Woohoo, another 1st review~…read more So I was introduced to this place by a buddy who's an avid snooker (not "boring" 8-ball, as he says) fan/player. How avid? He owns a $1000 custom-made pool cue, and competes in the local tournaments. So if he says this place has the best tables out of all the local halls, I'll take his word for it. The place is a converted warehouse (like most other Richmond pool halls), with some posters to break (no pun intended) the emptiness of the walls. So, what's great about this place? 1) Not too many people know about it. Getting a table is never a problem. Fridays + Saturdays can get busy though. 2) Free parking around the building. 3) The rates actually depend on the QUALITY of the felt. What that means, for example, is that a table with known "bad" felt costs less to rent than one with "newer" felt. So if you're a crappy player like myself, you can save a few bucks. With that said, they recently redid the felt on all of their tables (Nov 2010), so I'm not sure if this scheme is still in place. This isn't BS either. One time my friend had me try 2 tables (one "cheap", one "expensive") to see for myself. He wasn't lying. When playing on the expensive table, the balls behave more "ideally" (ie closer to what you'd expect if you've taken a Math 12 Provincial Exam). 4) There's a lounge area next to the counter. Not sure if they serve food or drinks there (I'd imagine they do), but one of your friends wants to sit out, they can in comfort. There are TVs in this area too, usually showing.. footage from snooker tournaments. Hardcore. 5) They offer additional services, such as retipping your cue. My friend uses other services for his cues as well, but I have no idea what he asks for. You'd have to be a pool shark to ask for these specialized services. 6) Each table (for the snooker ones at least) have an electronic scoreboard, so you're not stuck dealing with those lame sliders like every other place I've been to around Richmond. Makes it WAY easier to keep track of points. You're not coming in here for the decor, but if you want an excellent pool / snooker venue, this is it.

Formerly Hot Shots pool hall back in the day now under different mgmt & ownership. Conveniently…read morelocated in a strip mall at the corner of Garden City & Alderbridge. I played snooker here a few times & once for a tournament. This is 1 of the 2 best places in town to play snooker open to the public. Features 10 authentic Riley & excellent lighting fixtures as well as top grade snooker balls likely Tournament Champion just like neighboring Top 147 Snooker Club. The condition of the cloths are decent to avg the last time I was there. The snooker tables have Chinese made wall mounted electronic score boards just like at Top 147. The lighting fixtures above the snooker tables are the same Chinese made ones at Top 147 but with 14 bulbs instead of 11 so a bit better coverage. They reduce ball shadows very well. The table accessories are in very good shape. They even have universal fit telescopic cue extensions spread around the place. The snooker tables here are rumored to have pockets just a hair smaller than those at Top 147 but I also heard from a hard core player all 10 tables are Riley Aristocrats featuring steel block cushions not that this makes much difference at our skill level. Table surface markings are clean & sharp in white. Since I don't have a membership here I find them to be on the more pricey end but not by a lot. I still like the place & wouldn't mind playing more here. Nice place to play for any skill level. There are 6 Brunswick 4'x8' tables for American pool in OK condition last time I looked. This is one of only 2 places in town where I would want to play snooker. Free parking available. I went back there recently & it seemed the cloth was pretty fast on my table. Very nice to play here since it's pretty quiet & easy to concentrate since the music is low volume. It was a good experience & plan to go there more often.

Old school Portuguese pool hall. It's not just a cafe. Don't let the dumpy exterior scare you off…read more Parking is available on Kingsway, as well as the side streets. Inside is very dated. The place is actually 2/3 pool hall and 1/3 cafe. Several big screen TVs, and a surprisingly number (6 total) of pool tables. Tables are of the 8 ball variety. In other words, no snooker here. The coffee bar also serves alcoholic beverages and sandwiches. No hot food. One thing worth mentioning is that they don't have decaf for some reason. With that said, my coffee tasted fine.

Multiple men were harassing us during our game, which extended our playing time, but the staff seemed unconcerned about this and preferred asking us to leave rather than to ask other patrons to stop bullying us. I would not recommend that anyone who isn't a competitive pool player or who doesn't have a man in their group spend time there, since you won't be respected by staff or other patrons.

Ping pong dive bar in Gastown area…read more Parking is available on the streets. Sketchy neighbourhood. The inside is definitely divey. Floor is sticky. Tables are sticky. Ping pong balls are sticky. Basically reminds me of the Met, but with ping pong. Staff are friendly. Beers are a bit pricey. The ping pong area has a cosmic theme, with some black light I think. The ping pong balls are orange, and seemed to glow a bit. Good for some casual fun. Just try not to get too tipsy when playing.
