Came here last night on a whim after looking through yelp for somewhere decent in Charlotte to play pool. I can't play worth a crap, but I do enjoy just hittin' the balls around the table. That said, It wasn't difficult to find somebody to kick my ass through several shameful rounds.
Walked in on a Friday about 6, the place only had about 7 people there but filled up quickly by about 9 pm. Its dark and divey which i liked, and i felt like i fit in fine with my unimpressive jeans and tee shirt. There are four pool tables, two dart boards, a few electronic games you play at a table, and some other video games available to keep you entertained should you run out of conversation or verging on boredom. From a couple scans of the room throughout the evening, people that congregate here are middle 30's to later 50's. Apparently they do free pizza on Fridays, which one of the regulars brought to my attention... Talking about regulars, they do notice easily when a new person walks in ( me ) and were quick to socialize and make me feel welcome. Thank you Randi, Matt, David, Heather, and Warren. This place really does seem like Cheers when you observe how close people really are here. Thursday night pool league is starting up soon apparently, inexperienced players welcome.

I would give this place one star if i could, i was drinking kettle one vodka all night and went to this place and ordered a kettle one straight. Literally saw them pour it straight from the bottle and it was anything but kettle one. Tasted like burnetts I had on my freshman year spring break. These cheapos could atleast go to ABC and spen $17 on a real bottle instead of cheat people. Won't be back to this cheapo spot ever again

This is my Cheers. I will never love a bar as much as I do this place. There's nothing extraordinary about the place. They do have great pool tables that are free to play but I don't play pool so that's not why I'm there. I just love the bartenders, the people that are always there, the patio, the fun atmosphere. It's just great. My favorite, always.
