Setting – The Drexel Grandview, on Grandview's main drag, is almost entirely composed of its one large, grand screen. Its sister theater, the Drexel East, is a small, dim theater in Bexley with three screens and a hallway that connects it to the Drexel Radio Cafe. – – History – When Jeff and Kathy Frank bought the Drexel East in 1981, it was a second-run, single-screen, double-feature theater.

Columbus Gem
by sconsta902 at Citysearch
Drexel Theatres are one of the great things about Columbus. They are now owners, or partial owners, of 4 theatres--Grandview, Bexley (Drexel East), Arena Grand, and Drexel Gateway. These folks have managed to continue showing high-quality indpendent films, mixed with some more mainstream stuff at the Arena Grand, without compromising taste. Great movies, great people, great atmosphere!
- Pros: atmosphere, people, film choices
- Cons: parking (sometimes)
Where to go for Indy Movies
by dogbrick at Citysearch
I wish there were more theaters like Drexel around. One screen, indy movies, fair concession prices. It's a nice change of pace from the hyper-mega theater chains with stadium seating and 34 screens. If only you could eat pizza and drink beer it would be perfect!
- Pros: Local feel
- Cons: Limited parking
