There's a growing trend in London for pubs and bars to dabble in the world of film by transforming their venues into cinemas. Some of the city's best venues are now doing weekly or monthly movie nights to offer an alternative way of enjoying a cocktail or two. Blending basement vibes and swish seating with cult classics from independent filmmakers to Hollywood favourites, here's the best film screenings and movie nights in London.

Check out the best of the rest with cinema events and movie nights in London here.




The Clapham Grand

For some of the quirkiest film screenings around, be sure to check out The Clapham Grand - the iconic South London venue that's been around since the Victorian era. These guys host all kinds of boozy movie nights and bottomless brunches, showing iconic titles like High School Musical, Bridesmaids or Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging. Tickets start from as little as £10 per person, and you can expect sing-alongs, dance competitions, tasty snacks and brilliant afterparties at every single event.

Firmdale Hotels

Firmdale Hotels is a great shout if you're looking for film screenings in London. Check out films such as The Fabelmans, Puss In Boots, and Creed III while sipping on a complimentary drink. Or you can upgrade to a three-course meal and glass of fizz.

Karma is rolling into town for a new film night at the legendary Scala. Grab a seat on the last Sunday of every month for cult classics and iconic flicks. 

It all kicks off on 26th April with a special screening of Quadrophenia, the seminal British drama about identity fragmentation and class frustration. Get down early for a happy hour cocktail on the roof and stick around afterwards for a Q&A discussion with actor Mark Wingett (you'll have just watched him on screen playing Dave).

Film House: Easter Wonderland

@ Art'otel London Hoxton on Saturday 4th and Sunday 5th April 2026

Get well and truly into the Easter holiday spirit at art'otel London Hoxton. Its extra special Film House Experience sees two certified classics beamed onto the big screen - Willy Wonka and Peter Rabbit.

As you watch all the joy and japes unfold, you can tuck into popcorn and wet your whistle with a glass of fizz (or juice for the little ones). After the film, lunch is served. You'll tuck into a choice of roasts and finish up with an ice cream and Kinder egg dessert.
