The Everyman Cinema - Hampstead
The Everyman Cinema in Hampstead, London, opened as a cinema on 26 December 1933. Prior to this: the cinema was known as the Hampstead Drill Hall and Assembly Rooms, which opened in the 1880s and was then converted into the Everyman Theatre, which opened in 1920. Noel Coward's The Vortex was first performed here.
The Everyman Cinema shows a mix of the latest blockbuster and alternative arthouse releases. There are refreshments at reasonable prices including a bar, and uniquely there is a floor service so you can order food and drink from your seat. Sofas on the balcony of the main screen and comfy seating add up to an indulgent cinema outing.
The Everyman's philosophy; it’s not just about the movie it’s about the whole experience

(For screening lounges, read 'screens'. Pretentious? Moi!)
Again - like the Electric Cinema in Notting Hill, this is not a budget cinema option. Quality costs and expect a mark up. As always though, you get what you pay for and if you expect more and are prepared to dig deeper, it's hard to return to the traditional cinema experience. About the same price as West End cinemas - so smaller, but the quality delivered is higher. Weekday matineés are a little cheaper.
