Sunset Cinemas in August 2008

Operating by 1978 the New Swedish Cinema Club, a twin screen adult cinema in the heart of Soho, screening uncensored films. The screens were located on the ground floor and first floor levels. It was later re-named Sunset Cinemas.

In recent years since the emergence of Soho as London’s ‘Gay Village’ the basement was converted into the Rainbow Gay Cinema, the two original screens continued to operate as the Sunset Cinemas screening ‘straight’ adult films.

Due to problems with the Cinematograph Licence, the cinemas were closed down in early-August 2008. In early-2014 it was converted into a Mexican restaurant
