great experience on Monday night at Henley. staff gave excellent customer service & promoted/knowledgeable about membership. will be returning

We had the most amazing time at Clapham Picturehouse on Sat 25/06/22. The service there was second to none. Wonderful staff, beautiful building and ... very clean toilets. We used the place for the Premiere of our new film production, ODILE the Pilot. We had over 100 guests and they all adored the place. We hired the downstairs bar for our after-party, and the staff were always happily at hand to help with anything we needed. We will definitely use them again and absolutely recommend the place to all our contacts in need of an exclusive and affordable place for their film screening/premieres. Special thanks to Deputy General Manager, Dan Hawkins, for welcoming us with open arms and taking care of everything for us, which created the condition for a smooth and successful event. Thank you again Dan, and Clapham Picturehouse, and see you again, soon! Best, Elsie at May Filmworks Ltd.

Booked cinema to watch Lightyear for me and my Mr. as we've had a stressful time recently and wanted a laugh. I was notified that I had come into contact with someone who had covid, so needed to self test. Was negative, but I had been feeling ill anyway and had symptoms so tried to cancel for a refund. As it was an hour and a half before screening I was told I could not refund. Obviously I still want to watch the film, so I enquired if we could rebook via email. They refused to either refund or rebook, when I'm clearly unwell. Picturehouse do not care about their customers and come across like money-grabbers. This is the first and last time you get a penny of my money and I will encourage others to stay clear also.

Central branch has gone down a bit recently. Hope they can sort it out soon..

For personal reasons, I tried to return tickets, the website states that I can return within two hours before the start of the event, in fact it is possible to return only 48 hours before the start.

Absolutely appalled by the lack of Customer Service. I made specific phone calls to the Accessibility Team regarding AD facilities and was advised how it worked and where I could access the facilities for the film I wanted to see, so I made a booking. When I turned up to watch the film the AD facility didn't work. Although the cinema staff were friendly and helpful they were not able to resolve the issue or explain why it wasn't working. I called the Accessibility Team this morning to report the matter and was told that I had to send an email. Unhappy that I should have to waste further time writing an email I called Customer Service as it says on the website that you can contact them to make a complaint. Surprise, surprise they told me that I had to send an email. When I said that I didn't want to have to write a complaint I was advised that I didn't need to write - just send an email! Is this some kind of joke? Why pay for Customer service staff to answer the phone if all they are going to tell you is to send an email!

Picture house Uckfield cinema… superb restaurant and cinema. Small and welcoming, been going there for years until Covid. Now going back and all good.

I am being spammed by Picturehouse. I have tried to unsubscribe on several occasions but without success. I go through the process but it always comes back incorrectly claiming I have multiple accounts under a single email address which, of course, is not possible under a well written web site.
They are driving me bananas.

I'd give the front of house staff 4-5 stars, but membership and tickets are expensive compared to other cinemas locally, also their customer services run limited hours or simply don't answer the phone. I've been a member for quite a few years, but probably won't renew next year. Their prices are getting a little ahead of themselves for outside London.

Great cinemas and a nice comfortable place to go see a film. Expensive and no fancy screens, however its always quiet and so inviting its like being in your own living room.

Bromley Picturehouse is a beautifully restored 1930's art deco 6 screen cinema. A lovely spacious feel, pleasant, helpful and polite staff. Very clean generally and spotless toilets. An airy, stylish large cafe at the back is underused and very quiet. They now are offering toasties etc in addition to main meals. We eat there whenever we go, even if not seeing a film. Having this lovely amenity in Bromley has been especially important to me as I continue to shield due to medical treatment. No crowds and a clean spacious environment. Interesting films and niche attractions such as a Japanese film series at present. Definitely not a cinema for those who want to eat, slurp and rustle all through a film while lying stretched out on a recliner. Can't understand why it is currently underused. So pleased it's my local cinema.

On the 1 November I fell down a few steps due to no strip lights. I thought at the back of the cinema it was level and was unaware there was a small stair. Next minute I was on my back and felt a twinge in my foot and it swelled up that night and was very uncomfortable next day. Nothing has been broken but it could have been much worse due to my age.

I complained to Picturehouse and received this reply.

We can confirm that the step lights at the back of the screen were off due to a technical fault which has since been identified and rectified. Our sincerest apologies from the cinema team for not noticing this sooner, and we thank you for bringing this to our attention, and are glad that you were not too seriously hurt.

I am a Member and have supported them since they opened and as a goodwill gesture they have only offered me 1 free ticket and a short extension to my Membership. A lot of my friends want me to take legal action as their offer is insulting. I have taken legal advice and I am entitled to compensation but I appreciate cinemas have suffered in the pandemic and this course of action is the last resort.

