    Everyman Esher - Screen 1 in Esher

    I.LOVE.EVERYMAN…read more Now that there are two Everyman Cinemas in the area, I'm probably going to be much more of a film buff than I ever would be. Comfy couches, milkshakes to order and wait WHAT!? They sell a Washington wine?! F* Vue, I'm coming here the rest of my days. The Esher outfit has 4 screens, with Screen 1 being the biggest. It's a double decker with great sound and nice two person couch 'booths'. You can also order hot food in and bring alcohol into the cinema screen. Adults only, no crying babies and giggly teens? Heck. Yes. Sadly two things knock this place down to a 4* vs a 5*. Firstly, staff service here is very hit and miss. Very young staff meaning texting / giggling amongst each other can sometimes come above a waiting customer. Additionally, the screens are quite different in terms of comfy rating. Screen 2 has little footrests that mimic say a sofa/coffee table at home, whilst Screen 1 doesn't, which does make it lose just that little bit of comfiness for a long movie. Also, weirdly enough, end booths in Screen 1 don't have a table or a perch, meaning the person closest to the aisle has got to either put their drink on the ground (watch the spillage!) or hold it the entire time... Not ideal. However, it's still a much better (read: Expensive) experience, but I'd take this any day over a Vue (or the Vue in Staines) as it's closer, more intimate and caters to insolently intolerant people like me.

    IT'S A BIG HIT!!!!…read more If you want a night out this is a fab place to see a film. It feels like a treat and an enjoyable experience. Four screens, each screen room different but all have comfy couches, chairs and tables, the sound is excellent too. The cinema was spotless and a notch up in decoration, comfort, style and class from your usual Vue and Odeon cinemas. I found the staff helpful. As it was not busy I did not have to wait to be served. We ordered the vanilla and peanut butter milkshake, v nice. As the film started our pizzas were delivered to us. We ordered the margherita and special pizza. The chap taking the order wasn't sure of exactly what the special pizza was said it was ham and capers. I quizzed him a little more and he said Palma ham. Got to say although not large in size they did taste delish and I would not hesitate to have them again. It felt weird eating watching the movie but a great weird, I could get use to this. I was so impressed with the whole experience I became a member as I will be going back to watch more films at this fab place. It is more expensive but it's worth it. Oh yes I will xoxo

    Odeon Cinemas - Everything about it is as expected except screen 5 seems too small for an Cinema.

    This site on the Upper High Street in Epsom has had a varied history - it was home to a succession…read moreof cheap supermarkets until Odeon took it over to build the cinema. It's nice to have a cinema locally, which shows the latest movies even if it doesn't have the largest screens. However, the seats are nicely banked and it's quite comfortable. There's the usual concession stand as well as a small Ben & Jerrys outlet, which does ice cream and juices. As mentioned by Charlotte R, the main issue seems to be staffing. Sometimes, you have to buy your tickets at the concession stand. The staff ratio seems to be low and they struggle to keep the place clean. Also, boo to Odeon for their policy of charging more for tickets on Friday evening and the weekend.

    CONSISTENTLY INCOMPETENT…read more Whilst I found the prices of refreshments to be off the scale of shocking, I could live with that as you can choose to buy them or not. What was much worse was that every Odeon Epsom employee I interacted with was incompetent and rude. It's almost like they were all trained to be uniformly that way - a sort of anti-customer service pilot perhaps? The coffee bar staff took about three times longer to make a coffee than normal, then got the orders wrong as they had the person in front of us. They had three people standing behind one till at the refreshments whilst people queued up. The ticket collection lady was busy chatting with her friend and only called us back to see our tickets when we had got halfway up the stairs carrying my children. The lady who was showing people to seats in the screening area couldn't find our seats and I had to point out to her how the alphabet works. I'm glad there wasn't a fire!
