Quick info
About Roxy Ball Room Manchester Arndale
Roxy Ball Room Manchester Arndale is a bar in Manchester at Unit R3, one of two Roxy bars in the city. Crazy pool, a game exclusive to Roxy, sits alongside ten pin bowling and shuffleboard, so the games share one roof with the bar. The team explains how each game works and sets players up on their game. Some games need to be booked in advance, and pool and darts are booked by the hour. Food and drinks can be ordered at the bar or from your table, and signature cocktails are served. Security checks ID at the door.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers come mainly for the range of games, with pool, crazy pool and darts named most, and one couple said the hour-long sessions never felt rushed. Staff are the close second theme. Several describe them as friendly, and one server is credited with keeping a large work group's orders straight. Food and cocktails draw praise too, with Electric Feel singled out as a signature drink. The caveats are specific. One reviewer was refused entry by security after an ID check, and the booking was cancelled. A refund was promised, but no confirmation or receipt arrived, so they phoned to check. Another waited a long time for drinks on a busy Thursday evening with only one person on the bar. One calls the venue quite expensive for longer stays or multiple activities, and one says some games need booking in advance. Staff explain how each game works, set groups up and leave them to it, and food and drinks can be ordered at the table.

“So many games to choose! It cam get busy and crowded but you need to book some games in advance. The hospitality was great. You can order food and drinks from your table or you can go to the bar.”

“We had the best cocktails served by our mate Yuvan. Everyone should give it a try especially if it’s made by Yuvan 😁”

“Roxy Ball Room is a really fun place with a great range of activities to choose from, making it a good option for a group day or night out. There’s plenty to keep you entertained, and the staff are always really friendly and helpful. The venue has a modern feel, with a good atmosphere and a great selection of food and drinks available. Everything feels well looked after, and there’s a good variety of games and activities to suit different groups. The only downside is that it can be quite expensive, especially if you’re staying for a while or doing multiple activities. However, the overall experience is enjoyable and it’s a great place to visit for something a bit different. Overall, a really entertaining venue with friendly staff, good facilities and plenty to do.”

“We had a work event here last week and everyone had a blast! The games are great and the atmosphere here was really good. Kat was a great server, dealing with such a large group and keeping all their orders staight. There was only one person on the bar and it was quite busy (thursday evening) which meant there was quite a long wait for drinks at times.”
