When you are in a relationship there are some things you just do. One of them is go see your S.O.'s band play. I'm lucky that my SO is in a fantastic band and so love to hear them play. However, some of the places that they play are not the greatest estabilishments i've ever been in. And i think breakers is up there on the bad scale. I was here for happy hour on a friday, and if it hadn't been for the fact it was happy hour, this place would get 2 stars. The happy hour specials were fantastic. BIG mug of domestic beers (miller, bud, etc) were only $3! ANd appetizers were half price. My friend and i split the nachos and chicken fingers. Dinner for $4? Good for me! The food was not bad, but it also wasn't that great either. The nachos could have used more "stuff" on the bottom as it ended up being a big pile of chips. My other friend got the spiniach and artichoke dip, which may have been the best choice. Definitely one of the better S&A dips i've ever had. After happy hour was over, we were forced to wait an hour until the "power hour". from 8-9 bottled beers were a buck! I even bought a round for the band! Definitely a good deal Lots of pool tables and darts and dorky men here. Great odds if you're a single girl! The place has reccently gone through part of a rennovation as there were still some spots without paint or decorations, but overall it wasn't that bad. Happy Hour deals are definitely worth the visit. $14 for 2 big beers, some nachos and $4 bottled beers? Thats a definite happy hour! read more

Place was atmost okay. I attended a get together for my friends 30th bday celebration last weeked. Drinks were extremely over priced about ($9 for a tiny drink). Dont really understand why there is a dress code as the establisment itself is not the cleanest. Dj was pretty decent and the area they have for the dance floor was pretty spacious. Overall, an okay experience. read more

I ordered barbecue chicken wings from Uber eats. 24 pack and with ranch sauce. Big wings. Great sauce perfectly sauced. Delivered in about 15 minutes which was impressive. Very hot temperature and crispy unlike some places. There wings are not soggy read more

If you're looking for a pool hall/bar, you could do a lot worse than Breakers. It's a solid option, but nothing truly memorable. The best thing about the place is that it's located in the top-most section of the clock tower right off Centerville Rd. If you live in the area, you'll know what I'm talking about. And if you don't, then don't bother coming here, as there are undoubtedly better options for you closer to home. As I said, though, being high in the clock tower strip mall offers a fairly unique experience, offering views of the world below. Alas, those views don't amount to much more than birds eye views of the parking lot where you left your car. Yeah, kind of a letdown. There are dozens of pool tables up for rent, so if that's your aim then you'll be set. Otherwise, there's a stage on the lower floor of the bar that hosts a pretty strong selection of local acts most of the time. Other than that, though, the only thing Breakers offers is an indoor smoking section, for those of you who would want such a feature. Not being a smoker, it doesn't do much for me, but I know that two of my friends certainly appreciate being able to enjoy their cigs indoors every now and then. And that's pretty much it, really. Breakers is a decent pool hall for those that live close enough, but it's by no means a destination bar. Try it out if you're in the area. read more

I've been here twice in the past and didn't think much of it. A smokey pool hall, woohoo. Recently, I was motivated to come as my local dance studio was co-hosting a fundraiser. I was so shocked to see how much Breakers had changed. It has more of a club feel - the bottom floor has a stage, a dancefloor, plenty of seating and a bar that lines the entire back wall. Upstairs there is pool, which I believe is the smoking section (I didn't go up there). It's kind of cool to find that there's a somewhat hip place to go to out in Herndon if I want to go dancing but not out to the city. The bar service could improve though. I'm sure they were slammed but one of the bartenders not only took forever trying to figure out how to find drinks on his register (maybe he's new?) but he completely forgot to *make* the drinks after he input it. read more

Breaker's is our usual Thursday to-go spot. $4 quesadillas (AWESOME), although you have to specifically ask for guac if you want it. happy hour $3 rails (I think?) and $1 bottle domestics. Bartenders are awesome! Plenty of space, so awesome for groups (unless some company is having a corporate get-together). Karaoke and free pool (if you've spent money) after 9pm, cheap darts. Note: only reason why I gave four stars is because I've had people try other things on the menu and they weren't really a fan. I always play it safe with the quesadilla so I've had no such experience. read more

My league pool hall. Great group of people, supportive in everyway. I look forward to coming to play every week. read more

Good music, good food, and good drinks. I like coming here it's been nice and the dance floor. I like the pool table section.

