Q Billards Cafe

It's a very basic pool hall, but the number of free pool tables is plentiful. They also have a second floor with even more pool tables. Unlike the pool tables you find in most bars around town, they charge per hour instead of per game. The best thing about this place is, they have great deals on beer. You aren't stuck with domestic beers for $1. You can get blue moon and corona too which makes it a perfect place to pregame with an hour or 2 of pool and lots of beers before hitting the more expensive bars. The pool tables are also rented out at a flat fee per table instead of per person which makes it ideal for larger groups instead of smaller numbers. I highly recommend this place if you go in larger groups or if you want to drink lots of bottled beers before going to other bars. The only downside is parking can be a pain since it's on the square in downtown.

Very basic place. Lots of pool tables, which means there is always one open. Perhaps best of all, just one dollar beers. You can't beat that. Also because of the smoking ban in Bloomington, you can breathe easy in this pool hall. Super simple, but good at what it does.
