New Roc City

I came here with my job and I wasn’t too impressed.
In my opinion, this place is for a younger crowd. I heard great stories about it back then but now it seems like it went downhill.
I saw a lot of teenage high schoolers there more than I saw adults. The staff looked as is if they were ready to set the place on fire. So miserable.
There are so many places around New Roc City such as Monroe College. A lot of places to dine as well such as Buffalo Wild Wings, Applebee’s etc.

The bowling place is very expensive i went with two of my friends and it cost me 40 $ for one game and to rent the shoes.

It has been years since i visited this place they have added a lot of new games. I was sad to see that they closed the go karts.

This place has a nice glown in the dark theme only thing is it is pricey for mini golf other then that its a nice place for family or a date to just fet a change to talk

This was my first time here but it was actually really neat. It’s cool that they have so many activities in one place; they have glow in the dark mini golf, a pretty big arcade, and a bowling alley among other things. The only lame part is that they only have like three restaurants so your options are very limited but it’s still a fun place to go.

Every bad review is very accurate. I grew up around here and like I said every bad review is spot on. That’s all I’ll say!

I wish I could give no stars… Not only is this place is a dump. But the way how they set up the new parking is ridiculous. Used to be able to just put in your four digit parking space number, now you have to pick a zone and put your license plate number in and no one is there to help you. N none of zones clearly marked, there on these little teeny tiny poster. This whole place has gone to shit…

This place has sooo much fun things to do bowling was amazing the drinks were tiny but nice and strong you could actually taste the drinks not bad for 7 $, lazer tag was a great workout wooo wish it lasted longer though we had a previously bought the buy 1 one get 1 laser tag promo but couldn’t play cuz we bought tickets to see the new Jurassic Park movie the rep called manager and they put it back on our card when we came back days later it didn’t show up but the manager still honored it thank you !!!
Basketball, air hockey awesome crane game we won over 7 toys !!!
Ended the night at Buffalo Wild wings great place to go with a group of friends.

One of my favorite places growing up. I visited New Roc City as an adult and much to my dismay, not much has changed. It’s a bit desolate and the arcade could use some better maintenance. The movie theater is probably the their prime or most frequented location and at best, it’s decent. There’s nothing that really differentiates from other movie theaters. Honestly, I much prefer the AMC Bay Plaza Cinema in the Bronx. Much livelier location. Overall, New Roc City isn’t terrible, they have a glow in the dark bowling alley, arcade, and other fun activities, but there’s still a lot to be desired.

It’s an alright place. It was nicer when I was younger. The theater is nice and big. The arcade is fun but dirty. The problem with NRC is that they NEED ENTHUSIASTIC STAFF. If it’s a fun place, they deserve staff who at least look like they’re helping people have fun.

I had high hopes for NRC — I planned a night of bowling for a group of 20 coworkers as it is centrally located between our two offices. The sales associate I dealt with was intermittently responsive, and then demanded I pay in full the day before to secure the discount rate — effectively $ 1.50 off each person, and would not consider refunding any amount that went unused due to last minute cancellations. She also assured me that I didn’t need to order food platters in advance because the bar was full menu. Not so — when we arrived, the place looked a bit dirty and there was no one manning the bar.
As a result, several of my group missed a large portion of their allotted time to bowl as they went seeking food outside. Additionally, two of the lanes kept malfunctioning so games were disrupted, and though the individual staffing the counter of rentals assured me we would get more time to make up for it, when I turned around, he had left at the end of his shift and passed on no message to that effect.
Overall, very disappointing and I would not recommend to others to book here. Difficult to coordinate and light on services.

This is in regards to the bowling alley in New Roc.
lets just say, the bowling alleys i have been to in the past, you paid for a certain amount of hours. i.e. $ 15 a person for 3 hours.
My boyfriend and I walk into the bowling alley for the first time.
the first thing i notice is that its tiny. 2^nd is that all the workers looked really happy to be there (sarcasm guys).
Besides that, my boyfriend paid $ 16 dollars a person to bowl. The game started and it was 10 frames… maybe lasted 20 minutes. After the game was over it said that we needed to pay for another game… IM SORRY?! WHAT? $ 32 FOR ONE GAME?! Mind you this place is Ghetto and dirty.
FYI– the whole place is like that, filthy, a rip-​off and disgusting.
Don’t bother coming here. its a waste of valuable time and money.

MY 200TH REVIEW. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!
Such a cute and whimsical place, this really is designed like a little city. New Roc City has some fun stuff to get into-​bowling, mini golf, billiards, movie theater and restaurants (Applebee’s, Texas Roadhouse.) There’s even a Residence Inn Hotel right in the center of everything in case you want to make your experience a mini-​vacation. My favorite hangout in New Roc is the bowling alley. There’s a DJ, booze, messy, greasy, bowling alley food faves like ice cream, cookies, pizza and everything’s kinda, sorta dark and lit up in neon. My handsome date and I bowled a terrible game last night, ⁶⁸⁄₇₂. I won so it didn’t suck too much. They’ve got a free-​fall type ride here that I want to experience but it always seems to be shut down for the night whenever I find myself at New Roc City. Movies are offered in «RPX»…whatever that means. Going back soon to find out.

