There is something ten times more elite to going to the cinema and getting lost in a movie without any distractions (as long as there is no one chattering) than watching the same movie at home. Edinburgh is abundant in the best cinemas to choose from, from comfy couches with table service to legendary independent movie theatres.
1. Cameo Picturehouse
Anyone and everyone who is after a diverse selection of the best films from around the world will opt to go to the Cameo Picturehouse in Bruntsfield. Plus, cinephiles can join the Film Club, which offers a selection of screenings for just £1.
2. Everyman Edinburgh
Everyman Edinburgh not only boasts comfortable velvet couches and armchairs, but also brings guests their snacks and drinks straight to their seats. Located on the top floor of St James Quarter, film lovers can find all the latest screenings at the retro-style cinema, as well as a trendy bar and lounge area to socialise in before or after the movie.
3. Vue
Those who are on a budget will be glad to hear cinema tickets at Vue now start at £5.99 on Fever. Guests can opt for a more central location at the Omni Centre, or go for the recliner seat experience at Ocean Terminal in Leith. Plus, cinephiles can take advantage of the Super Saver Combo Deal, getting 1 Large Popcorn + 1 Large Drink for £10.49.
4. ODEON Cinemas Edinburgh
ODEON Cinema on Lothian Road is another central spot to catch all the latest movies on their fancy chairs. Fever is offering over 30% off the tickets starting at £6.99 for off-peak tickets, offering another budget option for those after a movie fix.
So, Edinburgh has plenty of spots to catch a movie, even after the sad closure of Edinburgh Filhouse, offering locals and visitors alike solace on any rainy day.
