The Local FFF - Fun! Funner! Funnest!

Came here on a sunday afternoon. Our food came out promptly and I was thrilled that the kids meal price included a milk!. As a child of the 80s I cringe when I see crinkle cut fries on a menu, but they were surprisingly crispy and I stole some of my kiddos too (shhhhh dont tell). I had an impossible burger and it was perfect! Only thing that could be better was more of a selection for vegetarians. Tacos or nachos without meat or with beans instead would be an easy menu fix! While we were here, the kiddo tri

Attended our grandson's birthday party today. It was awesome! He and his friends had fun playing laser tag and mini golf. Our host/server was phenomenal ?? The food was great. Amazing service, fun attractions, and, best of all, our grandson had a wonderful time. Thank you ??

Lots of fun! A wide variety of entertainment including laser tag, skating, escape rooms, karaoke, arcade games, billiards, pinball and more. There is a large bar area and an even larger seating area. They have funflatables for the kiddos. The food was fair. The burgers had potential but were overcooked as was the onion rings.

We were there this past Saturday, unfortunately they seem to be quite understaffed. I saw about 4 people there running the entire place. They were trying but there were so many people there they just couldn't keep up. The ladies room was absolutely disgusting and i told the girl working the prize booth- 2 hours later it looked the exact same. I bought bottled sodas for the kids- 3 came to almost $14! That's around a 400% markup on a soda. The bounce house started to deflate at one point and parents were at

We booked a birthday party last night for my daughter's 11th birthday. Our host was awesome! He was very hospitable, kind, and thoughtful. I was actually shocked by his customer service.. I truly rate our expierence a 10/10 and would totally recommend others to book a party here!! ??

Such a fun place for kids to unwind and have some fun. We had an awesome birthday party for our son here and it went off without a hitch. We had 10boys around 8-10yrs old and the staff was so helpful, served pizza and took care of everything in a timely manner. The manager even gave me a free drink and a rose :) ?? we Literally showed up with the kids and cake and they took care of the rest. We didn't feel rushed like other places we've had kid parties at. The boys loved the laser tag and arcade. Food was p

I go here every week with my 8 year old son. All of the staff are very kind to him. We play the video games, eat food and order sprite. This place is great for children. They also have pinball, bowling, and pool tables. Definitely 5 stars, we love The Local. I have posted videos to YouTube so people can know more about this wonderful place They are going to have roller skating, laser tag, miniature golf and other amazing things to offer.

Great food, service and friendly atmosphere. Not a fan of the phone menu thing. Really needed a human as our drinks took almost 40 minutes to come to us and that was after asking the staff. No waters while we ate our meal.

They opened recently like summer of 2023 but the maintenance on the machines is next to nothing!! There's no signs or anything letting you know if the game is not working but of course they let you swipe your card and spend money you won't get back. Very disappointing!! The angry birds machine doesn't have a ball to use, the down clown game has the top row broken, the balloon bust only gives you one ball when you're supposed have get 6, the motorcycle racing game has a handle missing from each bike with gro

Cool place, especially for families or large groups. Similar to a Dave & Busters where you purchase a card to play games and collect tickets but they also have, ade throwing, darts, pool tables, 6 pin ball machines, bowling, escape rooms, and karaoke ??. We ate lunch at the bar, only 1 waitress for the whole place was on so she was stretched thin. Food was luke warm and had definitely been sitting for a bit; but they've only been open for 2 weeks and it sounded like the "head cook" had called out that day

My daughter and i love this place with new things on the horizon like laser tag roller skating and such and the staff here are great 10/10 recommendation on this place being ur party partner or even a rainy day get away! The food is great with new items added to the menu?s weekly and the added event that take place outside!

This place has serious potential, but unfortunately falls short on several key fronts. Let's start with the positive: the staff were genuinely friendly and helpful, which is a big plus. However, even the nicest staff can't compensate for the significant issues plaguing this establishment. First, the cleanliness was a major concern. The floors were sticky throughout, making for an unpleasant and somewhat unsanitary experience. This issue extended to the bathrooms, which were frankly disgusting and in dir

We recently had a party planned at the Local FFF for my daughters 10th birthday. The day of the event we found out that they double-booked the roller rink for her rollerskating party and that option would not be available. Our daughter was heartbroken, but we move on and make the best of what we have. The Local FFF team went above and beyond to make sure her day was amazing and that we were taken care of. It ended up being a fantastic day with nothing but smiles once we arrived. The staff is amazing.

