Loved our experience at Fast Eddy's. The place was quite clean, with great pool facilities, and an overall lovely vibe to it. The darts in the corner, various arcade machines, and a full bar. This place has everything you need, and is a great spot for any evening!! read more

Brittney is the absolute best bartender in the state of Texas. Courtesy and professional and not hard to look at. 5 star performance.

Went here with a group of friends for a birthday celebration and it didn't disappoint. Great food, awesome vibe and ambiance. It got a bit crowded towards the end of the night but we all had a great time. read more

Nice place to play pool. They have about 6 tables upstairs, but the main room is on the ground floor with about 10 tables. 2 diamond tables. The tables seem to be well maintained. The nights get busy with league play. Friday and Saturday nights tend to have a wait list. Parking is decent. read more

Cool vibes a lot of people you know,not the best looking or most friendly people but it's a cool place to play billiards with the group

I was a regular there back in 2018 the environment was great, I love their Jalapeño poppers I crave them time to time, the service is excellent as well. I would always get the room to ourselves and enjoyed playing pool, I haven't been there since before covid read more

Ambiance, perfection. Service, attentive, personable, nice!! Food, very good, neat, clean. A great vibe. read more

2 stars for billiard l like this game! Didn't like it, nothing to drink, no food, no service! read more

Super chill place to kick it with plenty of activities including pool, arcade, darts, sports, and drinks. The only reason this place received 3 stars is because when my girlfriend asked for a drink, they not only ID her two separate times, but required her to purchase two drinks?!?! Infuriating and frustrating because when confronted, they denied the accusation. read more

My friends and I came to Fast Eddy's to watch the Super Bowl yesterday and we had a great time! There was plenty of seating, lots of arcade games and pool tables, and a good selection of beer and snacks. I had an Ace Pear Cider, and my friends had White Claws and beer. The bartenders were friendly and got our drinks to us quickly, even with the large crowd. We ended up sitting on the edge of some of the pool tables because most of the seating was taken, but there was plenty of room to stand downstairs, and they also have an upstairs area that you can access. They also welcome kids until a certain time, so there were lots of families here to watch the game together. For this particular day, they had a table of 49ers themed food and cookies, but we weren't sure if this was available for anyone to take, or if it was for a private party. It would have been super helpful to have had a sign to let people know. Overall, this is a great place to watch a game with a group and grab a beer. We'll be back! read more

First time coming to this billiard'a yesterday, since we where in the area. It was nice and a friendly employee. She's very nice and welcoming. We cant wait to come back. read more

Fast Eddy's Billiards - a pool table - Pool Halls Near Me - Capitola, California

Came here on a Friday with some friends and had an amazing time! It was super busy so we had to wait a bit to order because one of the ladies was talking to someone at the end of the bar and kept walking off without helping anyone, but the lady with the pink hair was busting butt helping everyone and letting us know she'd seen us and would be over to help. The music was great, the food was yummy, and I will definitely be back with more friends! read more

Pool. Beer. Jukebox. Snacks. Chill people. Good prices. What else do you want? I mean seriously? read more

Was here last night for the first time in a good decade. Only thing that's changed is the beer selection might have gotten a little better, but everything else is as classic as can be. Great place to catch up with some friends, rack em up, and throw a few back. They have a bunch of fried snacks that really hit the spot after a few. Coming here made me realize how awesome it is that spots like this still exist. In times where everything is changing and Santa Cruz is becoming a little bombaclaaat yuppy haven, it's nice to see that some things remain the same. read more

My group and I went to order and asked the chashier if she needed a name so she can find us when our food is ready. She looked at me (Asian) then a friend (the only other Asian) and made the comment "don't worry I won't forget your faces". We didn't think much of it since we were the only ethnically mixed group. Over an hour passes by and we haven't gotten our food or billiards set even though there were many open tables. We went up to the bar to ask and finally got half our food (chicken wings and fries), as they forgot the other half, and our billiards set. We play two games and still have not gotten the rest of our food. Yet again, we had to go up and ask. However when we got our pizza bites and Mac and cheese balls, we received ranch and soy sauce. I don't know if it's because our group had the only 2 Asians in the whole place but you certainly don't eat soy sauce with any of the food we ordered. read more

Love fast Eddys. Affordable rates and food. Lots of tables. Employees are great and accommodating. Tables currently getting refelted with about half done already. Two excellent diamond tables. Lots of other games and darts here as well. Great place read more

