Showcase Cinema de Lux Coventry in Coventry

Prices could be a little more reasonable but the upgrades compared to 2014 are great.

The film itself was very good. However, the experience is very overpriced. I was very disappointed that the 3 bags of popcorn we got were stale like that had been sat around for hourse. I also got my daughter a Moana reusable cup. However, they won't give you a reusable straw as that only comes with the Paddington cups! Seems to defeat the purpose of offering that cup as the paper straws just melt and are useless for a child wanting to have a drink mid way through the film. I can't believe that watching a film for a family of three with buying drinks and popcorn can come to over £80.00 including the 10% discount you get through their insider app. If the popcorn was fresh and the promotional cups came with 3veythjng that were needed, it wouldn't have been so bad!

This is definitely the way to watch movies!!!

Hadn't been for over 10 years what a positive change to seats and facilities

I do not usually bother writing reviews on google as can usually not be bothered, but i had to write about our bad experience last night at the showcase cinema, as me as a disabled man, my wife and my son who has just turned 15. We were small mindedly turned away from watching venom last dance, as we did not have a birth certificate or a passport for my son. The staff were very rude and ruined a young boys birthday celebration with his parents we took a taxi to the cinema and had to arrange a baby sitter for my one year old daughter. we were left out in the cold for 2 hours and had to go to skydome odeon in the end which we had no issues whatsoever the staff treated us with respect there at the skydome so in the end we ended up having a good night showcase cinema i have used your cinema for years but you was disgusting the way you treated my familly last night and will not be coming back again

I love this cinema..if the film is boring the seats are so comfortable you can have a sleep

I recently visited this cinema and was really impressed with the overall experience. The ambience is fantastic—modern, clean, and welcoming. The seats are incredibly comfortable, with recliners available for every viewing spot, making it perfect for long movies. The only downside is that the shows tend to start 15-25 minutes later than the scheduled time, which can be a bit frustrating if you're on a tight schedule. Other than that, it's a great place to enjoy a film in comfort!

Disappointed with the size of the screen for Gladiator 2 (first few days of release); also the screen itself hard dark corners on one side. Furthermore, the manager is difficult and couldn’t manage a refund properly, eventually it worked.

Went to see Gladiator II in the Xplus screen and it was great! Seating set out in a way that means viewing is not impeded (even for short people like me) and the added bonus that the seating is a huge, comfy recliner. The food was fresh and good quality with fast service. Only downside was all the litter bins overflowing.

Paddington 3 - brilliant. Overpriced sugar - awful.

A large cinema on the outskirts of the city. Plenty of parking with a KFC, Taco Bell, Nandos and a pub within the vicinity. Loads of screens and choice. Every visit I have been greeted to the sight of a clean cinema and comfy chairs. Definitely worth obtaining the Insider card for a half price ticket on a Monday evening.

Comfy seats, good sound generally but quite alot of noise transmitted from the next door film, especially noticeable in the quiet bits. Freezing cold in there so wrap up warm. Such a shame the ticket guy was sooo unhelpful.

Wasn't very happy with the quality the popcorn I paid £8 for, it tasted awful, first time I've visited this cinema wont be ordering again on my next visit

Nice setting, comfy seats. Will visit again.

For my volunteer group, I organised a private screening, the first time I've ever done one. Veronika and her team were very friendly, prepared and accommodating for us. Lots of parking at the location. Cinema is very clean and tidy. A five star experience.

Very comfortable seating with modern clean cinemas. Badly let down by sound proofing from other screenings. It was like watching a film next to a night club

Like this cinema has nice comfy seats to watch the film and its great value for money .

Great film, but power seats that squeak & sound like fart noises going on most of the time + people who can't spend more than 30 minutes without looking at their phone. Also the coffee machine spends more time 'beoken' than working. Apart from that it was ok

The staff at the Costa are very welcoming and polite and easy to talk to :)

I never knew about Showcase Cinema until my friend told me about it yesterday. He took me there to watch a Tamil movie yesterday, and let me tell you frankly, there is no way I’m going to any other theatre. All the seats are reclining seats and all the food and drinks are very cheap. Great visuals and sound effects. Absolutely amazing 🤩

Very comfortable seats, good food...

My Go-to place for cinema in Coventry. The staff are lovely and friendly and happy to give their opinions on movies if asked. You can get beer there which pairs perfectly with nachos and Popcorn. All the seats are leather and recline and help to provide the perfect movie experience. 10/10 for me

Good access to cinema. Helpful staff. Good selection of films.

