Dominion

Family-run cinema

18 Newbattle Terrace
Morningside
Edinburgh EH10 4RT
United Kingdom
+44 131 447 4771

This family-run cinema has a very cosy feel, entirely in keeping with the status of its owners. Enter the evocative 1930s art deco interior and choose between the four screens. Movies tend towards family flicks, but you will find the odd "18" cropping up on the programme. Light bites and refreshments are on sale in the cafe until the end of play.

This wonderful 850-seat auditorium plays host to a wide range of concerts, particularly jazz and blues. Musical luminaries such as Nina Simone, Marianne Faithful, Courtney Pine and David Helfgott have enjoyed the excellent acoustics here. The building also houses the Cafe Q, a self-service restaurant which hosts a changing monthly art exhibition. Call for a programme of upcoming events.
