Since I’m a big cinephile, I stumbled upon a one-of-a-kind immersive dining experience where you eat the food you see in a movie. Have you ever watched a film and found yourself salivating at the delicious dishes on screen? I know I have, especially when watching Ghibli movies—those meals look so amazing that you almost wish you could step into the screen. Well, what if I told you there’s an experience where you can enjoy the same food while watching the film? Fork n’ Film offers just that.
Fork n’ Film provides a unique dining experience where each meal is crafted to match the film being screened. From themed cocktails and mocktails to popcorn, every element of the menu is designed to elevate your cinematic experience.
Who created Fork n’ Film?
Founded by Nick Houston and Francesca Duncan, Fork n’ Film was inspired by a memorable scene from the 1996 film Matilda, where the main character eat a chocolate cake. This creative vision has since blossomed into a unique dining experience that combines the magic of movies with food.
To fully immerse yourself in the Fork n’ Film experience, it’s recommended to arrive one hour before the movie starts. There’s no strict dress code at Fork n’ Film,so, whether you choose to come in a costume related to the film or simply dress casually, you’ll be perfectly good.
Fork n’ Film menu and dietary options
The menu is a surprise, revealed only upon arrival, adding an extra layer of excitement to your visit. Fork n’ Film accommodates various dietary preferences, offering vegan and gluten-free options to ensure everyone has a great dining experience.
