At a glance
Roxy Ball Room York The Stonebow is a games-led bar at Stonebow House, positioned in the city centre. The venue combines drinks, food and a broad selection of social activities, creating a lively setting for groups looking to spend time together rather than simply sit at a table.
The games range from familiar bar favourites to Roxy’s more unusual formats. American pool, ping pong, shuffleboard, beer pong and four-way beer pong offer competitive options for groups, while tech darts, duck pin bowling, batting cages and ice-free curling add different challenges. Karaoke is available in a private booth, making it suitable for groups who prefer a dedicated space for singing. Air hockey is also part of the line-up.
Crazy pool is the venue’s distinctive activity. It combines elements of crazy golf with pool, using a play area designed around obstacles and changing shots. The format suits groups wanting something less conventional, while the more familiar pool, darts and table games provide an easier starting point for a casual session.
Food and drinks sit alongside the activities, with the venue designed around a relaxed bar atmosphere and shared entertainment. Live sport is also shown on screens, covering fixtures across football, boxing, rugby and motorsport when scheduled. That makes the space adaptable, whether the focus is a booked activity, a sporting event or a social drink with a game included.
The venue works particularly well for birthdays, team gatherings, student groups and other occasions where several people want to take part at the same time. Activities can be combined within one booking, allowing a group to move between different games rather than choosing a single format for the whole visit. Group sizes vary by activity, and some options have their own capacity limits, so the booking details should be checked before arrangements are made.
Roxy Ball Room York The Stonebow has a playful, competitive character without being limited to experienced players. Pool, ping pong and karaoke are accessible choices for a relaxed outing, while tech darts, curling, batting cages and crazy pool offer more structured challenges. Its Stonebow House setting also places the venue within easy reach of central York’s shops, bars and attractions.
