Hey Guys,

Just wondering if you can recommend some venues to play pool in the Belconnen area.

I’d say pretty much most pubs and clubs would have a pool table though saying that I don’t think Gungahlin Lakes does. Civic Pub has lots of pool tables, I know it’s not in Belco, just sayin…

Maggies!!!

(at Kippax)

$2 pool to go with your $5 pint of Guinness.

The Pool Palace Upstairs in Manuka or Charletons up above Sails in Belconnen.

Tixylix: Southern Cross Woden still has three, the Burns Club still has two, and yes, the Canberra Club has a couple. Tradies in Disckson still do as well, I think.

Re: northside pool tables, Wests Jamison have a couple tables, although I heard last week that they’ve copped a bit of abuse lately and aren’t that great to play on.

Have a quick look here:

If you scroll down, you’ll get a venue listing, any venue listed has (at minimum) two tables which *should* be well maintained.

Your best bet is probably The Basement though – four tables, in great condition, with plenty of space around them, and excellent drinks prices. Plus live music, more often than not.

Yeah, I think the Canberra Club has some.

Is there a snooker table left in this city?

The Basement has four tables (which meet the 8-ball comp requirements) and cold beer.

Go a little bit further to Dickson Tradies…they still have a few full size snooker tables.

The Belco Labor Club, The Basement and the Page Tavern have a few tables
each.
