Great place for pool. Good food and drinks

I came to this bar/restaurant for a quick drink and some food. I’ve been here before with coworkers and had a fairly good experience, so I decided to return for a quick lunch. The service was good overall—my server, Courtney, was attentive and helpful.
Unfortunately, my experience was overshadowed by the behavior of what seemed to be the manager, a bald gentleman whose name I didn’t catch. After finishing my meal, I let him know I was ready to pay. I didn’t have a card with me, as I typically avoid carrying loose items while traveling. He told me they only accept cash. When I explained I didn’t carry cash, he suggested I go to the 7-Eleven across the street and leave something as collateral. I left my keys, and although I was flexible and even offered to pay via Zelle, he refused, stating they didn’t accept it.
I went to the 7-Eleven, but they informed me they couldn’t provide cash back without the physical card. Not wanting to waste more time before returning to work, I returned to the restaurant and spoke with Courtney again. She was willing to accept Zelle, including a tip for her time, but the manager intervened and was incredibly rude, insisting they don’t take Zelle and threatening it would be the last time they ever would. He also pointed out signs at the door and a nearby bank, but his complete unwillingness to work with me in a reasonable situation was baffling.
I have immense respect for Courtney, but the manager’s behavior completely soured my experience. This level of rudeness and inflexibility is unacceptable, and I will not be returning. I will also be advising my colleagues in the area to avoid this establishment due to the way I was treated.

Good place to watch sports or shoot some pool. A classic that never ages or gets old.

Great place to come watch ufc fights, football games and whatever else that's sports related. Play pool, darts or just hang out and drink They have over 25 tvs all around and the atmosphere is fantastic the service is always on point and the food is great.
Great local bar for lunch. Very fast service and friendly staff. Always plenty of parking and the drinks are always great. Great place to shoot pool or watch the games as they have a ton of screens. The food is fantastic and comes out lightning quick.

Love this place, the food, the staff....everything! 💋
Awesome place. Great food, drinks and pool tables. Owner is a great guy. Recently left valuables there, was happy when I returned the next day to find out they had them stored in the back. Much appreciated. Great waitresses that go above and beyond. Love this place and will return soon!

I was looking for a place to watch my Raiders play. Being from out of town, I read the reviews for here and decided to give it a chance. I'm glad I did. Plenty of this, and the staff was very friendly and the food was fantastic. The potato skins were excellent, and their turkey melt was also top notch. I'll be coming back next weekend. Thank you staff at Classic Q.

I've been here a few times. The food is typical bar food, mostly fried stuff. I've never been impressed but today it was bad. The chicken in the chicken quesadilla was raw. The service was awful as well. Not a great experience...

This place is the worst, walked in on a Thursday night with 4 servers and was ignored for 40 minutes, it wasn't even very busy. Will not be going back

The only place that us engineers could hang until close without getting hassled. Also the pool games we had were damn competitive on our second visit. Thanks ladies!
Fun place but very few women
Day 1 I had a couple beers and tried the jalapeno poppers ( my favorite ). The peppers did not taste good, like... freezer burned... Not spicy at all.... Beer seemed a bit flat, service was slow.
Day 2.... Again, the beer tasted flat ( draft beer to clarify) The service was super slooow... Decided to try the fish and chips... The fries were over seasoned , the fish over cooked and not fresh.... Did I mention the service was 🐢🐢🐢🐢.... Next time in town for training, I need a better place. Not sure if I will go back.
