OS NYC
2023 Nov 12
Existing as a rarity within the city, OS NYC offers an incredibly relaxed and quiet public environment throughout most of its opening hours. I've never felt more relaxed in the city, as little foot traffic is present inside with most visitors being silently invested in their personal time here. In short, this site is a conglomeration of a gaming and internet cafe, public lounge, and bar which all combine to provide a delightful atmosphere.
With a focus on gaming, its day passes are affordable with monthly passes even more so, with only four days spent of the monthly pass besting the value of four individual days. Comprising the machine library, dozens of PCs and numerous modern gaming consoles are present, with most already having popular games already pre-loaded. Personal accounts can also be accessed on OS NYC's machines. Regularly, tournaments are also held for various multiplayer games.
Alongside machines, a streamer booth, a collection of physical tabletop games, and a kitchen & bar are present.

Chinatown Fair Family Fun Center
2023 Nov 12
With a focus on racing, rhythm, ticket-collecting, and novelty type games, Family Fun Center offers a good variety of machines. There is a large focus on two-player games, so visiting here as a couple or even a small group is ideal.
At times, prices seem affordable such as in regards to their numerous dance machines, but in many other circumstances credits are spent much too fast as required credit amount to play is high.

Restocked
2023 Nov 10
With a focus on footwear, Restocked also has a limited supply of apparel toward the back. But, regarding its focus, footwear styles vary, consisting of athletic, fashion-centric, and street types of shoes. Here, it seemed obvious that inventory was overpriced for most shoppers, and the quality of items didn't always seem as high as they should be, and especially so considering shelf prices.
No one seemed to be interested that my party visited, with none of the three workers acknowledging us.

Hour Children's "Fancy" Thrift
2023 Nov 10
Offering a limited variety of merchandise and apparel due to its inventory size, Hour Children's largely exists as a refuge for those with diminished budgets truly in need of bare essentials. As the name somewhat jokingly suggests based on the quotations surrounding "fancy," it is anything but so, although there is nothing wrong with that. Inventory seems to be based on donations alone, so it is heartening to see the local community indirectly give back to their neighbors.
Buffalo Exchange
2023 Nov 09
Stocked with an expansive inventory, there is no shortage of apparel to rummage through for one in the hopes to come across a unique item perfect for their wardrobe. On that note, this store is very much a second-hand used clothing store. While item quality is high as condition was never an issue relating to items I skimmed through, Buffalo Exchange leaves no question that the store prioritizes more modern items, many of which lack any interesting style or flair. With that established, it was disappointing to see much of their inventory seeming overpriced.
