Anyone been to the cinema since reopened?

Incredibly silly question.....

Can you get snacks there or not due to COVID situation? !

At Vue cinemas you can still purchase drinks and snacks to eat. They aren’t selling any alcohol at the moment

Thanks @RainingPouringOldManSnoring .....can you only get pre packed things? (Sorry, my son wants a pick n mix and popcorn in a tub 😂

Sorry I’m not sure I only had a coffee! Maybe ring the cinema you are going to?

I could do that, I just feel like a dick asking!! Thanks x

Yes you can get snacks as normal
But then I've never heard of a cinema stopping snacks even they've open in these covid times

Last time I went our odeon had stopped the pick n mix, you could only buy bagged sweets. You could still get popcorn though. That was in October I think, not sure if it’s changed again now.

Going tomorrow.. Masks to be worn unless eating or drinking.. So not at all then!
And there is to be empty seats either side of your party..

Went to the odeon last night. You had to pre order snacks on the app or order on their screens when you were there and wait for your number to be called. Presumably to limit staff interaction. Didn't see any pick and mix, but I take my own snacks so didn't look too closely

Thanks everyone x

Which are good films at the moment?

Still hoping to see the latest Bond which was going to come out in April 2020!

We have tickets for Peter Rabbit 2!!

I went to Cineworld last night, there was no ice cream or pick a mix but you could get cold drinks, pop corn and packers of sweets. It has a Starbucks in the cinema and that was open.

I love the social distancing at the cinema these days! It's great not being sat beside a stranger during the movie. That's one rule I hope goes on for a little while longer.

Went to Cineworld on Wednesday and we got popcorn and pepsi from the pump. They had all the pre packaged chocolate and I saw people getting Nacho's.

Yes, we went to a small one and got fresh popcorn. Great having no-one spoil your view!!

You can order pick n mix online if it’s not available at the cinema; we used Pick Yo Mix recently.

ooh, I hadnt fancied going to a cinema until reading this thread.
A step too far even for me.
Perhaps I will give it a try, lockdowns permitting, in a month.

Peter Rabbit 2 🐰 🐰 tomorrow! We normally take our own snacks but under the circa I think the local flea pit deserves the popcorn premium...
