This year, my friends & I decided to throw our birthday party at Carnival. However, we did bowling at Bowlmor first, and took the party on up, so we didn't have to climb any of those stairs that people here are talking about, aside from the 1 flight of stairs from the bowling alley floor up to Carnival. Because we had a long wait for our bowling lanes (1.5 hours), we were able to get the bowling desk to provide my party with wristbands entitling us to free entry to Carnival. Those wristbands saved came in handy since we told out guests Carnival would be a $5 cover. That night they decided to up the cover to $10, but they did include entry+coat check+5 game booth tickets, so it was actually a good deal. Carnival was very fun, but make sure you have lots of money on hand if you really want to have fun without going broke. It's a cute place for a date when it's too cold to go to a real carnival. Special drinks were about $14. I had the blue cotton candy whatever it's called, which was yummy & my glass was even topped with a fluff of cotton candy. The games were cute, and I loved the decor! I loved that there were different areas to hang out in, and tons of activities for people like me who get bored at lounges quickly. Also great places to take pictures ;) I wouldn't mind going again, but it is pricey.

Went last Friday. Not so impressed with the looks of things (except my crew, of course). The upstairs was awkward but the down stairs was bumpin'. DJ Messkid was fantastic. I danced my ass off. I'd go back.

A little too euro-trashy and night-clubby for my taste, but the drinks are good and the bathrooms are pretty neat (and really, when can you ever say THAT about a bar?!). I also love the cushy benches on wheels (although they tend to get in the way towards the end of the night with everyone moving them around) and the music's usually not too bad.
