Surge Billiards

Had a wonderful time here. My brother and I came early to have a drink and something to eat before an event in the back theater. Was waited on by a very nice Ukrainian lady and Trevor, bartender extraordinaire.

I dont play pool. They have a room in the back that u can rent for local shows and see comedians. This place is esthetic. Good food. Prices for drinks are average.

Nice, clean, and spacious place to play pool. Friendly and attentive staff. Good music and nice drink selections

This is one of the nicest billiards spots I’ve been to in the Chicago area! The tables are sleek and sexy, and the sticks are in top shape—no warping, cracks, or that beat-up feel you get at other places. The tables are spaced well, so you’re not bumping into the folks next to you while you play. The service was on point, and the staff was super friendly. We even chatted until closing time at 2 or 3 AM. Definitely a spot I’d come back to!”

They do not accept same-day table reservations - be aware. But you can call for an estimate on the current wait time. Ours was answered promptly - 2 people ahead of us so anywhere between 15 - 30 minute wait. 1 large table is available upon arrival and we play immediately. We ate, had drinks & an all-around blast. I lost all night but will be back. This is one of the best pool halls in the city.
