Prudential Center Arena

Nice arena… some of the security people think that they’re state troopers and will make you feel like a criminal.

Went to NJ Devils game. Ordered food from Bayonne section 101. Two Nathan’s hot dogs, charbroiled burger, chicken tenders, fries, and zucchini crisps.
My daughter opened her hot dog to add condiments, just to find a bite had been taken out of it, prior to serving it to us.
We went back to show them and request a new hot dog.
They acted as if we were in the wrong. I calmly explained had we taken the bite, we would’ve continued eating. Disgusting.
My husband, who likes Nathan’s hot dogs, said it had no flavor and was akin to warm bologna.
My charbroiled burger was overly done to point of dry all the way through. It had a half a slice of cheese, and a half a piece of rubbery bacon.
At that point, I wanted to go back and DARE the to take a bite of the burger.
Waste of $ 50.00 on food.
Will go to more Devils games, but will NEVER eat at a Bayonne again.
Would give it no stars if possible.

This venue is clean and the food isn’t too expensive as far as stadium-​food goes (pretty big burger and chips for $ 10 upstairs). I always have a great time watching the Devils games, since it’s easy for Flyers and Rangers fans to commute here for the cheaper tickets. And up in the upper decks things get wild! Everyone is so pumped up there. I wish the staff would do a better job of watching the fans though, a fight almost broke out in our section because a girl wouldn’t sit down. It was pretty hilarious, though.
That said, I paid as much for parking ($ 30) as I did for my ticket, which I think is ridiculous. And beyond that, the area the arena is in is not very nice. I wouldn’t come here for an event except for the Devils games, but as a hockey arena it is nice.
Escalators are hidden away, though!

Selfie sticks not allowed — but website & tickets don’t inform anyone. Teens then face aggressive staff who confiscate them & do not offer any way of retrieving. One could think it was a nice income for security if one were to
Think about it.

Love this venue. They make entering and exiting so quick. Great food and beverage choices. Always clean. Great concerts!

We saw Pitbull & Enrique Inglesias in concert here last weekend. They have lots of staff walking around with signs saying «how may I help you» and they were actually helpful! We had floor seats right near the stage. The location of the seats were great. The size of the seats were small. There was an obese woman sitting in front of us who took up half the seat next to her. If I had paid $ 350 for that seat I’d be pissed! If you are staying at the Hilton Penn Station, don’t pay for concert parking. There is an indoor walkway that takes you directly between both points. We really enjoyed the show. Sadly Security allowed a lot of people to be up against the stage who didn’t pay for floor seats. They should do a better job of keeping people in the right areas.

Saw The Eagles. They put on a great show but next time I’ll go to the Garden. Parking was expensive and I encountered the most rude parking attendant in Green 5 parking. Never again! !

It’s a very nice hockey area. We came to see the Bruins on the final game of the season. The fans were ok, there were a few that gave us dirty looks over calls the refs made and said that was a crap call, your team is so lucky. But they weren’t rude, like in other areas. We had club seats, where the food and drinks were free, the whole game, which is cool, I’ve been to a lot of other areas and have never gotten that offered to us.
It is a nice clean area too. It was also cool to see Marty’s last game, if it is going to be his last game. I’m not a Devils fan, but to see someone as great as he is play his last game is cool, and I felt lucky. Would I go back? I’m not sure, my husband and I try to go to different areas every year, unless it’s in Boston.
I am glad it was a 3:00 game and we had a shuttle to and from our hotel, because I heard it is a scarey area. I thought it was ok, but it was still daylight out when we left the area. I would say, yeah go and see a game there.

I love the Prudential Center!!! I came here most recently for a Devils game where my sister and I got on the jumbotron woooo = famous! It was my first time seeing «The Rock» decked out in red, but it really brought me back, and made me miss frequenting Seton Hall Pirate basketball games. I def. need to get to more sporting events because I miss the roar of the crowd and the silly games. The place was pretty packed.
The Prudential Center had the fire and ice lounges, which are pretty. Apparently when we were there for the game it was $ 1.50 hot dog day. They NEED to advertise that better.
The surrounding area is a little scary at night time. We walked a few blocks to a $ 15 parking garage because we navigated to the actual agency by mistake. I did notice however, that there were some really nice looking bars outside that I’ve never noticed before. Next time I’ll def check one out to pregame!
Go Pirates! Go Devils!

The arena is new, fresh, and clean. There are TONS security guards/​police all around the place which is good to know and necessary in Newark.
The Devils, no matter what their record is, can never fill an arena; I wish they would let people up-​fill the seats.
My largest complaint is, the cash sales. The only beer you can buy with a credit card are a few budlite-​ish crappy domestics. Where you have $ 8+ plus beers in a major arena, at least accept credit when you are robbing me!

If you’re coming from Manhattan it’s actually really easy to get to Prudential (either through the NJ Transit or the Path). It’s a very short walk from the stadium. No seat is a bad seat at Prudential. I paid $ 50 for a ticket to see my first hockey game. Beers are $ 9 (and $ 8 for the watered down stuff). They have SO MANY options for beers, which was great, because I got to drink Shock Top and Goose Island. Two wins for me. Dino BBQ is right next door and hockey + beer followed by ribs… that’s a 5 star day.

I’ve been here a few time for Net’s games after they moved from the IZOD Center and before the move to Brooklyn. The best thing was that you could get free or almost free tickets to most Nets games since the team stunk and the arena was out of the way. Luckily I lived Downtown NYC and the path train would take you directly from WTC to Newark and it was a very short walk over. The last couple times my wife and I discovered the walkway that will keep you in the warmth of the indoors from Newark Penn Station almost all the way to the Prudential Center.
The Devil’s still play here (even though there’s no hockey this year) and the lower level seats are amazing. Also the last game I went to we had great lower level seats to see the Net’s vs. Knicks and they have great, huge chicken wings for less than $ 10. Honestly one of the best food deals I’ve ever seen at a sports events.
The only reason it gets lower than 4 stars is that the upper level seats suck, the food choices on the upper level are not as good as the lower level, and the walk back from a game to Newark Penn Station is a little sketchy but safe in a group.

Pretty nice hockey arena. Not a big fan of the neighborhood or the parking situation outside but the inside is nice, new and clean.

Something stinks in Newark and the stench is coming from the Prudential Center and in particular Centerplate and the Devils. Obviously talks have broken off and the only reason is GREED. I wouldn’t agree to the Devils demand of a $ 10,000.00 kick back. They called it a partnership I call it a kick back. Centerplate didn’t renew my contract because they didn’t want to share the revenue. They wanted it all for themselves. So if you go to the game and get an italian hotdog remember that Shit is Centerplate’s version not Jimmy Buff’s. If you want to complain you can reach Todd Andrews of Centerplate at 908−906−9351 or Dana Fabrikant of the Devils at 973−757−6060. Its too bad it had to come to this but that is the way of todays world. But remember this Karma is a bitch.
