I hate writing a review like this because I really do support the underground arts, but I came to…read moreone play here a little while back and it there were a lot of issues. So the play that I went to see was a play that was performed at The Forum a couple years ago, and I skipped out on it because I was broke at the time. I was excited that there was a cheaper version coming to EPAC, I thought that it was the same group of traveling semi-pro actors but at a smaller venue. I was wrong. This was amateur hour. There were a couple good actors in the group, but the rest of em were about as good as the average high student. They were all local but most of them have a long way to go before they make it big. A couple of them were over-acting, they were very melodramatic. The main character was good, but the character was supposed to be an angsty teen and it was played by a bald guy in his 30's! The sound was a nightmare too, some characters' mics weren't working while other ones were too loud and there was a lot of microphone feedback too. The actor who started the play off came in off cue, and it was a huge struggle for me to not burst out laughing during the first song. So unfortunately I was very underwhelmed with my first theater experience here, I'm in zero rush to go back. The theater itself looks really nice, but it's a little unorganized, there seemed to be a lot of confusion as to where people were supposed to sit, but that might not have been the theater's fault, it was probably dumb audience members. The play was $20 and really it should have only been $10 because of the bad quality of the show.

Endicott Performing Arts Center is the true meaning of Community Theater.. They are proud of every show that is put on there, and strive to make each show better and better...Opinions are like butt holes every one has one.....And most people are big ones like baboon butts....How ever doing a show is not an easy thing there is many aspects of a show that the audience never knows about but you know what?Live theater is just that LIVE. Mistakes will be made. Most of what you hear at the forum ect is pre recorded if the actor isn't feeling well or the chorus sound horrible. Only the leads sing live if they can.. This is done in most cases with shows here and on Broadway.. Sound, Lights, costumes, programs, and actors and there schedules donate there time to perform for you.. NO one gets paid unlike actors who come from new York city who are under equity contracts who have to be payed weather your butts in the seat or not.. Who really don't care other that the money that's coming in.. EPAC casts have amazing hearts and there doing this for the love of theater. Not to mention keeping up a land mark building who's trying to be a leader in a dying community...I wouldn't listen to negative reviews about epac. Please go and support local community theater. They need your support......

Everything about this place is on-theme, right down to the items on the menu. While the food is definitely bar fare, don't underestimate it; every single one of their offerings is crafted to perfection! My favorites include the Sauer Loser hotdog (mouth-watering combo of sauerkraut and mustard on all beef franks) and the Flamin' Hot Smothered Cheetos (an elevated take on the spicy snack)! As for drinks, they have a fun array of game-themed cocktails and mocktails. Yes, you heard right, mocktails! And they are all incredible. My favorite is the Wowza Bowzer mocktail, which has a little bit of a kick with habanero bitters. The Waka-Waka-Waka cocktail (mule) features a Pac-Man shaped lemon slice eating a cherry, which is a fun touch! But, as we know, we come for the food and stay for the games, so what's available? Well, they have over 30 vintage games ranging from arcade classics like PacMan and Mortal Combat to more interactive favorites like DDR, hoops, and racing games (check out their website for a full listing). Plus, a couple pool tables and a few chill spots in the 2-story location (which includes a few quiet nooks with seating between the floors). While this space is definitely kid-friendly, it is only open to 21+ after 9pm, which provides a great experience for families and night crawlers alike!

We were there for a while because I was doing a 2 color polka dot pattern on my mug that took a little bit of time. The environment was nice and though it was a little crowded we still managed to find a place to sit with lots of options. My disappointment actually stems from the final product I picked up. I picked two specific colors for my pattern, blue and green, and made the cup black. I asked the woman working multiple times about the colors and with the dots if I needed to go over them multiple times to make sure the color came out right. I was told no and that the pattern and colors looked great and would turn out great. To my surprise when I picked up my cup there was not a single drop of blue anywhere to be seen. Not even a little bit. I am so sad and disappointed because I had not only specifically asked about the colors but if I would have known the blue would not have shown I would have went with a different color. The cup to me looks like it's missing something, because it is, but other people seem to like it. But I'm just super disappointed and wish that when I had asked I would have been told that's not a color you can do with black. Because I obviously had no idea and spent a good amount of time trying to make it perfect. I wanted to include pictures to show what it looked like when I left it and when I picked it up. If I can recommend anything it's for the employees to help with transparency when helping people start their project and expectations on that. I paid for 2 mugs that day so almost $50 and I just got disheartened when I picked mine up. I would still recommend this place as it's super cute and is still a fun day activity. Just wish I would have known about the colors while painting.

Ithaca, Watkins Glen,…read moreTioga Gardens, Greenwood Lake, Endicott Cinema Saver, Chucksters, are all of our go-to fun spots. This summer, however, it was just my son and I. Father and son bonding requires a special outing, so I simply Googled "Fun things to do in Binghamton" Robot City was the first thing that popped up, and quite frankly, I didn't read further. With the help of a GPS, we found RC pretty easily, just a few minutes from 17. I was told the area might be shady but , being from Philly, it didn't stand out as a particularly bad area. There was also ample parking next to the building in case you were wondering. Upon walking in, the child that still lives within me had a heart attack. On display was almost every single game system known to manchild complete with the software. I even saw a godamn Game Glove! I wasn't really in the market for such things but it was entertaining just browsing. In the back of the store lays the arcade. From sight to sound to smell it was reminiscent of the arcades I frequented in my own Stranger Things days of the early 80s. Even the 2 tone neon paint job on the walls nailed it. The place is near perfection. Before actually playing, we just walked the rows, geeking out on each game. You'll find all the greatest hits here, from Pac Man to Donkey Kong. Also pinball aplenty. My PS4 playing 15 yr old son quickly adapted to the 8bit life. We separated and did our own thing and I was both thrilled and jealous to keep seeing the BEN name in number 1 spots. Also cool is that my 2 favorite games from my day that they had at Robot City; Joust and Gyruss, turned out to be my sons favorites without me even influencing it. This shit is genetic! I've been to a few 80s arcades (recently) and Robot City is by far the best. Notable exceptions here (and the others) are 2 of my favorite 80s games ; Kangaroo and Burger Time. They must be difficult to get. I like the pricing system here. I've been to some where you pay a flat fee and play games for free within a time limit, but I prefer Robot City's method of simply buying tokens ($10-44 tokens etc). Most games were 1 token, some 2. It worked for us, mostly because my son is a video game savant. We stretched $10 into an hour and a half visit. We came again and did the $20 for 96 tokens and after 2+ hours, we had to leave with a handful of unused tokens (like Aanold , we will be back) If I lived in the area, I'd be here at least monthly. I hope the people of the southern tier don't take this place for granted, it's a real gem.

They also offer charcuterie boards and a butter board. The butter board wasn't being offered that day but we had seen it online and we were excited about it. Rick was nice enough to make us one anyway. We were treated so well that day. The food was stupendous. The winery and the grounds are beautiful and serene. We cannot wait to return to Glen Park!
