The former Broadway Cinema is situated on the W side of Main Street and S of Kyle Street Built between 1934 and 1935 with an Art Deco style entranceway and pitched roof auditorium to the rear.

The building was built for the Prestwick Cinema Company Ltd and opened in 1935. Following closure as a cinema it re-opened as a bingo hall in 1966.

Photographed by RCAHMS in 1999 when in use as an amusement arcade/leisure centre, by 2008 the building was disused.