In the future, when white people say that racism isn’t really a thing anymore, I’ll be sure to direct them to the reviews for New Roc City.
Anyways, I don’t know whether to advise against checking out what I’m about to say or if you should actually do it but there’s a «rocket» thing that goes up and looks over NYC that costs $ 5 for one ride. When you get up there (maybe 20 feet high), all you can see is The Bronx. It is one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen. There’s no way any body could ever go up there and say «this is beautiful.» The famous Manhattan skyline is nowhere in sight, and almost the whole line of sight is high rise buildings with lights on. I don’t know what was going through the creator’s head when he thought this ride would be appropriate in this building. It’s such a waste of money but the experience is priceless. I was disappointed, maybe even a little mad at the time, but in retrospect, this is fantastic and bizarre.
The glow in the dark mini golf was pretty cool. There were trippy glow in the dark mushrooms painted all over the walls. Sufficient to scare anyone who’s actually tripping… these weren’t smiling mushrooms.
Much of this establishment appears to not have been updated since 1999, but what has around here? This is the land time forgot, after all. This is an observation absent of racial implication by the way. I can’t choose how politicians spend our money. Either way, I had a great night here, drinking vodka out of a water bottle like a teenager (actually, was it 4 years ago already?), and doing and seeing things I couldn’t even dream up. In some ways it’s like walking into a David Lynch movie… a little uncomfortable, a little frustrating, but ultimately a rewarding experience.

Best hang out spot if it wasn’t so far away from me I love the movies and I love a good game of pool so it’s no wonder that when I come in spent the whole day here.
I usually stop by a drink or a snack at the Applebee’s go for a game of pool and have some beers there and the catch a movie pretty buzzed lol!
My only complain is that it’s gotten a bit pricey over the years.

This place is GHETTO!!! Dont waste your money going to this place! 90% of the workers dont care about their job or customer service. They’re young an unprofessional. When you ask for help ir assistance its as if you are bothering them because they had to stop texting or talkinh about sneakers to their co-​workers.
I would rate this place a 0 if I could. The arcade games and broken and out of date, the games to win stuffed animals are rigged, the bowling staff makes you wait and the shoes are old and look like they have mold and fungus. The bowling racks are always breaking and management in the arcade and bowling area dont give a crap.
If you are ghetto and on a budget, and dont care about your money, then go here. Otherwise, if you care about having a good time and being treated well, spend some extra cash doing something else at a nicer place. They should just fire everyone here, knock this place down and build it back up again with smarter and customer centric staff. Customer service and everything sucks here!!!

I’ve been only once and I don’t really wanna go back again.
I went to the arcade with some friends and the arcade wasn’t bad.
However, I got this lunar new year deal where it’s unlimited games for 1 hour. but it’s a trap! because they limit the types of games you can play and there are a lot of restrictions to the «unlimited» games. For example, you can’t play games where you can win tickets that you can redeem for prizes.
One plus side is if you are playing a game like Time Crisis 4, you technically have unlimited lives because you can always just swipe again for an hour when you die and it asks «do you want to continue?»… i had never gotten so far in the game haha
Also, it’s really hard to schedule in a lazer tag game, you have to sign up early.
The mini golf didn’t look too bad… (dark with black lights), but the course itself was pretty terrible. very boring, nothing that challenging.
If I ever come back it will probably be for bowling. When I asked if they had any specials they said something along the lines of $ 20 for 4 hours of unlimited bowling on mondays. I hope this «unlimited» is a little better.

This review is about the evacuation recently .due to fire alarm. I like this cinema
but
the recent fire alarm that evacuated the entire theatre? Last time I experienced this elsewhere .(yeah I’ve been lucky twice) the other cinema management .was waiting at exits with return comp passes.
I was alone, I was out $ 16. and a wasted evening
if I had kids with me, it would have been a $ 30 disappointment… AT the very LEAST. i think they should review their policy with this subject and their total lack of communication throughout this experience.

I believe the bad reviews on this place has been because of it’s history which i am not aware of. I think most people are prejudice and go into a situation expecting the worst and as such that’s exactly what happens. I have been here afew times on weekend nights and it has been fun galoreeee. The Mini Golf is definitely one of my favorite activities there. Playing in the dark with your glowing golf ball is totally fun. Usually not alot of people are playing so it’s definitely the way to go. The last hole though is a bummer kinda feel they owe me ¹⁄₁₈^th my money smh. But anyways, I also played the Ping Pong and Pool and the Arcades. They are all extremely spacious. You get a container of balls when playing Ping Pong so it is not a hassle to keep fetching the balls when you make an errant shot (A hugeee plus unlike any other ping pong spot I have been to) There are several pool tables as well .It’s not my favorite but definitely a great addition to the place. Onto the main reason alot of people would come here besides the movie theater is the ARCADE … The Arcade is simply amazing. Anyone who rates this arcade as anything less than amazing is… stupid? The arcade swallows the likes of Dave and Busters, Chinatown arcade even Chucky Cheese’s. Size surely does matter … in terms of Arcades i.e. but NRC has an enormous variety of games including the usual basketball and air hockey and games available for any age group which sets them apart from the rest.

I genuinely think this place deserves 5 + stars. The sheer amount of fun you can have in this place is unparalleled. The grand majority of people who don’t are the ones who go into it thinking negatively. Focus solely on having a good time and ignore the rest and you can fully appreciate what this place has to offer. If not, then Chucky Cheese or Dave and Busters is the way to go.

I like New Roc City. And first, I want to say I’m offended by the people that say that New Roc City has scary and ghetto people. Yes, this is in the New York City area so there will be diversity. It won’t be only white people there. If that’s what you want then travel a couple more hours upstate and you’ll get strictly white people and you can feel safe from us scary Hispanic and black families.
This place is great. They have something for people of all ages. Mini golf, go carts, Applebees, Buffalo wild wings, an imax movie theater, arcade, pool tables, bowling, ping pong… I might have missed something. Any way, the place is clean and a great time Weather you’re on a date or bringing the family.
