Center Pocket Sports Bar

As I continue to support local businesses and restaurants, I was directed to another gem! Corner Pocket Sports Bar in Bowie, MD. From the outside I didn't expect to see the huge open area with billiards, TVs, sitting areas, and a bar. As my brother and I went to the bar to learn about the menu, we were welcomed by Nic, who not only took our order but she introduced us to the owner, Leia. (I mean, who takes the time to do that nowadays!) Leia was so warm and kind as she shared about the venue and made me and my brother feel like family. Thanks also to Irene for her warm & welcoming spirit. Let's just say, that as we only planned to spend no more than an hour to eat/drink; we were there until closing. The food was tasty and the drinks were very good. We found a new local hangout for the New Year!

After returning from my birthday trip, my friends bullied (lol) me into doing something locally to celebrate. I saw this place on social media and rolled the dice and chose Center Pocket to celebrate. From the time I arrived I was greeted and treated well. This place was bigger than I expected. Unbeknownst to me, I was chatting and joking with the manager before he even introduced himself as the manager. They can make a drink here child. One of the few places in the DMV where I felt that the price per drink matched the quality of the drink. My friends played pool and enjoyed it. A slight wait but it was a Saturday night, so expected. I got a birthday shout-out. All of my friends enjoyed themselves, as did I. I would absolutely visit again.

Commanders fans definitely welcome! This place was very grown and Sexy and gave a good vibe. It was lively during the game and I had a great time! 3.5/5 : Cheeseburger 🍔 The cheeseburger was good. It reminded me of a quarter pounder, Angus beef taste and flavor. They have fresh lettuce, tomatoes on top would knock some points off for me was no sauce options really other than ketchup and mayonnaise.

Love this place. Great wings and atmosphere. It’s nice to have a place you can go to eat, drink, and do a fun activity. I actually think I’m getting better at pool. It’s definitely an older crowd with a few under 30 mixed in. People are friendly and they have lots of tvs to watch sports. During the week you really can’t beat the HH prices.

I am a multicultural person of color. I don’t mean to make this a race issue. However i thought this was a safe place for a person of color it is not. There were people that were white (again not that I care. I just come to get my wings and go. I don’t want any drama. They catered to white folks that ORDERED AFTER my friend and I.) With that being said the two white people that were so catered to said they felt “threatened” because they were around black people the owner was quick to kick me and my black friends out. He did not even try to get our side of the story. If the owner hates himself for being a POC that’s on him and he wants to cater to trumpie whites I guess that’s on him as well. But to immediately cater to the white folks without even asking or trying to understand my friends and I side of the story. The white folks were talking shit to my friends and when I checked temperatures I was in the wrong. The owner said they have security footage but when we asked for it they never showed it. He proceeded to say “I have a business to run”. And yes he does have a business to run but at the same time he needs to run a fair business. I am not a person that sees black and white a
