DOORS OPEN

Doors open 45 minutes before the film start time. Coming to The Lantern is a magical experience and part of that experience is table service.  To ensure the film starts promptly please arrive at least 20 minutes in advance so our team have time to take, make and bring your order to your table.

If you arrive AFTER the advertised start time of the film, our bar and kitchen will have closed for orders. If we have time, we will do our very best to serve you, but we have to make sure the film starts in good time. We will ask you to queue in the bar area and we will come and take your order once everyone else has been served, as long as there is time to make your order before the film starts.

Please note that the bar is closed once the film starts and waiters only have time to serve everyone once, so please get everything you need when you order.


FAQs

Can we bring our own food and drinks?

No, food and drink sales are what keeps us afloat.

How to we order food & drink?

Every seat has its own table and if you head straight to your seats on arrival you can take a look at our extensive menu. A waiter will soon arrive to take your order which will then be delivered to your table. Make sure you order everything in one go though as our waiters have a very limited time to take and deliver everyone orders so can't come round to take orders more than once.

What films are you showing next month?

As soon as our films are finalised we will publish them on our website. If the dates you are interested in aren't there then we haven't confirmed our programme yet.
