The Old Cinema

Listique’s Recommendation

As much as we love a good film, we were not disappointed to find a distinguished vintage products and antique store rather than the latest blockbusters inside of this former Edwardian cinema. The Old Cinema stock a wide range of striking, modernist products alongside more traditional antiques and intriguing international rarities. They have some fine Chinese and Indian finds, making a visit worthwhile for these alone. Recommended for any design fanatics looking for chic, vintage or retro products.

About The Old Cinema

When this former cinema was on the verge of demolition by a supermarket chain, a couple of local antique dealers obtained the freehold and converted it into an antique department store in 1979. 40 years later and it is still going strong, continuing to inspire visitors with its eccentric mix of furniture and accessories. The store’s stock is incredibly diverse, testament to their expert buyers who pour over products from across the world and select only the finest. The ever-changing and wide-ranging inventory is perfect for those looking to bring something a little different to their home. The Old Cinema’s selections have found their way onto the set of Hollywood movies, into exclusive hotels, fine restaurants and bakeries, trendy bars and boutiques as well as celebrity homes and castles. Despite their growing size and global appeal, The Old Cinema remains a family business.
