Atomic Billiards

10/10! staying in dc for a bit and stumbled upon this dive bar , absolutely love it here. i’ve had positive interactions with every bartender and every bouncer who works here, they take good care of the 5 tables and have nice house cues. thursday-saturday seems like it’s always a bit tight and there’s a waitlist for the tables, but people seem to go for the vibe anyways, they have darts and shuffle boards for while you wait. everyone i’ve met here is very friendly , always down for a game- i usually show up alone and make friends along the way. if you play pool more seriously, it’s a good spot to practice during the week, if you’re just there for the vibe, it’s a good spot to meet people and have a fun time. much prefer this spot to other billiard houses i’ve visited in the area. have fun!!

We had a great time here. The tea was worth the money and so was the free preroll! We sat out on the patio and watched the game.

Never had a problem before but lowkirkenuinley the bartender today was straight up racist towards my group. He was like anctually insinuating we can’t afford $3 per person. Shouldn’t be bartending if you’re not capable of treating everyone equally.

Great atmosphere, good drinks, space to play on 8’ tables (though you’ll occasionally bump another person’s stick at an adjacent table. Very gay friendly and hosts a gay Stonewall Billiards league on Mondays. Occasional Sunday night tournaments, an APA league on Tuesdays, so if you are a casual shooter, come Wednesday through Sunday.

I loved the bartender gwendy she was so helpful this was my first time really touring dc and for my first date I came here with a friend he’s from here im from Baltimore the drink was amazing and the atmosphere was amazing 😻
