About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for creative cocktails
  • Great for happy hour
Bernie’s Kitchen | Bar| Cinema is a boutique theatre experience in downtown Kelowna, BC. Our screen plays a mix of retro and new(ish)-release films, and yes, you can enjoy them with some top-notch food and drink!

We’re excited to bring the movies back to Bernard Ave., but we also love a great meal. The first floor and mezzanine at Bernie’s are where you’ll find artisan cocktails, one-of-a-kind wines, local craft beer, and truly tasty dishes. Our dinner menu is a uniquely Justin Best creation, with influences from all over the Spanish diaspora and beyond.

Head up one more flight of stairs from the restaurant to find a cinema like no other. Comfortable and stylish seating, food and beverage options outside the concession norm (don’t worry, we’ve got the classics too), and of course, motion pictures that are sure to entertain!

Visit us at Bernie’s on Bernard for an unparalleled experience in the Okanagan. We’ll see you at the movies.

    Food was delicious, however we were very cold in our seats with a fan from above blowing directly on us. The service was good though we ordered wine to accompany our meal and the wine arrived several minutes after our meals arrived. Overall, we had an enjoyable evening except for the cold air.

    We took advantage of the Mothers Day menu which was unique and amazing. Each of the three courses were packed with flavour and offered a truly delicious taste experience.

    Reserved a quiet spot for my partners birthday weeks in advance only to be placed between the expo line and the washrooms... We wanted to order mains but the table was tiny with barely enough room for the menus, we instead settled for appies and a drink and left disappointed. Service was fine but slow, waitress was lovely though! we will be back, hopefully for a less disappointing experience.
    Bernie'sResponded on May 7, 2025
    Thank you Janaea so much for taking the time to share your feedback, and for choosing us to celebrate such a special occasion! We’re truly sorry to hear that your experience didn’t meet expectations, especially after planning ahead for a quiet evening. Your comments about the table placement and limited space are completely valid, and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience that caused during your visit. We hope to see you again shortly and provide you the experience we know we can deliver!
