    a pool table
    Natalie F.

    Super chill, no-frills billiard bar. It's nothing special but also really cheap for billiards, food and drinks. I came on a weekday night and it wasn't too packed but there is a good selection of tables. Our waitress was really friendly and quick. We ordered a bucket of beers and some burgers with fries which were actually pretty good. There's not a huge selection of food - mostly bar food - and a full bar. Def a good choice for a calm night.

    The only problem is that there are zero girls whatsoever. JD Salinger said it best: "I like to be somewhere at least where you can see a few girls around once in a while, even if they're only scratching their arms or blowing their noses or even just giggling or something." Anyway, the rates here are even cheaper than they are at fat cat. This place still isn't as good in my opinion because it doesn't have wifi, nor the charming atmosphere. However, it is way bigger, and according to my friends, the tables are a little different (this doesn't mean better, just different). I don't know exactly if they serve food here, but it looks like you can get beer here? idk, i didn't order anything. I've never been here at night, so I can't comment how it is then- however during the afternoons, this place is not too busy. As I alluded to, mostly guys come here. Most of the time it's middle aged guys, but some young ones come as well. I believe they have ping pong in the back, though I've never gone to go properly look. This place is probably a 15 minute walk from the 7 train, and while you can take a bus to get closer, none of the buses exactly go near it, so you're gonna have to walk some length of the distance. Still, if you want to save money, and have business in flushing as it is, this can be a great place to go practice and have a chill hang out with friends.

    Came here with my uncle to play pool first time ever in my life. The smell of smoke was present when I entered even though it says no smoking everywhere. The tables looked really clean and there were a lot of players everywhere. I didnt even know there was music playing until the end , it wasn't loud. The music was Keke do you love me by Drake so that was dope.. 90 percent of the players were men in their 50s. 7 percent were like college kids and 3 percent female. Reminds me of when I go to the golf driving range. Playing was a lot harder than I thought. My shoulders , back and neck was kinda achy just after playing just one hour. It took me 45 minutes just to learn to hit the ball without moving the stick upwards or hitting it too weak. Time went by so fast. I was nervous because I dragged pushed the stick forward on the table like twice and if it ripped that would not be good. But it was a fun experience, 12 bucks is good price I feel but I prefer bowling. My advice for people like me that are coming here for first time or new players is to practice the hand and arm positioning and knee bending a lot before coming here and watch videos online youtube. That way you will have more time to play and not spend most of it learning like me. Overall it was a good experience and apparently according to the guy at the front, this place hosts the World Championship of Pool so that was cool to hear.

    This is a great place to play ping pong. Lots of available ping pong tables: 6 STIGA expert tables. Lots of spaces to move when playing ping pong. Cheap rates if you bring your own paddles. After spending a cumulative total of $100 or more you get $15 off next visit. I used to play pool at this place as well. Pool section looks like other pool places. However, the outside facade of the place looks sketchy and dark. Need to be a bit careful while getting there as the place is not that lit. There is a parking garage next to this place if you are planning on driving there. Overall, this is a great place to play ping pong at a cheap rate.

    We love this place. My boyfriend and I met here about 5 years ago and we go here every few months with the groupon. They're always friendly and after we finish playing we sit and relax. Yes, its run down yes, its old but its a chill place to talk, drink decent beer and play some pool or carom. Definitely recommend.

    The iconic sign!

    It's about $8 an hour for billiards here. They have a lot of tables and it's pretty roomy

    Very nice billiard tables, excellent service, good crowd. A little pricey but worth it.
