What we do
Showroom Cinema & Cafe Bar

We are one of the biggest independent cinemas in the UK committed to providing a diverse range of films and related activity. We show new and archive films from around the globe, the majority of which are not screened elsewhere in Sheffield or the region. We also have an extensive education programme for school groups, students and adult learners.
The Showroom Cafe Bar offers two contrasting spaces for eating, drinking and a broad range of events. The Bar is one of Sheffield's most popular daytime and evening venues, offering late night opening until midnight on Thursdays and 1am on Friday & Saturdays, with live DJs, Sunday lunchtime jazz and other exciting events.
