About

Nestled in the heart of Lewes and the South Downs National Park, Depot is a contemporary independent three-screen cinema and stylish café-restaurant with gardens and terrace. Just next door to Lewes train station, Depot is easily accessible from Brighton, Glynde, Eastbourne, Seaford and even London.

It offers an innovative programme of mainstream, art house and independent films; world cinema, documentaries and classic films; along with special events, guest speakers and workshops. The restaurant has an ever-evolving seasonal menu, showcasing a variety of local ingredients – including a fantastic selection of local beers and ales.

With sustainability at its core, Depot strives to be an exemplar of sustainable business, both as a local venue and in the wider cinema industry, to achieve the lowest possible environmental impact. Depot was conceived and is operated along the principles of accessibility for all and environmental and social sustainability. The venue serves as a focal point for the community, and includes private hire facilities.

Depot is open all year round. In the summer months, the outdoor garden becomes a hive of activity.
