This place was a super rad bar in downtown Denver! They had so many pool tables and other games to entertain ourselves with. It also seemed to be a popular bar to go to, even on a Sunday night. The crowd appeared to be super chill and friendly. I would definitely go back another time if I was in the area.

Writing this comment as a regular If you’re looking for a place to grab a drink, play pool and make new friends, this is a place to go. The staff is friendly and nice, prices are fair. For a place where people drink, never faced any fighting. Always nice, friendly and safe vibe. The food selection is nice and the food is tasty, but don't expect a restaurant menu, it is a local bar after all. They replace tables clothes regularly as well (even tho, as any other public place, you’ll see here or there someone spilling a drink on the table), but the tables are still in a very good condition, and you’ll definitely enjoy playing. Highly recommended 🎱🥃

Cheap drinks and many pool tables to choose from. Ambiance was good and they opened up the windows/doors when it got a little warmer inside.

Chill spot. They have like 15 pool tables and a couple foosball tables. The food didn’t look to appealing, but sometimes looks can be deceiving and taste better. It’s a good spot to either go with friends, date, or even solo to work on your pool game. It’s free to play pool, you just have to give an ID for the balls.
