I'm visiting Manhatten, NY this week and I am wondering if anyone has some historic Pool Halls to visit or some good 1pocket or 3cushion spots to visit.
Any ideas are welcome and appreciated!

Thanks everyone.

Carom Cafe isn't in Manhattan, but it's *definitely* worth the trip out to Queens from the city (34-02 Linden Place in Flushing). They have eleven 5x10 heated Verhoeven 3-cushion tables, twenty or so 4.5x9 Gold Crown pool tables, and three 6x12 snooker tables, table tennis, a full bar and restaurant, and more.

Sang Lee designed Carom Cafe as his dream room, and there's no other place like it. The layout of the room is truly inspired. It's where they just held the simultaneous Predator World 14.1 and Verhoeven Open 3-cushion tournaments featuring Efren Reyes and Torbjorn Blomdahl.

There's not so much 1-pocket there, but I promise you'll get more 3-cushion than you can handle ;) Locals include former US champions Hugo Patino ("Mr. 31") and Sonny Cho among many other strong players. You owe it to yourself to stop by!
