the cafe. Wide range of films at a fair price. Free exhibition. What's not to love.

Beautiful cinema, with gorgeous decor and sumptious chairs, tickets are slightly cheaper than the cineworld round the corner and tyneside is a much better experience with a lovely bar and cafe too. The main screen is a little small but the sound is excellent and the seats are layed out well. Best cinema in newcastle!!

Great time. Lively and vibrant Quayside area.
Great food and fantastic service at the Sambuca restaurant highly recommend.
Sunday market for morning breakfast and treats as you take in the sights along the Quayside.

This cozy and small cinema is great to watch less mainstream movies.
However, I am rating it 4 stars because they do not sell freshly made popcorn and I actually love having popcorn at the cinema.
Hope they change their mind about this.

Gorgeous cinema, comfy and spacious. Very helpful staff. Reasonable price for snacks and drinks. You can use meerkat movies here too but have to do it in person and they have good rates for students and consessions. Ideally situated in the city centre. It has a restaurant and coffee shop attached both of which are lovely to visit at the same time as going to cinema or just totally separately.

Love the decor and the history of this place. A wide variety of showings and activities.

Best cinema in the town, several good screens and always good service

Brilliant independent cinema, quite cheap and great atmosphere.

Great atmosphere and beautiful venue. Very reasonably priced tickets

Great cinema with a good selection of less mainstream screenings, but some rooms are not well designed. Classic room has a screen too small :(

Comfiest cinema in Newcastle. Great selection of snacks and drinks.

Very affordable and quirky cinema. Great bar, staff, and cool screens. Screens aren't as good quality as Odeon let's say, but it's not that important. Go!

A great selection of niche and art house movies in a recently refurbished set of cinema screens. The adjacent cafe bar is also brand spanking new. The atmosphere is buzzing, friendly and warm. It attracts a more hipstery crowd . It's all terribly civilised and that great when you're after a quiet drink or bite in a more refined and laid back spot

The best cinema in the whole North East. So authentic to have a classic cinema to enjoy amongst all the chains in the modern world. For the best (and certainly most comfortable) experience in film, I recommend Tyneside Cinema to the highest.

Places like this need to be supported. Great cinema showing independent films.

The Tyneside Cinema is in my opinion the jewel in the crown of Newcastle. Always has a great selection of films on. The cinemas are all great spaces, all slightly different.
Several cafes which all have a different character and are all great.
I won't watch a film at any place other than the Tyneside in Newcastle and neither should anyone else.

It's a great atmosphere and it's in the middle of town with a good selection of food and drink.

I like to see all new movies here because they're don't choose the commercial ones

Finally, a cinema with character! We don't normally do cinema that often as let's face it... It's generally a rip... I night here though is more of an event... Great cafe, good food and great viewing... Totally recommend!

A nice, local cinema which provides a different experience than most multiplex types. They also show unique films of different types; arthouse and the like.
The cafe(s) are great as well.

It was an enjoyable day with our ADHD group. We had a room to ourselves where the children played games then went to a different room to watch Peter Rabbit and all the children had popcorn and juice. Staff were lovely

Cosy cinema, very comfortable, plenty of leg room, a great cinematic experience

The best Independent Cinema bar none - lovely staff, great screens and fantastic savings for Friends, not to mention regular small Film Festivals and big screen revivals as well as the last regular Newsreel screenings in the UK in a stunningly renovated building. What's not to love?

A regional and national treasure. Every inch of the tyneside is beautiful and tasty.

Good location and great variety of events in the city centre

Going to the Tyneside Cinema is like meeting up with a much-loved, old friend - who you feel at home with but who is still full of wonderful surprises.

I've been going to the Tyneside for years and the eclectic, stimulating range of films just keeps getting better. It offers a whole wide world of film discovery - if I could I'd go EVERY day!

Lovely place, nice feel to it. My favourite cinema in Newcastle

I love the Tyneside Coffee Rooms - an elegant oasis of calm amidst a busy city

Quaint old cinema, takes you back in time. Lovely theatre atmosphere.

Since its refurbishment good place to chill. I hope the Brexit business does not cause it to lose some of its funding.

A brilliant independent cinema, with a cafe and bar, showing a wide range of films.

Good friendly atmosphere nice beer and drinks selection

Went here for brunch today and it was amazing. Great quality food, lovely surroundings and the service was spot on. Cant wait to go back.

Welcoming and comfortable seating. The sound system does not blow your eardrums

Wide range of films. Including more difficult to find stuff. Reasonably priced.

1st visit to the tyneside cinema last night. We absolutely loved it. Stunning building, lovely friendly staff, extremely comfortable chairs. This will now be our cinema of choice. So cosy and brilliant snack and beverage choices. Thank you for such an enjoyable evening.

It's an alright place to see a movie. The staff are pretty friendly. The screen quality is poor though, whenever anyone stood up you could see their shadow on the screen.

Wonderful place that's so busy, lovely clean environment with pleasant staff.
Great support to people of the North east with their attention to bringing homeless people into the cinema with their scheme.

Very friendly inviting place very clean plenty leg room between rows of seats only reason not five stars is was very hot in the studio could of done with a little air con

A must visit in Newcastle. Shows a wide range of mainstream and independent cinema, plus three lovely spaces to eat and drink. Very inclusive space, feel comfortable visiting alone or in a group to watch a film or grab a drink.

Awesome cinema. Interesting and querky building. Many screens

Great cinema staff are fantastic! Very well placed so easy to get too! Would recomend!
