Beer is just above freezing. We do sell setups if you would like to bring your own Liquor. Drafts include: Stella Artois, Blue Moon, Dos Equis, Miller Lite, and Bud Light. We have 2 pool tables, a Golden Tee, free Wifi, and Jukebox. Our pool tables are extremely well cared for, and sport Simonis 860 cloth, with new Belgian Aramith Premium balls. New rails are precision torqued for consistent action, and tables are leveled with a machinist level. We have plenty of great shooters willing to teach, and one table is projected to a 65" big screen. We host some of the best Amateur Pool Players Association teams in the area, are a Beaumont Best of Billiards venue, and are always looking for new shooters. Beginners are especially in demand, since the handicap system only allows a few high skill level players per team. If you want to learn the sport, this is the place.

Three employees looked at us as we wandered around wondering where we could sit. Finally, two proceeded to head to a table and clean it off for us. Our appetizers (cheese curds and fried pickles) came out in a timely manner. Both were really tasty! Then my daughter's meal arrived shortly after. The rest of us waited a little bit past 15 minutes for our food. By the time ours came out, she was finished eating. Her food was good as well as two other meals in the group. Our drinks were not refilled either until one of us spoke up. Unfortunately, two of us got stuck with overcooked and very dry meals. The picture attached is supposed to be a patty melt-hardly any onions and one small slice of cheese. If you want a nice meal during the middle of the day, there are plenty of other options.

I went with the Holiday Harvest mocktail and Honey went with Chocolate Espresso Martini. We chose the charcuterie board for 2. And garlic fries to munch on while we enjoyed the ambiance. Both drinks were phenomenal and the food was just right for a quick stop in and bite. This is a great place to unwind with the girls or have a relaxing drink after work. It would also be great for a first date if you just want to get to know each other but not have the pressure of a full dinner. We enjoyed it!

As if it was crazy to try to get someone's attention when you've been standing there with no service for that long. Will never be back. Horrible service for a trashy bar. Super disappointing for my first time visiting this establishment.

My experience at Locals Pub was so horrific I'm debating on whether or not to press charges…read more I understand the establishment closes at 2 & I arrived at 1:15, 45 minutes before closing. They were probably ready to go home & had a long night. I don't negate that at all. But if the door says they close at 2, I would never in a million years expect to be quite literally THROWN out of the door. Miss Jennifer, larger, older, slightly boyish lady in charge of security I assume (also have seen her in charge of the karaoke list as well), was VERY rude & quite frankly, disgusting, at the door. She informed me they were closed, even though it was 45 minutes before the posted closing time on the door. I asked to use the bathroom, at which point she put her hand on my shoulder & quite literally PUSHED me out the door. I was completely thrown off by the disgusting & abusive unprofessionalism. So, very annoyingly, I admit, I knocked on the door (calmly & collected). She opened the door & I tried expressing my discomfort of how she handled me, at which point she put BOTH of her hands on me & that is something I CANNOT understand nor feel like should be allowed. Miss Jennifer has been absolutely unprofessional & dangerous & I quite honestly hope something is done about her behavior. The establishment as a whole has been so accommodating & comforting. My experiences there have always been pleasant. Miss Jennifer is a danger to the brand.

With the multiple screens for all things sports or the ax throwing lanes if you need to get some rage out. There is food of all kinds but I'd believe the kitchen closes at 9pm. They do offer brunch on Sundays with a make your own Bloody Mary bar, with fixins of your choosing. It's a top place for us to hang with friends or just get out for a little. No need to dress up, it's a casual place. There is also a side room to rent for parties or showers of all sorts. Great all around place to hang and get some good drinks.

I was worried that it would be too salty but it was not. An absolute balanced season burger that was smashed between two delicious buns. The fries that came with the burger had to have been fried in beef tallow. The side of fries were phenomenal just by themselves. You don't even need ketchup for these! I was absolutely blown away by how crispy they were while maintaining that perfect potato fluffiness on the inside. I try to order fries no matter where I go just to see how they throw down in that fryer. These are hands down the best fries I've had in 2025.. maybe even for the last 5 years. I can not think of a better fry and now I'm sad that I will be going back to San Francisco seeking a fry that comes close. I also want to commend the exceptional service I received here at Avenue Axe. The bartender was so sweet and friendly for taking care of us that late into the night. I will 200000% be back with a much larger party and can not wait for the next bite of that smash burger + fries. Lastly I want to commend the owners of this business for how nicely setup everything is. This is the epitome of what I want in a sports bar. 10 out of 10 and I hope you guys are blessed with way more customers.

We ordered a queso for the table. The chips were generic but still alright, Queso was typical but tasty nonetheless. I ordered chicken quesadillas which were very good! I'd probably drive to Beaumont just for those alone! The service was friendly but I ordered water three times and never received it. It wasn't crowded yet the server did seem somewhat overwhelmed with the few larger tables she did have, so I didn't ask again. The atmosphere is that of a typical Mexican restaurant but does seem very clean from my perspective. I'd go again at least for a to-go order or lunch again as it wasn't overly crowded. We were there around 2 pm ish though so it may be busier during actual lunch hour.
