So why not just go to the regular cinema down the road? Because the De Lux is a treat. It’s not for a quick watch. It’s a four-hour event.
You can book tickets online and pick your exact seat. No more “Let’s sit in row H, but not too close to the pillar.” You get powered recliners with armrests that lift up. You can cuddle your date, or just spread out like a starfish.
They also have a Gallery section. It’s a smaller, private screen for special events. Think live opera, ballet, or a marathon of Nicolas Cage movies. Yes, that happens.

It costs more. A lot more. You will drop £20 on a ticket and another £20 on food. Your wallet will weep.
The waiters can be a bit slow during a busy film. You might ask for a refill during the climax of the action scene, and it arrives just as the end credits roll. It’s a gamble.
Also, the seats are so comfortable that you might never want to leave. They have to physically roll you out of the cinema. It’s a known risk.
