Cinema in Tauranga

“The vmax cinema is epic! The normal screens are very good as well, all have really comfy seats and the selection of snacks, drinks, popcorn etc is very good. Vmax tickets are a bit pricey but well worth the money for the experience. They are also licensed so you can have a beer or a wine with the movie.”

“The best movie theatre in NZ Big seats and spacious. Also, clean A little bit of extra pay, you get the lazy boy seats. So so recommend”

“Very tidy cinema, well priced. Great seats. Only down fall is the exit sign is to bright. Especially when movies playing and your in the seats that in line or under the sign.”

“The best cinema in town. This is so cute, vintage and a dream to visit an old time community cinema with so much soul. Love it!!!!”

“Small and cosy, great for having a quiet movie night.”

“I was the only person in a massive two-story theater at 4 p.m. and had the time of my life. The screen was HUGE. Best seat for me and definitely my best movie experience yet. Unfortunately, they don't sell sweet popcorn. I would still go back in a heartbeat.”

“Amazing show with alot of talent. The best one I've been to in a long time.”

“Two of us took our three granddaughters to Frozen the musical, they loved it! Great cast fantastic singing and dancing. Looks like this theatre really look after their teenage actors,”

“Candlelight concert. July 2025. Great venue, looked magical! Friendly helpful staff and the string quartet were amazing, as always.”

“Been here many times. Parking can be a little hard to find when town is open, so arrive early to give yourself time to find a park etc. This visit was for the Pink Floyd experience Fantastic night. Great set up. Clean facilities.”

“Very nice boutique lil theater, Even had cuppa teas n coffee available, with carrot cake too, Handy location in Tauranga city off Cameron Rd”

“Parking terrible but stage and setting great”

“So nice to have a facility in a small town being used for such excellent music. Thoroughly enjoyed myself. Thank you”

“So quaint, I love coming here. They don’t sell popcorn. I understand it’s messy, but very worth it. I sometimes come to the theatre just for the popcorn.”

“Came from Tauranga to see Phantom of the Opera 28th March. What an absolutely fantastic show you all put on. Very impressed with all Cast and the crew work. Such a hard show carried out by awesomely talented people. Everyone should be proud of themselves. I want to come back and see it again. Rotorua Musical Theatre BRILLIANT!!”

“Lovely, intimate little community theatre with great atmosphere, a quality selection of plays and exceptional performances. If you enjoy live theatre, you'll love Detour!”

“Fantastic shows,great performance and wine snacks available . All volunteers and well supported by locals”

“Nice and relaxing. Good seats. Good place with all the snacks and drinks available to buy to enjoy the movie”

“Great place to shop or grab coffee and a bite to eat at one of the many cafes or restaurants. Gusto has the best Eggs Benedict around and Luca is highly recommended for coffee, ask for Dimi, she'll sort all your coffee needs.”

“The place itself is fantastic! A cute little village vibe to wander and engage with local artists and businesses. Unfortunately we went to the cafe and I chose the salmon quiche- which turned out to be a bacon quiche. There was no salmon in the quiche at all, just the one piece on the top. So our dogs enjoyed a treat, while I got a bad taste in my mouth about the Cafe there.”

“Great shopping centre, undercover parking always has a spare park. Bathrooms kept very clean. Spacious and airy. Good variety of eating places”

“We wanted to say a massive thank you to Nyree in the furniture department for her exceptional service. When we called at 9:30am about a warranty claim, she went above and beyond by immediately contacting the supplier and arranging a direct replacement. By 10:45am - just over an hour later - our new item was ready for pickup at Tauranga Farmers. Her efficiency and dedication to resolving our issue so quickly was truly outstanding. Thank you Daniel Prince”

“Every time I have visited this location, the staff are super helpful. And that is coming from a techy electrical engineer/sales engineer who knows a lot about this kind of stuff and usually wants to be left to shop alone, but the staff are not overly pushy and genuinely helpful. Also coming from someone who worked computer/electronic retail for almost 15 years in the states. So when I say this store is doing the right thing the right way, that comes from a lot of experience. Most recently I stopped in to purchase a simple item, just a stove cook top for some rural cooking on a holiday vacation, I even knew what I wanted of course. There were none in stock for the one I truly wanted, it happens, and I didn't have time to go or choose somewhere else, so when the woman approached me about needing any help, and confirmed they were out of stock with what I wanted initially. I felt good that I could pivot to something similar, and in the end a bit closer to what I needed anyway. Overall, she helped me settle on something else, confirmed pricing and brought out the item from the back to purchase at the front desk. I wasn't harped about extended warranties, etc which I don't personally buy with these commodity items, and usually self repair if I even deem it worth it or necessary. Purchased easy enough and went on with my packing for the trip that day. Would definitely come back. I haven't visited the Mount Maunganui location lately, but as far as this experience goes, it was above the quality of the times I have visited the Mount location. Not by a lot, just enough to be noticeable. Though maybe that location has improved as well. Whatever you are doing, keep up the great work.”

“Today I experienced fantastic customer service from Jason. He went above and beyond to help me with my enquiry and was helpful, patient and knowledgeable. Highly recommended.”

“I want to thank Kelsey and Louise for being so kind and thoughtful to me. I called this store from Victoria Harbour, Ontario, Canada this evening as I was trying to order some items for our daughter who lives in Tauranga and was having difficulty ordering online. These women are wonderful and I can’t begin to thank them for all their help. I know our daughter will be thrilled with her gifts and my husband and I definitely have to drop by this store when we next get to visit NZ. Janice S.”

“Only complaint is to get to the Technical department, you have to walk Miles through the Furniture department. If you have restricted mobility, don't bother.”

“Great service from Summit at the Mt Maunganui store. He was just closing up the shop and saw us interested and he let us in. We brought a bed, came with a free headboard and bean bag and super quick delivery. Thanks so much. Definitely recommend big save for beds.”

“Jiggy was a life saver. We came to the shop on a Monday. Bought two beds and Jiggy said the delivery can take a week, but he can see if he can arrange for the Tuesday if possible. Jiggy and the delivery guys came through. Thank you for the great service”
