I've been wondering lately if a truly "Retro" room WITH food and alcohol, along with 7 and 9 footers and regular weekend morning and weekday evenings league/tournament play might draw young and old alike. No FRI/SAT evening tourney's/leagues.Opening a poolroom on its face is not a good or bad idea. However, there is a reason why some poolrooms thrive while others struggle. In fact, two of New York's most successful rooms occupy locations of prior poolrooms that had gone under. I think, the key to success is understanding that simply having a few tables and a jukebox isn't enough. You need to be great and you need to constantly look for ways to remain relevant, not just in pool, but in your region's nightlife scene.
Is it a good idea? That's entirely on you.
No, not if if you enjoy pool! Not unless you are single, have more $ than you know what to do with, and spend 24/7 in a poolroom anyway.Should I open a pool room as a retirement plan or is that silly?
Those are all solid ideas but the truth is, there isn't a single winning formula. In my opinion, you want to double down on your pool experience while remaining flexible with your other ideas. You need a good and young team of employees who can feed you ideas on how to become/remain a staple in the nightlife industry.I've been wondering lately if a truly "Retro" room WITH food and alcohol, along with 7 and 9 footers and regular weekend morning and weekday evenings league/tournament play might draw young and old alike.