Great energetic atmosphere, lots of choices, and good fries. Edit: They have upgraded since our last visit. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. The food is still great, and the drinks are strong. The escape rooms are fun and quick to solve. The mini golf is well decorated. The arcade is still top notch, full of games and fun. They now have laser tag and roller skating. The bathrooms were cleaner and kept up nicely. Can't wait to go back.

This place is awesome! Great games, lots to do (mini golf, roller rink, escape room, laser tag) and great fast food. The drink prices are cheap and beers are fresh. What more can you ask for?

Our twins wanted to have their bday party here. Price was reasonable. They enjoyed their time with 10 friends. Maria (host) was engaged and creative to keep them all involved and moving. Perhaps the future of this mall should involve expanding family recreation. An indoor swim / water slide park and indoor racing cart track would be amazing. FFF is a great beginning to such a transition of brick and mortar mall space

It a very nice and more relaxing experience to enjoy playing games with the kids. Kids enjoy the prizes and the calm environment as us parents do as well. They even have a new game coming in soon. Would most definitely recommend it to anyone.

I went to a pinball event here and had a lot of fun on the machines. The manager was very nice and helped me with an issue I had with the play card. The bathroom was clean. I didn't eat here, but I had a lot of fun and saw a lot of birthday party groups having fun on all the different games.

Had a birthday party for my 2 kids and myself on November 8th, and it was beyond our expectations. We had over 90 people at the party and everyone raved about the service and ease of it all. The kids had the best night ever and all the adults and parents enjoyed the environment and hanging around with the bar and games. We had a huge party and the pizza came out quickly, and our hosts for the night took care of EVERYTHING for us. It was the best experience, and I would highly recommend it to anyone. As

Had fun. However, a good amount of the ticket games just ate your credits because they did not work properly. However, the person that was giving away the prizes gave my child extra prizes for free.

If you like pinball, they currently have ELEVEN games, all of which seem to be clean and in great condition. They don't cost much to play either!

Clean establishment, nice employees, decent food, and great pinball! They actually have a league that meets on thursdays, it's cool.

We used to love going to the local back when it had beer pitchers and pool tables. Now it's a bit weird, and the bartender was not great. We came in a group of 5. She took everyone else's order in the group except mine (even though i was seated right next to them trying to make eye contact with her) then went to take 2 other groups orders (one just walked up to the bar and the others had already had food and drinks and needed refills) then came back to me and asked did I want anything (as if i hadnt just be

The Local FFF is worth every penny! We had our son?s 8th birthday here, and the staff (especially Maria!) were AWESOME! They took care of everything, so well organized and helpful. We were able to relax and enjoy ourselves while the kids played laser tag. Well worth it!!

Had a wonderful time. Great staff, fun options for the little ones and an excellent spot for pinball. I hope this place sticks around.

This place is a miracle! There's live shows, bowling, an arcade, pinball, food, axe throwing, it's incredible! Yesterday I was feeling stressed, but by the end of the night, I had a smile on my face! Love this place!

We had a fantastic bouncy house themed birthday party for my 5 year old here. Our host was amazing, my husband and I didn't have to do anything but greet and mingle with our guests. It was such a relief! The package included plenty of kid friendly beverages and soda and grippy socks for each of the kids to use in the bounce house. They even included 2 adult-friendly drinks on the house for us parents! Overall, this a great place to host a children's party. Pricing was very fair as well.

We had my son's 4th birthday party here. Our party person, River, was amazing! Really the absolute best. Friendly, great with explaining the details, great with the kids and parents. Everyone had such a fun time and stress free. They supplied pizza, drinks, activities and even a small gift for my son. We had plenty of space and was not set up right next to another party which was awesome. A few days before I spoke to Maria and she was wonderful setting up the details. We will definitely be back and if I d

The Local is THE BEST venue for a birthday party. The staff is more than accommodating, the bathrooms were clean, kids had a GREAT time and the parents enjoyed themselves over a beer while the kids played. Best party ever.

Great bartenders Great pinball Burgers, wings and pizza all very good. A gem in Rotterdam!

