Wow, what a difference a few years makes. We have not been here in a while and were so…read moredisappointed. First, we were not informed when we made reservations, that this night was a fund raising event for a local soccer team. We were only told it was a special event and cover was $20. If we had known it was a fund raiser we would have skipped it. The audience were all people who were there for the fundraiser and they were pretty drunk and disruptive. Some walked out after getting into it with the comedians. Ugh, the comedians. They sucked. Horrible. Not funny. I don't know how else to say it. No Bueno! I have no idea how Chipps Cooney made it to the Season 5 quarterfinals of Americas Got Talent. If I ever run into Sharon Osbourne, Piers Morgan or Howie Mandel I'm gonna punch them in the face! Servers were no where to be found. We saw a waitress once and then she never came back to check on us the rest of the night. However, their policy is, you cannot go out to the bar and get food or drink to bring back in to the comedy club. If we went out to get waters and diet coke they would not let us back in. So, we sat for 90 minutes dying of thirst. Good thing the comedians weren't funny otherwise we might have gotten dehydrated from laughing.

On May 5, we hosted friends from out of town and invited them to join us at The Rrazz Room to see…read moreSteve Grand perform live. While we enjoyed the concert, not a single thing about the venue went well. First, admission was disorganized, delayed and what was supposed to be VIP seating turned into the most cramped space imaginable. Service, either at the bar or at the tables was next to impossible. We waited 30 minutes for two glasses of wine, one mixed drink and one water. The six food items we ordered for our group of six people yielded only two sub-par appetizers. The rest of the food - over a 3.5 hour period - never arrived. Beyond never being able to find a server, the inattentive bar staff and no-where-to-be-found management, it became clear to all in attendance that the staff completely abandoned any effort to serve guests after about one hour and 45 minutes into the evening. Numerous people were opening questioning whether the staff had simply walked out, if only there was someone to ask. At one point, both the entertainment (Steve Grand) and the packed house openly joked about the fact that no food or drinks were being served. Gallows humor, yet no effort by management was made to remedy the situation. Yet, checks were dropped with haste toward the end of the evening. One in our party joked, "How did these checks get here? By drone?" The final touch, of course, was that nearly every check dropped at our large, communal table was wrong. We were charged for food that never came, and drinks we never ordered. When I found a server, hiding out in the lobby and asked what happened to cause such a train wreck of service, he told me "they reorganized the tables right before the event." I'm not sure why moving tables would derail service so unbelievably, but it did and still there was no apology. Just lots of servers sheepishly changing checks of very angry guests. I was embarrassed for our friends and for the fact we promised them a great evening. We ultimately found a nearby restaurant still open afterward and got something to eat after four hours of non-service. The management should be ashamed of themselves for not stepping up and making some type of effort to apologize to the entire crowd. When your entire room full of guests and the entertainment are making a stink about horrific service, you step up and take responsibility. All this place seems to want to do is take your credit card.

(Bald head, leather hat) I am happy to speak with the management team if you are looking to clean up your staff. We could tell he was jacked up, just coming on his shift apparently pumped as all hell to be making $8 bucks an hour? The curse of the small town gay bar bouncer lives on and the comedy show continued off stage. He had a really unfortunate way about him. Jackasses like him will cost the owners more than he is worth in a small town like New Hope.

I was glad it was off season so we got a parking spot right near the entrance. After some confusion as to where to go, we realized that the large door to go into the music venue inside the bar area, was closed. We were told that after sound check they'd open the doors to let ticket holders in. We decided since we were extra early, to order some food. We sat in one of the two booths in the bar area. I had chicken fingers and fries and my boyfriend got the cheesesteak. All of the food was good!