As a local, I'm fond of this place. It has a family-owned vibe. That being said, it's worth mentioning that "family-owned" usually means the equipment isn't great, but that's not the case. They keep the felt fairly fresh, more so than you would expect. The sticks are above average as well. The place is pretty old and it shows here and there. They've been kicking it since '69 or '70, so a lot of history. Parking is never a problem, especially after dark. Above all, I find this to be a safe place. I've spent a lot of time there and never heard or saw any loud arguments, much less fights. These days, that's worth mentioning. read more

The best pool hall on the central coast just got better. This is the only place where the tables are given new felt and balls are cleaned regularly. Full size Brunswick tables are the norm. there are so many perks at fast Eddie's it's hard to explain read more

This place is awesome. Old school pool hall with a friendly staff and laid back atmosphere. The perfect place to hang with friends, drink a few cold ones and listen to some great tunes. Family owned for over 40 years! Great spot!!! read more

Randy is the best ever!!! helped us with a ride home and everything. really appreciate his service and everything he is awesome and will be coming back cause of him!!! super appreciate randy!!! thanks randy! read more

Its a great place to go with some friends and have a good time. They have a high end jukebox that plays almost any song you can think of. The women's restroom is always clean when i go. Also the beer selection is great! They have something for everyone (ipa, pale ales, light beer, etc). The owner Todd is extremely friendly and has a great dry sense of humor! Fast eddies is my go to on almost any occasion. read more

This is a great bar for playing pool and hanging out with friends. They follow covid guidelines and have a great atmosphere. Definitely will be coming back again! read more

I've been going to Fast Eddy's for awhile and I did love it, but tonight things went south. One of my female friend was assaulted by a customer. The female staff (only female staff at the time) didn't handle it well and instead gave excuses as to why he did what he did trying to defend him. Apparently they're good homies I guess...They even asked if my friend had ever been to a bar before because apparently things like these happen all the time... and to them...it's perfectly normal to be assaulted...Which is BULLSHIT. So if they are openly promoting rape culture...I'm sorry we will not be returning anymore. And it's a shame because this was my number one billiards place. read more

you know, i haven't been to many pool halls, and i only recently picked the game up. but, i really like this place, and that's coming from a 20-something girl who isn't perfect at it by any means. it's just, exactly what it looks like - pool with (to me) good tables, it's clean, the people are nice enough, and the prices are solid (pro-tip: you can pay for half an hour so at the time of me writing this review it's $6/hour but I only had 30 minutes so I paid $3). I just played solo, no one bothered me, i got a little better, no complaints homiez! (However!!! i have read a review by an "M G." on this place about being harassed by some other customer and the staff did nothing about it which is really messed up - i can only speak on my one-time experience though) read more

Fast eddy's is your classic pool hall and dive bar combined into one. They have a downstairs and upstairs with plenty of tables. The crowd is mixed from old to young and on Tuesday nights, ladies play for free. It's perfect place to chill with a group of people, or even hang with a few just a few friends. The french fries and mozzarella sticks are actually really good. Good beer and pitchers are decent priced. It's about $1 to play a song on the jukebox. Really not matter what night of the week your come or who you come with you're sure to have a great time at Fast Eddy's. read more

The only bad thing about this place is the short blonde server, she's really rude and her tone has always been shit. You can trust the rest of the reviews about her being a bitch. read more

Cheap Pool Friendly, cool staff GREAT sound system - bass slaps, medium-high volume, modern jukebox Tons of Tables Hip, fun crowd Food was tasty for a pool hall (fried food apps and snacks) Tip - Back Room: music is way more quiet and lights higher in the back room, a little more privacy too with your own high top table and seats in the corner - perfect for eating or a bit more intimacy or personal conversation Tip - Upstairs: cool, music less loud, less seating read more

Fast eddies is a family owned fun for all very nice pool hall, The jukebox can play the Gummy bear song! Very cool I suggest

Ah some good times are to be had here.... Granted it is not the safest of places or the best looking nor does it have the greatest crowd in the world but if you enter with a live and let live approach to life then you should come out just fine. And for gods sake please make it seem like you are a local and not some "culledge edujidicated brat". My first suggestion is to go on tuesday nights with a bunch of girls and then you can get in and play the billiards for free. Tuesday is ladies night if you hadn't figured it out. Other than that I also suggest that you always go with a group consisting of at least two or three decently sized men just for a psychological deterrent to the rougher types wanting to prove something. read more

Waiter Alisha, was really rude. I was waiting patiently for her to serve me and she snapped at me saying how I need to go to the other girl who "isn't serving anyone" when she clearly was. I was genuinely trying to be nice but she was so rude to me and my group so many times. I am out of town celebrating my friends birthday. I was hanging out with other locals and they told me that she's very rude to them all the time. Service is horrible with her. Almost ruined the experience if it wasn't for the games there. read more