Came here one time and was so impressed with the service that we decided to book the Local FFF for our child?s birthday party. We were not disappointed one bit! Maria, Jeremy and team promised that mom would be able to relax and they delivered on that promise. Coming from someone who is very meticulous, from the moment we were greeted til our party was over, Maria took care of everything with a smile on her face and great service on her mind. She didn't appear overwhelmed with our large party, she had a pla

Children loved it. Especially with the bouncy play area and being able to order food to the table

Decided to have my son's birthday there. We typically just have a party at our house, Never again! This place thought of everything from A-Z and was amazing. Staff was the absolute best and were so good with our bunch of 11 year old boys. We have found ourselves a new favorite spot

Went here with my children today because it was right across from the aquarium. The food was ok, but WAY too expensive for what it was. Service was also extremely lacking. Roughly $48 for 3 sodas, and 2 different kinds of fries. That's it. The drinks themselves are $4 each, and are just bottles of soda. The $48 total did include the tip that I also left. But, overall just a huge disappointment and a waste of money unfortunately.

We always have a fantastic time here. The food is good, the games are fun and the staff is always excellent. Our kids love playing the glow in the dark mini golf and the kids zone area just as much as the games and winning prizes. We even had our sins birthday party here. All the kids had a great time and the staff really took care of us. We will definitely be going back and definitely recommend having a family fun night here.

Edit: Unfortunately, they now only offer one pool/billiards table. The billiards room has been replaced by glow in the dark mini golf. They also no longer offer bowling, but roller skating instead. We used to play pool here at least 3-4 times a week, but since the pool table availability is incredibly limited we no longer hang out here. I'm sure it's still a great family place, it just doesn't meet my families needs anymore. We had a great time as a family here. We tried the ax throwing. The attendant was

Maria and Jeremy were awesome! We had the best time. The kids got to play and the adults got to relax knowing that everything was taken care of. We will be back!

Local FFF has truly outdone themselves with their recent changes, elevating the entire experience. I was there recently for a party, and the ambiance was absolutely electrifying. Anahi, our host, was phenomenal; her attention to detail and vibrant energy made our experience unforgettable. Everything from the decor to the service was impeccable. Highly recommend visiting to see the fantastic updates for yourself!

You have to come here! A great atmosphere for kids and adults alike. We came here to celebrate my brother's 10th birthday. They were beyond supportive and attentive to his needs, as a child with special needs. Very friendly staff. Our entire party thoroughly enjoyed themselves??

Very cool place with lots to do: an arcade, skating rink, karaoke, axe throwing, and more. We went to check out the arcade and we loved the pinball. Most games were working and well maintained. We had a great time here.

Had my son's birthday party here today. The food was yummy. Our party host, River, was amazing. Thorough and thoughtful. River made sure we had everything we needed, checked in, and made it super easy for us. I would highly recommend holding a party here. Will be back. ??

Employees were super friendly and the food was delicious!! Fun atmosphere as well, highly recommend!

Had my sons 7th birthday here! Food was great, staff was so accommodating and helpful! Kids played for hours at the arcade! Great place to have happy hour with friends and the kids can have a fun, safe experience as well. Jeremy and Eleni were perfect hosts!!

Jeremy and staff were amazing in handling a 7 and younger birthday party. I had a last minute cancelation and they did more than I can ever expect. The way they handle the party made it amazing. My son had an amazing birthday thanks to you all. Thank you for everything! Also, the price is unbelievable for the amount of fun the kids, and parents had!

Food is fantastic! Fun, friendly atmosphere! 10 out of 10 recommend!

Was planning on booking a party until I saw that they include an $88 tip in your fee. That's absolutely ridiculous. You can go anywhere else and I mean anywhere else and they do not include an $88 tip in their fee. They want $44 an hour tip for a 2-hour party. That's absolutely ludicrous.

I've never seen such a unique and impressive mini golf course. The whole establishment is very impressive. Something for everyone -- plenty of options for entertainment. Great food and drink selection, too

The food is very good, try their burger! Service is good, sometimes with a delay. Vib is good, kids love it. Lots of games, arcade, skate rink, mini golf, karaoke and much more. You can enjoy your drink and talk to your friends while kids are playing. Prices are reasonable

We have been here in the past. Recently they underwent a revamp. Our last visit was horrible. Many of the old machines taken out and replaced with Cornhole. Most of the games are claw type for tickets you can redeem for cheap plastic garbage. Multiple games out of order staff slow to respond. Overpriced mediocre food. Spent (wasted) $150 here for nothing. Better off going somewhere else.

