This is a really neat venue. Tons of pool tables and quite spacious. Plenty of large TVs overhead for those trying to follow a game. There were several servers walking around so you can stay playing at your table-we were checked in on several times. The beer was a good price and they leave a menu with bar food on each pool table-we did not order food but they had nice options at very good prices. Bonus- we came in on a Monday which is free pool night! The indoor smoking made me sick so we couldn't stay as long as I would have liked. But what can you do? People like to drink, smoke and play pool. It's legal here so if you can't put up with it you'll have to find somewhere else. read more

I went in around lunchtime on an early Friday afternoon. There were a lot of tables and they were in decent condition. Didn't have my gear with me, but the house sticks were in good enough to get a couple hours of practice in anyway. The young gal who helped me at the bar was friendly and there seemed to be a few regulars playing. I'm guessing they have league there some nights. Seemed like a pretty cool place to shoot and I enjoyed the time I got in. Didn't ask about food as I was just passing through. Rates were reasonable and I'll stop by next time I'm in the area. read more

Its specialties are the pool, darts, and other games, which is fine, and the bar areas could accomodate relaxed drinking and TV sports watching, but the bar servers are immature, chatting among themselves, therefore inattentive about service and letting things be. When they are actually serving they get in a rush and don't listen, much less provide a welcoming attitude. One of the male floor servers is hyper and loud and distracting to the other staff and tries to get attention for himself from everybody, yelling and invading personal space. read more

What a great experience! Stephanie was on point with the drinks and the recommendations! She was very attentive, and accommodating.

This establishment is trash. If I could given it a negative 1 if I could. I moved here from chicago and I'm disappointed. I made a reservation for a table and had to wait 30 minutes, then I got called, only to have people already playing at my table. There was poor management where i had to be relocated to a new table. After which they came to us and asked us to leave because we had a bad experience with one of their waitresses. I will never go to their establish again. Nothing but a bad experience. They need to learn how to manage their tables and time. Seems like such a little town with no experience with big crowds. Personally disposable. Ha read more

It's nice to play pool, service is extremely slow... music could be a lot better. Have not tried the food there. Most of the time I had to look for our waitress... read more

Nice dive bar that's never too packed. I like the dart boards. They also do karaoke on Tuesday which is pretty fun

The waitress was rude and disrespectful. The food was burnt but cold because it wasn't brought out quickly and when we informed her that it looked burnt she said "it's bar food what do you expect". It was not nice and an overall terrible experience. read more

Great service, a little over priced on the pool though. My husband and I enjoy coming here to play a game or 2 anytime we're in the area. $20 is a whole heck of a lot to pay for 1-2 games. I wish they would offer a 30min, or a hourly rate. Staff is super friendly, sweet, and some are very pretty so that makes it worthy it I suppose! read more

Huge place with tons of pool tables and great friendly service. Large team league following. Limited draft selection but plenty of cans and bottles. Very average microwavable food. Eat next door at Lima 21 and come here afterwards to work off the delicious food. read more

We love coming to Fast Eddie's. Lexi always takes great care of my table and I. She is very attentive and always has such a positive attitude... great costumer service is always guaranteed with Lexi! read more

I've came to Fast Eddie's every time that I visit Edinburg and it it always a great time! Lexi has always helped us out and is very attentive! Will definitely continue to make it a point to stop by every time in town! read more

This is a pretty nice place to go and spend a few hours with the guys playing pool and having a few drinks. The staff here is always attentive and will take care of you. Now that it's a no smoking zone you can go in and breathe easily. I stop by maybe once a month with the guys and we have no complaints. read more

Eddy's Tavern & Social McAllen - a man and a woman posing for a picture - American Near Me - Mcallen, Texas

My friends and I patronize this establishment last night. To begin with, the music was so loud we could not engage in proper conversation. The service was mediocre at best. The food which we ordered was quite overpriced. For example the chicken tenders interested of three overdone tenders, and a small handful of fries which were also overdone. When it was time to leave I had to have someone find my server so I could close out my tab. When she finally arrived, she told me my cab had already been closed out and started to walk away. I had to ask to get a receipt. I generally like to see what has been charged to my card. I definitely would not recommend this establishment to family or friends. read more

