    If you are looking for a late-night thing to do other than Bowling where to bring your teenager and their friends, this is a great spot, it's a Fun and Friendly environment to play billiards. Always have a line whenever we come but waiting time goes quickly coz they have Plenty of Billiard Tables. Extra chairs for parents like us while waiting for them are plenty around to sit in. The Game my wife paid for the kids is per hour and she usually gets 2 or 3 billiard tables. Parking is hard when every other business place is still open, so we always come here when every other store or restaurant is closed.

    Nice place to play billiards with friends/family. My husband and I come here often. Parking can be tricky Friday-Sunday but not the fault of the business. Employees are usually kind and helpful which makes the experience much better. Waiting time can be long depending on days but mostly in the evenings so be prepared to wait. This establishment does not sell food but they do sell drinks and some snacks here. Nice thing is, you can bring in food and drinks from outside but just be courteous and don't leave a mess. *Website states reviews get you 20% off but it wasn't honored when presented which was a bummer.

    Very chill spot, Tables are in great condition, and free parking, Table rentals are $17 per hour on Fridays. I go often.

    Lots of 9ft Diamond tables!

    Enjoyed some rounds of pool while waiting for our restaurant reservation next door. Great spot to hang out. Good pricing and nice felts. Service was down to earth and welcoming. Larger snooker table at the entrance. Regular walk in tables on the right side and pros tables on the left. Looks a little sketchy from the exterior but it's a cool spot to hang. Young families, teens and silver sneakers were all enjoying the game in good company.

    Fun thing to do with your friends on a night out. The table is only $16 an hour and you're able to order drinks and request songs. They have an app and it's only $5 to request 5 songs. It was very cool. I almost wish they had a real bar with a bartender, but that's okay. The ambiance was really chill in there and we all had a great time.

    After coming from Skateworld, these Teens were still not tired and wanted to hang out together still. So we found this place in CONVOY called " O BILLIARD CAFE ". My husband and I were okay with their plan to have fun more for the day since they are in School Thanks Giving Break already. This place is very Cool, it has 14 Billiards tables. And it's open until 1 a.m SUNDAY to MONDAY and until 2 a.m FRIDAY and SATURDAY, and the best part under 18 years Old are allowed anytime! And to play is $15 per table per hour. They have Bar and also none - alcohol drinks. Parking is tight 'coz there are so many restaurants around the area . RYAN and JERRY at the customer service ... both Cool guys ! Very nice to my son and his friends! Its already 11 pm and we are still out here playing Billiards at this moment 11 / 20 / 2022 ;)

I came here again last night with friends and began to check in for our reservation with the bartender (the same bartender who had let me in the last time I was here). He spent a long time inspecting my CA REAL ID before going into the back. He returned and said he can't let me in since he doesn't trust my ID. He said store policy is that they have to be able to feel the imprint on your license's signature, which even he admitted that he could, but it was too faded so he wouldn't let me in. I showed him matching credit cards, Costco membership, and CA DMV mobile drivers license, but he still refused and pleaded ignorance. He gave me my driver's license back and said I'm lucky because he normally keeps fakes (thanks for the empty threat). In reality, he knew my license was legitimate and didn't want to have the cops called on him. This place really needs to update their policies and train their staff better on how to identify legitimate IDs. I'm definitely not gong to bother coming here again and will make sure I recommend others not to come here.

Their drink menu fits the speakeasy vibe where there's a lot of ingredients most people wouldn't know, so my friend and I did have to ask a few questions. I ended up settling on the Seoul City Hipster, which was the best drink for both of us. Very refreshing and flavorful! My friend got the Mountain Turtle (it was okay overall. The celery foam was different and definitely tasted like celery) to try before switching to my drink for her second. Foodwise, we split the 52 Burger and 12oz Bone-In Pork Loin. The burger was just okay - cooked well, but a bit dry. The pork loin was the real star! While it didn't look quite like the picture, the pork was cooked and seasoned very well. The only downside for the dish was that the egg was overcooked and wasn't runny. My friend enjoyed the cheesecake she ordered as well. I didn't try it since I don't like cheesecake. Would love to come back here again and see what new seasonal menu items they've come up with!

As we parked I realized this was the former location for Council Brewing (RIP - I liked their bourbon barrel aged stout btw). Other than the large wooden council table removed and obvious branding & decor changes, the general layout looked familiar. We received a warm, friendly welcome from Remy, who shared the brewery concept and backstory. Sampled beers from their list of six offerings and said we would return. Additional return visits and fast forward to 2026 with Hopnonymous Brewing doing quite well. The front patio is built out with additional seating, table space, and another tv screen to accommodate beer loving sports fans. The rotating food truck and pop-up kitchen schedule offers a variety of eats in with Trivia Tuesdays. Hop beertenders are very nice and a positive reflection of Remy's hospitality. Customer service is key. Until next time...Cheers!

    The Break Room - The Only Room I Take a Break In. Tremendous Balls, People!…read more Let me tell you--The Break Room is absolutely fantastic. Incredible name. Beautiful place. When I heard it was a pool bar, I thought we were talking swimming, folks. Brought my red trunks and everything. But no--billiards! Way better. Much drier. Very smart move. You walk in, and boom--TVs everywhere. Sports on every screen. Football, baseball, golf, even one showing curling. Yes, curling. I said, "Is this Canada?" But it was San Diego, and it was perfect. The energy? Electric. Like a MAGA rally but with more nachos and slightly fewer chants. Now the pool tables--wow. Pristine. Leveled like the electoral map in 2016. The cue sticks? Strong. Straight. Tremendous aim. I sank the 8-ball on my third turn. People were clapping. One guy cried. He said, "That was the most patriotic shot I've ever seen." It was. Drinks? Ice cold. Beers from every country, even ones I've put tariffs on. Cocktails? Dangerous. I had something called "The Break Down." Delicious. Very strong. One sip and you start believing you could run the country. (Which I have. Twice.) The food? Classic bar food but next level. Wings that are huge--not like those little flappy ones you get at the sad chains. These are American Eagle wings, folks. The kind of wings that deserve a salute. And the people--salt of the earth. Beautiful people. Great conversations. I told one guy I used to own a football team, and he said, "That explains your arm." Very flattering. Might give him a cabinet position. Final thoughts: The Break Room is where champions unwind. Great games, great drinks, even better company. If you're looking to shoot some pool, shout at the TV, and drink something cold while looking amazing doing it--this is your bar. Would I go back? I never left. They gave me my own locker.
