Is This Your Business?
 

cruiser update 4/17/2008: This place went through a major bust a few years ago and the management had to remove all of the booths. They have since started taking baby steps toward making it the video peep/cruising mecca it once was. They have installed two walls of individual video banks. Each booth is separated by half-walls that go from your waist to the ceiling, leaving you exposed from the waist down. They also have a privacy curtain behind you, blocking you from the people wandering the aisle. So if you go into any booth and peek below the separation wall, you can see from one end of the store to the other and witness anything and everything that is going on in any of the booths on that wall.

The people working there have become a bit more aggressive about keeping people from "indiscretions." However, if you are discreet, you can at least receive or give a quick . Depending on who is working (and what kind of mood they're in), you can still have a pretty good time there. The workers are mostly cool, just spend money in the booths, don't flaunt what you're doing and you should be fine.


Previous description: Many booths in the back. No doors, you have to walk into an aisle and there is a booth to the side (you can't see what goes on from the hallway). Just whip it out and usually someone will do a with you or give you a blow job. Bring your own . I usually get a BJ 75% of the time without any problems. If someone comes into your area and you do not want them there, they are usually good about leaving.

  • The white dude with the acne in his face, doesn't work there any longer. He came into my work last week, searching around for stuff for work (day job). He told me that he quit. I asked why, and he told me that they were giving him too many hours for a Pt. Job. The owner wouldn't cut back, so he quite.

  • I thought this place had the booths taken down and replaced by cutains. Did they put walls back up?

    I sure do miss the OLD place.

  • Here's the deal. I'm one of those guys who drops $10, $15, $20 bucks in the machines while others hide in un-used booths until they get yelled at. It really ticks me off that I was kicked out of that place. I mean if you don't want patrons to f**k around, then put dividers between every booth. How stupid could they be. They leave two booths facing each other open (without a divider) but they don't expect something to go on???? That's really stupid. Unless they change their attitude, I won't be going here even if they lower the fee to $1. I'll find another place to get my hole pounded.

    Commented on 3/10/2009 11:38:59 AM

     
  • Now every other booth has a long divider so each booth would be open on one side only. Lots going on when I was there Friday and not a lot of probs from management other than the occasional yell to feed the meters. The $5 minimum has been reduced to $3.

    Commented on 3/9/2009 9:46:16 AM

     
  • Don't waste your time or your money!!! Certainly not worth the 5 bucks you have to drop to potentially get off......not from this area but will certainly look for someplace else next time i'm passing through.

  • hey galumph Don't think change in management will make much difference since it seems as if local law enforcement has this place in its sights. Too bad. This has happened before and then things loosened up a little. However, I doubt it will ever be the way it was in the 80's and early 90's.

  • I used to love this place.it had the best gh's when i was younger and the atmosphere was lax ..then all the busts started...the mayor wants to clean up that stretch of route 1, including this ABS...word to the wise...stay as far away as you can from here, or risk being busted !!!

  • I haven't been here in a year and decided to go when I was in New Jersey last week. I went at about 3pm last Tuesday.
    Very odd feeling going there since it used to be so good years ago.
    The worker came back every five minutes with a bright flashlight and he would pull back the shower-type curtains to make sure there was only one to a booth.
    Guys were in a hurry to get off but he kept interrupting.
    There were maybe 5 or 6 guys at the most when I was there.
    I had LOADS more fun at the adult book store in Hamilton the next day.

  • Leatherbboy - If there are any good cruising places in this part of the state, they are not listed here. All of the good ones have either in the past few years closed their doors or made radical changes to the booth areas. This place used to ROCK - so many fun nights here. But all of the places that I know about in Monmouth, Southeastern Middlesex and northern Ocean county are no longer really good or fun. Guys, are we missing any other cruising places that should be listed?

  • Guy's is there any cruise spots that's good anymore in New Jersey?

  • This place is a disaster for hooking up. It's supposed to be fun not a place where you have to keep your eye on the staff who's keeping their eye on you. Forget it; the place is no fun any more. Cross the Goethals and check out Nightcaps. Now that place definitely works. All sorts of guys there too.

    Commented on 12/20/2008 3:06:14 AM

     
  • Sad to hear that the place has changed so much. I have been going there for years, and always stopped by when I was back in town. Oh well, I guess all good things come to an end.

    Commented on 12/19/2008 4:11:32 AM

     
  • Well - this place was fun for a long time - maybe some day it will be fun again. It just sucks that another really good cruising place is gone. They are becoming rarer and rarer in the past 5 years.

  • Couple4athirdnj, I was there on Friday evening, just after the cops had pulled 2 guys out of there. They were still sitting outside with cuffs on. I went inside to see what was going on, and overheard the clerk calling the boss. He said the cops warned him that they will be back and continuing to arrest if they see anything other than watching movies. I'm sad to see this place fall. They must have pissed off the wrong person, and now are paying for it.

  • I went there tonight and I didn't leave my car. My friend who works there came to my car and told me don't go in. He told me that the cops showed up there again and now you can't do anything there. You can't either jo. I am going to start going back to Nitecaps in Staten Island.

    Commented on 12/10/2008 11:26:17 AM

     
  • Can anyone describe what this place looks like now? It has gone through a couple of transformations over the years. From individual booths with metal doors, then to booths with no doors so you could stroll in and out and join other guys (ahhh, that was a fun setup), to the half wall setup. What is the new setup? And yeah - not sure I like the $5/20min deal.

    THANKS!!!

  • I don't know what's up with this place? It's open but the setup sucks and it's still packed!??! I went sat afternoon, tons of guys but you can't play b/c it's WAY too open. I admit it would be hot to peak under the curtains and see 5 guys stroking some big thick meat, but that has yet to happen.

    IMHO your better off going to Moviethon on Staten Island, I did but apparently I was the only one with that idea since it was empty...

    So the good place was empty, the crappy one packed>>>

  • Was there today. New policy of $5.00 is a bit annoying. It's designed to keep activity down to a minimum since you're sort of captive after your $5 investment. I think there may be less channels as well. Pet peeve to management: If you're going to force 20 minute sessions, you need to keep the DVDs going. There were no fewer than 10 channels where the DVD was on the main menu. Go back there and hit the 'play' button every so often.

  • is this place open again since that accident?

    I have been to both Nite Caps, and Woodbridge....Nite Caps has a MUCH better set up, no one bugs you, and I have met a LOT more hot guys there. The booths are big enough for me on my knees with 2 guys standing up! ;-)

    Woodbridge is too risky, kinda get nervous there, management can be mean....seems not worth it

  • I heard from a buddy who has friends on the force that they are watching the place, looking to raid it. I was there about a month ago. There was one very masc guy with a short hair cut. Never touched himself. He watched other people, but did not touch anyone or himself. When he was in the booth he kept his arms folded. Sometimes you can just smell trouble. I would swear this guy was a cop.
