This is obviously an Art Deco cinema conversion, though not as impressive as the former Wetherspoons’ Coronet on Holloway Road; however, by night it lights up like a Wurlitzer, a riot of neon lighting meaning that you can probably see it from the Moon.
This is a rather smart ‘spoons on split levels with a young, studenty crowd and not that full for a Friday night at nearly 8.00pm.
None of us had a drink, we doing a lap of the place before heading back into the city centre.

Real Ale Ray left this review about Ritz (JD Wetherspoon)
You can easily spot this JDW, from a good way off in the evening as it is so brightly lit, with red and blue neon lights all around the outside. The interior is all Art Deco and incorporates lots of different coloured timbers and mirrors. There is a front lounge area at street level with the majority of the pub accessible via a set of steps. The main bar area was along the back wall. Twelve hand pumps, the usual suspects doubled up, plus six guests Hobgoblin Ruby & Gold, Beermats Razzmattazz, Grainstore Cooking, Magpie Cherry Raven & Happily.

Old Boots left this review about Ritz (JD Wetherspoon)
As the name suggests an ex-cinema, notable for the remaining deco architecture. It looks a bit small for a cinema even with the bar curving round to the right hand side and a lower section at the front right. Fun is to be had trying to work out where the stalls and circle were. Usual ‘spoons decor and style, it’s six plus six pulls, the terrible trio on both sets and a reasonable selection and quality on the remainder, topped and tailed by the usual tap stuff. Unusually the toilets are on the ground floor.