Amazing deffinetly a spot for a chill spot to come shoot some pool or enjoy a good music genre

Went there the other night for a few drinks. Eric and Christina were tending bar and were real polite and gave great service. Beer selection was good, would have liked a few more local beer choices. Overall good experiences and I will be revisiting read more

I used to come here when I lived in VA. I've been to a lot of pool halls and other places, but nothing beats this. Live bands and Djs and a huge stage, and two levels of billiard tables. The only think I have no recollection of is the food quality. Other than that, the manager David is one of the kindest person you'll ever meet. read more

I had the worst experience ever there! An awful empty place with bad karaoke, disorganized management and rude and psychopath face control guy, that kept going after me, offending me and saying how much "he hates me" and "disrespects me" because I haven't presented my ID even though at the beginning they let me in!!! Total nonsense! So unprofessional and creepy !!! read more

Staff could be friendlier but drinks are cheap enough and music played is really good.

Came here to play pool and that's what we did. Great time had fun. David the manager and the 2 bar tenders where awesome. Tables are awesome!!! read more

**Why We Chose this Place?: I am addicted to Bar Trivia AKA NTN. For locations near you go to www.buzztime.com **Location: Next to the Clocktower. Next to Gold's Gym just around the corner from Verizon thru a door & up the elevator to the fourth floor. **First Impressions: WOW! Huge! Clean. So much to do. A pool tournament was taking place so most of the patrons were there. A gentleman was playing guitar to a seating area that had no patrons. A long bar, where most seats were taken. Many Dart boards along one wall. **Guitarist/Singer: Great Acoustic Guitar Player. Great Voice. Songs included Freebird, Time of Your Life, Margaritaville, What's Going On, & James Taylor Hits among others. **Suggestion: Improve the Microphone or ?? We couldn't always hear his voice and we wanted to hear him more clearly. :-D **Trivia: We were the only 2 that played. My husband and I sat at the end of the bar where we were directed to sit. The manager produced 2 playmakers and turned on the game. **Prices & Fare: Happy Hour 4:00- 8:00- $4 appetizers I had the steak Quesadilla.It was very good. My husband had the Wings. A Dozen for $6.50. They came in different flavors. He got the extra hot. He said they were 'Good'. Other appetizers on the $4 menu: Potato Skins, Jalapeno Poppers, Mozzarella Sticks, & Chicken Quesadillas. We were told that Happy Hour Drinks were domestic draft for $3. We drank Coors Light. The glasses were 22oz. & Frosty. Power Hour is from 8:00 PM - 9:00 PM. Domestic Bottles are $1. **Service: Mediocre. Our bartender, Sarah, didn't tell us about the other drinks on Happy Hour. Rail Drinks were also $3. Rail Drinks = Well Drinks. She served us. We got our drinks. She checked back on us from time to time. We needed extra napkins with the wings. We waited a bit until I found some nearby. Overall, she gets a C. **Husband's Remark: "Lots of Men" **Traveling From Out of State?: VA is a smoking state. Smoking is allowed in bars. **Would we return?: YES, without a doubt. **Day that we were there: Tuesday, Oct. 27th, 2009 **Seasonal: Costume Contest on Halloween. **Customers: Ages 21-40s, casual attire thru business attire. **Other Happenings at Breakers Sky Lounge: Wed./Thursday: Karaoke @ 9PM. FRI: DJ RIZZO @ 9:00 (No Cover) SAT: Live Bands @ 10 PM (No Cover) SUN: Free Pool All Day. read more