Came here yesterday with family to watch the new Joker film. Cinema is very spacious with plenty of food and drink selection. Tickets were very decently priced due to the deal they run on Mondays. Haven't been here in over a decade but would definitely visit again! Very good experience!

A place where you can relax and enjoy the latest movie 😌

Comfy seats but drinks etc expensive

Really good, but 35 minutes from advertised time to film starts is really really bad!

Great staff and excellent customer service

Seats are so comfy 2 watch a film.bar is good with reasonably priced drinks. Food overpriced but all inn all good place 2 go 4 family night out.

Great cinema, great staff, great location

Not been the showcase for a long time we booked tickets for the xplus cinema really enjoyed it will come again

Love this cinema for the seating as the most comfortable one we have found - just like being at home.

Clean cinema, comfy seats - at least in the different screens I've sat in, and the xlplus screen is fantastic.

Hadn't been there in years. What an improvement! The screen rooms were smaller but so much the better for it. Large leather comfy adjustable seats with soooo much leg room and cup holders.....what's not to like! (Maybe could add a compartment somewhere for popcorn to go 🤷‍♀️) Prices of tickets and snacks are typical for the cinema these days, but there is a Tescos nearby if you want to buy your own to sneak in! There's also a bar if you want a drink before your film. Toilets were clean, but need checking, as some didn't have toilet roll in the ladies. A few places to eat in around the cinema (Pizza hut, Nandos, Taco Bell), but they can get very busy and so it's sensible to book in advance, with the exception of KFC. Loads of free parking.

Good cinema. Better than odeon.

Amazing cinema. We are very lucky to have it. I love film and the cinema experince with suround sound and It's emersiveness. The level of luxury and comfort level is almost ridicuous. My only negative is there's not a lot done when people are using their phones or talking during the film. Please stop this.

Highlight is the lovely recliner seats for standard tickets.

Such a comfortable cinema, the reclining seats make it way better than the Vue, atmosphere is great, staff are attentive and the whole experience was fantastic.

Love this cinema and the electric recling seats. Our only disappointment is that hot dogs are never ready 😐

Love the seats and the immersive experience. Not having to queue for tickets is fab too. Convenient location for snacks before too.

Great cinema....love the reclining seats

Ushers are very helpful in making sure you are going to the right screen. The seats are very comfy

Great cinema and reasonable prices but food is too expensive, go to Tesco's first just over the road and save money

This is an amazing place for a cinema there is alot of different places you can go after watching a movie. Talking about movies I have been here alot but recently I watched Deadpool and wolverine. The experience was amazing as you go in you can get all your drinks and treats after that you walk up to a staff member and they scan your code Which then they tell you what screen you will be at and what seats. This cinema is amazing for wheelchair access and if friendly for people with disabilities. Over all the seats are comfy and the screens are big I would recommend this to everyone for sure. When I go next I will add my photos as I lost my other ones

Had to wait 10 mins as they were getting the place ready, not sure what that involved as there was a toffee still on my seat from the previous person which I got on my skirt.

Loved it, Reclining Seats were a plus. Nice Screen Size and sound Quality 👍

Really decent cinema, been a few times, great set up in terms of snacks and tickets too, and I've never seen a massive queue here.

Good seats, autism friendly showing as advertised.

A really good cinema that's cheaper than some other well known cinemas. Comfortable recliners.

Comfortable seats. But the lights along the aisles which remain on duirng the movie are too bright / dazzling. And 30mins of ads from the advertised start times is excessive!

A beautiful setting for viewing movies and the service was great too! Food was alright but honestly not the greatest, but that doesn’t stop the cleanliness and enjoyment of the theatre as a whole. Awesome place!

Kids enjoyed movie, more expensive than Vue

Great experience, clean halls and excellent service

Great cinema, disgusting, cold (they use already made) popcorn, you can taste old grease.

Highly recommended for movies, Xplus, food and drink choices, free parking and comfortable seats.

VIP seats were Not Recliner seats!

The best seats ever. So comfortable, so I fell asleep 😴 😄 Massive space for legs, so if anyone wants to walk there is no problem at all. Standard seats are much better than, for example VIP Vue seats. Tasty food, modern design, free car park.

I sat in a very plush reclining seat. I was the only person to watch this particular movie at this time.

Lovely cinema . Nice comfortable sitting chair

Great cinema. Very comfy seats. Big screens

I can confidently say that showcase cinema has topped the Odeon Luxe for me! The recliner seats are way comfier and it’s just a better vibe over all. Just wish the prices were cheaper or they did a package like limitless at odeon as I would visit more often.

