“The licensing application is the final step for us to hopefully open a gaming hall for the city and bring our unique range of competitive socialising games.”
According to the licensing application, Roxy Ball Room York will operate from 10 am to 11 pm from Monday to Wednesday, from 10 am to midnight from Thursday to Saturday, and until 10:30 pm on Sundays.
Councillors have granted an alcohol licence to Roxy Ball Room. Roxy Leisure’s representatives CEO Matt Jones said: “The occupant that operated before us was a nightclub. Nightclubs operate differently to how we do.
“They tend to fuel people with as much alcohol as possible. I can assure you we are much better operators and have run much better management teams. We care.”
