TCP is one of my family's favorite "HANG OUT's" Â My wife and I started going there over 3 years ago and we have been going there ever since. Â I am a military veteran and I have been in pool halls since the 80's and The Corner Pocket is my favorite. Â Here is my list for a great pool hall...
1. Â Well maintained pool tables and pool cue's
2. Â Great food and drinks available
3. Â Good juke box and sound system
4. Â EASY to get to location
5. Â Proper air conditioning and ventilation so cigarette smoke is filtered out
6. Â Friendly staff
7. Â League play
The Corner Pocket has it all. Â Lisa and Mike (owners) are friendly and accommodating. Â When our kids visit you can be sure that we will go there for a family night. Â My wife and I went this last Saturday (5 OCT) and had a great time.

I was introduced to the Corner Pocket when I first started dating my husband. Â When he said he played in a pool league, I was hesitant at first, because in my head, I saw a dingy, dark, smoky bar with pool tables. Â This place is nothing like that...
It's very large and open with smoke fans to inhale the smoke before you do...very bright with many, many lights, a jukebox that's pretty much always blaring country music, and a pretty good selection of fresh-cooked food (no microwave meals) on the menu. Â They have soft drinks, beer, and wine, but no liquor, which I consider a good thing. Â The majority of people here are family people (but no kids) who are just there to have a good time.
The owners, Homer and Barbara, are friendly and accomodating...although Homer tries to give people a hard time on occasion, it's all in a good way. Â
To sum up, I went from dreading this place to being there two nights a week, every week playing in a league, and still going up there some nights I don't have to....this is a great place to go and hang out!