Allways good time. Shame they serve wine in plastic cups....

Such a great cinema. Big screens and massively comfortable reclining seats.

Really helpful friendly staff, great service, clean cinemas and toilets

The cinema itself is very nice, but prices have gone through the roof. What was once a cheap afternoon out has become an expensive one - almost £6 for a soft drink is so scandalous that I nearly choked on it.

great staff and selection of films

The Super X Mega screen with the big seats and extra leg room is totes worth it. If you could order snacks and drinks that got delivered to you during the movie that would be double awesome. (maybe via an app, nudge nudge, you can have that one for free)

Comfortable seats, spacious cinema. Outside before entering the cinema it smells bad, but inside everything is ok.

lots of adds at the start of the film

nice normal cinema, just wished it was darker in the rooms as it can be quite distracting from the movie. lovely staff though !

All the screens provide really comfortable seats and great picture and sound. It's worth paying that little bit extra for the xplus screens though as they take it to the next level. The snacks and drinks are more expensive than you can get them in shops but this is how cinemas survive so please do pick something up on your way in.

Took my grandon to see If 2.35 showing really quiet ,clean and I only dosed I twice . Lovely film .

Nice quiet cinema, great seats.

Good cinema but the concessions are a rip off. No prices on them until you pay. 2 packs of haribo £7. And across the road at Tesco they are £1 each. Disgraceful. Lesson learnt.

Nice new reclining chairs. Had the cinema to ourselves, loved it!

Tried the XPlus screen and were not disappointed in the screen, the sound, and definitely not the seating - lots of legroom. Worth the extra cost for a film that you're looking forward to. The place itself is also clean and tidy. Can't wait to be back again!

The chairs are comfy and recline, which is a big plus. Prices are a fair bit higher than average. Using their loyalty card makes them more bearable, with discounts on Sundays, Mondays and Tuesdays. These are the only times I'd even consider coming, as otherwise the prices are too high to be acceptable. It's worth noting that the way the loyalty card system is implemented makes group bookings a massive faff. Seems to have the longest pre-film advertisements of any cinema I've ever been to, regularly reaching a full 30 minutes (I've counted). Tends to get a very good selection of films, including foreign films which I do appreciate. As usual, snacks are ludicrously over-priced and any sensible person would buy their own from a shop before they come here.

Really good time was had here. Wish there were less adverts before the film, but still enjoyed myself.

Great location, with nice food spots around. Very clean and comfortable seating, very nice place to watch great cinema.

I always enjoy coming to the Showcase Cinema, and staff are always polite, friendly, and professional.

Great facility with excellent staff. Had an issue with reservations but kindly sorted them. Really enjoyed seating and atmosphere.

Fantastic experience, great sound and vision especially love the Dolby plus screen and the reclining chairs are awesome

Very quite place no much buzzing around

The best cinema in coventry from comfy reclining seats to friendly staff and so many screens

Great place with friends and family staff very friendly and helpful. Get insider card colllect points.

Friendly helpful staff and comfortable recliner seating with plenty of room

Great place , good prices and friendly service

Comfy seats, easy parking, fair selection of films

Love the cinema experience its pricey but if you want to enjoy that one film that has to seen at the cinema id always choose Showcase. Could do with a deep clean and some chairs reupholstered but better than their rival Odeon in my opinion..

Always quick, professional service and the cinema rooms are always clean and tidy with great seats. The viewing experience is definitely worth the extra money it costs compared to other cinemas around. Plus if you download the app, you can save money on certain days or gain loyalty points to help towards snacks, tickets etc. I have been multiple times and would always come back.

The sound is good it can be louder, but the image ... I think they use lower image brightness like 80% Xplus specially...

The seats... the screen... the cinema 👏👏

Always a great cinema - very comfy seating, lots of space

It was a wonderful experience and good customer service

Superb seating but so expensive it's ridiculous. Nearly £60 for 3 adults and 2 kids. Cinema had about 20 people in in for Kung fu panda 4. Pick n Mix cost £25 5 drinks were nearly the same. So best part of £120 to watch a 90 min film. Rip off

Great place to relax and enjoy films.

Love this cinema and the seats =D

I love this cinema it is local and the environment is pleasant and clean. I just hope they don't close it down like all the shops in the area!

We have been here many times as a family watching great movies however the last time we went the seats were dirty which made the experience uncomfortable. Let me know when you hire a cleaner, I might come back

Nice comfy chairs, pretty clean, but prices are a bit too exaggerated for the current crisis we live in. Otherwise good!
