2. AMC Theaters

We went out to see a current-run movie at this theater this past weekend. The theater was nice and clean and did offer the newly-in-fashion recliner seats. The parking lot was also large enough to handle all cars, and everything else (except the price of the food-and-drink at the concession stand) worked well. They have online ticket sales as well, so I could not think of a single improvement to recommend. This is a great theater.

My 6-year old loves the Museum of Play so we try to visit it once or twice a year. I always aim to visit during a week day when the museum is not so busy, but that is not always the case. This time we...MoreThank you for taking the time to provide such a thoughtful review. We are delighted to hear that you were able to enjoy all of our exhibits. We hope you will be back soon!
4. Ontario Mall Antiques at Irondequoit

Reviewed By Izzy325 - Rochester, New York
You definitely want to leave yourself at least 1-2 hours to take in this antique co-op. Like any antique store, prices are high. I've negotiated on most items though. Staff not the friendliest. That's an issue for me. I shouldn't be thanking YOU for spending MY money.
If you can deal with uninterested and curt staff, then give Ontario Mall Antiques a shot. They also have a large co-op in the Farmington / Canandaigua, NY area. Staff is more friendly and helpful at that location.
5. Mount Hope Cemetery
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 410 reviews
Mount Hope, dedicated in 1838, is America's first municipal Victorian Cemetery. Set in a picturesque landscape shaped by retreating glaciers, the cemetery contains priceless pieces of art and rare horticultural specimens. It is the final resting place of many dignified and internationally known individuals, including Susan B. Anthony and Frederick Douglass, and is on the National Park Services National Underground Railroad Network to Freedom. Mount Hope is listed in the New York State Register of Historic Places and National Register of Historic Places as part of the Mt. Hope/Highland Preservation District, featuring 83 mausoleums, soaring Egyptian obelisks, a Florentine cast-iron fountain, two stone chapels in the Gothic Revival style, a Moorish gazebo, a Victorian Gothic gatehouse, and infinitely varied tombstones marking 350,000 graves across 196 acres.

What a beautiful old cemetery, the first of this type, with winding roads and walking paths. The gravesites, statues and landscaping are all interesting, but the best part is the way people today are using it for walks, exercise (we saw a yoga class outside one building), and general enjoyment. Gravesites of Susan B. Anthony and Frederick Douglass are here, among others. The map could be better marked -- we accidentally drove down a lane that was non-motorized only. Without signs posted, or any indication on map, it was impossible to realize til we got to bottom of hill where posts preventing a vehicle from entering were located.
6. Knucklehead Craft Brewing

Reviewed By Swash9021 - Webster, New York
Local individuals opened this business and it has become a very popular meeting place. Their craft selections are excellent and now that the kitchen is open there is even more reason to visit. Very friendly atmosphere with tables and chairs or leather sofas to retreat to if the bar is not your style. Be sure to ask about the fireplace history!
7. McAvoy Memorial Park
Overall Ratings
4 based on 3 reviews
Reviewed By Larry W - Rochester, New York
McAvoy Park is a wonderful sports facility located on the north side of Rochester (in Irondequoit). It is probably best know for having such a large area (covering several soccer and softball fields) that is entirely covered in artificial "turf," which most kids are not used to playing on. It can be configured into either softball of soccer fields, depending on the time and the schedule. If you do visit for a game, you will not have to bring a folding chair, as there are stands present for all the fields. However, beware, as it is often very windy there, so bring along a jacket, or a blanket to cover you. The facilities are all very nice though, and it includes indoor bathrooms and a snack bar. Two thumbs up!

9. Helmer Nature Center

Reviewed By Larry W - Rochester, New York
I had never heard of Helmar Nature Center before, so I was quite surprised by what we found during our visit. We actually went there because our daughter had a soccer tournament in the athletic fields inside the park. However, we were even more surprised to find a beautiful nature park encompassing 45 acres of land and woods, with hiking trails leading in various direction through the woods and around some beautiful marches. There are lots of birds and other wildlife back in there, and many people have spoken of seeing deer as well. It is unique because it is so close to being inside the City of Rochester, and yet it gives you the feel of being out in the woods. It is really nice, and I do recommend it.
One warning about this place, though; dogs and other pets are NOT permitted inside, and groups must provide advance notice of your visit. Check out there website before going to get all the details.