Stopped in last Saturday for a beer after going for a (bike ride) route-scout with my girl who was gonna be riding her unicycle (I rode my rode-bike:) in the Mermaid Duathlon the next day. I've been there before so I knew it was a bit dark and probably would be quite on a Saturday afternoon. We arrived with an expired Groupon, expecting to have one beer after our ride to Freedom Blvd. and ended up spending a couple of hours, watching football, golf and having lunch from Takara with our new friend Todd (manning the bar) and a couple of other nice guys who were friends of his. Stopping in there was the perfect fit before cleaning-up and heading off to our first party...I was having so much fun talking sports and just shootin'-the-shit it was hard to leave. Thanks Todd - love making new friends!!! read more

We just went to FAST EDDYS to play pool ... lots of fun .. now I am not billiard brawler.. I barely hit the cue stick into the ball and I am not even sure that is what you call them .. the place open and airy so no one can really tell if you suck like I do.. I mean, I am really good at lots of things.. baking, bbq'ing, quilting, horses, nutrition.. but playing pool is not one of them... it makes it nice when I can practice and play with no pressure and no one eagle eyeing me! I hate that! There you are.. staring down this long polished stick .... and there they are.. the lurkers.. all watching to see you either eat it or make it.. its stressful man!! For reals! Like watch your own game so I can pretend I am a pool shark over hereah!! (((Yes HEREAH IS A WORD!!)))) But alas.. there you are.. skunking it in front of the looky-loos! :/ UGH HAHA Well, not at Fast Eddys.. people seem to mind their own business and though once in a while you get someone making eye contact, its not in the aggressive gang banger bar brawl competitive stare down kind.. not yet anyways. Back in the day this place used to have quite the few homie G's wanting to throw down left and right.. but luckily that fad has seemed to mellow down quite a bit.. at least the couple times I have come in lately. Seems to be more of a mellow cool crowd who likes pool, poker and small talk. Sounds good to me! read more

It's a dive/hole in the wall but I like it. There's always a table available, prices are reasonable, and parking is easy. It's my go to pool hall in the area. It's a relaxed, no frills joint to just chill with friends or by yourself. read more

Saw a bunch of bad reviews before I went and I didn't know what they were talking about. Besides the bathroom being old Everyone was friendly read more

Imagine if someone threw a party at a billiards club in 1982 and never cleaned up. I don't mind dive bars, but this is a pool hall, at least get some sticks that aren't more crooked than a ...nevermind. read more

Have you ever had a craving for a steak? No side dishes, no sauces or toppings, just a slab of beef, with maybe a little dash of salt and pepper at most? Well sometimes I feel the same way about my bars (and pool halls). Sometimes I don't need my bar to have a bunch of signature cocktails, artistic lighting, and unique decor. Sometimes I just want to post up with a cold beer or a neat bourbon and have an unassuming kind of evening. Fast Eddy's is your typical dirty dive billiard and bar that hasn't changed in decades. I've never had a bad time there, the staff is always very friendly, and it's a great place to unwind after work. The best part of all is that it turns out that hipsters are like zombies: it'll take em awhile to wander away from their hubs. It's proximity away from UCSC and downtown SC has allowed it to remain hipster free and proud. read more

See all

Awesome hangout spot, great beer and extremely amazing staff. I highly recommend coming hear to play some pool, eat some bar food and or just hangout and talk to the staff. read more

Just what you want if you're looking for a fun dive bar with pool. It's huge inside, surprisingly big! Everyone here is friendly and there's lots of leagues playing on different nights which is fun to watch. read more

Fast Eddy's gets a 4 star rating from me simply because it's so nice to actually see a pool hall/billards place that's fun, rowdy, and what you would consider, the *typical* pool hall scene. Yeah. I think I had one of my movie moments, where I felt like I was in "Dazed and Confused" while I was playing pool here. The energy emanating from the patrons here will definitely get you pumped up to drink beer, play pool and have a great time. The music selection is quirky- they played everything from Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance" to Guns and Roses's "Sweet Child o Mine". And most importantly, the pool hall area was large and clean! They have 2 stories, with 3 different rooms to play pool in, so you don't bump into people as they're gearing up to take the shot at the 8 ball. As I look into my magic 8 ball, I for see that I will be visiting Fast Eddy's more in the future! read more

Now, while I am not the best pool player in the world, I love fast eddy's! I went there for a friend birthday, and because the place is all ages we thought why not? Friendly staff, nice place, we ended up getting the back room and just had so much fun all night. One less star because of only serving beer and wine. Oh well, I made due on Mike's Hard Lemonade haha. read more
