Stella Theatre

Top choice in Dublin


A cinema night may not always be a glamorous event, but at the Stella Theatre it is. A narrow entrance opens up to sumptuous art deco glory with comfortable leather seats paired with tables and footstools. Leave extra time to order food that will be delivered during the film or book ahead to go to the cocktail club upstairs.
