Pete Fusco's "The Spot" is a great place to play. Bristol Road off Old Lincoln Highway, in Trevose. All tables in really good shape. Karen Corr's old stomping ground before she moved out of state. Owner was a pro-player and cousin to pro Jimmy Fusco. There is also the "Rack Room" business route 1 in Langhorne. Older tables, not in as good a shape but "just pool" atmosphere, younger crowd, only open nites during the week. I'd check "The Spot" out first. :thumbup:
I'm not aware of any place out near 30th Street Station. I spent the winter at a hospital in that area and was dying to get out and play. There's scarcely a bar box out there. I've looked.
There are a couple billiard halls in the downtown area; mostly the kind that cater to the drinking and let's-play-pool-on-a-date crowd.
