  The size of the place and quality of the tables are decent but not good enough to entice me back considering the appalling service.  I've only been once and there are not many places that the first experience encourages me never to go back.  
  
  As you read this please bare in mind this was during a week day and the place seemed very slow business wise.
  
  I walked into this place and up to the bar.  Its a circular bar and definitely suggest its a bad idea for good customer service.  I watched a male bartender serve another patron at the other end of the bar, take his money, and then walk around to the other side of the bar to read a magazine he was probably eager to get back to.  He didn't look my way even once and by the time he got to his magazine there was stuff in way so he couldn't see me.  I waited half expecting him to look around to see if anyone needed help.  Nope.  Someone else needed a drink and called out to him.  After that person was served he came over to me, took my ID, gave me some pool balls and we were set.  He was pretty cold and didn't seem like he wanted to be there.  
  
  My wife and I played for a while.  We decided to choose some of our own tunes from the Juke box.  It was a nice looking Touch Tunes set up just like a lot of places have these days so I must be good right? Well, not really.  All the songs we chose seemed to be at a lot lower volume than the 'filler' songs that played when no one else was paying to chose the tunes.  
  
  Ok... so we got thirsty.  Walked up the bar and now there are two people behind the bar (a guy and a gal).  The gal helped a couple of people and walked past both my wife and I standing there not once but twice.  Never looked at us, never said a word, not even a 'i'll be right with you' or anything.  The guy was on the opposite side of the bar gladly helping the half dozen guys sitting that side.  He never looked around either.  I stood there for what seemed forever before deciding to walk away thirsty.
  
  We played a few more games of pool and listened to some 'quiet' music and headed out.  Oh but wait, I needed to give the balls back and pay right?  Now i'm gonna stand at the bar and see if either of the two look around.  Guess what?  really didn't.  Had to get the guys attention.  Still cold and hating the world as he took my money.
  
  If you want to play some pool try Slix across town.  Its older and smaller but much more inviting and the people are super friendly.  They didn't let me even reach the bar before they said 'hi'.

  We have been here a few times with friends to hang out and have a drink. Plenty of pool tables and dart boards. The bar seems to have decent prices, but watch out on the weekends because the line gets super long. Last time we tried their menu and to my surprise everything tasted better than good. The spinach artichoke dip is probably the best I've ever had and that's saying a lot.
