Reviews
BFI Southbank was one of my favorite cinema of London. As a cinema and cultural hub, it offers so much more than just watching a film. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the welcoming atmosphere and the sense that this is a true home for film lovers.nThe cinema screens are comfortable and well-designed, with excellent sound and picture quality especially NFT1. What makes BFI Southbank special is the diversity of its programming. You can find everything from classic films and rare archival screenings to independent features and international cinema. It feels like a place where film history and modern creativity come together.nI also appreciated the educational and cultural aspects. The exhibitions and events provide a deeper understanding of cinema, and the staff are clearly passionate and knowledgeable. The BFI library and mediatheque are treasures for anyone who wants to explore film heritage more deeply.nOn top of that, the location on the South Bank is perfect—right by the river, surrounded by other cultural landmarks. The bar and café are great spots to relax before or after a film, and the overall experience feels both inspiring and enjoyable.nIn short, BFI Southbank is not just a cinema, but a cultural institution that celebrates film in all its forms. I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting London, whether you are a casual moviegoer or a serious cinephile.
Favourite place in London, hands down. I’ve been coming here for years for films, events, to have a quiet place to sit, and to use the bar / restaurant. Staff are always great, and haven’t had a bad experience at the BFI in general so far. The events are well run and the selection of guests for the Q&A and intros are always great. Very much an underrated gem.
Always a delight to visit this temple to cinema. Suitably spooky for Halloween was the only cinema showing a horror film for Halloween we hadn't seen.
Loved it! First time going to see a film here, the 25 and Under passing let's you get £4 tickets to almost any screening and it is such brilliant value for money. The screen and seating is like a proper classic cinema, and makes the experience so much better and comfier!. No modern popcorn machines etc but you can buy drinks at the bar and bring them in as well as bar snacks they do sell bags of popcorn with their crisps selection. Will 1000% be returning
Had an amazing experience watching the brilliant film Pillion, great place for film enthusiasts. Grab a drink and enjoy your date/films.
