Alice Cinema

Positioned in the Old High Street Post Office, Alice is a boutique cinema and film specialists determined to whet the appetites of discriminating film-lovers. Best known for serving arthouse, foreign, festival, cult, classic and documentary films that are often passed over by the larger cinemas. Alice is made up of an exquisitely crafted 38 seat Egyptian theatre and its new luxurious 36 seat Wonderland themed cinema.

Alice is also home to one of the only DVD rental and disc-on-demand services in the country, boasting NZ’s largest DVD library of around 28,000 films/shows.

Their licenced bar offers local Waipara/ North Canterbury boutique wines, craft beer, zeffer cider, hummingbird coffee, little island ice cream, proper crisps, sweet as popcorn, karma cola sodas and organic juices as well as karma kombucha.
