Going to the cinema in New York

The cinema is the perfect place for a cold and rainy day in New York, though the experience of going to the movies might be slightly different than in the UK. At cinemas in New York, they have huge trays of popcorn and you can add liquid butter on top. There are drink machines where you can refill your drink as many times as you want, and you can get all kinds of hot snacks and other sweets as well.

Eric’s Tip: “For the full American experience, I always like to go to Dolby Cinema. You can sink into the theatre’s luxurious seats which are heated and automatically adjustable. They’re so comfortable, that you may well fall asleep if you’re still suffering from jet lag! You can check the cinema’s film schedule for Dolby Cinema or ask the staff. You can find this kind of cinema at the AMC Theatre on 42nd Street, near Times Square, among other locations.”
