The cinema opened on 17 April 1911 in former restaurant premises and was altered in the 1920s to include a gallery and bring the capacity up to 400 people. The Kingstown in the name was later dropped when the town reverted back to Dun Laoghaire. It passed from Associated Picture Houses to Odeon (Ireland) in the late 1940s and was closed. It reopened as the Tatler around 1950 giving it another decade or so of life. It closed in 1962 and was later dance-hall and then a bank.
