Of course, a bar is available (of course!) but tee-totallers who enjoy a game of pool are sure to be entertained with over 20 tables available to punters. Unfortunately, as with most pool halls I've encountered (a lot of them that have been Rileys, in fact) it does seem a bit dark and dingy in there - and, given the nature of the place, it does attract large groups of males. I've never encountered trouble in there but a couple of times have received looks off the kind of naughty boys mommy warned me not to play with. Still, people generally keep themselves to themselves and the bar staff are friendly - reasonable pint prices too, so a more than decent way to kill an hour or two when the city's more visceral thrills don't appeal.

There was a complete mixture of people in there, as you can imagine at 4am in the morning. But random none the less, we had a few games of pool, a couple of drinks and had a really good time. I won't pretend and say that I'm a regular pool player as I'm not. In fact, I'd probably go as far as saying that the only time I'm any good is by fluke. The pool tables seemed good condition but again, I'm not a pro! Even though it was very early in the morning, the staff were all chirpy and seemed happy to have such a lively crowd in!

As I walked through I noticed this lounge was a pretty cool hangout for hotel guests but could also make a great pace for outside guests. They have great brightly coloured lighting that works well with the high end finish of the decor. Great seating options and a huge bar. The have a pool table which is FREE to play and also have sports or the news on TV. This place reminded me of hotels in shoreditch that have hip and trendy bars on their lower floors. Definaitly a place worth checking out again soon and hold fire on an update to this review.

I've never played snooker and actually enjoyed it as much as I did when I went to this place. It's full of avid snooker lovers who really feel passionate about the game; but there's also people in there who are like me, that would just like to have a bit of fun. I like the fact it's not too big like some of the other major larger establishments and it also doesn't cost as much as some of the other places. We managed to play a few games and also have a few drinks, all on our budget of about £50 between the 6 of us. Personally, I'd recommend it to anyone who's looking to play snooker in a nice, cosy establishment which isn't too expensive.

Perfection provides snooker tables for those who like snooker - which is a good start…read more I'm not an avid snooker player but I enjoy a game now and then. It is a large hall and can be relatively empty at times. I've played snooker here quite a few times and you find that you can be immersed in your game, uninterrupted for hours. It has a lot of loyal customers from around Stirchley, so there is lots of camaraderie and great deal respect for the club. You'll rarely find any nonsense going on there. Essentially, It's a friendly local with lots of snooker tables. I've watched an England game there, and on one of the occasions where we actually won a match, me and my mates played snooker all afternoon in celebration of a very rare victory. If you like playing snooker for hours on end and live in Stirchley then head down to Perfection.

Breakfast Review:…read more Villa vs Stoke. (Villa lost again). Went there at 10:00 for breakfast, (the website says they are open at 9:00am). The guy through the window gestured 20 minutes. We went away and came back. The place was heaving!? We ordered a breakfast. It was £4.79, coffee was an extra £1.00, It came on a sizzling platter. The bottom layer was covered with tiny cubed sautéed potatoes. There was a couple of succulent sausages, 2 rashers of tasty bacon, a black thing, (turned out to be a mushroom), grilled tomato, slice of toast and a couple of fried eggs on top. My first thought was that we were in a Wetherspoons, but apparently, we were not. It's similar in the 'feel' when you are inside. It's a very busy city centre pub, right next to New Street Station, hence its popularity, no doubt. The breakfast was good. The decor was clean and modern, it was let down slightly by the atmosphere - but it was a local derby football match, so the whole of the city centre was likely to be tense. It's a shame really. If t wasn't a football day, I'd be happy to recommend the place.

It is very cheap to play snooker something like £3 for an hours play.

It's normally quite busy without ever being packed and is significantly cheaper than other less-well furnished snooker clubs around the area. They charge per amount played so you dont have to worry about ticking over on to the next hour and the drinks and snacks are very reasonably priced. There is sufficient parking although because it's near traffic lights it can be difficult to get on to the front because of the queues.
