Looking for a pool hall near Elgin, IL

there use to be a great place in Elgin but it closed. It had a full steak house attached as well as a night club, and 9 foot diamonds.

Now, the closest pool hall will be in Addison, at Pyramid Sports Bar with 16 GC's. Otherwise, it's just bars around with 3 or 4 bar boxes, some of them Diamonds.
 
That was Tom Karabotsis's place, but it only lasted about a year.

Scott was that the Shark something? I played there once and they had lots of 9 and 7 foot tables.

No it was called On Cue and was off Randall Rd. They built a multi million dollar restaurant with the pool hall upstairs, they opened it up just about the same time the economy went sour. I was there several times, the last time I went the 9 ft diamonds had been turned into coin op tables at a buck a game. Said no thanks to that and bought a bottle of water, they charged me five bucks for that. I left and they closed a couple months later. End of story..

BTW the tables at Fox & Hound are 8 ft diamonds...

You might be thinking of Shark City in Glendale Heights. They just have 4 or 5 diamond bar boxes now. But they do have an OTB there, which is pretty sweet.

Oh nice. I was not even gonna point him in that direction, cause I have not been there in years, they go through new owners like underwear, and didn't realize they finally got some nice tables.
