Early Doors

Sit back and enjoy coffee, cake and the big screen at Showroom Cinema for just £8 with a special all-in-one ticket for over 55s.

Screenings are on Monday and Thursday mornings at 11am, with refreshments served in the Café Bar from 10am.

Monday screenings feature subtitles (where available) and start promptly following a short preview of upcoming films, whilst Thursday screenings will instead include an introduction to the film from our Programming Team.

Early Doors audiences can stay after the film and enjoy soup of the day for the special price of £3, a jacket potato with any two toppings for £5, or pasta dish of the day for £7. When purchasing tickets for Early Doors, you will receive a free stamp card which means every 9th Early Doors screening is free.
