One of the best quality pool halls in the city. They have 10 - 7 foot diamond tables, 2 - 9 foot…read morediamond tables and 8 - 9 foot regular tables upstairs. The tables are kept in great condition, pool balls are cleaned regularly and even the bar cues are in good shape. If you are serious about pool you guys should come down and check it out. They host a bunch of tournaments and league nights as well. You can buy a VIP card for 40 dollars and get pool for 8 dollars an hour here otherwise it's 12 an hour. They have a great atmosphere with a separate bar/food area with lots of tv's as well as a ping pong and foosball table upstairs. Great place to host a private party.

Friendly staff, tasteless food…read more Not worth any effort to eat as there was none to cook it. Seriously the only flavour found was a pickle. Everything else was bland. Are they afraid of salt? Are they afraid of pepper? I don't know. However, they are 100% afraid of flavour Tolerable price for downtown, not great but ok. The ratings they have are ridiculous. Also the place was dirty. Would it kill people to wipe things down?

As an avid pool player, who has played at every poolhall in the city, I can say that this place is…read morethe one that I frequent 4-5 nights a week. I believe that this business is the oldest in Calgary, and also has been in the same building since the 60's. (located beside Stavros Pub, just off Mcknight) The owner, Lenny, is the friendliest in the city. He cares about his business and his customers. He isn't just one of those people that "works" there, but he also loves the game as well. Look and Feel: If you have ever seen the movie "Poolhall Junkies" then you know what I mean. It feels kind of like old Nick's pool hall that the group always play at. Leather Pocket has the usual. (tv's, bar stools and tables), but the "old school" atmosphere really separates it from other places. Tables: 2 - Bar Boxes 2 - Snooker Tables An assortment of 4x8's An assortment of 4.5x9's All of the tables are perfectly level, sturdy, and 1" slate. They aren't sticky like the Hideout, and the felts are in great condition, compared to most places in the city. Entertainment: The main thing that stands out to me, is the Zymeta video jukebox sound system. Every song out there is available. Just navigate through the touchscreen, pick a song, or even a playlist, and you are good to go. If you have ever tried the rundown, overpriced, clunky system at Olympic Billiards, then you are in for a treat! Food/Drinks: In the southeast corner of the building, the bar is cheap, and well stocked. Chips, Chocolate bars, and pop are also available, as well as hamburgers and hotdogs. Tournaments: 10 ball - Fridays 8 ball - Saturdays 9 ball - Sundays Prices: "The Sweet Deal" $7 - per person....all the pool you want Sunday - Thursday 4pm - close The Friday and Saturday "Sweet Deal" is from 4pm - 8pm. Billiards Supplies: Not many people know, but Lenny is also able to order and sell different billiards supplies. Are you looking for a cue? McDermott? Predator? How about ball cleaner, or training balls? He can order pretty much anything, and sell it for cheaper. He also has pool tables for sale as well. Review: This place is the best in the city. Cheapest prices - $7 per person (that isn't per hour.....it's for the entire night!) Cheapest drinks out of any of the pool halls Friendliest staff www.leatherpocket.org

I'm not a huge pool player, but my boyfriend and friends are, so we enjoy the occasional trip to…read moreLeather Pocket for an evening of games and good times. Obviously specializing in pool, this place has so many pool tables to choose from, you won't be waiting long to play. Sometimes it gets kind of full and you do have to occupy your time while waiting to play. This doesn't bother me since I just enjoy watching the games... and secretly cheering for one person. It's fully licensed so you can enjoy some brews while playing a couple of games. And it's open 365 days a year so if you feel the need to play a game on Boxing Day or New Years, you can! This place caters to the pool lovers of the city, having a pool lover own the place. I went in there with a girlfriend one afternoon (both of us weren't very good) but one of the workers wasn't shy about offering tips and even playing a game with us. It was kind of cool and very different from other bars or pubs where the staff don't even notice you're playing. I enjoy an evening at Leather Pocket. Whether you're a player or just in the cheering section, it's sure to be a good time!
