Three stars is very GENEROUS. This review is based on a single experience so take it with a grain of salt. Also, transparently this place is just not my vibe. So maybe you'd have a better time than I did. Decent music was playing at a comfortable volume. I came here with several coworkers for a team activity. Their billiards tables all seemed clean and all the equipment was in good condition. I'm not a billiards fan though, so I really needed the food to be good for a decent experience. I ordered the burger and fries. Burger: 0/5. This was by far the worst cheeseburger I have tasted for as long as I can remember. I only had a bite and I put it down and pushed it away so I didn't have to look at it anymore. The meat looked weird and gray. It was very greasy and tasted odd. Texture was off. I wish I could describe all this better! Just don't order it. Fries: 4/5. The fries tasted fine - warm, crispy, salty. But nothing memorable/special. Extremely spicy wings: 5/5. My coworkers ordered some wings to share which were ridiculously hot and extremely tasty. I love spicy food and these wings were fire!!! Disappointment: I wanted some utensils to share dessert. I tried flagging servers a couple of times but wasn't successful. So I walked towards the bar and noticed an open window looking into their kitchen/back area towards the left. I wish I didn't see what I saw ... I just didn't feel comfortable using any utensils/plates after I saw how dishes were being handled. I left a few minutes after. read more

Sweet hang out spot - very clean, air-conditioned, plenty of pool tables, flat-screens almost everywhere, clean-ish bathrooms, and some finger food on the menu. Plenty of cue sticks for playing, tables are situated very near your pool table, and who could say no to a 5L tower of beer!? I'm not sure how they fill this without wasting some beer, but this thing is pretty ridiculous. You don't quite get 5L of beer as most of it is foam though. You'll also be pouring beer from this at a very slow rate as pouring any faster will give you said foam. You can also order a 2L 'bottle' of beer if this is too much for you. Wish they had more non-alcoholic beverages for sipping on like more variety of jugo. The lemonade I ordered was EXTREMELY sweet and a bit hard to stomach. read more

We came three days in a roll while visiting Ensenada. We had the best services and the drinks were cheap, thats why we kept going back. We definitely had a good time. The bartender and manager were really friendly and accommodated to our needs. Definitely a great place to go chill, drink, eat, and place billiards. read more

This is the best pool hall and wings and beer place. When we went inside the atmosphere is very positive and relaxing. The person I recommend is Gustavo Bustos is the best entertaining waiter who know how to treat their customers the way you wanted to be treated and then some. The least one would want is any hassle in ordering food , alcohol or getting the billiards started. I had a great time and any one who does will say they have had the best service they ever received from Gustavo will Be here at pockets Tijuana. read more

Have been here three times now and every single time the waiters try to rob you on your bill. They try to tell you the total without showing you the receipt. When I asked for the receipt I noticed a 10% "service fee" added on and it's not even labeled... They're clearly hoping to be tipped twice. On top of that, when you add up the items that you ordered on a calculator, it never matches the total they show (hand written receipts here instead of electronic).. They always "screw up the math in their favor" by trying to add an additional 50 pesos in there.. My bill went from 650 pesos (what he told me), down to 530 after I added up the items on my own, right in front of him. Guess who didn't get a tip! The same thing happens every single time I go, it's a shame its a nice pool hall. Service sucks and is slow, food is bland and cold, only thing they have going for them is the pool tables and the TV's & Music. Avoid the place! If you get stuck going, make sure to get out your Iphone and add up the line items to check the total.. I bet it will be inflated. Hopefully the owner or manager will read this and make a change, you've lost a customer in me for sure already. read more

What a Beautiful place. Million dollar place with $0.05 service. It took over 30 minutes NOT to get drinks because we never got them from 2 different waiters. We planned to spend all evening here and spend a lot of money but the service killed it. We finally went to the bar tender and he offered us free Drinks for the inconvenience but we refused. I thought we had found our new hang out place in TJ whee the service is always great but not here. This place is well put together and plenty of large TV's all over the place and the food looked good but our waiters never even offered us a menu. read more

They helped my nephew before he died from cancer, he said it was the best day of his life. He was 24 years old and they gave him a happy day party where we knew nothing about but but I asked for a drink for him to be happy, he was blown away so were we. If you can imagine a pool player who lost a arm to cancer then to find pockets where they taught him he could do it then he won with one arm! He died a week later but always told me about the best day of his life, and that was pockets in T.J. Now we go there to honor him. Everyone who knew Jr. Please go there and thank them for the gift they gave this special young man and loved one. read more
