What players say

So I want to start this review with the fact that I don’t like to go out. I went out with a couple girlfriends to get out of my comfort zone, and we decided to go to the pocket for fun. Me being an introvert was met with kindest and most open bartender. I believe his name is Josh.

This review is a bit overdue but my wife and I stopped in a few weeks ago and had a wonderful experience. We had a meal/drinks at the bar which was delicious. Joshua G was both our bartender and our cook. You don't often see that. How he was able to do both so well at the same time was fascinating to watch.

★★★★★ Evan, Jan 2026

OK, I had not been to The Pocket in a while, probably 5 years. I was blown away. The place was clean as could be. Tables, cues, and equipment were in perfect working order. Staff gave us better service than we deserved. Great beer selection and the food was killer. I really loved the fried Zucchini and the burger.
