There was a Cinema in the Grosvenor Hotel complex ,It had a small bar in the foyer and that you could use even though you were not a filmgoer.

I think that was it, also it is still there ! who knows when the Grosvenor reopens we may get this prime location working again.

It had a nice coffee lounge and one of my favourite cinemas. Seemed very relaxed in those days.

The best Cinema Sheffield ever had, [in my opinion of course]

The building was an architectual jem! To be replaced by ?

there was a picture palace at manor top, it had a snooker hall under neath it that is now a co-op there was the rex at intake, which is now a super market which used to be marshals,, might still be but seems like the co-op buys up lots of shops so it might be one of those now
