John Wayne's Pub & Eatery

First time visiting and I was impressed. A friend and I drove from 90 minutes away, as we are always on the lookout for different places to play some pool, that aren't just bars. The bartender was really nice and the food was some of the best I've had at a pool hall. Couldn't have asked for better service overall. If I had any complaint at all, it would be the lack of pool cues available when we got there. We got there at noon, so only a couple other people were playing. Not busy at all. We were told cues were on the wall and the chalk was on the ledges. We went to the first room to the left and there was only a single cue available. I walked the entire left side and that was the only cue I found. Never did find any chalk, but luckily my friend brought some with him. Other than that one minor issue, it was a 5 star experience. We will definitely be back, but next time I will probably bring my own cue, just in case.

This is a very large pool hall, offering 7 foot and 9 foot diamond tables with up kept felt, and they also offer different leagues, if you are interested in playing in those, I love the TAP league the most. Great players, payout, and a great league operator. My husband and I eat dinner every Thursday there before we play and we have never had a complaint on any of the food, the fries and Wings are amazing and they make a lot of their sauces in-house and their ranch is phenomenal too. On busy league nights, they still have a few rentable tables.

New owner, rude bartender. Food and mixed drinks were the worst. 2 chicken salads were $40. Never again!

As a Deaf person I tried to be friendly and say that my drink wasn’t up to par and I saw the bartender skimp on the alcohol so I politely asked for a stronger drink and she got angry after refusing to make either a Kamakze or a Vodka Collin’s so I settled for a Vodka and Tonic and I saw her kinda cut the alcohol and fill up the glass with tonic. I tasted it and politely asked for a stronger drink. She huffed and said she would charge me for an extra shot. I said okay and she grabbed the bottle and made a show of topping off the drink with crashing the bottle against the deck. I was stunned. I don’t think I ever will come back here again with that kind of attitude. Nice pool tables but no thanks. All because of an angry older bartender. Don’t waste your time here.

Stopped by on an early Saturday afternoon, it wasn’t very busy. An employee asked us several times if we need anything and invited us to join the tournament they were having that evening. Really nice atmosphere with a large amount of Diamond tables. Clean restrooms and overall we had a really nice time
