Fabulous cinema! Two small screens (about 100 people) wide comfortable seats with lots of legroom. Small swivel tables on each seat and 'table service' offered for food and drink before the movie starts. Staff all very friendly and courteous and very professional and efficient. This cinema has been in the town for 108 years and it's no surprise why this has lasted so long. This should be a template for how all cinemas should be. Well done picture house!!

Oh my goodness how lucky are we in uckfield to have this amazing independent cinema- the film showings compete with the cinema big guns as well as showing golden oldies live opera and National theatre performances- the staff are exceptional always efficient helpful and smiley The lounge experience is a joy with reclining seats extra space and nibbles and drinks delivered to your seat if required I cannot praise the business enough - additionally the toilets are spotless and the soap dispensers always full and with hand lotion to boot

We discovered this lovely cinema in Uckfield by chance because the usual corporate cinemas were not showing the film we wanted to see , now we are coming back regularly, the atmosphere, is captured from a time gone by , it's comfortable, the sound is at the right level, the staff are friendly and helpful, and welcome you .

I recently booked a business lunch for three on Tuesday, and as always, it did not disappoint. Having dined here several times before, it’s become our go-to restaurant for work events, and it's easy to see why. The food is consistently incredible—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Each dish we ordered was a delight, showcasing the chef's talent and attention to detail. The staff are extremely welcoming and accommodating, making sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. Their exceptional service adds to the overall experience and makes every visit enjoyable. The restaurant itself has a beautiful, inviting atmosphere that fosters great conversation and collaboration. It’s the perfect setting for a productive business lunch or for an informal lunch with friends. I highly recommend the Picture House for anyone looking to impress clients or enjoy a delicious meal with colleagues or friends. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!

This is what you can expect from a vintage cinema. It's lovely inside. Prices for tickets and f&b are on the more expensive side but to be expected too from any cinema. The venue is small but I'd say that's actually a benefit as it makes finding your screen just that bit easier.

Historic Cinema in the heart of Uckfield. The fact they charge a £1 booking fee per ticket is outrageous, it's a like a coffee shop charging a £1 stirring fee. Also the cost is already way more than the Depot in Lewes. Having said that it's still a nice experience

A nice lunch spot on Uckfield High St with a bistro style menu - the restaurant was quiet on our Monday visit. I had the duck with fondant potato and vegetables and my friend's the vegetarian risotto and the fish cakes. We shared a couple of deserts. Everything we ate was fine with good portions and quality. The damage including a couple of drinks a reasonable £82 for 3. Service was friendly and relaxed.

Despite living in Uckfield for 5 years we’ve only just discovered the Picture House restaurant. We visited recently for a birthday meal and had such a great evening. The food was excellent with good portion sizes and exactly the sort of cuisine that I like; traditional British dishes, elevated with lovely sauces and flavours. Service was excellent - friendly and attentive but not intrusive. It has a really nice relaxed atmosphere whilst still feeling special enough to be a ‘destination’ for a night out with friends or family. It’ll definitely become our go-to place when we want to eat out now!

The staff were attentive, friendly and efficient. The restaurant has a warm feeling and interesting cinema posters. It was clean and had a pleasant, relaxed atmosphere. The menu is varied, with a good selection of daily specials - but there is not much choice for those with a plant-based diet. And you would think that the vegan burger, with vegan cheese might just come with a side salad? Not a bit of it, just a tin of chips and a small slither of pickled gherkin. As nice as the place is, I thought the menu could have been a little more inclusive. Fine for non-vegans and there are some vegetarian options.

Firstly, it would be helpful if you made it known that there is no table service. We eventually realised you had to go to the counter to order. Scrambled eggs on toast with bacon, pretty good, hard to get wrong though. Smashed avocado not so good, no mention of the fact that it is actually more of a spicy guacamole. Coffee was a bit wishy washy. Sorry not that impressed.

Excellent Sony 4k projection paired to a Dolby 7.1 surround system makes for a very very immersive film experience .. add in their special events from meal and film ticket deals to cream teas with film in one of the 3 separate screens on offer, and you have a wonderful 21st privately run cinema. Emails and a Facebook group can keep you up to date along with online booking, and here you are, a real 21st C success story.

My Wife and I being residents at Buxted thought we would try the Picture House restaurant for breakfast when they opened at 10 am on Feb 15 2024. We found our selves a table and looked at the menu, we decided to have a full breakfast with coffees. We sat for a little over fifteen minutes waiting to order. During this time there was a young female tinkering behind the bar and another female walking from one place to another. When the female standing behind the bar turned her head to see me looking in her direction she abruptly said you need to order at the bar, we don’t do table service. We felt very unwelcome due to the tone of her voice. We felt so embarrassed due to her rude approach, we both stood up and left the premises without a word. The prices are high enough to Warrant table service. We went to the Luxford restaurant instead. Service second to none, food excellent and prices very reasonable.

There are live music performances that I am told are very frequent and liven up the evening. The decoration, as it could not be otherwise, is set in the world of cinema. Everything is cozy.

Have been a resident of Uckfield for 30+ years and as such have been a regular patron of the Cinema. We were due to go to the Lounge tonight, but unfortunately my wife has contracted Covid today. I rang to see if my tickets could be deferred as it would be irresponsible to attend and was met with a friendly voice, who tried to help. Unfortunately she could not, as we, apparently need to give 24 hours notice to cancel. I did explain that I wasn't after a credit, just simply that I could use those tickets on another day. She put me through to the manager, who although obviously briefed by her colleague just abruptly asked How she could help. Then when a repeated what I said =, she simply just said its company policy and that's already been explained to you! So nothing can be done. I assume I will get a refund for the drinks I've ordered ? Or is that company policy to charge for something I haven't drunk as well as a seat I've not sat in? Very short sighted and a real shame

We only visited the restaurant, not the cinema, for coffee and cake mid morning on a Saturday. This is a unique cafe and restaurant with easy chairs and comfortable sofas, so nice atmosphere. No table service, you have to order at the bar although the order is bought to the table. Only 3 stars because there were only two cake choices and they were the last slices which was disappointing. They have special cinema and dinner tickets so we will try again - just get more cakes!
