Top-rated pool halls in North Carolina

Looking for the best pool hall in North Carolina? We don't grade places ourselves.

Only halls with 10 or more reviews count, and bars with pool tables are left out. 89 of the 103 pool halls we list in North Carolina qualify; these are the top 12.

From their reviews

“Great food and beer selection. Went for lunch and wait staff were very attentive and professional. Had the chicken rap and onion rings. Wife had the wings and chips. All very good and fresh. Nice outdoor seating area and plenty of pool tables inside. Did I mention the great food?”

“This was my first time and I actually didn't plan on going in but the place I was going to was closed. I'll just go ahead and chalk this up as one of those things that was meant to be because I had an awesome dining experience.”

“I forgot my waitress name but she was amazing. She had blue eyes and blonde hair. She waited on us on Thursday July 24 about 330pm.”

Ratings and review counts come from Google and change over time. A high score means many reviewers liked a hall, not that we vouch for it. We don't list prices, and hours come from Google: confirm before you go.
