Monterey Cinemas

I made a silly mistake and booked for the wrong day, the lovely young lady behind the counter was extremely helpful and sorted it out in a flash. I don’t go to the movies often, but I’ll certainly be back. Friendly, helpful… great venue too.

I absolutely love old cinemas. The vibe here is quiet and chill. Grab you popcorn and drinks and enjoy the movies. My only concern is the seating, maybe a cushion for some extra padding and comfort.

Interesting experience as a first timer at Monterey. Ordered two coffees which were left at the end of the counter, no calling out the order or bringing them over (it wasn’t busy so easy to remember who we were). Went to find out where our coffees were after 10 minutes to find no one at the counter, even with a line forming for people wanting to buy tickets. Movie was supposed to start at 3.20pm, by 3.35, people in the cinema were very confused why nothing was playing on the screen yet. I went out to again, find no one at the counter and had to basically walk into their office to get some attention. Finally, after another 10 minutes, the movie started. Overall just an odd experience, the girls were young so maybe just inexperienced to customer service roles, may be in need of a retraining for some. Movie: Better Man @ 3.20pm 25/01/25

Went to see Nosferatu with friends and the place was immaculate. Staff are friendly and the vibe is calm which we loved. Id say the only drawback is the lack of air-conditioning in the cinema. Nosferatu was a 2 hour movie and it became unbearably hot and stuffy about half way through Please crank up the AC during movies , the little theatres heat up really quickly and can become a distraction from the movie..

Awesome cinema! Love the vintage look takes you back in time! Comfy chairs and great experience!

They have $10 movie night on every Monday and Tuesday which is such a great deal. The cinema isn’t the newest one but it will still great!

Always a great place to watch a movie, the bar and cafe are extra nice touches.
