Hollywood Plaza Cinema

A traditional seaside town cinema - charming, with 'wingback' armchairs in the foyer, but with cinema screen seats also, sadly, from a bygone era...

Cinema like it's 1923! Really cool decor, super friendly staff. My husband REALLY liked the intermission scene (badly pictured by me). I particularly liked the carpets. Our kid especially liked being let out into a secret passage. Our other kid thought we were all a bit strange and concentrated on the film - which she enjoyed. It's maybe not as lux as some cinemas but definitely has a lot of other things going for it. Don't go changing Hollywood Plaza, you are a doll!

Lovely traditional cinema with 1 screen, showing all the latest films 7 days a week. Seats can be booked online. Great picture and sound. Ticket prices reasonable, as are the sweets and drinks on offer from the snack bar. Now operating a one way system, where you leave by the exits at the side of the screen after the film. I love the charm of these traditional cinemas and would chose to watch films here rather than the big chains given the choice.

Wow I loved this place. It was like stepping back in time when I went through the doors. I was holidaying and thought I would go to the cinema. The latest James Bond film was on.I was shown a plan of the seating and asked where I would like to sit. It was really busy. I went up the steps and was shown to my seat.The seats were like they were back in the 1950's red velvet, and nowhere to put your drink. There was a stage with red curtains pulled, where you could see the screen behind them.A young man came selling sweets etc at the end of each row, from a wooden box. I loved it. The place filled up and the film began. There wasn't a sound from that audience.What a fabulous night. If you live local go to.it, if you visit Scarborough make it a must. Loved it!

Lovely little cinema, friendly staff and very helpful. It wasn't over crowded. Will definitely go again

Great experience, could do with some modernising but it’s all part of the charm. As watching the film goes the pictures and sound are both great quality. Only thing I would add (I never asked the staff about it so I’ll keep the review at 5 stars in case there was somthing they could have done) I went to see I film with my 4 year old who barely weighs enough to keep the seat down, I was having to hold it down most of the film. Overall great experience and will be returning

Old, dated, not very comfortable seats. You can't prebook tickets, which is very frustrating. Friendly enough staff and the main auditorium is beautiful.

Visited for afternoon film today. Excellent quality sound, brilliant picture quality and above all took me back to the experience of a cinema I remember 40 years ago. Would definitely recommend. Only visiting Scarborough for a few days but will return again.

Absolutely love that this cinema still exists and is run by such lovely people. For pure nostalgia alone, this place is worth checking out, I hope to return here year after year.The fact that I live over 3 hrs drive away would not bother me about coming to view a screening here, I love this place!!

Awful fusky cinema. Intermission after the ads? Dust everywhere. Water stains on the curtains. And I payed more then I would for an odeon to sit in a filthy room. And exited into a back alley?
