Cinema Akil

What a lovely experience, it was so nice to have experienced a film here it was such the ideal spot for movie lovers. They had popcorn nachos and so much other options. The theatre itself was sooooo nice, but the couches were a bit uncomfortable, the screen and sound system were great tho. Overall great experience.

We stopped by Cinema Akil just for a coffee. Mine came out cold at first, but the lady was really sweet and made me a fresh one. We also had a look at the movie theater, it was nice but had a bit of an off smell.

Amazing unique cinema for who wants different experience, especially film gurus Go there if you wanna travel in time. Good service, good food and drinks .. etc No complicated procedures and everything seems like you are visiting a friend’s home The only cons that we faced are : 1- The area is bad specially for parkings the district security didn’t allow us to park inside the district so we had to park too far outside in the main street and walk to it. 2- I don’t recommended to watch black and white or very old movies because the audio system is calibrated for modern movies with clean audio .. our experience with audio was loud , distorted & bass is exaggerated ( 12 angry men ) Definitely will come back.

Amazing place with a chance of watching old movies on the big screen. One small detail; the sofa's frame was hard, it wasn't a comfortable seat. But I can change seat! Another small thing; parking is a nightmare.

It was my first day in dubai and ended up in cinema Akil. Love the vibe and adored the place. It has a welcoming yet cozy vibe.

I visited this place forna coffee, I've never heard of this place until a friend of mine informed me that I should give it a try. It is a new idea as a cinema cafe, I didn't try the cinema, but I tried the coffee shop outside. If you decide to visit this place, you will like it for the below reasons: 1- The atmosphere is nice where they have photos of old singers and old photos. 2- The employees are nice and provide good service. 3- They have a small, calm outdoor seating, which you will love when the weather gets better. 4- The area is nice where it's full of restaurant and coffee shops. 5- The Karak and the coffee are good, but not the best. I can give it a 6/10. I will visit the place again to try the cinema experience.

My fav movie theater for the quality of the movies proposed compared to the commercials one you can find in the city. The deco is also very beautiful. Feels like a jump back in the time (in the past century). It’s a must do if you pass by Alserkal Avenue.

This place is such a vibe! If you haven't been and you like retro artsy places this one os for you. Project Chaiwala has great drinks and bites and is even better now with their collaboration with Lipton. You can try some unique tea blends that you won't be able to get anywhere else!
