House rules

Six things. Then play.

By the table, not the head

Up to four on a table. Doubles, round robin, winner stays on: your call. Cues, chalk and balls are on the table when you arrive.

Lights down, no coins

Tables are on a timer, not a coin slot. A scratch costs you the shot, not fifty pence.

Cushions aren't seats

No sitting on the rails, no drinks on the rails, no masse shots. Rip the cloth and it's charged at cost.

Any age

Under-16s with an adult at the table. Shorter cues on the rack for smaller players.

Walk up or book

Walk-up tables are first come, first served. Booking ahead is free, so book if you're coming at a busy time.

Sober tables

No bar, no alcohol in the building. Soft drinks and snacks from the lounge, kept off the rails.

Who it's for

The slow one in a building of fast ones.

Date night

A table for an hour, then the games floor. Pot & Play does both for fifteen quid a head.

Weekday afternoons

Off-peak: eight quid a table an hour between four of you, and the place to yourselves. Students, shift workers, long lunches.

League night

Most Tuesdays from 7pm. Five pounds in, round robin into a knockout, prize pot to the winner, photo on the wall.

Before the axes

Half the group on a table while the other half throws, then swap. The lounge is between the two.

League night

Tuesdays. £5 in. Winner takes the pot.

From 7pm most Tuesdays. Singles, round robin into a knockout, best of three in the final. The pot goes to the winner, the photo goes on the wall, and the table's yours for the evening whether you win or not. Walk-ups welcome; tell us when you arrive. Office league for your team? Message us.

The tables

English 7 ft tables with red and yellow balls, re-clothed on a schedule. One American 9 ft table, £4 an hour on top.

Cues

House cues in three lengths, chalk on every table. Bring your own cue if you've got one; we'll find you a rack.

Snack bar

Soft drinks, hot drinks and snacks in the lounge. No alcohol anywhere in the building. Drinks stay off the rails.

FAQ

Pool questions.

How is pool priced?

By the table, not the person, with two rates. Off-peak, Monday to Friday until 6pm: £8 an hour, £14 for two, £20 for three. Peak, every evening from 6pm plus weekends and bank holidays: £12 an hour, £20 for two, £28 for three. The Weeknight Evening Pass is £32 for the table from 6pm to 10pm Monday to Thursday, four peak hours for the price of three. Cues, chalk, balls and the triangle are included, and the tables are lights-down rather than coin-operated, so a scratch doesn't cost you a game.

What counts as peak?

Any time from 6pm, all day Saturday and Sunday, and bank holidays. Everything else is off-peak: weekday afternoons are the cheapest time to play, and the quietest. A booking that starts before 6pm is charged at the off-peak rate for its whole length.

Can I just turn up?

Yes. Walk-up tables are first come, first served, and booking ahead is free, so book if you're coming at a busy time. The Weeknight Pit Pass includes walk-up pool whenever a table's free.

English or American tables?

English 7 ft tables as standard, red and yellow balls. One American 9-ball table, available for £4 an hour on top.

How old do you need to be?

Any age. Under-16s need an adult at the table with them. No sitting on the cushions, no masse shots and no drinks on the rails, whatever your age.

Is there a league?

Most Tuesdays from 7pm: £5 entry, singles, round robin into a knockout, prize pot to the winner and a photo on the wall. Walk-ups welcome; tell us when you arrive.

Can we mix pool with the games floor?

Yes. Pot & Play gives two to four of you a table for two hours and a games wristband each with 30 credits for £15 a head. Swap between the table and the machines as you like.
