Chain of pool halls? Where else were they located during their existence? Does anyone have any pictures of all the locations? Was the Concord, CA one (went and worked there during the mid 80s) part of the chain? Is it still the same owners through all 3 (or more) locations from Concord to SF to now San Mateo?
A family/group owned several pool halls in the Bay Area. I recently talked to someone who worked at the Berkeley and Fremont locations (both called Town and Country, I think). There were also rooms in Concord, San Mateo and the big one in San Francisco. He said the San Mateo room was renamed to Great Entertainer after SF closed.
There is currently a Town and Country in Daly City, but he said the owners are unrelated.
There was a Country Club Billiards in SF on Van Ness near Washington (IIRC) that had Nationals with gold cloth, and huge pockets. That was before the guy's time so he doesn't know whether it was owned by the same group. That was around 1966. It may have stayed open until the 70s.
