I personally love this place.Good amount of pool tables, fair prices for food options, and all in all a good vibe. I also think this is one of the top restaurants to watch sports as well given their TV options. Lots of screens to watch multiple games at once.My personal favourite is the nachos here paired with a beer and a game of pool. Very good job all around.

Had a drink here on Wednesday night. Was seated and served very quickly.When I went back the following day for some food and drink (I was staying in the area), I found a spot and was looked at by several employees.None of them approached my table or acknowledged me aside from the looks. The bar wasn’t that busy, so I assumed I would be served soon. I sat there for roughly 30 mins and decided it was best to go elsewhere.

Great hangout spot! Awesome food (highly recommend the curly fries) and always good service. It can get pretty busy though, which is the only downside as tables can be hard to acquire.

Went there on a Saturday around 11pm and unfortunately had to wait over two hours for a pool table. There is not enough space between each table and kept having to check we wouldn’t hit anyone around us.Great waitress helped us and the food was really good!

Wow! This place just looks like your typical pool hall. This is anything but. It is the most happening place in downtown, it welcomes all ages, EXCELLENT service, great prices, and yes its a bar, but the food is AMAZING. this place is well managed. Will return and take all my friends here.

Great place to chill. Delicious food and they have a lot of pool tables. The only reason for 4 stars is that there is not much space between the pool tables. Need to keep looking out for others so you don't hit them.

I liked this place.I'm sure this place would be fun to go to with friends.There were a lot of TV's here showing the game. The place felt like a sports bar even though it's basically a pool hall.Service was okay. The only annoying thing is that I had to go to the server each time to get noticed or get served. Servers were mentally checked out from their duties, imo

I went with a couple of friends. I wouldn't recommend getting the poutine, chicken wrap or the pizza. It's weird because I used to go there before and the food was pretty good. Perhaps they changed the chef but I wouldn't recommend getting food there. It is a nice place to go to if you're looking to play pool and have some drinks but that's all

A great place to play 8 ball pool while chugging beer and enjoying some tasty snacks.The busiest days are Thursday, Friday and Saturday and the place remains open till 2 AM.The food and snacks are great.Chicken Parmesan Sandwich and Grilled Chicken Nachos are must try.
