Eatflix Cinema

In Newcastle upon Tyne, brothers Joe and Ollie Brack introduced ‘Eatflix’ to their bar, Alfie’s, on the outskirts of the city centre, in September 2024 with a screening of “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory”, starring Gene Wilder. Described as a “5D experience where you not only listen and watch your favourite films, but eat along to them”, patrons ate the food within the film as it appeared on the screen, and also enjoyed other food and drink which tied in with lines from the script.

These events proved so popular that the brothers opened a full-time Eatflix Cinema in the city’s Heaton suburb, taking over the former Grosvenor Dance Centre.

Eatflix Cinema is designed to be “old school Hollywood at its best”, with “decadent” red and gold décor, glistening chandeliers and an array of movie posters in the luxuriously appointed auditorium.

The Eatflix Cinema opened on Monday 10th February 2025 with the family comedy “Ratatouille”.

Adult single seats are £75, while two-seater settees cost £165. Interestingly, it is made clear that patrons are primarily purchasing the food and drink, and paying just £1 for watching the film.