Be the first to review this somewhat hidden gem of a music venue and brewery? don't mind if I do!…read more Over my past couple of years of listening to them, Foxy Shazam has evolved into being a band that I really needed to see live. So when I saw that they were playing this random Millersville venue not all that far away I was instantly intrigued, and then I was even more sold when I saw that the venue also brewed their own beer. I also loved that it was a non-Ticket Master venue that used Eventbrite to sell tickets without an insane amount of hidden fees. And when I checked it out it was a hidden gem of a pleasant surprise. Unless you go to Millersville University, the area that the venue is at is one that you might not frequent. But Phantom Power is one of those few other reasons to visit since it delivers a fine assortment of local flavor events and national touring acts. Regular events include things like gothic/industrial dance parties, comedy nights, a Kegs and Eggs weekend brunch event, or just chilling in their outdoor beer garden on good weather days. I would absolutely go to things like these if Millersville was even closer! But on the flip side Phantom Power has also been seeing a good surge of national acts coming through thanks to WXPN taking notice for shows and them just being a fun and reliable space which I'll get to. In addition to Foxy Shazam I've seen big local names like Hop Along and mewithoutyou, indie acts like Delta Spirit and Sondre Lerche, Industrial and Punk bands like Front 242 and Reverend Horton Heat, and WTF WoW shows like Tim Cappello from Lost Boys (I still believe! - https://youtu.be/LpuwcINDHnQ) on their current and past lineup. It kind of reminds me of pleasantly filled memory venues of yesteryear like the Trocadero, only with a better beer list! Once we made our way through the lot to the venue we realized how big it is. Outside of their brunch event, they don't have a menu of their own, but I love the food truck connections they have and really wish I could remember the name of the BBQ truck that had those glorious smoked wings! The on-site brewed beer was as much of a hidden gem as the music venue since we enjoyed IPAs, stouts, pilsners, ESBs, and some other good varieties. The one suggestion I have is that, with a music venue of its caliber that also has a good beer list, it would be useful for them to have more sheld space to leave cups on during a jam-packed show like the one we were at, Foxy Shazam is one of those good energy rock bands that I would have enjoyed without good sound or lighting. But the fact that they had both in spades definitely helped. Now that I know this hidden gem is a success I'm checking their Facebook and Eventbrite pages (they don't actually seem to have their own site outside of those) for eye-catching shows, and you should do the same!

The food..think any hotel catered event..not always well seasoned or cooked to your liking...the salad (skip it); the chicken was dry and the salmon was a good portion size! The dessert-cheesecake was average! The entertainment-the actors were energetic, but could benefit from wearing a mic! The story 'whodunnit' storyline was jumbled and had many distractions..but if you are a fan of JB Fletcher or Columbo...you know that is to throw you off!

If you care about getting a really good seat, definitely come early. We were able to get a table in the middle section but away from the flow of foot traffic. They have your standard bar food so don't expect to be blown away. Since they have a 2-item minimum per person, you might as well just try what catches your eye. We got the Brunswick Buffalo Wings which I enjoyed. They're on the smaller side, had a slight kick, but satisfying overall. These paired so well with their Factory Fries! I would suggest every table get a basket of these deliciously seasoned curly fries. They were hot, fresh, and addicting. Great to munch on throughout the show. The Beef Burger w Cheese was also decent but not too memorable. The Apple Pie is a skip for me. The staff was efficient and friendly. As soon as the show was over, we paid our bill and were out the door in maybe 5 minutes. I thought it would take much longer but they have a solid system in place! Great venue for a comedy show & light dinner!

I've never been to the Stress Factory before but it merits a return visit. The ticket prices were reasonable, there is a parking garage right next to the venue and plenty of restaurants to grab a bite before the show. They require you to purchase 2 items during the show, but you can get a bottle of water and something else. I had a yummy lemon drop martinis (ok, I had 2) and some candied nuts (warm and freshly roasted). They also have plenty of food and desserts. The servers really hustle and are adept at maneuvering through the crowd to keep you hydrated and fed. Apparently, when it's warmer out, they have a bar area outside before the show. Good times! Go with friends and laugh your ass off!