It saddens me as Picturehouse in Bromley has a lot of potential but they don't seem to promote it or appreciate their Members

What a pleasant change to watch a film where half the audience didnt think they were in a restauranium. No 2 foot long hot dogs, no 2 kilo popcorn and no 2 litres of Pepsi
Just a film to watch without the munching and slurping.
Excellent I'll be back

The old Fulham road Cineworld was a bit scruffy and outdated, so Picturehouse have a done a good job refurbishing the theatre.

Staff are disorganised and need retraining in customer service.
After the movie, our group ordered some food in the upstairs bar and sat down in one of the big, comfortable booths. Half an hour later our food hadn't arrived. We were all having some good laughs together so hadn't noticed how much time had passed. One of my friends went to the bar again to enquire after our order. About 15 minutes later a waiter arrived with out cutlery, and little while after that, brought over our meals.
No apology or explanation was given for the delay. Complete failure in common courtesy never mind providing a good service experience.

We took it in stride and didn't kick up a fuss as we all live round the corner and didn't have any where to be for the rest of the day. That said, I expect most people would be pretty upset.

The Gate Picturehouse in Notting Hill is a beautiful old cinema and deserves to be valued. Unfortunately, Picturehouse run it.
They choose bad movies, as it turns out, but that is not my concern here.
Picturehouse are a Tesco Clubcard 'partner'. That means that when you collect points, you can use them to go to the cinema. Great, right? Well, not so great. A very expensive mistake as it turned out.
I did manage to pay for my tickets using clubcard vouchers online. I had saved a lot over years and decided to have a little freebie treat with my family.
Unfortunately I was delayed, so my family members tried to get snacks using the vouchers i gave them- £51 worth. Picturehouse told them it was worth one popcorn. Unaware of how it worked they accepted this one popcorn. Then, on the phone on route, I told them it was worth much more than one popcorn, and they tried to use it again. Of course it was void because that is how they work- it must be used in one transaction. They had to pay for the drinks and snacks because they were already in glasses/cartons. It came to £46.
I was furious, but the movie had started and I could do nothing. I tried to take it up with Tesco Clubcard next day. Tesco Clubcard informed me that we had used the voucher in one transaction, so it was void, end of story.
They acted like this was our mistake. It was deliberate on the part of the Gate staff who clearly did not want to part with snacks for any sort of discount.
They deliberately did not give us itemised receipts which Tesco also used against us somehow.
I am disguted with them, and with Tesco for backing them up on it.
I won't go back. I am also changing where I shop. My £170 per week family shop no longer goes to Tesco.

A lovely little cinema very friendly staff a nice clean refurbishment very decently priced very very clean superb a little gem of a place we must keep in Cannock
Well done to all the staff visited tonight wonderful evening
Will definitely visit again 👍👍

terrible experience trying to order tickets for a wolf alice film. code didn’t work.

My wife & I recently took our daughter (age 17) to the Picture House Bromley to see a film rated 15. For some unfathomable reason, the person checking our tickets demanded that my daughter show proof of age – she helpfully added “have you got your passport?”. Well – duh – No we hadn’t brought our passports. We thought we were in England, but it seems it’s all a bit “State Security” at the Picture House. Give some people a little power and they feel they have to wield it. We asked to see the manager and, of course, he would only support his colleague: effectively “Very sorry but get lost”. I could understand their stance if my daughter looked a young 17 but she doesn’t. Any “normal” person looking at her would say of course she’s over 15 … but not at the Picture House. It was extremely embarrassing for us to be put in this position – effectively my wife and I being called liars in front of my daughter. I’m not quite sure how this would have ended since I was not in a mood to give in … but fortunately, after about 5 minutes of searching though pictures on our phones, we found an old photo of my daughter’s passport which confirmed her age. The morals of the story: when you want to go to this cinema the border guards may need to see your passport so make sure you carry it at all times, that common sense and reasonableness are in short supply so don’t rely on them and - well, given the circumstances with the cinema closing this is maybe a moot point but: I will never be going back!

Fulham road renovation was a ‘cut and paste’ job of fake Art Deco brass decoration.
A new layout of food area... same cafe and ‘private members’ areas... dingy and as before.
Bathrooms no different.
Seats different but I had to put my feet on seat in front to keep my recline.
ALL FOR DOUBLE THE PRICE TICKETS!!!
It was better before when nothing different and tickets were £9

I don’t normally write reviews but I was gobsmacked at this joke of a renovation.
