Pool & Games:

FREE POOL is available every week Monday through
Wednesday on our (3) 7 ½ foot tables! We are the only bar in Northampton, MA that extends this offer to customers on a regular basis!

We would appreciate it if all free pool customers make a purchase or two at the bar. A variety of non-alcoholic beverages are also available, including fresh-squeezed orange and grapefruit juices!

Depending upon business volume and table availability, we may at times have to ask that you give up a table so that other customers may participate as well. In the case of groups of 6 or more, we ask that you use one table only.
(Time limits may be imposed, at the bar staff 's discretion.)