Jeremy abs Eleni were amazing, accommodating to our party! They created an atmosphere for parents to relax and kids to enjoy. The food was great, pizza delicious, wings large and crispy! Definitely a place we will be back to for a neighborhood hang out!

Cody was phenomenal and the service that was provided was exceptional. The staff was very helpful and friendly. Peter was an excellent bartender. We most definitely will be making it a weekend thing.

The facilities itself is ok. Food is ok at best. They have ONE bartender working the bar. They are slowwwwwwwww. I had one walk by me 3 times and never even looked my way. The one that did help took forever to bring me something I never asked for.

My husband, son, and I stopped in for lunch. Jeremy was amazing! He was so friendly and personable. The food was great and came out super quick! While we were waiting my boys played games and had a blast. We will definitely come back again soon.

I like the fact that I spent $500 for my sons birthday at this place and games started breaking down, we were rushed to leave the area we reserved during the last half hour, the game cards that were given to the kids would stop working randomly. What makes it worse is we spent an additional $200 for the laser tag just for some kid who worked that area not understand that we had a large party and let just two people go ahead of us and all they did was mess around and the worker did nothing. The manager, Mik

This place is Amazing! They took what could have been a negative experience and turned it into the best birthday for my son who's on the spectrum. We will definitely be coming ba back....Amazing atmosphere; incredible staff; Overall Great Experience

Most of the games are broken. There is no way to check this until you buy a card to play them. This is unfortunate because it would be a decent arcade otherwise.

Under renovations at the moment. Very friendly staff. Limited food items right now due to renovations. Manager was super friendly and made a special birthday dish for me. I will definitely return. I'm told they are building a skating rink, escape runs and laser tag. I look forward to my next visit.

It was a fun time for sure. Clean and friendly atmosphere. I'll be going back. Pizza was pretty good and the mozzarella sticks were good as well. Small food menu but I could have missed something. Have to order with your phone and my battery was pretty low.

First visit today: FFF has a great selection of games (and most are reasonably priced). However a lot of games were either broken, powered off, or not working correctly which put a damper on the whole experience. Staff were nice enough to put the credits back onto our card, but it didn't seem like there was anyone on-site to fix the games.

Marie was amazing! Amazing food amazing service and the games were super fun!!!!!

I would recommend this place to EVERYONE! The staff is phenomenal and really go above and beyond. From Josh the party planner who helped me plan an EPIC party for my son who turned 21, to the General Manager Ed. Of course, I can't leave out Maria, our hostess with the mostest. So was very attentive to our needs and helped the party run smoothly! So Thank You again to The Local FFF for helping celebrate the BIG 21 for my son. Fun was had by all!

Awesome time!! Had a last min party with a bunch of kids and came here. We played games, had great food and did laser tag! Cody was out server and he was so great and helpful! Everyone was very cool! Thanks for everything!

Cool little arcade. Key word being little. Limited game selection and everything costs a dollar to play. It was good as it gave my kid something to do after the aquarium but it's not worth visiting on its own. Granted because I had my kid I didn't get to sit at the bar so it might be a decent option for sports.

My little brothers 18th birthday party was here today and we had a BOMB ass time and our server Maria .D was the dopest server there shouts out to you for making my brothers day a success we appreciate you girl ??

We had my son?s birthday party here and it was great! The staff was so attentive and helpful. We didn't have to do a thing except enjoy ourselves. This is a great place to have a party or take the kids on a rainy day or when they're bored.

We had our daughters birthday here last minute. The staff was friendly and accommodating, Jeremy helped hook my daughter up with some awesome prizes. Pizza was delicious!

Wonderful experience, it's been a while since we have been and the change they made seems to be for the better. Cody was great with our kid and all the other kids. Give that kid a raise. We will be back for sure!

We came to enjoy the arcade and axe throwing after getting a bite to eat. We were the first ones to try the new escape room, it was pretty good! Good food and atmosphere, definitely worth it to come again.

This place is so amazing they have arcade games a roller skating rink, black light mini golf, ax throwing, laser tag, escape rooms, the staff are so nice and actually care about their jobs and so does the manager ! It really shows it's the best customer service I've had in a long time! Which is so hard to find these days Keep up the great work it's my second time here and I'll definitely be back again

If you are in the market for drinks, food and games, I'm sure this is your place. I'm probably not the target audience. Was thrilled to see vegan options while traveling. I had the philly cheese steak and fries. My friend had the nachos. They were fine and again great to have a few vegan options. Absolutely love that you can order and pay with a qr code.

