On the Grid : The Labia Theatre

"Do the time warp and experience the relaxing and charismatic theatre on the corner of Orange Street. The best part about this iconic establishment is enjoying a movie like the Grand Budapest Hotel, with a paper bag of popcorn and glass of wine in hand. It’s perfect for date night or an outing with friends, everyone in Gardens loves The Labia and its formed part of our colourful community. A number of restaurants from Societi Bistro to Kauai have joined forces with the theatre by offering dinner specials to their customers!" - Yellow Door Collective

We had fun... The theatre got packed pretty quickly so it's safer to keep time. Loved the popcorn, sound quality etc... definitely worth it.

One of the coolest movie experiences I’ve had before. From the dining options to the nostalgic feeling of being here. Highly recommend watching a movie here and buying snacks. Love how they have different popcorn seasonings for their popcorn, and everything was priced great.

First-time visit, and I loved the nostalgic charm of Cinema 2 — clean, cozy, and refreshingly old-school with just 50 seats. The venue has real character, and the seats were surprisingly comfy. However, the audio experience was a letdown. The sound was overly sharp, with almost no midrange or bass presence. Gun scenes in The Accountant 2 were painfully piercing rather than immersive. My ears were ringing long after the credits, and I noticed older patrons covering their ears during louder moments. It seems the sound system isn’t properly EQ’d or acoustically treated, which makes modern action films hard to enjoy. I’d definitely return for the atmosphere, but until the sound is rebalanced, I’d avoid anything too loud or intense.

I really enjoyed myself by this theatre . One of the best theatre experiences of my life. I will definitely be doing this again. Perfect date night experience with all you need at close range. The scenery was beautiful and the people we nice. It was just my hotdog experience that wasn't so nice but that could just be me.

Really nice atmosphere. Decor is great. Snacks are easy to acquire. Feels like I went back in time to the 1980's.

Such a nice and authentic old movie venue. A mix between new and old movies. Great outdoor space to enjoy a drink or a coffee either before or after. If you love movies, well then this is the place to go in Cape Town. No modern venue can compete with this place. 2025-07-10. As nice as always....
