    You really can have a fun time at Pockets. It definitely can get old if you are not a pool guy though. Why on earth do they charge cover after a certain time to hear some terrible racket of a cover band. Once the band starts playing, talking becomes impossible, even at tables towards the back. A definite downside, though pretty normal for a lot of these joints, so no change in the 3 stars.

    Be sure to have cash. They charge a cover just to get through the door. (First I've seen at any pool hall) If you don't smoke and can't handle the smell, stay away. The food, service and pool tables aren't too bad if you can get past the the cover charge and smoke.

    Food was cold. Electricity went out during our visit and they told us we had to either stay until it came back on or leave our credit card. Uh, duh. Hell, no. We are just passing through, thank you. The manager wasn't smart enough to calculate our bill without the aid of his POS system. Wow. What a way to treat travelers. After an uncomfortably long time, they figured out where to find their prices (the menu) and how to calculate the 7.5% sales tax. We paid cash and got the hell out of there. Avoid.

    Over the years they have hired new management and servers who just don't care about their customers. Years ago Pockets was the place to go. Now you may wait 30 minutes for the server to even walk over to you and say hello. Most of the time they are all hanging out talking and gossiping. The manager even takes part of this. The only way to get service is to walk over to the bar, open a tab, ordered your beers, shots, and food, and when ready, carry your own items back to your table to enjoy. Pockets isn't what it used to be. The new Pockets is a place I don't forsee myself ever going back to.

    I was thinking about this crappy place this morning and just want to remind readers of my previous review and the fact that Pockets did everything they could to prevent bringing to justice the thug who hit my son with a baseball bat on New Year's Eve. Who does this type of thing? Pockets apparently condones this type of behavior from their employees and their customers. Stay away.

    Summary- I really, REALLY, wanted to give this bar 4 stars, but the smoke is unbearable for non-smokers. Pros- It's like Disney Land for alchoholics! Frozen beer mugs, good cocktails, good beer, awesome pool, great darts, a mini-bowling alley, live music, dance floor, big bar, friendly staff. Cons- SMOKE! It is crazy...this would literally be one of my favorite places in tally if there was no smoking.

    I agree w/other Yelpers, large place, decent service, good atmosphere, passable menu, good local atmosphere. I DO like that it is a cigar friendly venue. All in all, not bad, just not great either.

    When reading the following sentences, follow up with "for a pool hall". Pockets is fairly nice... They have a pretty good beer selection... The crowd is... alright... It's still smoky as all get-out, even... When reading the following sentences, follow up with "for ANY bar". The bathrooms are surprisingly clean... There are a decent number of TVs... Service is attentive... I was a little miffed that we were charged a $5 cover for the live band, considering we only stayed for an hour and the band hadn't even started playing yet(not that we were interested anyway... only came for a beer and to catch the end of a game). I would come back if I lived here and was either single or really wanted to play pool, so I guess that counts for something.

    The beers are huge (18oz) and they have a large selection of 'em. The pool tables are a-plenty. They have a midnight mini-bowling alley and an arcade, which is fun if you like games but aren't good at pool. Generally a chill place when I went (a Monday night). They allow smoking inside, which is a huge turnoff for me, but luckily the place is huge so I didn't feel too stinky when I left.

    If you're a college student looking to get intoxicated and meet some people, this might be a pretty good place. However... if you're a pool player looking for a great pool hall, you're much better off going to Zingale's. The pool tables at Pockets are mistreated on a daily basis by the college students that go there, so they tend to stay pretty dirty. It's also hard to play a serious game of pool here on busy nights because they have chairs set up next to the pool tables that people sit at, so people are constantly having to move when you try to shoot a game. In addition, the service here is pretty horrid. Almost every time I've been here, we don't even know who our waitress is because they never stop by. On many occasions when we finally found a waitress, it took forever to get the drinks we ordered. Also, on weekend nights, you're going to have to pay a cover charge just to get in the door..even if you're there just for pool and not for the band or karaoke. To sum it up- decent place to go as a college student looking to socialize...bad place to go for a serious pool game.

    If I could rate 0 I would. Our server has come by our table once in the past hour. I had to wait 20 minutes for a beer and then never saw her again. As my friends tell me, this is actually one of the better experiences they have had here. I've seen our server juggling bean bags and volley ping pong balls with the staff to pass time while ignoring her tables. As I speak that's what's currently happening. Needless to say we're leaving, going to a competitor, and won't be returning soon

    Monday's in Tallahassee usually mean you're stuck at home. Thank God for Pockets! Great location, huge clean facility, nice waitresses, good bartenders, and not expensive! Like most of Tallahassee the crowd will be locals and college students. And somehow not as smoky as most bars.

    A nice pool hall? It must be true, especially if it can occupy space right next to Chuck E. Cheese without causing alarm. But seriously this place is pretty big and because of that, there a few ways to entertain yourself here. There pool of course, but there's also a huge full bar, mini bowling and arcade games in the back. Also this is a good place to spark up a good cigar (that you can buy from Jerry's around the corner) and enjoy while catching a game. When I'm in town I normally spend at least one night here relaxing. The crowds are a mix of young and old and the vibe is nonthreatening, check it out.

    I liked it. Down home, full of locals, people trying to have a good time. Attentive and attractive waitresses, decent beer and overall very comfortable.

    Good old Pocket's. Huge place with plenty of pool tables, dart boards, friendly and usually quite attractive waitresses. You can get the $2.25 extra tall beers, the shots are failry cheap also. And most things I have tried on the menu were pretty pretty good. All in all, you can't really go wrong. Smoking inside is allowed but its not very overpowering at all. Be careful though, if you are not a karaoke fan , I believe thursday nights is karaoke night.
