☕ Coffee tastes better when someone else makes it.
Science? No. Fact? Absolutely.

Grab your coffee, add a movie, throw in a treat (or two… we’re not judging) and settle into a comfy cinema seat.

Because sometimes you don’t need a big night out — you just need good coffee, good snacks and someone else doing the washing up. 🙌🍿

🧙‍♀️ After almost 30 years the wait is over! PRACTICAL MAGIC 2 is returning to screens and you can be one of the first to see it at our Ladies Night - Wednesday 9th September!

🔮 Starring Sandra Bullock, Nicole Kidman, Joey King Dianne Wiest

📖 Practical Magic 2 brings audiences back to the enchanting world of the Owens family after the original film became a cult favourite. Practical Magic starred Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman as sisters Sally and Gillian Owens descendants of a long line of witches cursed so that any man they fall in love with is doomed to die. This film built a devoted fanbase through television, streaming and word of mouth, becoming one of the most beloved witch-themed films ever made thanks to its unique blend of romance, fantasy, humour and female empowerment. The sequel reunites Bullock and Kidman, with both stars also serving as producers, and sees them return to the magical Owens family decades later as a new generation begins to discover the mysterious powers and dangers that run through their bloodline. With its mix of romance, witchcraft and sisterhood, Practical Magic 2 aims to recapture the charm that made the first film endure for a generation while introducing a new chapter in the spellbinding story of the Owens women.

🥂Tickets are $38 each and include a glass of wine & finger food. Arrive from 7pm with the movie starting at 8pm.
