What players say

I can't say enough nice things about this place, but I'll give it a try: Decor - Perfect. It's a sports bar so there are plenty of TVs showing all the games you'd want to see; darts in a designated dart room, pool table, outside heated covered patio; and best of all, there are little silhouette athletes in the tiles…

★★★★★ Mark, Jan 2020

Love the new Bench! Pool tables, TVs, great vibe. Cheap drinks! And they have my favorite new beer, Ventura Coast' Purple Tears!

★★★★★ Michelle, Jan 2023

Some of the best pool player's in the county play pool here. Top ranked dart shooter's call it home. Covered, heated, and private patio. Same owner for 35 yrs so its not corporate!What's not to like?