I am basing this review off my husband's good time going there last night without me for a boy's night out. He enjoyed their power hour and shots a little too much as they were celebrating a coworker brother's birthday. He said he enjoyed a burger there for dinner and it was really good. Also it was a funny night as Thursday nights are karaoke night. Nothing like being a drunk foot making fun of the other drunk fools. read more

I went on a Monday Night for my friends' 21st birthday. While the place is large and accommodates a lot of people, our bartender was not kind at all. In fact, she was pretty rude. My friend was waiting for her drink and when a guy showed up behind her - the bartender completely ignored her and asked the guy what he wanted to drink. They do have different events each day of the week. On Mondays in particular, they have poker night. There is also a happy hour on Mondays - Fridays. The food looked good but I didn't have any. The alcohol was well...alcohol. You do get a 25% off food & pool coupon for checking in here though, so try it out. Maybe you'll get a good bartender this time. read more

Pretty depressing even on a Saturday night. Came here with my fiancé because we were too lazy to go into the city. Listen I don't have any issue with this place, it's nicer looking than most places out here, but the drink prices do not reflect the area. They are just as expensive as DC! Not recommended for anyone under 40 years old. read more

Good happy hour, full menu outshines most bar food around, and the pool table maintenance is fantastic. read more

I used to come here all the time... This is a decent place to hang out with friends and shoot some billiards. However, it's best to stay away from this place on Friday and Saturday nights because they typically charge an arm and a leg for the pool tables themselves and for drinks. It is also worth pointing out that the staff has high turnover and that this place sort of attracts a questionable crowd at times.. other than that... I don't mind coming here and grabbing some beers every now and then... it's just not my favorite place to do so. read more

Breakers Sky Lounge - Pool Halls Near Me - Herndon, Virginia

My husband and i just moved in the area and im so glad how close and convenient it is from where we live. The bartenders and the workers there are nice! Their HH specials are great and as a pool player, i am so happy that they take great care of their tables. I can't wait to make this our regular pool hall. We've been here twice already this past week! read more

Went there this past sunday. There are two parts to the place; on the left is a billiards area and on the right is a seating area. It was free to play pool as long as each person spends $10. NO PROBLEM! Not sure if this is the deal everyday or just sundays. Serves the regular bar food and drinks. PROS: cheap hang out place, clean CONS: They never gave me back my ID for opening a tab... so I had to go back. read more

If you shoot pool this is a great place! Good atmosphere and the waitress Amber is so on point. Because the experience and respect she reciprocated I'll come here every time I come into town. Highly recommended. If your coming to shoot pool there should be no cover upstairs-change that. read more

Over the last 2 years this place still holds the record for the best Happy Hour for miles around...$1 bottle beers from 5-9 pm on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Very good deal. Clientele definitely mixed..lots of dudes, I def wouldn't take a date there. But good for a smoke and a few cheap beers. Did I say there are lots of dudes there? read more

Great local spot to come for some food and good deals. Wide open area with a vaulted ceiling in the main area! They even have a kareoke night if you are into that kind of thing, I am a bit older with kids so you won't find me singing up there but it has some good food choices! Close by to the Herndon area, innexpensive read more

Nice place to go chill and listen to good music. The chicken wings are great. The drinks were good and fairly priced. I would definitely come back when I'm in town. read more

Two stars because the bartender made some good drinks. Apart from that, it was a total waste of time.

Good for some beer and pool after work during weekdays. Not the best weekend hangout. I would rather go to Ned Divines on weekend, if in the area. The music here is always very loud. Nice place if you like playing poker and watching games. read more

It's a very nice place to chill and dance been here 5 times and love every minute....... the dj are very nice. read more

Great service and great time. Nice amount of pool tables and mature crowd. DJ was spinning a nice mix on a Saturday evening. Will be back.

