| - Nestled between the bright lights of the once famous Graham Central Station and a no-name BBQ place is a lovely gem I like to refer to as "Skips".
The bar side of this place is nothing too special. Don't get me wrong, its BIG for a bar, but the ambiance and furniture are pretty dated. So, unless you enjoy playing pool, I don't know why you would want to come here.
That being said, the pool here is great! They just got around 15 brand new Diamond 7' tables which play AWESOME. Their 9' tables also play well, but they have some PRETTY unforgiving pockets. So if you are a beginner, I wouldn't play on the big tables unless you like to be frustrated.
They have no house cues on the floor. you have to rent them up at the bar for $1.00. This is great because they can maintain a better quality cue for you (if you use house cues).
Their food is actually REALLY good! I've had their Turkey Burger which was moist and delicious. It comes with a nicely sized basket of fries. Also, their Nachos are ridiculous good (That's saying a lot coming from me)! The only bad thing about their nachos is that they use that liquid fake cheese... I prefer shredded blends on my nachos.
The waitresses there are uber friendly. Yes, UBER! They always make a point to remember your name and they are always SOOO busy! Make sure to tip them well. They will remember you!
Wednesday night is league night there, so unless you want to watch, avoid Wednesday from 7-10pm. Oh, and HH is from 2-7 and lots of the food (including the nachos and Turkey Burger) are priced to sell!
Go shoot some pool!
