Pool Rooms in Tennessee
- Thread starter SpiderJerusalem
- Start date
There are a couple of rooms, the closest is the Sevierville billiard club and the other is called Bailey's, in Knoxville off the cedar bluff exit on I-40. I had a fall out with the owner of SBC so I don't go there anymore but he does have nice diamond tables.
Everyone has had a falling out with Mike at one time or another but he is a good dude.
Sevierville Billiard Club is on Main Street/Chapman HWY going north. If you are coming out of S'ville it is up the hill just past Hardee's across the bridge on the right.
The other spot with Diamonds is Breakers in Knoxville, about 45 min from S'ville.
SBC would be your best bet since the drive to Knoxville is 45 minutes. If you decide to come into Knoxville...
Breakers, 5000 Clinton Hwy, Knoxville, TN 37912. Tel: (865) 688-6475, opens at 4pm Sunday-Thursday and 11am Fri-Sat.
Full Bar and Grill (decent prices and good drink specials)
8 7ft Diamonds and 1 Blue Label 9ft from Turning Stone along with some custom made 8fts and an antique 9ft.
Tournaments a cpl of nights a week as well as league 3 nights.
If you are looking to match up you can usually find 9-ball or 1hole action to suit what you wanna play for.
Smoking is allowed.
Knoxville Billiards Club, 3920 Chapman Highway, Knoxville, TN 37920-4254. Tel: (865) 579-9142
Opens everyday by 11am
NO BAR but possibly the best Cheeseburgers in town and the best price on breakfast you can get.
2 main tables are an antique trick Brunswick and a 9ft Diamond. They have other tables, 6 valleys and 8+ and 9ft Gandys but not in the greatest of shape.
They have an 8ball tournament one night a week and no league play.
This is the 1pocket "room" with lots of cheap/moderate action.
Not a place to bring a date as usually only a pool player would see anything redeeming in the place.
Non-smoking.
Baileys Sports Bar, 250 N Seven Oaks Dr Knoxville, TN 37922 - (865) 531-2644
Opens at 11:30 every day.
Full Bar and Grill (Overpriced and horrible drink specials)
8-9ft and 11-8over 15year old AE Schmidts that have seen their better days. They have simonis and red circles but that's the short list of what to like about the equipment.
No tournaments but they have leagues on Monday and Wednesday with free pool on Sunday afternoon if you have an active APA card.
Action is sparse as you might be able to match up playing some 9-ball sets on one of the 8overs if you are super lucky to catch 1 of bout 3 guys there. This is not the place you want to go alone to practice as they charge 8-10 an hour for the table. The other 2 rooms charge 3-3.50 and hour per person.
Smoking is allowed.

I disagree
Those of us he has ripped off and stolen from do not agree. Mike Henry is not a good guy. Just the opposite. If you don't give him free cues and do every thing he wants for free he starts lies and goes out of his way to ruin your rep. Russel and I arn't the only ones. Many have come before us. And he is telling you he charges one thing and then when you go to pay makeing you pay double. I don't go in there anymore but everyone who does has complained to me about it.

I went by Breakers in Knoxville when I was in town (just happened to be going to Sevierville and Gatlinburg myself), and it is closed down! The building is boarded up and has a for sale sign. The article online says it was closed for being a public nuisance (drug sales and such).
