    Cool pool hall!
    Ashley I.

    On a spontaneous trip to Gainesville we were in the mood for some pool. We saw good reviews for Palomino and decided to give it a try. We were pleasantly surprised with this Billiard and loved the atmosphere. This pool hall is not your typical one! They offer a modern, fun atmosphere with a good variety of fun. The decor is really trendy. The lights offer a great ambiance. It's not a huge space and they were smart enough to add small shelfs under each pool table for drinks and plenty convenient seating. This pool hall offers a variety of fun. The center of attention is the pool tables. They have around 8 pool tables or more. They also have ping pong, air hockey and more. It can get a bit crowded but they manage to meet the floor clean and have open tables. The music is awesome and they were even playing power rangers on the tv. Prices here amazed us Orlando folks. There is no cover and it's 21 +. It was $8 a hour for pool including as many people as you want. Drinks were excellent prices all ranging from $7-10. They offer a great variety of beers and cocktails. I had a Moscow Mule for only $7 and my boyfriend had a nitro Guinness for $5. Overall it's a super fun bar and it's a extra perk that they don't allow smoking in the bar. I highly suggest stopping here for good ol fun.

    Recently I went to Polomino Pool Hall with a few friends and had a really nice time! When you walk in the first thing you see is the pool tables which to me is a obvious thing since it is a pool hall. They have about 8 maybe less pool tables. On a Wednesday night this place was packed with people playing pool so I am sure it's jammed pack in the summers. For the bars they have two an indoor bar and a outdoor bar. Both are really nice and offer up good cheap drinks. Beers and mixed drinks are pretty cheap here. My friend gave me $5 for a beer and I think it was $3 so that's not bad at all! One thing I did not know is this pool hall is owned by Boca Fiesta. I had no idea until I checked my credit card statement. I was like when did I eat at Boca and then noticed the price I paid and put two and two together. Wish they would have a sign that says that somewhere. Overall a great little place and I will for sure be back!

    Palomino Pool Hall is an all-around chill place to hang out with friends. *not the place to get as trashed as everyone in midtown* My fellow pharmacy student classmates and I have found ourselves here countless number of times on a Friday night. Not only is there no cover, but the drinks are diverse and taste great, and there's plenty to entertain from the pool tables to the foosball table. The Backyard is also located in the back for anyone wanting a more clubby atmosphere (cover is always $5). Palomino's always has a good beer and cider selection to choose from for good prices. However, I always get the Long Island Iced Tea. No other place in Gainesville makes them as well as Palomino's so far. 4 stars instead of 5 because you'll find yourself struggling to carry out a conversation amongst the people playing pool without getting hit by a cue. I wish the area was larger so this wouldn't be a problem.

    Ok spot. Over 7 pool tables. Happy hour. Bartenders are a little cold, but fortunately the beer is too.

The beer is cold, the pool is fun and its the type of place you just can enjoy a drink with your buds and have fun! This place has become a favorite for locals and visitors!

I highly recommend this place!

    So, I had been waiting all day to watch the Montreal v. Buffalo playoff match…read more Montreal was up 2-1 in the series, and they usually don't get this far in the playoffs! So I was keyed up! I got my Publix hot and spicy wings and my Carolina bbq sauce, and all I needed was a beer and a screen. (Did you know you can bring your own food into Silver Q? You can get take-out, bring your own, or order delivery...yup) Anyway, there was a billards tournament going on, so when I asked the bartender to put it on the game, SHE PUT IT ON THE BIG SCREEN!! Wow!! Unfortunately, after watching the match and enjoying my spicy chicken and Yuenglings for THREE HOURS, my bartender took a break, and another bartender changed the channel, with 4 MINUTES LEFT IN THE GAME! It took the wind out of my sails! I walked up and told her, and asked her to change it back, but she got busy making drinks for other people, and so I just closed out my tab and left. Maybe next time, I'll go to a dedicated sports bar, and only come here, when I want to play pool...yeah, that's the ticket!

And we didn't want to eat fast food or at a chain restaurant. There was no one else in the large dining room so we decided to sit at the bar. You can't see the bar from the dining room as you must walk through a door. The bar was nice with pads along the edge and hooks underneath to hang your purse. The bartender was friendly and attentive. I ordered fried fish which came with hushpuppies and fries. My lunch was deliscious! The fish was fresh and there was the perfect amount of breading (not too much). The straw fries were hot and yummy. I only ate half and took the rest home for dinner. There was a huge outdoor patio in the back. And both the dining room and patio had stages for live music. This spot had dive vibes but was super clean (even the bathroom). I tasted my friends burger and it was fabulous! I wanted both my meal and my friends meal lol! I highly recommend you stop in and try SOS!
