Getting There
Going to Ritzy Cinema Brixton using public transport? Find the fastest route:
My favourite picture house in London (so far). It's set back from the corner so you can't miss its massive old-school marquee listing its name and show times. A little plaza area out front gives it the space away from the bustling streets it deserves - this is a diva, a queen of picture houses and you better make a wide berth and recognise, my friends.

The main cinema is beautiful, it's similar to the electric light cinema in Notting Hill (the best cinema in London). It's got a really nice bar too, I would advise booking your seats online on a Friday or Saturday night. You can also take alcohol in with you (although I'm on detox at the moment so I didn't)more
