Been there three times in less than a year! Twice last year, once this year! I plan to go again a couple more times by October. I love it there! It’s my favorite place to be! I went on the Cyclone three times and it’s scary but so fun!!! I’m afraid of upside down rollercoasters so I avoid those. I’ve never tried a Nathan’s hot dog though because I myself am not a fan of hot dogs either.
I LOVED Coney Island. There is such a laid back atmosphere and lots of fun to be had in the sun. There is also a huge historic element, and easily accessible by subway. I don't really have an ocean beach where I come from so it was really nice to experience.
The aquarium is the best. It didn't used to be so expensive (true of most NYC things). But it's still a great trip, followed up by a walk by the ocean. Perfect summer day.
I grew up in Brooklyn In the 1950’ and 60’s. Coney Island was always the best place to go for summer fun! Later in the 70’s I went there with my husband!
I've not been on the Wonder Wheel since the 70s. The first time I got on the Wonder Wheel, I rode the swinging car and I was not prepared! I really miss Coney Island🎢🎡... nothing like it.
I miss the old Coney, that’s when Coney Island was Coney Island. I remember that old thunderbolt rollercoaster that wasn’t even fully operational & I don’t even know why it haven’t or ever reopened. Back then Coney Island has a lot of abandoned structures, shattered bottle glasses on the sand & a lot homeless it was like a ghost town like in the movie The Warriors it was a different look compared to now since right now it isn’t what it used to be. Back then we used to play football with an empty soda bottle at the beach & after we went to take a break from the sun underneath the boardwalk & we felt the cool while we was underneath the planks & hear people’s footsteps from above us. I always wanna know the reason why the boardwalk underneath is filled with sand & it’s fenced up & closed down
Coney Island has been my Disney World since 1972. My family and I would go crab 🦀 fishing at The now defunct pier. Later we’d go to the beach and at night we’d ride the rides at AstroLand ( Luna Park). My fave ride was and still is The Cyclone.....🤪 My teenage sons swear it’s the best place on Earth after Disney. Thanks for the video!!
I still remember the Stauch Bath that has The Warriors imprint on the wall & I still can’t believe it got demolished in the early 90s because of a fire incident. I could just imagine if it was still up to this day & generation as a landmark. I miss the old Coney, that’s when Coney Island was Coney Island.

you think 10 years is long.....born and raised here and i didn't ride the wonder wheel until i was in my 20s! lmao but that was only bc it broke down once and people had to be rescued, i think some time in the 90s, so i was traumatized lol. i also rode the cyclone when i was in my 20s and it gave me whiplash! never again lol growing up coney island was my disneyworld since my parents couldnt afford a trip to disney, so this video was very nostalgic!
The Coney Island Brewing Co. is worth a visit. Great craft beers brewed on the premisses and they give guided tours of their brewing facility. Only a few moments walk from the subway station.
Hey, thanks for putting me in your video! I DO enjoy my job and it's a blast working at Coney Island as there's always a random cast of characters as well as an overall fun vibe there every day. Great VLOG and great NYC coverage! Sincerely, The Guy Dancing on the Thunderbolt Music Ride at Deno's Wonder Wheel :)
I grew up in Brighton Beach. Coney was my playground as a kid. Playing hooky and that delicious Nathans and the games and rides. Still the best fries anywhere.

