About Reading Biscuit Factory

We are a three-screen cinema, bar, coffee shop, live performance space, and community hub situated at the heart of Reading’s town center. We aim to offer a fantastic, welcoming venue and create a setting where everyone can relax, work, meet, and create – all under one roof.

We are proud to present an exciting and varied film programme, from the newest blockbusters to the latest independent films, as well as a host of special one-off screenings and events. Pop in and work from our beautiful cafe and bar space, or simply relax and enjoy a movie with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine!


As a venue for the people of Reading, we want our audience and community to shape us and what we do. If you have an idea or suggestion, please get in touch. We are open to anything, from art exhibitions to improv comedy, and live cabaret music, we are more than happy to have a chat about your ideas.

If you are looking for a unique and versatile space for any event we have several spaces available for hire, including our cinema screens. Suitable for classes and workshops, meetings, rehearsals, performances, and presentations, or celebrating those special occasions. Whatever the event, we would love to help.
