Reviews for POP ROC in Rochester, NY
A delightfully eclectic and unapologetically pop culture brunch spot. Lots of fun with great staff and inventive food options.... Treated ourselves to a flight of bacon on our recent visit and can't wait to return. Read more
Great atmosphere! Great food and drink! We love the Pokémon events they hold. Great family time!
Honestly, I feel bad leaving a 1 star on any business, but I would like others to be aware and not waste their time or... experience the same disappointment that I did. Hopefully the owners will take this information constructively. First I'llstart with the good- it's a fun concept and the decor is cute. That's about it for good unfortunately. Walking in there weremany empty tables that hadn't been bussed, and it looked dirty. We waited maybe 10min to get seated, even though there were onlya few people actually seated, which was the first red flag, we should have walked out at that point. It was clear the staff wasoverwhelmed and confused despite not being that busy. Again we waited maybe another 10-15min for the server to come back andtake our drink order, which when it came wasn't right. Then the food. We waited over 45min for our food to arrive despite only3 other tables. When looking around the other tables looked upset. All of the staff remained in the kitchen for some reason.When we did receive our food it was terrible, and clearly just microwaved frozen food. The bread on the breakfast Sandwich wasstale the bacon "flight" was three pieces over soggy over cooked bacon that tasted the same and the French toast was clearlyjust store bought frozen and microwaved. No one came to ask how our food was, no one came to ask if we'd like a drink refill.Nothing. After being there for 1.5 hrs in total wait time, we went to the bar to just ask to pay and leave without eating thefood, because at this point we just wanted to leave. Hopefully, the staff take the review constructively. I wouldn't recommendthis place to anyone or go back unless there were significant changes. Read more
Order grit cheese and taste soap. Food is not that great. Cereal bowl is good! Crazy energy drink is so sweet and interesting... taste. So different. Two stars because of some food turn me off. Read more
Great experience and service! Our kids enjoyed the food and the atmosphere! We will definitely be back!
The food was sinfully perfect. The nerdy decor is pretty great,too. I had the cinnamon roll waffle with maple syrup, icing, and... cinnamon toast crunch. My husband had the brunch Burger with the hash. Both were euphorically good. I recommend this place toanyone. Soooo good. The ONLY reason I didn't give it five stars was the service. We showed up 30 minutes before closing and thewaitress tried to turn us away. The owner or manager called us back saying they were happy to have us. The waitress was visiblynot happy to serve us. (She was very unhappy when another group came in 10 minutes before closing and the manager also satthem.) Read more
