Old school pool hall on Hastings, just W of Nanaimo. This place has been around for decades…read more Parking is quite limited in the surrounding area. Best to look NE of the intersection of Hastings and Nanaimo. The venue is on the 2nd floor, with no elevator. Something to keep in mind in terms of accessibility. The inside is dingy and dated. Looks like something out of the 1970s. They have both (3) snooker and (4) 8 ball tables. Tables are a bit packed, but there's enough room for shots. Table quality is pretty decent I must say. The bar also serves coffee, but I didn't try.

Old school Portuguese pool hall. It's not just a cafe. Don't let the dumpy exterior scare you off…read more Parking is available on Kingsway, as well as the side streets. Inside is very dated. The place is actually 2/3 pool hall and 1/3 cafe. Several big screen TVs, and a surprisingly number (6 total) of pool tables. Tables are of the 8 ball variety. In other words, no snooker here. The coffee bar also serves alcoholic beverages and sandwiches. No hot food. One thing worth mentioning is that they don't have decaf for some reason. With that said, my coffee tasted fine.

We came here hoping to grab some food and ended up disappointed. They don't have a kitchen. They do…read morehave hot food on the weekend lunch time but not at night or on a weekday. This is a pure billiard place with a few selection on drinks and a few selections of sandwiches or pastries and coffee.

There are plenty of lanes for bowling along with pool tables and some arcade games. The name of the game here is 5 pin bowling. It's a fun and relaxing experience. Pricing is fairly decent and won't break the bank. I had a great time bowling here. I can't wait to come back with friends and play more games.

It was a rainy weekend so me and my friends decided to do an indoor activity. Commodore Lanes were…read morethe only ones open so we went there. Since they only have 5 pin bowling and they didn't allow us to drink by the bowling area, we decided to play billiards instead. It was around $22/hr for each table. They had multiple tables that were really close to each other which made it tough to play. I would recommend them to space their tables out more so that players are not bumping into each other and have enough room to play. They also did not have a water fountain at the venue so I asked their bar if I could get a glass of water. They said that we have to pay for it and they would only take cash. I wasn't looking to buy a bottle of water, just wanted a glass with tap water. But they said that we would have to pay for the cups, luckily my friend had some change so I was able to get water. I feel like for such a big venue space that serves alcohol, serving a glass of tap water shouldn't be such a big ask. The service was ok!

This place is obviously all about pool. Unlike your typical bar that may have a couple of tables,…read morethey've got a solid amount of tables and even a few dart boards. Beyond the games, it's pretty no frills when it comes to beverages. It appears they just have a few canned drinks in a small refrigerator, but you're really coming here for the game and not food/drink. Parking can be tricky when it's busy. When I came we got lucky with someone leaving. Pricing is very competitive and fair, ambience is bare bones and what you'd expect from pool tables in a Richmond warehouse setup.

Prices aren't cheap; $58.00/hour plus $4.00/person for shoe rentals. There's slightly cheaper rates for off-peak hours. Pool tables are more reasonable ($25.00/hour for 8-ball, $35.00/hour for snooker). 6 lanes (three can be reserved online, three walk-in) that are tightly squeezed together. Bowling balls are greasy, shoes gnarly. The pins are held by strings, which I've never seen before. They start your time the moment you pay. Our group of four managed to squeeze in two full games. 2.5 stars.

The pizza was basically microwaved with some cheese and salt on it. Having to pay for everything you order before it comes doesn't make the place any better either. I'm not sure if it's some stupid BC liquor law thing but not being able to enjoy your beer while bowling is odd to me. You have to keep it outside a certain barrier? I don't like leaving my beverage out of sight while people walk back and forth by my drink. In today's age, NO ONE should have to leave their beverage out of sight.

I LOVE cinnamon, so I was already in heaven. They gave me a huge box of freshly made cinnamon buns topped with silky, sweet frosting -- and I love my buns extra sweet! One big bite and I was instantly in cinnamon bun heaven. The buns were soft, fresh, and packed with real brown sugar and cinnamon that ooze out in the best way. It's honestly so hard to find perfectly made, fresh cinnamon buns in the Lower Mainland, and I finally found my go-to spot. Thank you, Grounds for Coffee, for your generosity and love .
