  This place is pretty much a dive. Small bar with overall lackluster atmosphere. Just seems dingy overall. They have a cover which is kind of annoying (this is Salisbury people), but at least there's a band.
  
  Food is pretty good though. Lots of pool tables, which is really the only reason to choose here over somewhere else.

  Pros:  Thanks to the no-smoking laws, one can now breathe in this establishment.
  Trivia -- this was actually fun and gave us something to do and laugh about.  Unfortunately, no one in the bar was playing except us.
  If you like pool, this is the place to go; a gazillion pool tables
  Drinks are strong and reasonably priced
  Sometimes has live bands
  They even card "old" people like us.
  
  Cons:  Hubby's ginger ale had a terrible aftertaste
  Bar tenders not very attentive when we went last night.
  $6 cover -- but hey, they have to pay the band something.
  
  Can't comment on the food, as I haven't eaten here in years.  A few years back, it wasn't bad.  Looks like they've revamped their menu.  Hubby and I were hoping they'd have some dessert items, but we didn't see any on the menu.

  I've only been to Break Time twice, once to hang out while some friends played pool and once to have a meal before watching some friends play pool (I just don't play pool. lol).
  
  On my first visit, I tried the Crab Pretzel and it was decent. A little better than you might expect from a pool hall.
  
  On my second visit, we decided to order dinner, and I was pretty disappointed. The Old Bay wings we ordered for our appetizer were overcooked and dry. Instead of tossing the wings in Old Bay, they had just dumped Old Bay across the top, so the wings were only half coated. I ordered a crab cake sandwich on sourdough bread with fries. When my sandwich came, the "sourdough" was two HUGE thick slabs of very dry, unbuttered bread much larger than the crab cake. To rectify the size difference, I tore the edges off the bread so that I could get a bit of crab and bread all at once. This did not work. Instead, the incredibly dry bread crumbled into bits as soon as I tried to take a bite and the crab cake completely fell apart. Waay to much filler in the crab cake. Not enough flavor. The only thing decent about my meal was the fries, which are thick cut but have a nice crunchy coating to them. My husband complained that his burger, which he ordered medium well, was dry and overcooked.  He also added that there was so much ice in his soda that he only got one or two swigs before needing a refill.
  
  Not impressed at all.

  You know, I'm not sure why I've always liked this place.  I mean, they ALWAYS charge a cover on Saturday nights (sometimes much higher than OC joints like Seacrets), their waitstaff is always short-staffed and thus slow, and the prices for pool are usually kinda stiff.
  
  But look, the drink prices are fair, the food is sometimes surprisingly good, and the sprawl the place has affords singles, couples and groups to either mingle, nest up in a booth or sprawl out at a table.  You can be close to the noise or you can move to another part of the restaurant and talk in a normal voice.  I've always liked that-- it's a good place to go when you want to be able to talk to your pals.
