“We are excited to introduce our high energy fun experience to guests of Resorts World New York City – from our floor to ceiling candy wall to our full service cafe, Sugar Factory American Brasserie at Resorts World New York City will keep guests coming back for more,” said Sugar Factory Partner, Larry Rudolph.
Sugar Factory at Resorts World New York City will be located at the porte cochère entrance to the resort. The 218-seat restaurant dining room is a contemporary rendition of an old Paris brasserie bar featuring hot air balloon banquettes, café seating, floral lined walls, two large white illuminated canopy trees, and an impressive DJ booth. A private dining area with a stand alone cocktail bar will complete the room, with an additional 14 bar seats for guests to enjoy. Upon entrance, diners will be greeted by a life-size, instagrammable flower wall with neon wall art, and a glamorous dining space including interactive experiences.
The expansive retail confectionery will feature Sugar Factory’s signature floor-to-ceiling candy wall with more than 50 types of sweet treats, including a selection of novelty and bulk candy like the brand’s world-famous Couture Pops.
