It is cash only so we only stayed for 1 hour of pool for $5. Drinks are reasonably priced as well and the staff is incredibly nice and attentive. There wasn't anyone else playing but given it was a weekday it made sense. Overall I'll come back to this place with extra cash in hand when im in the OC again.

We had a last hurrah for a couple of us girls tonight, two of us are moving in together & our server Karen was delightful & super attentive despite the busy-ness in the bar due to the Hockey Playoffs. However I will say, the manager of the night was Joyce & our group was feeling a bit uncomfortable with her micromanaging our server and pressuring her into taking our order quicker. Karen, our server, was very professional despite the manager behaving hostile. We will be returning but we did not appreciate the manager behaving in that way!!!

I'm just guessing that they are the older with older slabs up to the newer upgrade tables. The price ran between 10 and $13 an hour not a bad deal when you can find a Clean open pool hall with decent tables. Didn't notice any food, but they do have a drink cabinet where you can buy beverages from. And by all means, don't forget that they are a cash only location.

My fiancé and I stopped in for a drink and to play a couple of games of pool before a dinner…read morereservation. We opened a tab and paid for two games of pool, and had just started our first game when an employee who was clearing empty glasses walked over, put a penny on the table, and said, "I got next." We politely told him we had already paid for two games and that he could play after we finished. His response was that he works there and "it doesn't work like that." I've never been to an establishment where an employee, while on the clock, kicks paying customers off a pool table so he can play himself. Completely unprofessional and uncomfortable. Needless to say, I'll never be back, and I wouldn't recommend this place to any civilized person who expects basic respect as a paying customer.

When I said "Bar" and "Santa Ana" in the Yelp search - of course it said "Club 616" in the first…read morespot - OF COURSE IT SAID 616!!! I was lucky enough to stumble across this gem of the center of OC when they first opened - and I am proud to be a regular here. I don't know how to go somewhere else - because I feel like the staff are giant gems in this jewel of a spot. Winters is a curator of boozy information that has helped me learn about "gin" and "root beer whiskey" so I can sound like an adult-ish purveyor, when really I know close to nothing except being a willing student to his creations. Dan the Man and Jacob always see me raise my hand in the corner of the bar, like the student I am, and have been willing to fill in the blanks for me when I know I am of thirst, but do not have the words for what to order. Every person working in the well has treated me with kindness - they have taken the time to get to know me, and I will be forever appreciative of how they have taken care of me over the years. But the real joy has been the transformation that this spot has for building a community of people in Santa Ana for real recognizing real. I have been bringing my Dad with me to play pool for the past few years. Sometimes people ask me if he plays professionally, I am terrible, and my skill incline is slow, he is patient and plays with the same level craftiness that the staff offer the cocktails. My Dad is always stoked when we have time to go have a few hours of games at 616 - especially now that there are regulars on 4th street that are excited to see that he is there playing - and they rush to write their names on the chalkboard to challenge him - or beat him in a game they really earned the W. On lazy Sundays, I watch couples sit with their drink, listening to Jazz, and watching my Dad whoop my ass while making amazing shots. I am forever grateful to Memo who sometimes takes a break from his shift behind the bar to give my dad an actual challenge - which allows me the chance to watch my Dad enjoy fellowship around the table. Knowing the table was a relic of the bars former self, and knowing the history that this spot has in Santa Ana is a reminder that so much around us can change - but it is those moments of the crack of the rack, the cheer of getting the combo shot, and the shake of hands when it's over that shows that it's not just about the pool table - but about the energy of a place that is welcoming and curated by people who care about what they do - and care about who comes through their doors. Thank you Jason and Mike B to bringing this to 4th St and supporting the community that was already here - and for building a community for the future. Thank you to Christina and Brandon for always having amazing pictures, decor, and fun events at 616 that help introduce new folks into this great spot. Time is short. Learn about Root Beer Whiskey. Write your name on the Chalk Board. No one lives forever.
