Curzon Soho

Arthouse film fans have been known to go weak at the knees at the mention of the Soho Curzon; the perennially hip outpost is the coolest of Curzon's chain of luxury cinemas and has some of the best programming in London – a mix of arty new releases and documentaries, often introduced by the filmmakers themselves. Watching a film at the Curzon always feels special; it's beloved by film nerds without it being pretentious. The coffee in the buzzing café is great, the bar relaxed, and if you’re watching a British film, you’ll likely be seeing the finished product a stone’s throw from where it was edited in Soho. Perfect for whiling away a rainy afternoon.
