The hotly anticipated Eltham cinema and restaurant development, made possible by the Royal Borough of Greenwich, was opened to the public on Thursday on 25 April 2019.

The opening of Vue cinema is the culmination of years of hard work following the Council’s ambitious regeneration of the High Street. 

As part of a Council's masterplan for the town centre, Eltham has benefited from a major £6.6m improvement scheme, primarily funded by Transport for London, which has made it more attractive for people walking and cycling. 

As part of this work pavements have been significantly widened, trees have been planted, benches have been installed and there are now cycle lanes and a 20mph speed limit.

This is Eltham’s time to shine as an entertainment destination, increasing the number of visitors and helping to reinvigorate other businesses in the area too.