OMG! Haven’t been there is a million years. What fun and wonderful memories. Look, Adriana kissed a frog and now has Prince Charming. ❤️. My family used to rent a bus to go. Made driving easier. I can smell the Nathan’s hot dogs from here. Love them. I have never been to the Mermaid Parade but friends have and showed pictures. Hysterical!! Nothing but fun in Coney Island. Thanks Jon and Adriana.
When I was a kid (60s-70s), my mom would never let me go to Coney island. The only time I went out there as a kid was to go to the aquarium on a school field trip. Now that I don't live in the area, I rarely make it out of Manhattan when I'm up there.
I live right by Coney Island and I have been there many times, honestly if you go you should stay away from all of the food places including Nathan’s because they are severely overpriced and nothing is really too great. The games and everything are fun but expensive as well. The cyclone is around 10$ to ride once and should definitely be done once in your life. The thunderbolt rollercoaster is very overpriced and not worth it in my opinion. I love Coney Island but if you are looking for amazing food you should definitely stop in to L&B Spumoni Gardens which is about 10-15 min away by car. They have the best Sicilian pizza in all of New York and amazing Italian Spumoni Ices for a relatively cheap price. Coney Island can be very fun just watch out because the prices can be pretty staggering
Why're there so many headscarfs around?? It's HORRIBLE!!! Is this ur famously praised Democrat policy?? They wouldn't be there anymore, if _T._ would've stayed president!! In American videos I always noticed and admired the fact, that you DO NOT see these odious persons everywhere around like here in GER!!! Appearantly, that's not the case anymore since you don't keep voting for Republicans!! That's BAD!!!
I 1st rode Coney island cyclone when I was 3 years old and I loved it. Now I am a coaster Fanatic. Lived in New York most of my life.. Greatest place in the world
We’re just back home in England from NYC. Watched lots of your vlogs with interest thanks. December definitely not the best time to visit C.I. Wish we could see it in the Summer. Had the Nathan’s hot dog which is ok but not that special to be honest. Loved the history of this fun area. We really felt safe and welcomed in NYC.
Nice video. I am from France. Been To nyc many times but never Coney Island. Thank you sharing your experience. And the extra recommendations are great.
I had fun and I got a frog!!!.... Hahahaha I'm dying with your comments, sorry I was the one that put ketchup on my hot dog, we eat them like that in Mexico... loool
Less than 1 month before I make that trip to NYC!!! Thanks all the vids you, Tal and Jacob have provided. I am just a little worried navigating around.
Years ago, I knew a girl who lived in that neighborhood. Whenever she had a bad day at work, she'd get off the subway and ride the Cyclone. Good therapy, for sure! P.S., the second season of She's Gotta Have It on Netflix features the rides of Coney Island in one of the episodes. So fun!
The NY Aquarium at Coney Island has the new multi million dollar Shark Reef. I believe it’s the second largest in the nation and it’s spectacular!The sharks 🦈 swim above you and all around you(in an enclosed environment of course)!
Coney Island Freak Show right near the boardwalk is a fun time! Also, the Thunderbolt is a solid thrill ride, smooth and has some airtime. The hotdogs are exactly what you said, hotdogs. Nothing special. But you can get some great pizza for a better price down the street away from the beach.
The music was always pumping at Coney Island. I have not been to any other amusement park where they play music like that. And I always refer back to Coney Island.
Saw you at Nathan‘s with your camera that day but wasnt sure if it was really you...now I know haha! Just watched all of your videos before our trip to NYC.
I was there a few weeks ago and ate at that original Nathan's. I had me a cheese dog and cheese fries. Luckily the lines went really fast. I never realized how cool Coney Island is. I only went there once when I was, like, eight. I didn't go on the rides since I am not into roller coasters, but walking the boardwalk was nice. I want to hit up the Aquarium on my next visit.
took the subway from the financial district to the island. walked the boardwalk, cranked a few Nathan's dogs and had a beer. felt like a local and it felt great.
Lived in Trump Village when Coney Island was at its lowest point. I now live out of town and haven't been there in years. It looks great. But you better bring a wad of cash. Man is it expensive! $4.75 a hot dog? Geez......
I go to the original Nathan's whenever I go to a Cyclones game. $4.75 for a hot dog might seem expensive, but believe me, it's worth it! Whenever I go, I get 2 chili cheese dogs and an order of chili cheese fries.
I love Coney Island. I ride the Wonder Wheel, the Cyclone, and the Carousel every year. Stop to eat at Nathans, Grimaldi's, and La Famiglia for Italian Icees.
I had the same problem at the original nathans when I went there a month ago lol. Waited 15 min and the line had moved a foot at most. Ended up also visiting the one on the boardwalk
I still remember the Stauch Bath that has The Warriors imprint on the wall & I still can’t believe it got demolished in the early 90s because of a fire incident. I could just imagine if it was still up to this day & generation as a landmark. I MISS the old Coney, that’s when Coney Island was Coney Island.