This is my favorite watering hole and pool hall. I have been coming here since the first week it opened, some 20+ years ago. The staff is some of the most beautiful people I've ever met. The owner, Sam, is always attentive to his clientele. When I come here, I'm home! read more

Crooks man! I really love this place and I will be back but after hundreds of dollars got extracted by the server from my account I'll make sure I only bring cash! Take my opinion or don't but PLEASE check your account after going here read more

Today I went in with my husband and our friend. This was our 3rd time coming here. We were having fun playing pool, the lady who served us was very nice and attentive. While we were playing, the people next to us tried to start a fight talking about we should "take it outside" just because we were in "their" space. I get it the place is not so big for so many pool tables but they weren't polite to say hey lets share the space a little. You could tell they were regulars there because they new the staff and they talked to us like if they were the owners. Anyways we ignored them, tried to just have fun and just before we were leaving a security guard started to stand next to us while we paid. He told us "I just got to make sure you guys leave." We asked to speak to the manager and he told us the same thing that we had to leave. We tried explaining what happened but it seemed that since we weren't regulars we weren't getting listened to. So can you imagine the embarrassment of paying while a security and a manager are there making sure "you pay and leave." Never coming here again wouldn't recommend this place to nobody. read more

Music & drink prices super good !! People at the front weren't the nicest (idk if they were trying to be funny) but it seemed like they had an attitude. The bartenders were nice very attentive. The place is so big compared to other places. Love how they have a pool area and that you're able to play darts. It's $3 to play darts though. Since it was my first time in the area and going there at first I couldn't find it. Then realized it's was on the 4th floor. They had delicious wings! read more

Arrogant and rude service WORST food Bad Music Unprofessional Bouncers Seriously, I don't have anything to tell good about this place. read more

Great atmosphere! Jorge is an amazing bartender! Loved the pool tables and smoking lounge

I would give less than one star if possible but UNFORTUNATELY, I'm only allowed that. This place is crap. You're better off grabbing some beer from the grocery store and drinking at your house. read more

We held our first annual Charity Texas Hold Em' Poker event here yesterday at absolutely no cost to our school - this was greatly appreciated and a very kind gesture from the owner and Remy A. Remy made this happen for us and helped direct and coordinate our event which was a great success. Jay was also a fantastic bartender/ waiter, he did it all flawlessly. We at Alpha-bet Preschool genuinely appreciate this great gesture and we look forward to doing this again in the future! read more

Have to give the Breakers an "A" for customer service! Tonight was New Years Eve and I purchased tickets from eventbrite for the bash. I purchased a VIP for me and general for my wife. The difference being the VIP congress with drink tickets and since she was on medicine she wasn't drinking. So we are the amongst the first people to arrive since we wanted to get there early to get a good seat because my wife can't stand very long. We go to seat at a table for two and the waitress informs us that all tables are reserved and coat $50. This is in addition to what I already paid. OH NO! Big flag! She offers to get the manager and he comes over. He introduced himself as David. He then explains that the tables are taken. I explain to him my issue with my wife back but that I understand they are making money and that we will just leave and take a refund because there is no way she could stand for 6 hours. I understand its New Years and all. Well, David says no, you're not leaving, it's New Years and you came a long way. He finds us a table to sit for the night and then periodically came though to check on us to make sure we were having a good time. I want to go on record to say, we need more managers like David who care about the customer needs over a policy. Thanks David for making my wife's night wonderful and enjoyable. One minor side issue though, you never put out the dessert that was quoted in the menu for the night. The other food was awesome. read more

Negative experience. If I could give a 0 I would. Manager Chris gave a complete sour taste in MY Mouth with this place. Complete negative over reaction to customer inquiry of pool table requirement and regulations. This manager spoke false accusations to our party, and blatantly for no reason insinuated in a comment "and if you don't pay your bill we can call the cops." I feel as if he profiled us and was EXTREMELY rude and unprofessional as a "manager" in a leadership role. Very poor customer service experience. I have gave this place my money and business on a number of occasions and this by far was THE WORST experience yet. read more
