Main Street Bar & Billiards

Don’t go here unless you want your real ID to get snapped in half. The incompetent bouncer (wears glasses with curly hair) snapped my friend’s real ID in half right away without even a second opinion, scanning it, etc. then laughed about it. It took her pulling out her military ID and talking to the manager for them to realize it’s real. She’s also from out of town so now she has to travel hours and go through the process of getting it replaced. The bartender was also very rude, chiming into a conversation she wasn’t a part of saying “well if they snapped it, it must be fake” which is extremely embarrassing for her and ignorant when she didn’t even know the extent of the situation. The manager was accommodating, but I suggest getting new bouncers or training them to be less dense and idiotic.

Great atmosphere very nice bartender and some of the best food I have eaten at a place like that will definitely be back this is our go to place for playing pool and eating and drinking while playing in gainsville

Nice place to go shoot pool and have a drink very clean. Staff was awesome

Need to invest in AC. Very uncomfortable environment. Especially, in the summer. Almost unbearable.

I went there after going to a different bar with my partner. I walked in with a drink and no one said a word. I just wanted to finish up that drink and continue to consume in the bar. The tall blonde staff dude with glasses snatched it out of my hand at some point saying he needed to confiscate it, “specially because it was alcoholic” (I don’t get it, this is a +21 space regardless). I asked if I could save it for when I was out of the establishment and he said no but that I could have it outside. I immediately took it and walked out of the bar but meanwhile he was still shit talking to my partner about how it was “one and done” and just creating an unnecessary scene when I totally understood the rule and immediately complied to what he said. I can just think about a billion ways he could’ve been more polite. Just acted like a jerk for no reason. We were about to start a pool game and just decided to pay for our 5 minutes worth of having the pool and leave, even when our plan was to stay and consume for the whole night. Have been there a handful of times but this is my last one. Entitled jerk, never again.

Best Pool place in town. The atmosphere is amazing and the diversity stunning.

Loved the ambience and games.

The service was absolutely terrible! The male bartender with glasses, lost his cool and began to curse me out after asking for him to close my tab after waiting for 25 minutes without even acknowledging I was standing in front of him...

Good staff, nice tables, good pizza, very enjoyable

It is a place that anyone can play billiards with professional size tables for reasonable cost

Entered the Monday $5 tourney and played the owner "Jim" I was about to beat him and he started accusing me of cheating and marking the table with chalk. It's just sad when the owner has to do something like this to win his own tourney. I'll never play here again. Stay away from this Jim guy he is shady as hell. Sad old man.

I had the best time here! They have such a wide variety of drinks and shots. The owner and workers are so kind and cared a lot about our experience! They are the only place in gainesville with darts i swear! We had the best time.

Always a good time after clubbing/bar hoping, great place to end the night at.

The worst experience I have ever had. The bartender has the worst attitude ever. She stole the change from my $20 after buying a single beer. Never would recommend. As a matter of fact run the other direction and save yourself $10 entrance fee, and treat yourself to excellent service at the salvation army. They give you the respect you deserve. This place is a five and should fall off the map!

Shot pool from opening til dinner.
Best quality flat, level, clean, lively tables ever.
Delishous beers on tap. Friendly service.
Spacious layout.
The dating crowds filled in after dusk.
Lovely all around