I always wanna know the reason why the boardwalk underneath is filled with sand & it’s fenced up & closed down
I was in Coney Island two weeks ago for my first ever visit to the ocean! It was fairly cool when we got there and I think we caused a minor scandal chasing each other through the waves! We had fish burgers and hot dogs and you are right, they were just fish burgers and hot dogs but we were eating them on Coney Island and that makes all the difference!
I'm native New Yorker, and I can tell you the best thing about Coney is it's accessibility, the F train will get you there. If you drive get there early cause finding parking is really hard. The beach itself is horrible, the sand just sticks to you like for days, the water is dirty, and they actually cleaned up the beach but it's still filthy. There isn't much on the boardwalk and it's expensive as all hell. If you just want to see the ocean or go to the aquarium it's a easy trip. But if you really need your beach fix you can do much better than Coney. Tip: the aquarium has free entrance on certain week days usually Tuesday, or Wednesday call ahead they'll let you know which day.
RECOMMENDATION: For the runners out there in Barr world... Run the Brooklyn 1/2 Marathon (largest 1/2 marathon in world). Starts in Prospect Park, Brooklyn and ends at Coney Island. Afterward, it's a big party and worth the wait for NATHAN'S HOT DOGS AND A COLD BEER. I love that hot dog !!!!!! Barr must be a burger dude.
Ferris wheel and Cyclone are definitely must do's, do not pay for Screaming Eagle or Steeplechase they are cloned attractions that can be found at multiple amusement parks
Nathan’s in my opinion isn’t that bad. But I would perfer the Nathan’s in the boardwalk. The prices are ok Also for students if you go towards the last day of school and show them your report card you can get a few free credits for rides

Jon I'm in Brooklyn right now and I'm going to Coney Island soon! Would be cool if I could run into you somewhere!!!
its my go to places! it reminds me of my home in nj and i just love it so much
Been there three times in less than a year! Twice last year, once this year! I plan to go again a couple more times by October.

Visited spring of 2014. Still hoping to go back to visit NYC again
So glad to see a RUclipsr in Coney Island. New York RUclipsrs hardly make it down there.
i went there

“It’s a hot dog” 🤣🤣
Food and Footprints I totally get it. Not a big fan of hotdogs either. Gotta be staving with no other options to get one
Boardwalk food is usually pretty crappy. I guess he was too polite to say "I could have cooked this in my microwave for a fraction of the price."
I didn’t know you & Adriana got married. Congrats to you & best wishes to Adriana!! 💋 👰 🎩
Thanks, was in February but was small.. big wedding in mexico coming up
@@HereBeBarr I guess my invitation got lost in the post did it.
I grew up in Brooklyn In the 1950’ and 60’s. Coney Island was always the best place to go for summer fun! Later in the 70’s I went there with my husband!
Another plus of a trip to Coney Island is all the good food in the neighborhoods nearby like Brighton Beach and Sheepshead Bay
Food and Footprints basically Russian food
I've not been on the Wonder Wheel since the 70s. The first time I got on the Wonder Wheel, I rode the swinging car and I was not prepared! I really miss Coney Island🎢🎡... nothing like it.

Glad you mentioned the aquarium. Also a few blocks away is one of the best pizzerias in New York - Totonnos.

Great call !
$4.75 a hot dog and the line is not moving for 30 minutes, wow. Can get a whole package of Nathan hot dogs for about $6 in supermarkets.
One of my favourite places in NYC, love this campy cheesy yet relaxing vibe. Will be there next week :)
:) Very campy and cheesy HAHAHAH

So true Luciano! I grew up near L& B. I moved out of NY a decade ago & when I visit it's the first spot I hit up. Still the best!
Luciano Messina L&B is a most stop 👍
The Wonder Wheel is also worth doing, it's one of only two eccentric ferris wheels on the planet the other being the Pixar Fun Wheel at DCA.
Why're there so many headscarfs around?? It's HORRIBLE!!! Is this ur famously praised Democrat policy?? They wouldn't be there anymore, if _T._ would've stayed president!!
In American videos I always noticed and admired the fact, that you DO NOT see these odious persons everywhere around like here in GER!!!

If ya broke just say dat lmao
If ur from NYC u dont swim in the ocean lol
If they only knew what's in that water. Yuck!!! I won't swim in any New York city beach. I suggest you don't either.🥺
Why?
Tonia Cournoyer it’s dirty.
Tonia Cournoyer nyc ain’t known for there beaches ya know.
Bruh Moment I heard why
You are my favorite NYC u tubber. I'm coming NY for the first time in my life this summer!!!!! Blessings 💞💞☺️
The scene where you guys walked out past the beach reminded me of the movie Requiem for a Dream
Hahah wow that's deep
Here Be Barr Haha. Always think of classic movies filmed there
I 1st rode Coney island cyclone when I was 3 years old and I loved it. Now I am a coaster Fanatic. Lived in New York most of my life.. Greatest place in the world

