Great option for wheelchair spaces
Visit date:
This review is especially helpful for those who have or use the following: Wheelchair, Powerchair, Mobility Scooter
Overview
I really enjoy sitting in the middle or the back of the cinema in my wheelchair. I also like that I can bring a friend as well as a PA to sit in the two seats allocated to some wheelchair spaces. There’s a ramp between the two levels. Doors are heavy to open so I need help getting in and out.
Transport & Parking
There are a few blue badge bays near the entrance (50 metres?). These are suitable for a WAV (wheelchair accessible vehicle). There are other car parks, bus and train routes nearby but not sure how close.
Access
The front door has automatic doors which is great. There are snack places and a costa by the entrance. You can buy tickets online, from machines of from the snack bar. There is a good ramp near the stairs. It is mostly carpet so could be more difficult for manual chair users. The doors to the cinemas are heavy and difficult on the way in as two sets of pull doors. Easier on the way out.
Toilets
The accessible loo is accessed by a radar key. It’s small and I wouldn’t get a carer in as well as my powerchair. Lots of background music in the toilet which might be difficult for some people.
Staff
Staff are generally very pleasant and helpful.
