We just celebrated my daughter's first birthday at the carousel on 6/23/19 and let me tell you that…read morethe entire experience from start to finish was amazing. Every time I called or spoke to someone, they were so kind, willing to answer every question I had and assured me that everything would be perfect. They were right. The space for the carousel is for 50 people because that is how many chairs they have available. We had over 50 people there and you never felt crammed or squashed. There was SO much space. We had entertainers come and they had room to set up and put on their shows as well. They park provides 6 rectangular tables for guests to sit at as well as 3 other tables that could be used to food, gifts, favors..etc. The carousel operator ( I wish I would have remembered her name) was amazing- she was so kind and attentive and even gave the baby a t shirt! The staff working at the concession was also so helpful in letting us unload the food and drinks prior to the party start time. A special thank you to Emily who really went above and beyond to make sure everything went right. The weather was perfect too and it helps that the entire carousel section is covered so even if its hot outside, it was nice and shaded. Our guests were raving about this party for many days afterwards. We even had many native Staten Islanders who had come there for the first time. They will definitely be returning. I want to have every party there from now on. Thank you again to the staff, Do not hesitate to throw a party here because you well get your moneys worth and the experience will surely be a positive one.

Im always greeted with a welcoming smile, and an eagerness to help me w/all my shopping needs. The store is kept clean and tidy even in the busiest of holiday traffic, unkept/unruly children, and hectic birthday parties. The company itself makes an array of "bears", exotic animals, and the newest Disney/Pixar/Dreamworks character they can get their paws on to the copyrights to sell. The wide variety of accessories for all their bears include uniforms, dress-up costumes, everyday wear, jewelry, disability/illness supplies (band aids/arm slings/wheelchairs etc), and even wigs. But when your all done picking the perfect bear, outfit & accessory, you get to stuff it exactly to your liking, and even name and create a Birth Certificate for your creation. PS: They have the cutest tiny stuffed bear ornaments for your tree. They're even embroidered with year on the paw for $5. Perfect stocking stuffer. It's fun for adults AND children!

Birthday party Tip: consider buying a silver/gold 2 month fun pass if hosting a large birthday…read moreparty. The money you save on food (using the fun pass) can basically cover the cost of the fun pass If you place a scheduled food order online, the kitchen doesnt actually see the order until 10 minutes before the pick up time. So if you schedule a big order, make sure you pick the time accordingly to give them more time to prep your food, or what we did was, when we got to the place at 5pm, we told them we made an online food order for 630pm. They couldnt see our order yet so they copied our order down from our receipt and gave it to the kitchen so they could start prepping our order Ive hosted 2 parties here before and they went great. My cousin wanted to host a party here, but she decided last minute (day of) so she wasnt able to book birthday party. However, we still went in regularly and found our own tables to sit at and they let us bring a birthday cake. We bought pass cards and points for all the kids using my Gold fun pass. 1000 play points only came out to about $110. For 10 kids, each kid had 100 points which is a good start, may last them like 1.5-2 hours depending on what games they play and how fast they play it. Can always add more points if needed. Food was 50% off and we saved over $170.

The only unfortunate thing is that there's one wall, so two sides to play. It'll take a while to get a lot of games in with just two walls :( and there were a lot of gnat-like bugs flying around, no mosquitoes though so bring bug spray! Other than that, the courts are great. The place is kept clean. They're surrounded by an oval-shaped fence so the ball isn't hard to retrieve once you hit it out. It'll eventually come back to you lol. The wall is in good condition; no cracks on it or the floors. Lines are clear. Definitely one of the best places to play on Staten Island.

I took away a star because the balls kept losing air and needed to be refilled after games. The guys said they get new balls annually, so some of them were showing age I guess.
