I was just talking about robey's social club today with my better half. Used to go there with my dad. Kids weren't allowed on the snooker tables but we used to play bar billiards instead. You don't see that around anymore!
I‘d not seen a bar billiards table for years until I stumbled upon one (not literally) a few weeks ago in the Joiners Arms, just off West Parade (Victoria street)
They are starting to make a bit of a comeback in some hipster pubs down my way.
There's a table in a working man's club on the way out of York to the racecourse. We always call there for a game and a cheap pint (something we clearly won't get once we get in the racecourse ). I'd never played it until a couple of years back when we went in it.I was just talking about robey's social club today with my better half. Used to go there with my dad.

Irony that this has been the most popular thread in recent weeks, and also not gone off topic. Alcohol and football tends to go hand in hand.
Riders on the storm, nice pint.The Gardener's Rest in Kelham Island, Sheffield has a bar billiards table too. Cracking set of pubs around there (the above mentioned, Kelham Island Tavern and The Fat Cat) for any ale drinkers. Kelham Island brewery is there unsurprisingly, and kingfishers can be spotted along the River Don there.

Thought hipsters would have been more into pocket billiards.They are starting to make a bit of a comeback in some hipster pubs down my way.

True. Even though I'm not a big drinker I like going for a pint either before or after the game, or having a drink while listening to BBC Lincs coverage.Irony that this has been the most popular thread in recent weeks, and also not gone off topic. Alcohol and football tends to go hand in hand.

I think it soothes the nerves.

I'm only a big drinker in the sense that I'm big and I drink...
But I really can't remember last time I got drunk.[/QUOTE
To forget is often the excuse to get drunk in the first place
