It smells like mold. Depressing.

The male bartender with blonde hair was extremely rude and aggressive. It was incredibly crowded. My drink missed the bar as a guy behind me nudged me and it fell. He yelled and was clearly intoxicated himself. I think the whole thing could have been handled differently if he was not drinking and the place was not packed.

Meant for the 40s and above crowd

It was very different from what my friends and I were expecting. When we got down the stairs it was SO. HOT. like I had to be wearing a crop top and shorts to feel normal (which I wouldn’t be since it was 50 degrees outside)
It was also a little more dingy than we expected, only about 6 pool tables and 2 shuffleboard tables.

I ordered a cocktail and it was $12, which was on the higher end for a place like this. The bartender was kind of rude at my request. I asked her to make a Long Island iced tea sweeter (adding more soda) and she said I was asking for a an entirely different drink. Gave me said drink and I hated it. Only had a few sips and left it behind.

Great neighborhood dive with reasonable prices and plenty of games.

Peter Fehring

Affordable drinks and pool, but abysmal service from bartending and cockroaches on the floor. Good dive.

Sure! Here’s a positive review for Atomic Billiards that highlights Gwendi’s excellent service:

Atomic Billiards is hands down one of the best spots in the city for a laid-back, welcoming atmosphere and a great game of pool. The space has a fantastic vibe—unpretentious, friendly, and perfect for both serious players and casual visitors.

But what really makes this place stand out is the incredible staff, especially Gwendi! She’s an absolute gem—always friendly, attentive, and quick with a great drink recommendation. Whether you’re a regular or a first-timer, she makes you feel right at home with her warm personality and top-notch service.

If you’re looking for a neighborhood bar with great pool tables, affordable drinks, and amazing bartenders like Gwendi, Atomic Billiards is the place to be! Highly recommend!

The WORST EXPERIENCE IVE EVER HAD IN DC BEING BLACK ! The bartender woman is condescending, the MANAGER agrees with her nasty attitude and I had NO VOICE against proposed aligations that was mentioned about my issue with the security who ALL that happens to be white carried me so rudely and continued their day !!! I feel bullied unwanted and ignored leaving this place called Atomic Billiards! Wouldn’t recommend it to ANYONE don’t matter what skin color you are

Gwendi is the BEST bartender. Music is always spot on (80s/90s rock). There are tons of pool tables available and the membership option is worth it. A GEM in DC.

Could heaven ever be like this…

I will never forget how they made me and my friends leave because of the song choice from the jukebox. The police escorted us out without an explanation. The undertone was obvious however, I love everyone so I ignored it. I will never ever forget how cold and mean they were. Even the other patrons were questioning the police.
