I was playing with my homie and before we were gonna break to start a game, he tells me we need to use a cloth underneath the white ball first otherwise we could damage the tables. I've never heard of this. I asked him multiple times why and to example n to me the logic. With this rule you could basically mess up the cloth after every hit. This idiot don't even introduce himself or anything, he just starting talking to us like we were ten year old and he was our dad. Also, he never did this shit with any other table there. There are also no signs anywhere of this rule. He pretty much killed our vibe and we left. We're grown ass men, if we fuck up your table so be it but why the fuck are you coming up to us and where we're half drunk trying to talk to us like you're our dad. Not coming back.

DRINKS Thai iced tea slushie tasted like desert in drink form and was delicious. Nick the bartender was so accommodating and did a great job helping me decide what to order since there were a couple of options I was eyeing. The drinks were average price. SERVICE Great, the games were self service and the bar tops were manned so you just head over when you want to get a drink. AMBIANCE It was a very chill and free flowing environment. The place is a vintage theater turned into a barcade, and I love what they did. It's so spacious, has multiple floors, and the high ceilings make the space even more open. They have huge games on the top floor next to the bar which were so much fun! They had movies being projected onto a huge wall visible from every floor. There's music playing but you can still hear well enough to have a conversation. They had classic to new games. Some of them were free. I was unsure of how I'd like it before going but SO GLAD I went. Great for a fun date or just hanging out with your friends. I could also see it being a fun place to have a bday party. I'll be visiting again the next time I'm in San Francisco. Check this place out! Trust me it's worth a visit.

I love that it's multi-leveled and has high ceilings as it makes it feel more spacious, because it can get crowded. There is a wide variety of arcade games and pinball machines with various wait times depending on the crowd. They also have plenty of large screens all around that run games, movies, and or music videos. Drinks at the bar aren't bad and like others have mentioned, the bartenders can be a hit or miss. I've encountered several chill bartenders, others not so much. Same goes for the security at the entrance. Overall, Emporium is a fun venue to check out if you are in the area.

But some friends were playing on the Tuesday night, music jam, so we went down to hear them. I don't doubt other people's experiences who had a negative time. But I have to say as an older woman who walked into a bar I've never been to wearing a mask ordering drinks. I had a fabulous time. Nobody gave me a hassle, nobody commented on my mask or made any comments, and I had a couple of questions about the beers that the bartender answered pleasantly, even though it was quite busy. I have to say if I was going to go back to going into bars, I would definitely go to the Page. I found everyone there who worked there and the people hanging out really friendly even though I'm not the typical clientele. They have a really good happy hour and lots of beers on tap. Can't speak to the wine, but there's someone mentioned that's not the best. I don't usually feel comfortable in places where every single person is way way younger than me, but I felt fine here. I'll definitely go back again for the music. And the beer.

All teams make it to playoffs, so it is a pretty long season. You can play a maximum of 4 games per match. Starts at 7:30 and goes until at least 10:30 most nights. They have a really good website and post updates on Facebook as well, so it is very easy to get information. All the board members have been very responsive to my millions of questions (we started a new team this season). They also have a lot of additional tournaments throughout the season to keep your competitive juices flowing on non-Tuesday nights. This league is BCA-sanctioned and qualifies you for the May BCA big shinding (this year at the Riveria, will move to the Rio in 2012). You've never seen so much pool porn in your life than at the BCA Vegas - rows and rows and rows of bar box tables, separate rooms of full-sized tables, pros mingling with the oh-so-not-worthy masses... two weeks of events, mini tourneys, gadgets and pool equipment...

I enjoy playing billiards here.  It is a respectful, clean, and nice billiards hall. Not like the dungeon shady billiards that exist in San Francisco. The staff are friendly too.  Especially Joe! A few things that would make the place better are lighting the overhead, " Town and Country Billiards sign outside above the entrance, and with the entrance step light.  The working overhead  light sign would attract more patrons.

Back then, the wall cues were usable--you only needed to check if one was straight. This time (August 2025), not a single wall cue was in playable condition. Many had cracked ferrules, and the felt on the table shifted under my bridge hand. For $10/hr, I was charged $8.25 for only 20 minutes of table time, which felt unreasonable. What really concerns me is the bigger picture. If a newcomer curious about pool stumbled into this environment, I doubt they'd want to come back. Facilities like this should be introducing people to the fun and quality of cue sports--not turning them away.
