1 / 3Ritz Cinemas
📍 Randwick, NSW
Randwick beloved art deco cinema screens arthouse, foreign, and classic films alongside 35mm and 70mm format presentations. Ritz Junior runs weekend family sessions. Movie club membership unlocks discounted tickets and exclusive screenings.
Love the Ritz Cinema – such a great mix of old-school charm and comfort. The atmosphere is always cozy and welcoming, and the snacks are elite. The choc tops are chef’s kiss and the popcorn is perfectly fresh and salty (dangerously easy to finish the whole tub). It feels like a proper cinema experience, not just watching a movie. Always a treat coming here – wouldn’t go anywhere else.
🏆 Family Action Verdict
Best for families with older kids and teens who want genuine cinema culture — foreign films, classics, and rare film-format screenings rather than multiplex blockbusters. The intimate art deco rooms and outdoor bar make it a full evening. Younger children suit the dedicated Ritz Junior weekend sessions.

“One of my favourite places in Sydney honestly. Love the art deco vibe and the films being screened. I was a regular at classic matinees on Saturday arvos in 2025 and loved the 35 & 70mm screenings this year too.”
