I like a good film and I love good food. Putting the two together is something I am not totally sure on. I’ll be honest – at the flicks I am happy with some popcorn or if I am really treating myself, I might splash out on some tacos.

It seems that this level of food is not enough for some cinema goers. If you are looking for the best luxury cinema in London, you might be interested in ‘The Lounge’ at The Odeon within Whiteleys.

Fine dining has come to film.

Opening to the public on January 13th, Odeon have revealed the seat-side menu available to guests at “The Lounge”
