    Havnt come across one yet that doesnt?!? Hot food isnt allowed, like McD's or Burger Kings. We had to stop people when I used to work in a local cinema. Never stopped anyone taking in own sweets/juice.

    We don't make it really obvious, just take the sweets etc in a carrier bag or squish into my bag lol


    I have taken can's of beer etc. into to cinema and crisps and flapjacks.

    £3.50 from 5.30 until 8.30am so its quite good value if you are going to get food then cinema then poss out for a few hours and know your car is secure

    In the west end it was £10 per person! ouch. In peckham it's £5 perperson so for three people plus a;; the food you had would be about the same. Hey i thought this was a money saving forum, i always buy drinks at the supermarket the night before and put em in the fridge. Popcorn too - but not in fridge obviously! Save alot and i only pay for the film.

    My friends and I always take a small drink in with us, we reckon we are too old for the management to search. They do often ask my sons to turn out their pockets though to check for smuggled goods.

    As we all walk to the cinema we often take a tiny can of Pimms and lemonade, or a drink with a screw top and really make an evening of it.

    Have taken a can of Carlsberg special Brew into a cinema once. That was great fun.
