Clicks Billiards

Spending my friends birthday at the pool  hall. Now heading out for desert.

I have been going to Clicks for 15 years, and it is such a classy and well run establishment that I'm not sure it qualifies as a 'billiard hall'...I believe most people think billiard halls are run down, smoky and full of sharks missing teeth.  Don't EVER lump Clicks in with that type of atmosphere.

TABLES:  They have very nicely maintained and leveled 8' and 9' tables with the best cloth in town.  They also have a few pay tables (I believe they are 7') if you don't want to pay by the hour.  There is room enough between tables so you are not crammed in.

CUES:  Look like 2 piece cues, so even if you don't bring your own, nobody would easily know you weren't shooting with a $150 cue.  They are also well maintained and not question marks.

STAFF:  Cori has the most personality of any server in town - not to mention she is quite easy on the eyes.  The rest of the girls are pleasant, accurate, speedy and cute as well.  Chris and Alan are the manager/bartenders who have much experience and are great telling jokes or conversing with you, very cordial and down to earth.

DRINKS:  They use premium alcohols and are relatively moderately priced.  Sure, you can go to a dive and get $1 drink specials, but you get what you pay for.

ATMOSPHERE/ETC:  
- Multiple TVs located all around without sound (but with closed captioning)
- A touchscreen on-line jukebox makes finding ANY song possible
- An outdoor enclosed patio for smoking
- A variety of video games like Golden Tee
- A nice turnout for darts
- Hold'em tournaments
- Various specials, like hospitality nights including free pool
- Numerous leagues
- Everything well lit, clean, NON SMOKING, and fun

CLIENTELE:  Everyone from the family, to the old men, to the UofA crowd, to the sharks, to the average Joe and Jane looking for a fun time.  Everyone is pleasant and the sharks tend to flock to table 1 and are very amiable, don't bother anybody, and they enjoy spectators watching them as they compete intensely.

Overall, you will find yourself comfortable and having a great time here - especially as there is no place in town that really compares to Clicks.  They have the market cornered and rightfully so.

It was my uncle's birthday and all of us got together and came here to end the night with some games of pool and drinks. This place is great. The atmosphere, the music and crowd. It was all fun. The drinks were pretty cheap along with a energetic bartender who was able to make pretty much any drink I threw at him for the birthday boy. The price to play was pretty darn good too especially if you have a big party. $15 and you can play all night. No hourly rates or charges and we seriously took advantage of that! I will definitely continue to come here more often and the best part it is 10 mins from my house!
