The pool bar does exactly what it says on the tin. It is a bar with the main focus on playing pool. In addition, it has a foosball table (table football). The bar, in the locality of Houhai, is a great alternative to Sanlitun for catching a game with friends. The atmosphere is rowdy and it is frequented by students. Pool Bar is typical of the dive bar formula, meaning cheap drinks and low quality. However, what it lacks in style and finesse, it makes up for in good old-fashioned competitive fun. Unlike many bars in other countries, it is free to play, which is a real boon. Be prepared to wait a while for your table at peak times though.
