It made me sad. I am 47, I went there nightly between ages 19-21. Kudos for the longevity, but dam. Drinks terrible, very dark, very hot. 1/2 the place has been shut down and boarded up. It's like that pet that is needing to be put down but you just can't. BThrooms literally looked as bad as they did 25 years ago and I guarantee that's the original carpet. I prefer to remember it as it once was, I will never, ever, ever on my most bored night ever go back. read more

Meh...not a lot of options for pool halls on a Saturday Afternoon. AC wasn't really keeping it cool, and music was extinct, but it was better than outside between 1-4. I bought 4-5 Beers to keep hydrated. $32.00 total seems reasonable. Friendly day bartender got a good tip. Tables were decent. Most sticks were straight, and included tips and bumpers. read more

Why does it have to be that every bar I go out to I have to be the first to review?! Ah well...If you're ever out in my apparent B.F.E. neighborhood this pool hall is one of my favorites. They only sell bottled beer, and there isn't an amazing selection but they carry Newcastle for only 3.75 so I can't complain. :) I love all the regulars that come out to this bar - Sundays are the best night to see everybody. The pool tables are pretty nice and cheaper than Slick Willie's down the street. It's hard to put my finger on what I love about this bar, but I think it might be like that for everyone who comes here on a weekly basis, but we just keep coming back. read more

If I could give this place no stars, I would. When I got to this place I had to wait for the bartender to literally stop chatting about eyebrow makeup to get to order a drink. Then later when I'm wondering how 4 shots & a beer & pizza came out to 68.00. Mins you I'm using the quarter tables.. she gives me a sheet of paper with a list of things I bought and their prices including a 5.00 wells I never ordered... First of all, how is this a receipt??? & then I wanted to keep the list and she tells me she needs it?? 2 days later my friend sees she added a $10 tip on his card!!! Like wtf? Never again. read more

I come here about once a month, service is always bad whenever heather and her sidekick are working, but the pool hall is convenient and my wife and I still have a good time and not once has Heather I.D'd me or wife and today we walked in and there was only a few people at the bar and no one was playing pool, and she tells me that she can't serve us unless we have an ID. I've held my tongue back long enough. Please hire someone who wants to make people happy and wants to make money not only for her but for the business. Both my wife and I are well above age. I'm 45 and my wife is 30. I personally feel discriminated and disrespected. I always think that we'll be treated differently but every time we go it's the same shitty service. read more

This place is absolute garbage, first time here and will never return not only is it maybe the grossest bar I've ever been to ?¿ the staff is overally rude and my drinks tasted like Louisiana truckstop toilet water the bartender with was facial piercings out the the wazoo made my experience 0/10 NO . Never returning because of her attitude she obviously forgot she was a bartender in CYPRESS tx. read more

Nice cool place to hang out. Plenty of pool tables. Decent sized sitting area. Great music. The bartenders are usually very kind and make awesome drinks. read more

Never in my life will I ever come back here! If the bartender isn't making shots for herself she's probably playing on the game machine. The place is what is is a whole in the wall and it's not worth your time read more

I wouldn't ever visit this place unless you wanna be cheated and lose money on drinks you didn't get. I'm pretty sure the only reason they're still in business is because they thrive on overcharging people's tabs. I had heard from several people that they did this often but never thought much of it until they started doing it to me. I used to go like twice a week to play pool until i noticed they had been slightly overcharging me for a while. Last time i went they charged me almost DOUBLE what i owed them, claiming i was "too drunk to know how much i really drank anyways", which i clearly was not. When my friends confirmed to the bartenders that i had not had the amount of drinks they claimed i owed them for, the bartenders came back to me and lied about what my friends had told them and told me i had to pay the tab. Definitely never going back and neither is anyone else i know after that night. Don't waste your time here read more

From out of town. looking for a good pool hall to bang some balls. Saw Barney's online. Noticed on their website free pool 5PM to 2AM with equal purchase. Not bad I thought. Got there around 6ish. bought Bud Light from the bar $3 not bad. Later, waitress came by and i got a bud light from her now it was $4 for a budlight. (drank about 6 beers, and 2 from the bar) Service was very slow, and she took it upon herself to keep the change. Finally at the end when i was finish shooting i had to pay for my table time too???? $7 I don't mind paying for it, but your website is misleading. The waitress who served me all night long said that she didn't put me in that way for pool. But you served me all my drinks all night long? I can't go back to an establishment that hustled you. Will definitely not return ever again. read more

My spot, kept to itself, few regulars. Not too crowded, great for playing a good game of billiards. Buy a t-shirt, you get free pool on Sundays. read more

My friend and I were in the mood to play some pool. By the way were both 18. We notice that this place has a good star rating and decide to give it a try. We had a hard time finding the place since half of the neon sign was burnt out. We walk in and it look alright in the beginning, but after that everything went down hill. We walked around the entire place looking for a half decent table to play at. All or most of the tables had rips in the fabric and most 5 of the tables straight didnt have 8 balls or were missing some. The sticks were just like any other pool hall so I dont have anything to complain about that, but I notice that none of the tables have chalk. I ask the bar tender if I can have some chalk. However, the music was so loud she either didn't hear what I said or she didn't understand my question I asked her. The people next to us left so we took their chalk. Honestly, the music they were playing seemed like they wanted to be the new Drink Houston. My friend and I had a hard time just saying things to each other from the loud music. As were leaving we stayed for 2 hours. The lady said in the beginning that it will be 5 per person. Assuming 5 per hour, but it wasn't and our total was some where in the 30 range. She put both of us on the same ticket so we said if she can split our check into each of our cards. She gave a little attitude cause it seemed like it was too much work for her to do. Im sorry but if your going to complain about making money then you have lost my business and disrespect my friend and I. As we were waiting to get our cards back we notice one of the waitress grinding on some guy like she was actually in Drink Houston. It shows how great they are running their staff by letting their employees parting instead of doing their job. I have been to my fair share of billiard halls and this was the lowest of the low. In summary: Place looks like its falling apart same goes for the tables, staff is running wild and not focusing on the customers/ giving attitude towards customers, music so loud cant hear yourself think. read more

Skip it if you like well maintained pool tables, a clean environment, and friendly service where they actually being drinks to your table or check to see if you'd like another drink at some point during your stay... read more

I'm a regular at this particular Barney's, and have been for some time now. I have also been to most of the other locations in town, and must say that this one is by far the best. The atmosphere is fun and the service is fantastic. Also pool leagues and tournaments are great there, a must visit for anyone looking to have a great time. read more

No wonder this place hasn't had any reviews since 2009. Who would want to waste their time writing about this place. So many of the pool table were in bad condition. It seemed that the DJ found a playlist on youtube and vine and was just playing music off of there. The cashier didn't explain anything to us and once we were done playing we (my friend and I) asked her nicely if she could split the check. One little favor and her attitude completely changed. It was as if that was the hardest thing to do in the entire world. Would not recommend. There has to be a nicer pool hall around here. read more
