I Love this place! Been coming here for so many years(15 years to be exact). The owners Bryant and Hannah are coolest ever. Their fried wings are delicious MMM. When I go here we always get the table #6. Also the waitress are very friendly and helpful.

Love the place, chill and good pool tables. Price is moderate for alcohol. The owner is really friendly and nice. My boyfriend and I have been coming here for four months now and we’re definitely going back every weekend.

The local neighborhood pool hall. Chill and low key with cheap beers and pool rates. I came here with my family to play pool during a Sunday afternoon. There was only one other guy playing pool at the time. It was a bit weird to be in an empty pool hall, but I quickly forgot about that first impression once the family games began. The pool tables and equipment were clean and in good shape. Natural light came in from the front windows. It wasn’t fancy or super nice, but it wasn’t a dark and drabby kind of place either. No complaints about the facilities. We had fun and enjoyed an hour of pool play as a family. Service was nice and friendly at the bar counter. The man helping us(the owner?) was quick to set us up and also serve beer. Price: One hour of pool + 3 beers = $ 23. Good deal! Credit cards accepted.

Place is cool… Good for gatherings, big pool house, beers are cheap, along with good food, and lots of good music. There was only 5 of us but we enjoyed all the 90’s and today’s hip hop/r&b… All in All at the end of the night after being there 5 hours, everything we ordered like the drinks and food along with the table came out to be less then we expected which was under $ 100. Had a great time catching with friends, and definitely will be back with more friends.

Haven’t been back here for about 13 years and the owners still remember me! :) I’m very happy to see they are doing well and still own this place. This place is so clean. Anyone looking to shoot pool, I’d recommend this place.

I’ve been coming here regularly since 2002 and I still come in for drinks with my buddies. Great environment. The owner Briant is accommodation and great pool player. The Owners really take care of the place and it’s customers by continuing to update the place and add more food choices to its menus.

Rack ‘Em Up! Wow first review since 9⁄2011. No one in the OC likes to shoot pool? I know my buddies come here often but I decided to come here for the first time with them. It’s a little further from where I live(this place is down near Knotts!) but it’s probably the cleanest and nicest pool hall I’ve been to. The hall is well lit and the tables are nice. There’s PLENTY of tables all around and shouldn’t be a problem unless you come on a jam packed night. The waitress was nice and attentive. We got a pitcher of beer to go along with our games. They also serve food which is cool but we didn’t order any. The crowd was cool. There weren’t any drunkies going around trying to start trouble or anything. It’s just a spot for some good pool players to come through. Prices are a bit steep though. I think it was $ 12/hr during peak times.

This place is so cool! Tons of pool tables, a killer jukebox, and megatouch games!

Love this place. Especially the owner brian. Great vibe, they have a new juke box. And the food and snacks there are great. Especially the squid stripes and french frys. Tables are pretty clean, and there’s always a good number of them there open unless its a friday or saturday night. The only other down side I would say is the pool sticks which are pretty bad. I would say bring your own is you have them, or buy from the owner. They’re pretty resonably priced.

tables are in great condition. they also play tournaments there if you’re looking for a challenge. people there are friendly… beer is cold and reasonably priced. and the best part is the Fried Chicken wings, HOMEMADEEGGROLLS and seasoned fries. they got some of the best grub. the portions are huge. and the menu is mostly $ 5 items. you have to try the fried wings, even though the buffalo wings are good too. i’m the guy drinking a heinie at the bar, you can thank me later.

I have shot as much pool since I’ve moved down to san Diego, but when I come back though here, this is where I usually shoot pool. It’s in the middle for my friends. Pool hall overall is pretty descent. Not super nice, but the felt is clean and the walls bounce like they should. Plenty of tables to ge a game. The spacing is kind of tight so when it’s busy you sometimes need to wait for other players to shoot. They do serve beer and normal bar food. Which is a plus for me since I like getting a few beers while shooting. There’s a juke box also like someone else said. Pretty cool kickback place.

I absolutely love this place! Mind you, I used to work here but as a customer and ex-employee, it feels like family here. The owners make sure to say hi each and every time you walk in here. They never forget a face! Pros: establishment is one of the cleaner pool halls I have been to, great waitresses, selection of beer and munchies and prices are affordable! Cons: Earlier this year they lost a great employee. Thomas RIP. We love you!

There are about 16 full size tables here that are generally in good condition. I actually prefer Rack and Cue over Hot Shot since they have a table with Simonis felt. While the tables are good at both places, the cloth at Hot Shot really limits your cue ball control, especially if you need to hit a long draw shot. Or maybe I just suck and I need an easy table to compensate for my lack of skills. Other than that, it’s pretty much what you would get in any standard pool halls: few beers on tap, some flat screens(4) playing sports, a Foosball table, Jukebox, stinky bathrooms, and occasionally some bums drinking it up outside. Aside from that though, it’s a really clean and well lit pool hall. I met an older gentleman here that runs a handicapped 9 ball tourney on Monday nights. If I lived closer and wasn’t occupied with a league already, I would jump on this. Tourneys are usually a great bargain since you get a few hours of playing time for your entry fees. Even if you’re like me and get knocked out early every time, you can sometimes keep playing on open tables. And every now and then, even a sucker can get REAL lucky!

My second home while i was unemployed. Best atmosphere with the coolest and chillest owners I know. The waitresses are really chill and would play pool with you too if its not crowded. They offer to hold your poolstick behind the register if your a regular too! The fries and chicken nuggets they serve are so good, you should really try a order of each. R.I.P. Thomas, chillest security that worked here!

a pretty clean pool hall… i’ve been to a couple in my day… some you can smoke in… some you can drink at… but nothing comes to a happy medium as this place… very clean… very friendly… good clean fun… for a pool hall that’s saying something… the music HELLA bumps… and it’s recent shit too… so i see girls dancing while playing pool… it’s a good sign ;) although one gripe: the pooltables need new felt… other than that… very legitimate pool hall :)

Being that I use to live a few blocks down from this place, it was relatively close and accessible. On the weekends, it does tend to get a little crowded. The crowd usually consist of Asians with a few other ethnicities sprinkled here and there. The people who work there are usually very friendly and nice. Plus they also have waitresses that come around asking if you need any drinks/food, which they’ll gladly get for you. We have never had to wait for a table, so thats a plus. Although if you do go on a weekend night, parking might be a tad hard to find since it’s in a small lot with parking thats shared with some other stores along that stretch of property. They also have these computer games set up on the counters like arcade games that you can also play if you’re not pooling. I’ve only tried their trivia game once and that was it so can’t really tell you what other games they have set up.

Decent pool hall. Lots of g’s when we go but the girls are used to them. No biggie. Generally nice people. Good service. Jukebox. Make sure to put some hip hop on! Bar food and beers is the usual order. Decent prices. Come casual, grab some brew, and shoot some pool with my ladies. :) Nothing fab but nothing crappy either.