Came with my husband and kids to play some games on school break and they loved it. We went back a few days later on my younger sons birthday to play games again and have some food. We ordered our food almost immediately after sitting down. It took a really long time to get our drinks. A young girl came and put food on our table that was not ours so it sat for about 10 min before we could find someone to tell them and they came and took it and brought it to the correct table. When our food came it was good,

The reason for the two stars it's to get their attention about their music being way to loud. It's just ridiculous that you have to yell to the person right next to you. During the day on a Sunday the management should be more aware of the families that are in there trying to enjoy themselves. I dropped over $100 in two hours but I left with a pounding headache. Otherwise food was good, place was clean the people were friendly the games are fun -great addition to Schenectady county, but please know your aud

My experience today was really an unexpected one, every single worker was so polite, understanding and understanding with my four little ones. Jeremy was so interactive and I will definitely be coming back not only because the New activities will be there but because of the hospitality and kindest of them all. Thank you for today :)

1 star is generous. The food was disappointing. One of our meals didn't come out until we had all already finished and it was not hot. Pulled pork tacos came out on flour tortillas that were stale. There was no slaw as listed on the menu but no one said anything - just put the plate down with a lump of meat drenched in BBq sauce and half an onion ring on it. It was luke warm at best Pretty sure the macaroni and cheese was just microwaved from a bag. Overall a horrible experience. I don't know why anyone w

Y'all charge way too much to play games! $3.00 for 1 play! Ridiculous! And bonus points don't work with prize games. What's with that?! Such a rip off!

The staff were friendly and personable. They were very attentive to our needs. I would come back with my family every weekend if I could thanks for making our birthday feel extra special!!!!

I've heard rumors that this new place has pinball machines in it. When i heard the rumors from our group, i had to pay this place a visit. I had a hard time looking for where its located as the GPS is saying to go to one place but its pointing to an abandoned store for some reason. The maps in the mall are outdated so that didn't help ether... I eventually found the entrance on the other side of where the GPS is saying and the first thing i saw was 6 pinball machines on display. I spent a few hours playing

Sadly, the food was cold and the draft beer was unavailable. The mixed drinks were also inconsistent. The arcade looks like it has a good selection and the Futpool was really fun. The place is still relatively new. I'll give them another try in a few months.

Jeremy and Tom were incredibly welcoming and hilarious. My boys and I had so much fun playing the games and are looking forward to all the new attractions they have coming like Lazer tag, roller derby and the escape rooms.

This is my second time visiting because I wanted to give it another chance. The service here is horrible they are shortstaffed I need to hire more people as soon as possible. One bartender and no servers when there are 50 people inside your building is not acceptable. I don't know how many people you have in the kitchen but it took over an hour to get a burger. The food arrives cold which is even worse. I hope this place to get staffed fully and figures out whatever is going on. But I will not be returning

Loved how kind the staff were my kids had a ball they did not want to leave the food was good especially the wings its a nice relaxing setting reminds me of david busters but for kids. I would definitely go again????

The manager was great and very helpful. The staff was friendly and my family of four had an awesome time playing games, laser tag, and rollerskating.

We love coming here! Whether it's for adult fun or family time, they got something for everyone. Great staff as well and decent prices. We love the new changes

Very Dirty. Chairs not pushed back in by employees, floors were dirty. After tables were cleared you could still see streaks and crumbs. Made to feel like an inconvenience by the waitress. Waited what seem like a half hour for the bill, but instead of being given a receipt, we had to get up to walk across the place to pay. Never asked if we wanted refills on drinks. Mobile ordering site and menu had varying food descriptions. Very loud.The staff was unproffesional instead of cleaning or waiting on guests

Love the new additions but miss the bowling Lanes. They also do raffles throughout the day . I won pizza and a gulf game for four free. Someone also won a switch.

DO NOT COME HERE!!!!! Incredibly expensive. We paid $20 and my nephew played 7-8 games in 20 minutes. Games cost anything from $1 - $4 but the machines label them as points so a low 15 points is actually $1.50 for the game. Absolutely ridiculous

Absolutely love it!!! Such a fantastic place to eat and have fun. The staff was extremely polite and engaging with our group. Will definitely be coming back for more

Great staff, and great food. We held a pool tournament at this venue and the tables were good. The staff worked with us and accommodated us. I'd recommend this place for events!!
