Park Billiards & Cafe

I came on a Friday night for a friends pre-​birthday celebration.
We had a nice size group. We got a couple of pool tables by the wall which was great because it helped us stay out of the way.
Food: There were two sampler appetizer trays that were ordered. I was able to try the chicken fingers with honey mustard and it wasn’t too bad.
Drinks: I was recommended by a friend to try one named «Threesome» which consisted of Hennessy, Hypnotiq and Red Alize. It was pretty good and was not as overpowering as I assumed it would be.
I was however a little disappointed they didn’t sell Blue Moon beers when I initially asked for one.
Décor: Large space with a fair amount of pool tables. There are stools and small tables lined against the walls.
There is a separate bar located at the front by the entrance. Although I did not sit there it was dimly lit with some blue fluorescent lighting and seemed very nice.
Also, there was a DJ on the night I went but not sure if there is one on a nightly bases.

I came here because it’s local. I sat at the bar and it the vibe turned me off. The music at the bar was low. So I would expect the tv with the football games on but they were muted. So anyways I was just talking to keep up the vibe with friends. We ordered drinks and then I was turned off even more. I ordered Henny with redbull. The glass had 95 percent redbull. I’m not a child don’t be cheap with cheap liquor. So we walked to get a table. The tables have water marks and the cloth is ripped. We moved to the next one but same issue. We said whatever we’ll take it since we are already here. Then the highlight is where we had the bartender come to us, we placed an order for drinks and again they had very little alcohol. We tried getting her attention but instead of noticing her attending others with drinks she was socializing with a group of guys about playing pool. Very unnattentive and the quality is no where near exceptional which is very unprofessional. Eh anyways screw that spot! there are plenty of other places in the city!

The staff will spike your drink to try and set you up and rob you. Be aware & stay away. I was home all day and decided to treat my boyfriend and his two friends out. The staff all noticed I had a lot of money and was the only female in the group paying for everything. They spiked my drink & hoped for me to go to the bathroom (alone since I was the only girl) with my purse that had just over a grand in cash. My boyfriend was completely sober since he was driving. I was there from 8pm to 12:30 am. They left me in the bathroom for 40 minutes, vomiting. My boyfriend was very concerned and asked the owner if he can please go in and check on me. So they finally let him in. I passed out. I kept vomiting the following day and my mouth was very dry all day and I was unable to eat anything. I couldn’t remember the everything that happened that night or how I got so sick with only 3 drinks… I went to the hospital and was told that my drink was spiked. Since they didn’t get to rob me the police couldn’t do much unless I was raped or robbed. I only had 3 drinks of Hennessy and redbull in the 4 hours I was there for. I had every symptom for a spiked drink. I never mix my drinks or buy speed rack cheap liquor either. This was the worst experience ever. I called the owner to tell him to watch out for his staff because the drugs were found in my urine & blood when I went to the hospital to find out what was wrong with me. And I’ve never done any drug a day in my life. The owner just told me this didn’t occur instead of actually looking in to it. I guess he doesn’t care much for his business.

Horrible got sick off the drink. It was spiked I told the manager he refused to care to check the cameras. Horrible place.

I went there on a slow day to watch a Mets game, and I had chicken fingers, fries, and two strawberry margaritas.
The good:
–chicken fingers were tasty (the fries were okay, but left no real impression)
–they didn’t turn off the game
–the bartender was nice
The bad:
–service was hilariously bad (this is my biggest complaint). At one point, the bartender said that she’d be right back to pick up my empty plate, and when I looked up five minutes later, she was just hanging out in another area of the bar not doing anything. Considering I had an open tab, I would have thought the bartender would have been hovering around trying to feed me drinks, but alas.
–the margaritas were blandly sugary & VERY expensive ($ 10 apiece) considering the low quality
I only tried this place out because I live within walking distance, and I probably will not ever go back. It’s not bad, but better cheaper drinks are worth additional travel time.

This place is great! I went with my girlfriend last night. We told the bartender, Paul, that we just moved into the neighborhood (Pelham parkway) and he shared with us that he’s worked there for 18 years. He poured us up two shots of Jack and told us a few stories and jokes. Really chill guy, perfect for a local spot.
Super clean, reasonable price, a ton of pool tables, lots of TVs, and it’s open til 4am!
We’ll definitely be back!

