Cdryden started a post about a room that is going downhill.
I have one locally also, and would be nice to hear about what others have experienced.
A new place opened in MA, fairly close to me, many years ago. Full restaurant with a side room with 8 new GC tables, setup well, played great. The manager was a pool lover who also filled the wall displays with high-end cues for sale, AE cues, several other $1,000 value cues, dozens of them. Had an APA team there.
After a while the bar area there started to add tables, which started to get in the way of a few of the pool tables. The tables started to need some work and the house cues were in bad shape. No-one re-clothed the tables in some time.
A few years later, half the tables were taken out.
A few years after that, the tables that remained were basically in storage, covered up, in the dark, with most of them having old crap stored around them. I don't think most of the staff there now even knows that there was a pool hall there, or that those things are pool tables.
As you can see, not a single mention of any pool tables in the place now http://fireflysbbq.com/index.php I doubt there are even any there anymore.
