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.

They have buckets of ping pong balls, and ball attendants who come around and "sweep" up errant balls, so you don't have to chase after a ball... just use a new one. That's service... what a great idea! The people are friendly, the bartenders are great... drinks are good... and appreciate it's well staffed. VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

I can't say enough about Boston Billiard Emporium. Tremendous customer service and incredible…read moreskill. My table is more than 90 years old with enormous sentimental value. When I decided to have it refurbished, I reached out to several pool table shops around New England. Nobody instilled confidence like Stephen from Boston Billiards. A five minute conversation is all it took for me to know that this was the company I wanted to do the job. They took a worn and tired 1928 Brunswick and turned it into a showpiece. I'll never go anywhere else for my pool table needs.

I used to love this place, but unfortunately it's turned into nothing more than a money grab…read more The bathrooms are consistently filthy, and the staff act like they don't even want to be there. Today really sealed it for me. We came to celebrate my son's 10th birthday, and when we arrived, the internet was down so it was cash only--but there was no sign on the outside door. You don't find out until after you walk in, which already starts the experience off wrong. The manager working tonight (glasses, thinning blonde/gray hair) was incredibly rude and condescending. Zero customer service skills and no empathy whatsoever. He didn't seem to care that multiple machines were broken or malfunctioning: * Air hockey had no airflow and didn't keep score * Connect Four Hoops (red side) was playing by itself * Motorcycle games charged but wouldn't start * Basketball games were missing balls * Several other machines weren't working properly Instead of addressing any of this, he was selectively handing out game cards to other customers while repeatedly ignoring my son--the birthday boy--and our family. While we were waiting for food, he came over and asked whose birthday it was, as if I hadn't already told him earlier. Then he made a sarcastic comment saying, "clearly from the sign on the door." Completely unnecessary and unprofessional. There are way too many better options out there to spend this kind of money and be treated this way. I won't be coming back. 0/10 experience.

Great deals with dining and being able to get chips to use to play after dining depending on what you order. Signing up for D&B card and app is a must since they sometimes give free offers to incentivize you to go to D&B. Wednesdays are half off all games which is also great! The sriracha honey wings are the best! Not too spicy at all and very good. The barbacoa fries were okay. Kids love pretzels, chicken tenders, and pretzel dogs, so those are always a given when coming here. Fun place to go and eat first! Really glad they have friendly, nice, and kind ppl working in the arcade sections, human crane (super cool and new), and the ticketing section to collect your prizes after playing. We always have fun here!

A little-known secret is that Cronin's has an amazing seafood special every summer: lobsters and…read moresteamers! You can order single or twin lobsters or even a lobster bake. I've included at least one trip to Cronin's every summer with my family for a few years now. We get some twin lobsters and steamers and have ourselves a good old-fashioned New England lobster and clam bake. Besides the seafood specials, the pub selections at Cronin's are on point, especially their succulent teriyaki wings. Forget napkins; leave that sauce on your lips to savor it for a while. Their loaded nachos are always generous and filling. The steak tips are to die for! One of Quincy's best! The atmosphere is not pretentious. It is a great local bar and restaurant. This is a typical meeting spot for my friends and I when we find a reason to get together. Mike, the owner, is always appreciative and attentive when we show up as a big group. He also hires the best bartenders and wait staff. They are wonderful.
