The first band came out and the bass player and guitar player had them adjust their levels up. But they never turned up the vocals, so we could not hear the singer. When the next act came out, they immediately noticed and kept having to turn up the mics. Hang Your Hate and TROY put on a great show. Thanks everyone in the bands and behind the scenes.

ONE OF THE BEST TIMES EVER!…read more We just moved to Columbia and decided to have a night out. After asking around we had a good list of bars and night clubs to hit up. Sidelines was our 1st stop. We got there around 8:30 pm and it was laid back with that sports bar feel. Then around 10 it happened. It went from a sports bar to all out club. They had a DJ, People were dancing. It was so much fun. (We never left). The drinks were on point. (None of that watered-down stuff.) And they have great prices. The staff was amazing, All the bartenders were awesome. And the owner went and got the beer I drank because they didn't carry it. That is what I call real service. They were all very nice and made me and my wife feel like part of the family. We really enjoyed ourselves. This is my new spot. (BIG UPS TO SIDELINES) Yes 5 stars and we will be back.

I usually just sit at the bar and conversate with the staff and regulars. It is one of the very few establishments on the north end of town and caters to a diverse clientele. Usually, I go just for the wings. They may be one of the best kept secrets for hot wings in town. They cook them in outdoor fryers. A warning though, if you order the Cajun ones, you will need several glasses of water. They have catfish on Fridays and it likewise is incredible. The staff here is very friendly and accommodating. When I first went they didn't have my choice of whiskey, but they promised to stick it for me next time I came in. Sure enough, I went back and they kept their word. Plus, they tolerate me. That's not an easy task. One time, I loaded the juke box with 2 hours of Richard Cheese music and nobody seemed to mind.

I had a Billiard's Burger, fries and buffalo wings. It was all excellent, the burger was huge, well seasoned with fresh lettuce, onions and tomato, the fries were hot, fresh sliced and lightly salted. The wings were as good as I've ever had. I smoke my own wings and am particular when it comes to wings. They were perfectly cooked and coated, the sauce was excellent. I will have them again soon! Kinda sad I've not been previously, I'd be a regular but am relocating soon!

I was in Columbia for a family wedding and Billiards was on the list of recommended restaurants. In…read morethe description and recommendation, it said that the burgers here were a favorite of both groom and bride. Even the grooms father insisted on eating at Billiards whenever he was in town. With all those recommendations, I knew where I was dining my first night in town. I was just a short stroll down from my hotel, so it was easy to get there. Lucky for me, I arrived at the perfect time. Shortly after my arrival, the place filled up. I took a seat at the bar and after reading the menu, I made my choices. For my adult beverage, I chose, Hide Tide a craft beer from the local brewery, Logboat. I also went with the, Logboat Burger. It's a burger served on a pretzel bun, with bacon, jalapeno and a house made Snapper IPA beer cheese. I had them hold the tomato. Their fries are fresh cut from Idaho potatoes and they are hand cut according to the menu. Fresh fries are the best. My bartender/server was attentive and it was fun watching the cooks prepare all the burgers on a grill directly behind the bar. The bar is very casual, and it's exactly what Professor Hill was singing about in, Music Man. All burger lovers have to stop by Billiards and enjoy one of the best, if not the best burger in Columbia.

As opposed to the last hookah lounge I was in, this place has very ambient lighting, which makes it a very relaxing place. I feel like I could come here and work, as if I was in a coffee shop. The music is not pop culture, and it makes the establishment have an authentic feel. Different styles of music keep it interesting. Throughout my stay, I was serviced with new coals without asking. That once again is good service. Enjoyed it through and through

No beers on tap, which isn't a deal breaker if you're ok drinking standard beers. They do have some super inexpensive specials throughout the the week, including beer and hard liquor. Overall, not our scene. Seems to be mostly regulars and there isn't really any atmosphere to speak of (it's a big, open room that echoes). The service is friendly and the cost is cheap. If you live close and want a cheap meal, this is a decent option. I would not drive out of the way to eat here.