It was my first time at this late but it won't be my last because of the great experience I had. I was told it was a great spot to check out sporting event and I was not disappointed. What I love the most was how they have so many for cable which are great for breaks during the game. Drinks: they have a great selection of beers and drinks! They have a large bar area at the entrance which is stocked with televisions that have all kinds of sporting events on them. They also have a smaller area in the back which is always a great spot to get a quick drink without having to go to the main bar area. The girls that work here are also very attentive and provide great Service! read more

See all

Have always been into playing pool and this place is awesome to go to. Great atmosphere friendly staff! Also a great place to just relax and watch games or fights. Would recommend to anyone. My waitress was Itzamar and she was AMAZING! Very attentive and made my experience even better. read more

BL is not something they care about here. Saw the great reviews and thought this would be a great place to come watch RAIDERS game and hang out. Place appear to be nice but bartender was not too happy I was there, lying to my face about not having ESPN when I saw it clearly on the TV. Still she insists they don't have have the channel, said sorry and walked away. I was devastated but I guess that was to be expected. I'll take my money elsewhere which is what she wanted and we will both be happy read more

Visiting from north Carolina and this is worst place in mcallen. The waitresses.. don't get me started just disappointing. Will never come back. Beautiful place, bad management these girls need to be properly trained.... DONE read more

Con: They allow smoking indoors Pro: everything else This place is labeled on Yelp as a sports bar, but it's really a pool hall with a bar. I've been to this location twice now, once on a weekend and once on a weekday. As expected, it tends to be more full on the weekend. I'm guessing Tuesdays are karaoke nights. That part was interesting, as drunk karaoke usually tends to be. They charged $6 per person for unlimited games of pool. You just have to pick out a table and a waitress will come over to give you a pool bracelet & take your drink orders. Our waitress was really friendly and outgoing. I liked her. I bet she consistently makes good tips. Anyway, drinks were really good and the music (they did have non-karaoke songs half the time) was a mix of ALL kinds of genres. It went from Drake to rock to Mexican regional. Crazy stuff. All in all, I've had a lot of fun every time--even though I'm an awful player--and will continue to visit sporadically. read more

This place is pretty dope. Definitely the new spot for pool an if your a cowboys fan, you'll love it.

I've been here before on a weekend and we paid a cover, because I am 19. I came on a Wednesday night, and the hostess politely said I was not allowed because she said I was a minor(she did check my ID). On your website it has no details about an age limit. I came down to spend time with my family and they wanted to go here and I was denied to go in. You lost 4 customers for the night. read more

5 bottles in a beer buckets $22. If your hungry the Pizza is good. Chicken tenders were not cooked. $8 for an hour of pool. It wasnt a bad experience except for the waitress who had a disagreement with my husband when he asked her politely to change the channel. Apparently they get the nba games but wouldn't attempt changing the channel to watch a Golden State game. Manager didn't try to change the channel either once. Our tab was well over 300 dollars but we weren't even humored with a channel surf. I'll think twice before spending my hard earned money here again. read more

My favorite place to hang out n play a little pool n drink my favorite drinks....Music is great..the prices r great...Tuesdays karaoke is awesome!!!! read more

I got my groove back comin' out of this place! I like to compare myself to a fine wine. I just get better with age...and boy did this place prove me right. I'm 48 years old and hooked up with one of those 19 year old morenos. MAN O MAN..that's all I gotta say. read more

It was ok, pretty smoky but a fun place. Mostly a guy hang-out. When I was leaving around 11pm, there were a lot of thugs cruising around in the parking lot looking for trouble. read more

This is the definition of a pool hall. It's one bar and all the pool tables surrounding it. It's a huge spot so that's nice. The atmosphere is very nice with TVs everywhere and lots of random posters. I definitely recommend. read more

Eddy's Tavern & Social McAllen - This is only a third of the pool tables. - American Near Me - Mcallen, Texas

I enjoy coming here to play pool - that's it. My bartenders have always been dismissive; one even refused to explain a drink special to me and ignored me at the bar. Other times, several waitresses approach the table and confuse who is keeping the tab. If you avoid the food and alcohol service, everything will be fine, although you would hope the service would improve over time rather than decline. read more

Plenty of room just to sit and drink with friends, and a huge amount of pool tables. Attentive staff. Good tunes playing. Well kept up establishment. read more

Haha it's funny how if you click "more info" it says that their is NO alcohol. So I just wanna say, YES people, there is alcohol! My fav shot is one of the bar tenders specialty drinks. I forgot what the bar tenders name was but it's his name and then "sweet skeet" it's blue and it's AMAZING! read more
