What players say

Pool is play by the hour except for a couple of tables. Christine was extremely helpful finding me a shirt that was right fit and color. Don't bother with the foose ball table. Someone is stealing the balls! At Christine warned us. Lol. Everything was at a reasonable price.

★★★★★ Ivy, Oct 2023

Questionably 100 pool tables. Love the atmosphere. Workers are super friendly and helpful. Food is delicious, try the Big D basket! Great place to go out with friends and family or go to the bar and have a few drinks. Also have quarters tables.
