Frequently asked questions about POTOBOX
Is the photo booth at POTOBOX still working?
Yes, as far as we know. We last checked on Nov 3, 2026. If you turn up and it's out of order, tap "Report an issue" on this page so the next person doesn't waste a trip.
How much is a strip at POTOBOX, and can I pay by card?
The price is posted on the machine. Cash only — bring coins or small notes. Most analog booths in this range run a few pounds, euros or dollars a strip.
Is POTOBOX a real film photo booth or a digital one?
We list only analog booths, but we haven't confirmed the machine details for this one. If you've used it, tell us what it is.
Do I need to book, or can I just walk up to POTOBOX?
Just walk up. It's a coin-op booth, not a hire service — no booking, no attendant. If the venue is open, the booth is on.
How many photos do you get at POTOBOX, and how long does it take?
One strip of four shots. The machine takes the four in quick succession, then develops the strip on the spot — usually three to five minutes before it drops into the slot.
What time can I use the booth at POTOBOX?
11:00 AM – 10:00 PM Mon–Thu, 11:00 AM – 11:00 PM Fri and Sat and Sun. The booth is inside the venue, so those are the hours that matter.
How do I get to POTOBOX?
It's at 133-33 39th Ave, New York, NY. Use the map above for transit, walking or driving directions from wherever you are.
Can I get into POTOBOX with a wheelchair or a pram?
We haven't checked access at this venue. Classic booths have a fixed bench and a curtain, so the booth itself is a tight fit; the venue's own access is the thing to ask them about.
What if the booth at POTOBOX is out of order when I get there?
It happens — these machines are decades old. Scroll to "Nearest booths" in New York for the closest alternative, and tap "Report an issue" so we can flag it for everyone else.

About POTOBOX
POTOBOX in New York, United States features a walk-in vintage-style digital photo booth at 133-33 39th Ave. Visitor note: "If you are looking for a fun activity to do with friends during a hangout or before a party, this photo booth is the place to go!

POTOBOX is listed at 133-33 39th Ave, New York, NY, United States. This location operates a vintage-styled digital photo booth rather than a wet-chemistry darkroom machine.
The booth is currently listed as working, with published hours of Monday: 11:00 AM – 10:00 PM; Tuesday: 11:00 AM – 10:00 PM; Wednesday: 11:00 AM – 10:00 PM; Thursday: 11:00 AM – 10:00 PM; Friday: 11:00 AM – 11:00 PM; Saturday: 11:00 AM – 11:00 PM; Sunday: 11:00 AM – 11:00 PM. Per-strip pricing is not published for this listing — the price card on the machine is the authority. It takes cash; card payment has not been confirmed here, so bring notes or coins.
Unlike traditional dip-and-dunk silver-halide machines that take three to five minutes to process paper through liquid darkroom chemistry, this booth in New York uses a digital camera and instant thermal or dye-sublimation printer inside a classic booth enclosure. After coins or a card start the session, the camera fires four poses in quick succession and delivers a dry, ready-to-pocket photo strip into the exterior tray in roughly 15 to 45 seconds.
For the sharpest four-frame strip in New York, adjust the stool or bench so your eyes sit level with the lens window before inserting payment, and hold each pose until the flash completes. Digital dye-sublimation and thermal prints emerge dry and smudge-resistant, but keeping the strip out of direct dashboard sunlight and away from PVC plastic sleeves will preserve contrast and prevent thermal fading over time.
This entry is compiled from community reports and was last checked on Nov 3, 2026. If the booth has moved, changed price, or stopped working, use the report link on this page so the next visitor gets the correction.
