Went here for a private cinema club last week and saw Planes, Trains & Automobiles.
I must say, I thoroughly enjoyed the experience of the night, although there were a few niggles. This review would be more of a 3.5 if there were such thing.
It's a great little cinema - maybe seats 30 or so. Super comfortable seats, and little tables that pull out so you really feel like you're in luxury.
It seems to be sponsored by Pellegrino as you get a free one when you go in and a box of popcorn.
There are a few options for payment - you can either pay €10 for the movie, popcorn and drink, €15 for all that plus a cocktail, or €29 for all that plus a two course meal in their restaurant.
We went for option two - the movie plus cocktail, and this is where the points would be docked. To clarify, the cocktail in question isn't actually a cocktail. It's a gin or vodka based mix with Pellegrino. There are two options I believe, and then you pick which flavour Pellegrino you want it mixed with. It's poured into a giant cocktail glass, but a cocktail it ain't. For a fiver, it's grand, there's loads of booze in it, so if you weren't fussy, that's fine, but I am a bit picky about something being billed a cocktail when in fact it isn't. There was also a slight issue with communication between reception and the bar, but that was sorted out pretty quickly. The staff were really extremely friendly and very keen to make sure any issues were sorted as quick as possible, so I wouldn't like to blame them too much.
All in all, it was a lovely night and I would recommend it.
I believe it happens every Thursday, but is booked out for the rest of the year, with a new schedule being put together currently for 2014.
