Smoking no longer allowed inside so you dont leave smelling like an ashtray, some new pool tables, well lit and music was on point as well (or you can take over the juke box and play what you like). For the smoker's, there is a nice little patio area to enjoy outside. Will def be back next time I'm visiting and would recommend to friends who live in the area.

I stopped in recently because I was in the mood for a divey bar experience and was astonished when I wasn't hit in the face with a cloud of smoke when I opened the door. It's a total game changer. Apparently they're under new ownership and they've cleaned up the inside and decor, and (obviously) there's no smoking anymore. The pool tables and the dart boards are high quality and the people working there are really nice and helpful. I'm looking forward to having a nice place to play pool on this side of town!

The racquet club advertises itself as having a pool, weight room, rball courts and tennis courts…read more To be honest, the pool and weight room are mediocre at best, about what you'd expect to find at an apartment complex. The tennis courts aren't anything spectacular but they do seem to be kept in good shape. That being said, I don't use any of those facilities. I only use the rball courts. There are 3 indoor courts housed on the premises that are perfectly usable. But, to be honest they also show signs of wear and tear. The reason it gets 4 stars from me is that it's an available indoor rball court in Gainesville that doesn't require you to have student ID. Which makes it really the only game in town. On top of that, most of the other clients are friendlier older couples or families, so you won't have to worry about a hostile environment. Fees have recently increased from $35/month to $40/month for the rball membership, but I suspect that's because they've recently redone the clubhouse (which actually looks nice). This gives me hope that they actually have plans to update the rest of their facilities as well.

I really DID enjoy losing every match by an average margin of 13 points. Thanks, sweetie :) Membership is $35/month, which to my limited experience with sports dues, seems fairly inexpensive for open access. Members are very friendly. I can't remember the last time so many strangers waved at me!

Our children have been involved in Gainesville YSI for about four years now. Man how time flies…read more The entire league is composed of volunteers who have one simple mission: teaching children the fundamentals of soccer while making sure they have a great attitude about it. We have been fortunate enough to have landed on some really great teams. Sandy and her crew do what they can to ensure that siblings are either on the same team (if their age grouping works out) or that they at least are on teams that share the same practice field, making life so much easier for the parents. Nearly everyone is there to see the kids have fun. Sure, there can be some rather obnoxious parents that take the games a bit too seriously, but as a whole, everyone is extremely supportive and kind to one another. If you are a parent looking for a soccer league to put your kids in, YSI is definitely a good one. Two weekday practices, followed by a game on Saturday. The rare, occasional Sunday games are always after 2pm, so if you are active in a church, you won't miss out. They are also always accepting donations of used soccer equipment for the kids in the league who are in need. Good sponsors, great kids, and a fun way to spend early fall and late spring. Soccer season usually runs from late September to late November and picks back up around mid March until May.

They have a little restaurant with decent food and you can take a shower in the locker room when you're done playing if we were informed that if we go with a group again with more than eight, we should call and make a reservation for a discounted price. I come here every year for the PPA tournament in December and really enjoy it

We stopped in to meet neighborhood friends for dinner and conversation. We started out with drinks and a large charcuterie board.

There were hardly anyone there in the weekday morning You can get your own court or jump in with people. It was great to practice, train and play some great games.
