Love this place. It is quiet kid friendly and reasonably priced. Pop corn and snacks are the only expensive stuff where they get you, but their popcorn is the best. And you get to refill it. So between my 4 kids and I we refill at least 2 times then refill before we go home.

Awesome, 3 screen theater thats well managed. Rachel is the manager of the Strand and she is one of the most professional and helpful managers Ive ever met. I dropped my wallet while I was watching a late showing and by the time I returned home and realized it, the theater was closed. I left a message on their phone that evening and called again in the morning. Luckily, I spoke with Rachel and she said she did have my wallet and I picked it up after lunch the next day when the theater opened. As expected, all my money was gone and with how dishonest people can be these days, I wasnt surprised. I quickly called Rachel back once I realized my money was gone, just to let her know. I wasnt going to make a big fuss, I love this small town theater and want to give it my business. I simply wanted to inform her of the situation as she would likely know who was on staff and cleaning up the night before. We hung up the phone and to my surprise, 10 minutes later Rachel called me back and noted that she had recovered my money!All this to say, the Strand is led with integrity and honesty, the ticket prices are cheap and the theater is clean and well kept. It isnt your big city, huge screen theater, but its a quaint, small town theater thats I love!

Cute little theater. We go here if I dont feel like driving to Altoona. Runs cold, so bring a jacket. The one major thing is they will overseat the free movies. I watched people walk in after spending a lot on concessions and have to sit on the floor. So always check before purchasing concessions for seats!

We moved to Grinnell last year, and went from occasional movie goers to regulars because we love the Strand. Wonderful experience, fantastic people, the best popcorn, and its much more reasonable than other movie theatres! We have also been known to get the popcorn to go:)

This is a fantastic local theatre and we love supporting it. It has 3 screens, plenty of seating, is always clean and quiet, and great customer service! Snacks/concessions are a little spendy, but we still get them every time.

The Strand tries hard to provide variety in its show offerings and offers reasonable pricing. Stadium seating in 2 of the 3 theaters. Nice variety of snacks. Helpful staff. FREE popcorn on Tuesdays!

Love movies and this facility, while the auditoriums are small, there are three of them, giving viewers a choice. Perfect for the size of our community.

Review №35

Just to be clear here when I say the employees play cards in their down time I understand this is something they do out of boredom. But setting up the entire of stack of cards right in front of me as in shuffling and laying them out in stacks on your side and then the stacka for the employee on their side your playing against, then playing several moves in front of me while rudely telling me your help me in a minute while I have been standing their for at least a minute in the middle of my movie just wanting a refill is rude. Then sighing loudly or rolling eyes and acting aggitated with me while I stand their dumbfounded and polite. The card playing thing has happened on at least two occasions. Seriously rude

Such a great theater for the price. It wont have the mega screen or crowds as others, but those will cost you twice as much. Very generous on their popcorn as well!
