We LOVE this place. My partner and I live around the corner and this is our favorite spot to go to anytime we wanna go out. The place is well maintained, the tables and cues and good quality, and the staff is SO friendly and attentive. Loyal customers here!

Neat place, tables are new and clean, enough space between tables. There is a free parking lot adjacent. Food is alright, drinks are standard. AC is BLASTED to antarctic winter. The male bartender doesn’t care if you live or die.

I didn’t realize the area had such an affinity for billiards! There are many tables here but they fill up quickly! They have everything you need to play, just bring your friends or team! The rates are a little bit high for the hour ($20 outside of happy hour) but it’s a great atmosphere of people who are there to compete and there to have fun. Very accessible by the bus!

This was the perfect venue for a 30th birthday party! The Thinkers Space was comfortable and the staff was accommodating. It was a great value, too. It made for a memorable occasion.

Love these guys! I come here every other weekend and hang out with friends. The food is good and the tables, sticks, ambiance and drinks are all great. Music selection is never the same but I enjoy them all

Late night fun. No experience needed. Very kind and helpful staff. Can have 18 year olds if not too late.

Surge Billiards on Montrose is nothing short of spectacular! This excellent pool hall boasts great happy hour deals, with table prices that won't break the bank. Not only is it a haven for pool enthusiasts, but it also doubles as an amazing coffee bar. The space is expansive, offering plenty of room to sit, chill, and enjoy yourself. The drink selection is solid, ensuring there's something for everyone.

The APA pool leagues here are fiercely competitive and incredibly fun, adding to the vibrant atmosphere, especially on Tuesday nights. Even when it's busy, the accommodating staff ensures you'll get a table without hassle.

What truly makes Surge Billiards exceptional is the people. Victor, the regional manager, keeps everything running smoothly, while Alex, the bartender, is a riot—he's got jokes ?, but really, his playful banter adds to the fun. Ely, Sofi, Danielle, Roberto, Annie, Lilly, Jake, and the rest of the team are awesome and truly contribute to the welcoming vibe. Spending a day, a weekend, or even a whole week here is great and you won't regret!

I love this place! I met my family here and was blown away by the creative space, FANTASTIC coffee, and EPIC service. Alex, the bartender was wonderful and treated us like family. I am not a pool player but had a blast just hanging out. I will definitely be back!

Always a great time! Great location, very nice set up, clean, spacious, & amazing service! Will always recommend & definitely continue to come back!

A little pricier than some other pool halls but it more than makes up for it. Between the music, the drinks (all syrups for cocktails made in house) and the general vibe, it's def one of the coolest places to spend a Saturday night
