    Pool hall
    David T.

    The pool tables are nice. Beers are solid. Cool vibe. I get the 1 star reviews about the bartenders and can see will there are many one star reviews about service of the bartenders.

    Great bar, great bar tenders, and killer pinball lineup. Best place to waste a Saturday.

    Don't pay with card here. I left a $20 tip on a $70 tab and I was then charged another $30 on the card

    Good music, cheap beer, solid pinball selection. The hot dogs are good too. I love Flat Top Johnny's and go a couple times a month.

    Average bar. Can get very loud. A lot of space for pool, and bar folks pretty responsive. The food was good, but VERY fried

    Food was delicious and the pool was really fun! But bartenders were slow and extremely rude, so probably won't be back.

    This place should be great, but the tables are in disrepair…read more The vibe fine - charming almost. Not much to it beyond pool and that's all it needs to be. The owner is either grumpy or friendly, depends on his mood or whether it not he knows you. Hard to blame him, as too many people do stupid things in there (don't put your drink near the table!) But what makes this place so poor is the table quality. It could be great. It should be great. He goes through the work to clean the felt every night, but can't bother to re-felt or re-level the tables? Every rail is dead, the felt is warn and cheap cloth to begin with, none of the tables are level, and most of the pockets are busted or taped together. Experienced players will find these tables are unplayable. If you're used to running racks in 2-3 turns, prepare to do it in 4-5 instead. Good luck shaping your shots when the bounce off the rail is a guess. Good luck with speed control when the ball dies instantly when it touches the rail. It's sad - because this place should be great. They have 5 8-ball tables and 3 3 cushion tables. The 3 cushion tables are rarely used. If he swapped one or two of those out for 8 ball, he'd make more money. Then use that money to level the tables, re-felt and get new rails. Seriously, a bit of re-investment into this place would do wonders for business. No serious pool player can go there now, you're better off at Amazin in Malden. Take care of the tables just a bit and you'd end up with more serious players tehre more regularly. not just more business, but better business, cuz the better players won't be ruining the tables. Right now it's a bad spiral, the only players that come are those that don't know any better, and they're exactly the type to spill drinks on the felt and generally perpetuate the owner's grumpy mood. He can be nice too - just don't be an idiot!

    Do NOT go here. I was told the rate was $18/hour, but I was charged $22. When I asked why, the…read moreowner said, "It's an extra $2 for using a debit card." That still doesn't explain the full $4 difference--shouldn't it be $20, not $22? He added another $2 after the card fee, which makes no sense. It was my first time, so I didn't know whether or not we were supposed to press the timer--but I did. I admitted it was my mistake, but the owner kept making a big deal about it instead of simply explaining the policy. Terrible customer service. Won't be coming back.
