I just went there to play some pool no one is there playing at all. I was told after I walked in the place that if I didn’t show a vaccination card or have a mask on I can’t stay. IT IS NOT POSTED ANYWHERE IN THIS PLACE.

It may just be my biased impression, or my reminiscing over the days of dimly lit, smoky pool halls with money exchanging hands (which to be clear this is not), but no frills pool halls populated with quality players seem to be less and less prevalent nowadays. With that being said, Gold Crown gets my Roger Ebert 2 thumbs up. The regulation sized tables are kept in good working order; I've not had any experiences with warp or balance on the table that impacted my shot, and unlike many pool halls that over time seem to never upgrade or service their sticks, I have played here well over 10 times and only infrequently have I come across a stick with noticeable warp/curvature in the wood. Finally, and some might not have as much appreciation for this, but the chalk squares are updated prior to being run down to where it becomes harder to chalk your cue evenly. Fresh chalk, sticks I can look down and see my target accurately, and a surface that I can hit on with pace without worry that my ball will inexplicably curve prior to the pocket, are why Gold Crown gets 5 stars from me. Most other places I have played at don't seem to give this level of attention to quality. Thanks for the good experiences, and for giving me the opportunity to play one of a dwindling number of activities with my father that our ever increasing age has yet to restrict us from (and probably the only one i can best him at!)?

Mask or vaccine card requirements no thanks. And then read rest of reviews saying shady hidden charges on already overpriced play definitely a now way.

I went on a Friday night with my girlfriend, we never been to a pool hall before. As we approached the building we weren't sure if it was open, but gave the door a tug and sure enough it was. Turned out to be two people there playing on one of the 15 or so tables he had set up inside. The gentleman emerged from the back of the room and walked up and greeted us, showed us to a table and he went back to his seat in the back. It was fun. The table we had was balanced and the cues provided were not too bad. It was pretty cheap being only 11 dollars for the hour

This is the last place I'd recommend to get a few games in. The owner or guy that runs the place is rude and ir's expensive. I'd drive to Manchester or Rocky Hill before I went here. Save yourself the aggravation and go somewhere else.

Owner states you need masks (which he sells for $2) or wants vaccination card. As he has no mask and is coughing all over the register and counter area. Not a soul in the place besides us. Should've been a sign. We will NEVER return. Ps you're better off using bathroom facilities elsewhere. He's never had these ones cleaned

They charge more than the advertised rates. The signs indicate $13.00 for 3 people per hour and we were charged $18.50. When we mentioned the discrepancy, the person working said he charges for people to walk in the door. We won’t be back.

Generally a nice, quiet place to shoot pool. Tuesdays and Thursdays are league night, but every other night there's open tables.The price is $12 per hour, and I believe it goes up a dollar for every additional person.Pool cues are provided, but due to the coronavirus you have to pay $.75 for chalk.It's a great place, I go there all the time.

I've been here before for some pool supplies and a couple times to shoot. It's a great spot with lots of gorgeous well kept tables. But this trip was to get my cue repaired.John was great, courteous and very knowledgeable. He and the woman there (didn't get her name ?) were very informative at the cost of an additional sale, which I appreciate their honesty!Got my cue tip repaired with a new Kamui clear black, got some new chalk and a new holder, and everything was very fairly priced!Thanks again for all your help guys!

Guy is a rip off. Don't ever go there. $42 for one hour of pool, dried blood in the sink, the guy coughed all over us when checking out, absolutely disgusting.

This place does not inform you upon entering or have signage of their added cover charge or cleaning fee. (Is it even legal to charge for cleaning?) A $12 table is actually $20 for 1 hour. And when we spoke to the gentleman he said everyone just knows this is what it costs. So what about new patrons or people who do not come regularly? The only sign states the cost of how many people per table per hour. Smdh I will not be returning. You shouldn't be charging your patrons to clean so they can come spend their money at your establishment.
