Good convenient Cineplex. Kept quite clean however toilets on ground floor needs to be refreshed and modernized very convenient to city centre being only a few minutes walk from there. Main screening venue for Cork Film Festival which is held every November.

Good cinema, great staff, always up to date movies on show. However, some may not enjoy the day old popcorn!

The cinema is fine. Nothing superb. Nothing really wrong with it but just nothing stands out in comparison to others.

Edit: Dropping the remaining 2 stars as a recent visit, my friends and I purchased large cokes, but they were so watered down, it was more like drinking Cola flavoured water - I have no intention of making a return visit.
Original:
Not a bad cinema experience at all. A little overpriced as I find most cinemas these days.
Screens 1 & 2 are the main screens and are twins, so don't worry if your movie is showing in 2 rather than 1.
Should you be unlucky enough to pick a film showing in any of the other screens upstairs, you will note that the screens are just tiny and the experience can be ruined by this. Naturally, the sound quality is also not up to the standard you would expect of the main screens. These just seem to have originally been an after thought and i now travel elsewhere if a movie is not showing in 1 or 2 despite the fact I live right by it.

There are many different cinemas in Cork City and County, I have been to nearly all of them. Some very impressive, some not so much. The Gate Cinema on North Main Street for me is the most iconic. Once you walk in the door you are greeted with a stench of real cinema popcorn and people going back and forth seeking to see the latest film at a very affordable price.
As a huge film fan, I feel at comfort the most when inside the Gate Cinema, a true film fan atmosphere is present. They have continued the tradition of having the big cardboard cutouts of the latest film characters and large posters hanging.
Each screen is beautiful in it's own way. Screen 1 & 2 are the biggest in cinema. Big wind screens and the rows of seats stretch back far. Screen 3 & 4 share a similar size with similar features. While not many enjoy small cinema screen, screen 5 & 6 are the small compact size that is needed to be drawn deep into great films. Comedies, thrillers, dramas, horrors, the genre of films available over time at the Gate Cinema is endless, just like the experiences a film fan can gain there.
Can't sing the establishment enough praise.
