What our guests are saying

Great bar with new pool tables and darts! Food was really good too. Tried the sampler and the lobster rolls. Lobster roll was delicious, came with two small lobster rolls with warm liquid butter and fries. I would come back just for the lobster roll. Service was amazing and we were greeted right when we walked in the door. Nice chill spot and we will come back😎

Genuinely impressed! Friendly staff, tons of TVs with all the games on, great pool tables, great food & drink. What more could you ask for? I will 100% be back.

Cleanest pool hall and sports bar in Palatine. Perfect date spot, good looking people. The staff is amazing. Bartenders are generous. Their food on the other hand is OUTSTANDING. Wow. Legit good food at a pool hall.

This has to be one of the nicest bars that I have been to in a while. Their TV setup is amazing, very impressive! There just aren’t very many places to shoot pool anymore so it’s nice when someone locally brings it back. We will for sure be coming back for another round!

Hot Pockets has the best specialty drinks along with a stacked bar full of top shelf alcohol. They always have great specialty cocktails that taste amazing! The staff is very attentive and is always on top of getting us anything we need. Just waiting for a dart league to start and I’ll be here all the time!

One of the most humble and attentive bars I have been to in IL. service 10/10. Atmosphere and cleanliness 10/10. Food was amazing, tables were the best I've seen in the area and more. Highly recommend anyone joining an APA league or etc to make this a hub. Wish we had more bars like this back home.
