Tables Available

This is the second floor pool hall at the Rivoli, a bar on Queen St West. This was taken just as the evening began but with 11 vintage tables available it soon filled up. The tables range from an 1870s one to a 1960s one, all in great condition! And there is a full bar upstairs as well as downstairs on the main floor.

  2. That would be a fun place for a game of pool. I'm terrible at it but that doesn't stop me from trying.

    Just saw Music Man Sunday @ Maine State Music Theater.
    "... Friends, let me tell you what I mean.
    You got one, two, three, four, five, six pockets in a table.
    Pockets that mark the diff'rence
    Between a gentlemen and a bum,
    With a capital "B,"
    And that rhymes with "P" and that stands for pool!"

  9. I think I might have played one those tables when it was new. Used shoot pool in the 1950s 1960s on Danforth Ave. near Main St. If my memory serves me right, I think you had to be 16 years old to get in.
