Reeked of smoke!
When I went, every pool table (except one) was occupied. I was the only female, and my friend and I were the only people of color. Not complaining, just stating my observation.
Old white men love this place! They had country music blaring through the jukebox, and personally I couldn’t stand it. So I gave the juke box $ 5 to blast trap music for 15 minutes or so. It was great! I’m glad they had that technology or else I would’ve dipped ASAP.
Pool is $ 6/​hr. The bartenders were friendly, and checked on me and my guest to see if we wanted anything to drink.
Overall, I’ll be back. I’ll bring extra money for the jukebox, and I might even order a girly drink or two (because they looked so yummy!)

I have been here a couple of times but after last night I will not be going back.
For a Sunday night the drink specials were horrible.
The wait staff was horrible. Our server forgot our drink order three times. The place was dead last night and the staff seemed to be focused more on hugging friends and each other instead of serving customers.
I will say that the fried cheese sticks are amazing. But pricey. $ 6 for six sticks.
They also did not charge me for pool. They gave my id to my friend instead of me. I was waiting at the bar to close my tab for three minutes before someone came to help me.
I will not be going back.

Pool sharks looking for the gritty over the pretty look no further! J R Pockets isn’t the nicest of bars in Denton, but it’s easily the best pool hall. With a ton of tables front and center and some stiff competition, you may wonder why you’d play anywhere else. They also have some nice drink specials; especially on Mondays when domestic drafts are $ 2 and other drafts are $ 2.50 after 8. Hard to beat that!
