The tournament director Richard told me I can have a table in the back. I played only 30 mins and had to head out, he offered to pay for our table time! His sister owns the place and said thank you guys for visiting. Definitely going back and paying for sure.

I live in Oregon, but come to town several times a year to visit my family. I play league pool and…read moream always on the hunt for great places to play when traveling. I came upon Shooters by chance. Now I won't play anywhere else! Paula, the owner, is an avid player herself and keeps the tables in great shape. The service is fantastic. Whether it's April, Amy, Jen, or Gabby at the bar, they're checking in frequently and quick on a drink order. They seem to have tournaments running every night, with Phil running them. I especially like the 3 ball tournaments at 10:00!

This is the Stix formerly located on West Central, moved to 27th and S. Meridian…read more Stix is first and foremost a pool hall. A gigantic one, at that (located in a former strip mall). Drinks are reasonably priced, the drink specials are great (Friday night 32oz tankards for 3.75!). Selection is enormous for south of Kellogg. 40 different Rums, 20 beers on tap, huge selection of domestics and imports (I even saw a 12 of Schlitz in the cooler, who the hell drinks Schlitz any more?) The service is friendly and attentive, and they dress up for theme nights on Fridays. There is also poker 7 nights a week, but they are moving the poker lounge to a building in front of the main building to make room for more pool tables. If you are Karaoke-averse, this place NEVER has karaoke, so you can count on not having to listen to that on any night of the week. The interactive touch jukebox hosts a pretty good mix of music, and the patrons take full advantage of it. It's not uncommon to hear Travis Tritt, DevilDriver, Stevie Ray, Clutch, and Tom Waits within an evening, and no dirty looks from the staff (they're pretty open-minded about people playing what they want on their dime). The menu is variations of traditional fare. Burgers, franks, sandwiches, appetizers. Most of it artery-clogging comfort goodness, but I can vouch the turkey sandwich on wheat is one of the best in town, as well. Bar is pirate-themed, which adds to the fun, and the staff really get into the spirit of things. Also includes bike parking, for those of you out on a ride. The place is well large enough that you can come out on a busy night without getting claustrophobia. If you're looking for Old Town drink selection without the pretension and the premium prices, give this place a try.

While Jason B. is right on the money a few things have been added/changed. Stix Poker is now in the…read morebuilding out front, with proceeds going to charity. Stix now has 24 pool tables with (3) 9 footers. The bar boxes are new Valley tables and accept 1, 5, and 10 dollar bills with price breaks accordingly. Pool is $1 per game or get 8 games for $5, and 20 games for $10 (50 cents a game!). The north bar (yep, two bars) is available for special occasions/private parties (Contact the manager or owners for more information). Stix is also a cigar friendly bar and has a good selection of single malt scotches for the adventurous. Friday and Saturday nights they have 8-Ball tournaments starting at 10:30 and Sunday night there is a 9-Ball tournament starting at 8:30ish. Spring in-house pool leagues are now forming M-Th 8-Ball 4 person teams, 14 week session. Dues are $6 per week per player and the payout for an 8 team session is $1000 for 1st place!! Free pool school is offered on Tues and Thurs evenings starting @ 5:00 and Saturday afternoons from 2:00-3:00. Come on down, the crowd and staff are unusually pleasant but remember to bring your ID. 18 to enter 21 to drink.

Today was the last straw. I have told them many times that it is illegal to charge extra for using…read morea Debit Card and they did it AGAIN. Aside from the illegal fee that they know damn well is illegal (in all 50 states) they have also jacked up their prices again. Also, I almost never complain about a waitress but ffs She walked away from me while I was still tell Her my order and then I got up to go tell her the rest of the order so I wouldn't get something the way I didn't want it and She walks away AGAIN like gosh damn let someone finish wtf they're saying before rushing to put it in the system. I was very clear with Her that I was paying with a debit card NOT a credit card and she charged me the card fee anyway which is clearly illegal.

From specialty cocktails, to craft beers, to basic cocktails along with wine and non-alcoholic drinks. The vibe is a dive bar but elevated. There were all kinds of people and it was a comfortable, laid-back atmosphere. We got the fried green beans and the skewers. Pretty good. Came out hot and quick. The service was great too!

I really wanted to love this place because it has a lot going for it, especially when you first…read morewalk in. The ambiance is honestly one of the best parts. The lighting is warm, the space feels modern but still comfortable, and it has that upscale date night feel without being overly formal. It creates a great first impression and sets expectations for a really polished experience. Unfortunately, the rest didn't quite live up to that atmosphere. Service was probably the biggest letdown. Our server came off a bit awkward and did something I've honestly never experienced before. Multiple times during the meal, we were asked to lift our plates and glasses so they could wipe underneath them while we were still actively eating. It completely disrupted the flow of the meal and just felt unnecessary and uncomfortable. On top of that, drink service was pretty slow. We had empty sodas sitting on the table for a while, and even though several staff members walked by, no one really checked in or offered refills unless we flagged it. For a place at this price point, you expect a bit more attentiveness. The food itself was decent, but both entrees came out noticeably too salty. Not just slightly over seasoned, but enough that it took away from the overall enjoyment of the dishes. It was disappointing, especially given how promising everything looked. However, the cake was fantastic but again, $16 for a slice of cake in Wichita is just too much, I pay less when I visit LA for work trips. What really sealed it for me was the price. For two people, one appraiser and two entrees, two sodas, and a single slice of cake plus tip, we ended up at around 150 dollars. That's a pretty steep bill for a meal that had service issues and food that missed the mark on seasoning. Rotating menu every two months with locally sourced ingredients is great, but poor service and a steep price for overly salty food is enough to keep me from ever coming back.
