Backyard Cinema

10/10 experience The enthusiasm of the crew is phenomenal. We went to Miami and the pre-show was great. Though I think the one of California might be better. I don't have regrets though. I loved the vibe, music was great as well before the movie started. Movie itself was great quality too. The sacks in which you sit are alright, obviously not as good as normal cinema seats. In my opinion: 10/10 Vibe 8/10 food and drinks ('cocktails' and popcorn) 6/10 seat I think choosing the right movie is the most important part (obviously). We went to Grease, which is just a great classic.

Finally went for the first time today with my partner, and I must say we were quite disappointed! No disrespect to the team involved, as we can definitely see the hard work that they put in - It’s impressive to see some of the things they have done, but for the price we paid, we don’t think it was worth it at all. The ‘train ride’ had some cool lighting, but the performance was quick and not that good. After the train we walked for a few seconds down a very cool corridor with mirrors and lights, and then the beautiful winter themed cinema. As it’s halloween season, we felt a lack of the decor to put us in the mood for the movie. I’ve seen some pictures of the Backyard Cinema, including the advertised ones and it was not what I expected. It let us down when we were there. I’m aware Backyard Cinema often changes their theme etc, and I also read some great reviews, I’ll be definitely willing to try it again in the future when it’s all changed. But this time the money wasn’t worth it.

Absolutely amazing. The decor is incredible. The staff was so enthusiastic and entertaining (maybe less the lady at the snack bar…). The screen wasn’t of amazing quality but it’s still great experience. Highly recommend. The kids loved it, and so did we! Ps: loved the story of how it started, prior to the movie. It was a nice touch!

A little over hyped, but the experience was nice for a Saturday evening. The “experience” room portion felt a bit rushed, but the staff were super committed to the silliness and fun. Food options were limited to chicken burgers and pizza, but there were vegetarian options at both offerings. Cocktails were standard price for London, and were on theme to the holidays. The facility was really warm and cozy , and the seating was comfy. Overall, a cute date night, would likely do another evening for a movie specific theme.

So much fun! Wasn't expecting the actors at the beginning but it was very magical! Really got us into the Christmas spirit! We saw love actually, could see clearly, seats were super comfy and drinks were reasonably priced for a London attraction (£23 for a bottle of wine) Would definitely go back, would be ace during the day for kids too if they like a movie day!

Had an amazing night with friends watching movie in the Miami Beach themed cinema. I think the whole experience was 10/10 and i loved the pre show experience, how they welcomed us with some fun stories and crew danced before the movie started. Bean bags and sand filled place was actually giving it a beach vibe. Amazing London cinema experience. Must try

We saw a movie at LA night's Positive; the pre show is fantastic, really great attention to detail and so much fun.. brilliant for photo opps! Preferred the pre show here to Miami beach. Food we had was delicious, salted caramel ice cream was absolutely phenomenal! Negative; we came early as suggested to enjoy food before. However we weren't aware you can't take food into the cinema. Due to our pizza taking ages to cook we then had a rushed time trying to eat it before the movie started. Can't understand why you couldn't take it in a box to enjoy through the movie? 🤷‍♀️ Ice cream may have been delicious but £12 for 2 small tubs I should think so! That's double what you pay in a west end theatre 😳 As said in many other reviews, one member of staff serving in the bar inside the cinema is not enough. Makes for very slow service and to add to that he wasn't particularly friendly. Probably fed up due to working alone and the huge queues.... Last moan, nobody is in the cinema to stop people on their phones etc. I had 4 teenagers next to me who scrolled their socials the whole time and it ruined the film for me. I'd assume they would be asked to put phones away in a different cinema.

What an experience, we had a blast. The staff Are exceptional , Vanessa is A great person, she went the extra mile to ensure we had a supersonic time!!! the music , atmosphere and the whole packaged experience was fantastic..its is definitely worth a visit. Definitely a excellent party idea .. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. We had amazing time every visit, We came 6 consecutive weekends. It was the best way to spend our weekends. We also had a fantastic time at L.A nights ..what an adventure, so realistic its brilliant 👏 well done guys!! Keep up the fantastic work... Staff are incredible and friendly.. The miami beach hotel staff were our favourite, the front house manner was brilliant , their humour was excellent, 5 stars for Gwendoline & Orto