3 stars for the plentiful pool tables and good prices. What sucks is the service. I waited almost an hour for a turkey burger with sweet potato fries then they forgot my drink after finally bringing it. The waitress also helped herself to a tip from my change after I paid which irked me to the point of not considering a return trip in the future. I came with a group of 10 and getting two tables for us wasn’t a problem even with a big crowd on a Wednesday night. If they can step up their game with the service then this would be an instant favorite of mine.

This is the best pool hall I have been to. The place is huge, the prices are reasonable and the music is awesome. Always a great time and the food is delicious. Have to get the wings. Big place with a lot of pool tables, but also very spacious. I definitely recommend.

I used to go here years ago. Table time is overpriced and at 9 pm the music gets too loud as if you were in a club. Tables aren’t well maintained either.

Went there tonight with friends, we only played 2 rounds of pool. I had a good time. Ordered hot wings and fries, which were really good. Had drinks as well which were tasty. There Is A Dj, he played good music too. This area was very spacious with numerous pool tables. We did get padded down, well the men, not women. Over all I had a good time and will be coming back!

Nice cool lowkey spot to grab drinks, catch up with friends and shoot some pool. Don’t feel like shooting pool? Hang out at the bar and watch whatever game happens to be playing! The drinks are great and the food is pretty good also; especially for a neighborhood pool hall. Not to mention it’s cheaper than going to the city. Of course you’ll know you’re not in the city cause… well it’s no fancy Manhattan neighborhood. The crowd is very local so most people live nearby. But if you’re not from the area, it’s super close to the subway. After a certain time, you’ll have to show ID at the door whether or not you’re drinking.

Tuesdays and Thursdays, girls play for free. Need I say more? They have drink and beer bucket specials and it’s always lively. The service is a little iffy; you might have to put a Lojack on your server. She may not find her way back to your table in a sufficient amount of time but it’s a cheap night and you get a lot without having to spend the whole piggy bank.
It’s a neighborhood spot so you don’t have the bells and whistles like the chic spots in the city but you’re also not spending an arm and a leg. Park Billiards does exactly what it’s meant to do: be a hangout spot to spend time with friends, drink, dance and play pool.

This is my favorite pool hall in The Bronx, and yes, there’s quite a few. Over 20 pool tables, spacious, there’s a happy hour, a DJ spinning on the weekends, beer specials, tournaments, it doesn’t close until 0-​dark-​30, and it functions as a restaurant, as well, so don’t be afraid to sit near the bar and have dinner. The pizza is excellent (but come on, you’re in The Bronx, fughedaboutit). If it was up to me, I would live right across the street, but when it comes to real estate, this is the most sought after neighborhood in the whole entire borough, Pelham Bay Park.

I give it one star only because it looked like a nice place… And the prices were actually good… However… Price is low for a reason… You have to deal with is my beer bottle gonna have rust on it or not? Another thing is if I order a bucket I should choose if I want them all open because there are six people that are going to drink them right away not two people that want to have fresh beer not one that’s sitting there getting flat because you are running an establishment that people have run out with beer bottles… Lady you could have approached me differently with that lame ass reason as to why you needed to open all the bottles… First and last

This place is a very cool hangout spot and shoot shoot some pool. The Music is Hot97 playlists. Large area, decent bar food and fast service oh did I mention hot waitresses. They do beer buckets for $ 20.

Love this place great hang out in the cut.
Drinks are good. Servers got the cake.
Now If I could only play pool.

This was a pretty cool spot. I hosted a meet-​up of a few friends and everyone had a good time. The staff is friendly and attentive. The music was good. Although we wished they had a larger variety of beers, the drinks they made were excellent.

Best pool hall ever I got my first pool stick there the staff is cool and the owner is cool peaceful in the day **make it before 5pm and get the special $ 15 for 3 hours

Not the best pool hall I been to, but at least the staff was cool. Had many options to eat and drink. I heard fights happen here, but I noticed no such thing while I was there. I have no reason to go back again, as it was strictly to meet with someone who lived nearby.

Nice place to chilax with like mind people!!! Live Dj, food okay, drinks were fine. all in all I give it three stars for simply being a lax place.