Now I regret going in the Winter 😂
Another great thing to do is the Coney Island Circus Sideshow. Always entertaining and it has the flavor of the old time sideshows, geekie but fun.
Ahh I missed it
Here Be Barr There’s always the next time.
Nice video. I am from France. Been To nyc many times but never Coney Island. Thank you sharing your experience. And the extra recommendations are great.
I had fun and I got a frog!!!.... Hahahaha I'm dying with your comments, sorry I was the one that put ketchup on my hot dog, we eat them like that in Mexico... loool
😂😂😂
Less than 1 month before I make that trip to NYC!!! Thanks all the vids you, Tal and Jacob have provided. I am just a little worried navigating around.
Thanks for the support, you'll be fine !!
I love Coney Island..loads of fun for sure
I'm really going on a binge of your videos. I learning more about my city and finding new things to do
I knew most of the things. Didn't know about the art. I like it. Seems like there is a message or messages in the artworks on the walls.
Off topic but i love the warriors
Definitely eyeing up Coney Island for this Sunday... Looks like I'm in for a treat this weekend 🙂
here be barr is the my favourite you tube channel
Trust me do not go in the water over there, I learned the hard way 😭😭
I go to Coney island for Brooklyn Cyclones Baseball.
The Brooklyn Cyclones are the 2019 NYPL Champions.
I Use to work at the NY Aquarium 1988- 1995.
the lady at 4:00 smoking her cig while you play the game lmaooooooo
hahahaha I have to go re-watch now
Here Be Barr FUNNY SHIT...
I was standing in front of you in the hot dog line. lol
Hahahah. It moved pretty fast.
Love the #TeamAdriana shirt
Ur face when u said 'it's a hot-dog " lol was like ' Geez I wait close to an hour for thiss...' seemed so disapointed lol.
The home of the warriors brilliant film have been to Florida twice but would love to visit New York and San Francisco
I live Blocks Away from The beginning of Coney Island
Years ago, I knew a girl who lived in that neighborhood. Whenever she had a bad day at work, she'd get off the subway and ride the Cyclone. Good therapy, for sure! P.S., the second season of She's Gotta Have It on Netflix features the rides of Coney Island in one of the episodes. So fun!
The NY Aquarium at Coney Island has the new multi million dollar Shark Reef. I believe it’s the second largest in the nation and it’s spectacular!The sharks 🦈 swim above you and all around you(in an enclosed environment of course)!
BEAUTIFUL ART
I would like to visit Coney Island one day. Great video. Cheers!
I was born in BedStuy Brooklyn raised in Coney Island .. Some of the best childhood memories.
Coney Island Freak Show right near the boardwalk is a fun time! Also, the Thunderbolt is a solid thrill ride, smooth and has some airtime. The hotdogs are exactly what you said, hotdogs. Nothing special. But you can get some great pizza for a better price down the street away from the beach.
Mark A. Drexler The Thunderbolt rollercoaster?
That’s long gone.
Living in queens the only local near by beach to go is Long Beach ! Take your friend there to experience a real quality beach
MajorMomentMedia You nailed it. Plus, you can take the Long Island RR right there.
I lived in Kew Gardens.
Craving an Italian ice now!
You actually put that in my head
The music was always pumping at Coney Island. I have not been to any other amusement park where they play music like that. And I always refer back to Coney Island.
I don't like rollercoasters either. Looks like you guys had a good time. I'm still waiting for the wedding. Lol. Thanks for sharing.
I live right near Coney Island Amusement park
did you know its the place where roller coasters were invented because of 'sins' ruclips.net/video/sQv7194eYQw/видео.html
Just found your channel and never been to NYC as from uk and amazing to see new york beach
Saw you at Nathan‘s with your camera that day but wasnt sure if it was really you...now I know haha! Just watched all of your videos before our trip to NYC.
I loved the frog. That's what modern hunting should look like ;)!!!
I'm following this guide to a
T.
here be barr is the best of you tube
I want to visit Coney Island
Smoked a blunt on the old ferris-
wheel. Also, herd a amazing house deejay on the boardwalk. Cool lil nyc getaway..
I was there a few weeks ago and ate at that original Nathan's. I had me a cheese dog and cheese fries. Luckily the lines went really fast. I never realized how cool Coney Island is. I only went there once when I was, like, eight. I didn't go on the rides since I am not into roller coasters, but walking the boardwalk was nice. I want to hit up the Aquarium on my next visit.
🔥
took the subway from the financial district to the island. walked the boardwalk, cranked a few Nathan's dogs and had a beer. felt like a local and it felt great.
Mark See lmao locals never go to coney sorry buddy
@@doc.l i find that very hard to believe. Most tourists go to warm weather spots for the beach. Not Brooklyn. I went for a hotdog.
Lived in Trump Village when Coney Island was at its lowest point. I now live out of town and haven't been there in years. It looks great. But you better bring a wad of cash. Man is it expensive! $4.75 a hot dog? Geez......
I know ...
I go to the original Nathan's whenever I go to a Cyclones game. $4.75 for a hot dog might seem expensive, but believe me, it's worth it! Whenever I go, I get 2 chili cheese dogs and an order of chili cheese fries.
I'd go to Conley island for the rides. I think their fun. My favorite ride is the spinning air plane ride.
Great video I am so excited to visit
I went to Coney Island a couple months ago and it was the most ghetto thing ever
I love Coney Island. I ride the Wonder Wheel, the Cyclone, and the Carousel every year. Stop to eat at Nathans, Grimaldi's, and La Famiglia for Italian Icees.
Legit made myself 2 hotdogs 😂
Always Coney Island
Please do a NYC meetup omg
Can you make another 10$ challenge plz I keep going back to your first 2 videos and watch it over and over
Good video. You gotta watch for the guy handing out BOGO coupons at the subway station for Nathan's hot dogs. OMG ketchup on a hotdog?
Awesome video. I love frogs too.
Sick vids bruh
I've always wanted to go to Coney Island
Am loving your vlogs from the uk am coming to nyc in August...
Thanks !
Looks great Jon. Just from a historical aspect it looks like it's worth a visit
I had the same problem at the original nathans when I went there a month ago lol. Waited 15 min and the line had moved a foot at most. Ended up also visiting the one on the boardwalk
I still remember the Stauch Bath that has The Warriors imprint on the wall & I still can’t believe it got demolished in the early 90s because of a fire incident. I could just imagine if it was still up to this day & generation as a landmark. I MISS the old Coney, that’s when Coney Island was Coney Island. I remember that old thunderbolt rollercoaster that wasn’t even fully operational & I don’t even know why it haven’t or ever reopened. Back then Coney Island has a lot of abandoned structures, shattered bottle glasses on the sand & a lot homeless it was like a ghost town like in the movie The Warriors it was a different look compared to now since right now it isn’t what it used to be. Back then we used to play football with an empty soda bottle at the beach & after we went to take a break from the sun underneath the boardwalk & we felt the cool while we was underneath the planks & hear people’s footsteps from above us. I always wanna know the reason why the boardwalk underneath is filled with sand & it’s fenced up & closed down
I wish kindly your 9lkh subscribers bro

