Greenwich Picturehouse, on Greenwich High Road, has five screens and a café and bar, with The Crow’s Nest upstairs for coffee and drinks. Its programme mixes new releases with live opera screenings. Greenwich station (Southeastern, DLR and Thameslink) is about five minutes’ walk away, and the Cutty Sark, Greenwich Market and the park are all close by, so a film fits easily into a day in Greenwich.
