Clean, comfortable, great screen, everything that a modern cinema should be.

Visited at off-peak time so don’t know what busy periods would be like.

One star taken off because ticket collection machines were not working at time of arrival.

Good cinema. Just a pity where it is. Not bad prices, free parking and a choice of places (not in the cinema) to have food before hand. Be warned though - it can get very busy in the restaurants around the cinema so leave yourslef plenty of time or you could miss the show.

After reading reviews on this site I expected better. As with all cinemas food and drink overpriced. The place also seems to attract a lot of unsavoury characters in their tracksuits.

What a lovely place! :)  Really clean comfortable cinema!!

Slightly pricey, but most cinemas are these days! I would rather pay a bit more for this cinema as it is well kept, has friendly staff and offers a refreshing experience!

Located close to Dundonald Ice Bowl, there is a lot around for making a day of it, or an evening!

As “sgibson” has already said, a free car park out front is always a nice bonus!

There are now more additions to the complex, the first being Gaze (chinese, japanese food etc) and the second, being Blue Chicago Grill that follows the style of an American diner.

Disclaimer: my brother-in-law is assistant manager in the cinema, so I have not commented on quality of staff, but everything else is said without prejudice.

The Dundonald Omniplex is an excellent choice for anyone who cares about the quality of their cinema experience. It is the first all digital cinema in Ireland and the picture and sound quality is far and above any other cinema I have been too. With no film grain or scratches and 2k projection, the visual experience is beyond compare. Coupled with excellent digital surround and the ability to show Real 3D features, it is now my cinema of choice.

(Please note, one screen is still film based as some movies are still not delivered in digital form. On our visit, this was noted with signage at the box office)

The seats are very comfortable with good leg room (and the ability to raise the arm rests should you with to be more, eh, intimate with your companion). The foyer is clean and well appointed as are the toilets (which feature Dyson Airblades for extra geeky points).

Prices are in line with the competition (around £6 a ticket for peak hours, £4.50 for matinee showings), but this is tempered by free car parking on site. Concessions are as expensive as you are probably already used to.

Currently, there is one restaurant within the complex (Wolfie’s), but I have it on good authority that this will be expanding to include other options soon, making this a good location for an evening out.

I heartily recommend Dundonald Omniplex for at least one showing to see if the projection quality justifies any extra travel you may have to make from your regular haunt. For me, it is well worth the travel time from Bangor.
