Scott Cinemas is a small UK company based in the English county of Devon that owns a small chain of cinemas within the UK. These include cinemas in: Barnstaple, Bridgwater, East Grinstead, Exmouth, Lyme Regis, Newton Abbot and Sidmouth.

It is notable because it is a British company running cinemas in Britain and is not owned by any foreign companies which is unusual, as other industries have suffered in recent decades when multiple British companies were bought out by foreign companies.fact|date=July 2008 A good example is the British motor industry. Larger and more successful U.K. cinema chains such as Cineworld, are owned by other companies who are based in different nations. Cineworld is owned by The Blackstone Group, who are based in the U.S.A.

The Savoy Cinema in Exmouth is Universally regarded as being the jewel in Devon's cinematic crown. The staff are curtious and well mannered, and come from all walks of life (including members of the alternative scene). The building which is situated on the Strand is of great historical interest to wallpaper fans the world over and at one point in time featured an internal waterfall. Although there were previously several cinemas in the town of Exmouth the Savoy Cinema trounced them all and to this day reigns supreme.
