My cousin and i went there and thought it would be a good cinema. But the seats are uncomfortable and i think i saw a cockroach. The screens are small and flimmering. The popcorn is the old garbage popcorn from hoyts that they throw away. I will never visit this place again. But I think Italians who want to save up some dollars because they don’t want to afford the great Hoyts will love it.

Yesterday I took a friend to the Cygnet Theatre to see The Chaperone. Such a beautiful theatre in every way excepting that it was freezing cold in there! If you are going there take my advice and take a blanket because you’ll need it.

Think older cinema, with great atmosphere for horror movies. Wouldn't see triple A title's as sound quality varied.

Although I'm not thrilled by the Grand Cinema affiliation and prices (they at least upgraded the seats) this theatre is by far my favourite.

The art deco style just oozes charm and conjures the memori of the golden Age of movies. The theatre itself is worth the visit just to take it in. A wonderful Alfred Hitchcock mural on the side is a seriously underated piece of street art in WA.

The limitations of a single screen and the sound might not be the best ever but any movie you want to see that is playing at the Cygnet is a must to go see. A Perth icon that truly deserves to be cherished.

On attempting to purchase tickets at the Cygnet Theatre back in October 2018 - I was met with an enthusiastic sales pitch about taking out a membership. The staff member really took his time explaining why membership would be beneficial. Sounded like a great deal on the day. Yesterday I presented my membership card for the first time since joining to be told my membership had expired. I queried this insisting I had not had the card long. Apparently, and this was not explained to me at the time I joined, the memberships run for a calendar year. Now, when there is a queue of ticket purchases behind you - there is not time to read fine print T&C's. This was a crucial fact - completely omitted. I had to fork out full price for my tickets yesterday. I felt conned, completely conned. Love the Cygnet and I love to support local business - but no more. Tell your customers upfront what the deal is - you were not short on all the other details at the time - including all the discounted snacks etc. Not much to ask to have staff explain that you are about to take a years membership that will expire in 3 months! It was sold to me as a years membership!

Beautiful building, really adds atmosphere to the whole movie experience, staff were amazing, felt like they were possibly family, made us feel welcome. We were very happy we chose Cygnet over a large multiplex, felt like more of an adventure/treat for the children and adults alike.

Lovely old setting for the pre-screening of Downton Abbey movie, seats worn and not very comfortable but otherwise pleasant.

Went to a special screening of Downton Abbey. Had a glass of champers and a lovely custard puff. The cinema is an art deco theatre and is very comfortable. For fans of Downton the movie was great.

A unique heritage cinema, Western Australian owned, $10 tickets with a cinema card, one of the most affordable in Perth

What a grand ole girl of a cinema

Friendly staff and much more enjoyable than going to Innaloo with the hordes of munchkins and plebs

But its time folks to upgrade those seats, they're shite and not comfy.yes i know 1st world problems but its time my backside is treated to a more softer experience, lol.

I love this place. Friendly staff, good prices, good food selection and bar options. Great movies. Go early to get a good seat. Definitely get a bean bag chair. You'll love it! My favourite night out.

The 'pre show' for Grand Cinemas gave some insight into the business' history which I was unaware of.

Stayed locally over Xmas 2019 and when I visited was pleasantly surprised. The seating was more comfortable than what I was expecting and the screen size and picture quality was great.
