Why not thank the fools that left you decent reviews? Grow TF up; you're running a business, not a Facebook page. If people complain just take it in and make the correction instead of making excuses! For you to accuse that one guy of being the person that didn't pay their tab is a totally trash response and shows what a low life you are. Seeing this type of high school energy on Yelp will make us pick somewhere else entirely. Ciao!

Of all the pool halls I have been in, this ranks #1 in customer service NOT being a priority. I…read morewas looking to play on one of their 9' Diamond tables as no one was over there playing, and was told that they had a tournament coming up with "Pros", and the owner didn't want anyone playing on them. I looked into tournaments coming there and the closest big tournament was in October or November. So I think it was because they didn't know me as I was in town for work. Not a pool hall I would recommend. At least I waited 15 minutes to be asked what I was needing. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE IF POSSIBLE

Where to start. My husband and I were camping locally and stumbled on this gem in the cute little…read moretown of about 950 people near our campground. From the moment we walked in, we were treated as old friends. The owners were so welcoming and pleasant. This is also a pool hall where local tournaments are held, so feel free to enjoy a game or 2. They also have a pinball machine, which we REALLY liked. (Maybe a little too much ) We ordered some drinks and decided to try the Reeses shot and mini beers in regular and chocolate. They were DELICIOUS. Definitely recommend. On our first visit, my husband had the Buffalo Chicken sandwich basket, and I had the Patty Melt special. It was all so flavorful. The burgers are smash burgers, so they have the thin, crispy edges that I LOVE! HIGHLY RECOMMEND trying. Our next visit (the next day), we had to try the wings. They're smoked first, then fried, so they're nice and crispy. We had 10 hot and 5 each of the garlic parmesan and lemon pepper. They were served piping hot, and they were so tasty. The service was impeccable. I'm so glad we found this place, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to try a local spot in the area. You will not be disappointed! *They also offer a VERY reasonably priced Ribeye Dinner special every Saturday night. I plan to check that out tomorrow.

Not the one with the roses and 4 hoofed animals, the one with the green - Billiard Table Green (felt that is). If you are interested in expanding your knowledge of the history and pursuit of the sport of pocket billiards, look no further. One of the most unique places you will find is right here, quietly existing in Willow Springs on the North side of Archer Avenue. You have probably driven past it hundreds of times. Filled with photos and memorabilia of the sport, site of numerous championships, visits from famous billiard wizards, home of antique (priceless) billiard tables, wholesome meals, and wonderful beyond words owners, I give you the Illinois Billiard Club/ aka / Jim and Bonnie's, Jim and Bonnie Parker, Proprietors. From their website: "Today, as the oldest, most historically elegant, individually founded, owned and operated private billiard club in North America, the IBC and Bonnie's Dining & Banquets invite today's 21st century society to enjoy a fine meal, and, the fun filled game of billiards ... all presented within the charm, tranquility and grandeur of their 19th century country home" The IBC is a private club that, for a limited time (effective February 2010) opens its doors at 5pm every Friday and Saturday evening serving dinner and allowing you to check out their billiards tables without membership. Dinner reservations are suggested. Their website: www.illinoisbilliardclub.com There is a lot of information on the sport and on the facility. Jim and Bonnie's provides catering and the facility is available for events. We hold our annual Christmas party here and the space along with the food and service make the event quite special and memorable. Check out the wedding pics on the website. If you can convince your betrothed that this is the place to hold your wedding reception - invite me for giving you the advice. If you visit in the near future, talk to Jim in regards to membership in the IBC. I understand that there are some slots open. If you enjoy billiards, the cost is minimal in regards to the quality of the tables, food and camaraderie you will find here. Note that this is NOT a pool hall bar; this is a first class, family run, private facility for people serious about the sport (which also happens to function as a restaurant in order to market their services). If you are in that "serious about the sport" category, it is more than worth a visit.
