Where to eat before or after a trip to the ODEON Cinema at Liverpool ONE

With a blockbuster lineup of brand new movie releases for summer 2022 and a host of tasty food around it, the ODEON in Liverpool ONE is the perfect place to unwind into a movie right in the heart of the city centre.

When trips to the park, walks along the waterfront and beer gardens go soggy, we turn to the big screen for our relaxation fix. ODEON Cinema and The Terrace at Liverpool ONE make for a winning combo with tasty, affordable dining options for all the family, less than a minutes walk from your cinema seat.

With world cuisine on offer alongside new blockbuster releases such as the new Top Gun, Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness, Jurassic World: Dominion, Elvis and the new Toy Story spin off Lightyear, why not plan a cinema trip and tuck into lunch, dinner or delicious snacks, all under one (very dry) roof.