I was in Coney Island two weeks ago for my first ever visit to the ocean! It was fairly cool when we got there and I think we caused a minor scandal chasing each other through the waves! We had fish burgers and hot dogs and you are right, they were just fish burgers and hot dogs but we were eating them on Coney Island and that makes all the difference!
I'm native New Yorker, and I can tell you the best thing about Coney is it's accessibility, the F train will get you there. If you drive get there early cause finding parking is really hard. The beach itself is horrible, the sand just sticks to you like for days, the water is dirty, and they actually cleaned up the beach but it's still filthy. There isn't much on the boardwalk and it's expensive as all hell. If you just want to see the ocean or go to the aquarium it's a easy trip. But if you really need your beach fix you can do much better than Coney. Tip: the aquarium has free entrance on certain week days usually Tuesday, or Wednesday call ahead they'll let you know which day.
Warriors turf and home ❤
RECOMMENDATION: For the runners out there in Barr world... Run the Brooklyn 1/2 Marathon (largest 1/2 marathon in world). Starts in Prospect Park, Brooklyn and ends at Coney Island. Afterward, it's a big party and worth the wait for NATHAN'S HOT DOGS AND A COLD BEER. I love that hot dog !!!!!! Barr must be a burger dude.
I am a burger dude 😂
Missed the bumper cars and the other rides in Coney Island
Yesterday I was there!!!!
I went Tuesday, it was gorgeous.
There is also fireworks every friday 9:45pm in the summer
I’ll pass on the hot dogs ,go on the dodgems and the roller coaster 👍👍👍
Been to Coney Island a few times, but never been on the rides, will definitely have to try the ferris wheel, and I probably would try the Cyclone.
Thanks Manny !
Ferris wheel and Cyclone are definitely must do's, do not pay for Screaming Eagle or Steeplechase they are cloned attractions that can be found at multiple amusement parks
Nathan’s in my opinion isn’t that bad. But I would perfer the Nathan’s in the boardwalk. The prices are ok
Also for students if you go towards the last day of school and show them your report card you can get a few free credits for rides
I’ve been there so much time
