Side Pockets

Good place to unwind, play some pool, darts, or just catch up on a great game of choice on their many overhead TVs. Fully stocked bar with a great selection of everything. Even those hard to find Zero beers for the responsible person.

My wife, friends and I had a great experience at Side Pockets in Blue Springs. They have great pool tables, super tasty jalapeño cheese bites and fun dart machines as well. The only off-putting experience for me was when we were initially trying to play on the dart machines. A prompt popped up on the screen for some kind of registration process that could be bypassed but we weren’t sure how to do it. After a very polite employee tried to override it for several minutes and couldn’t figure it out, he called over another gentleman who asked/stated things like (paraphrased): “Who touched the buttons?” “I figured this out in 9 seconds.” “I blame the educational system.” Just some arguably degrading things.

Had a great experience at Side Pockets Bar yesterday! The service was friendly, fast, and attentive the whole time. You can tell the staff really cares about making sure everything is right. I ordered the chicken wrap and it was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to.

Extremely large and nice pool hall/sports bar. Menu with nice variety, reasonable prices and solid Happy Hour specials -plus an hour of free pool Monday-Friday with an entree purchase between 11-2.

My food was good , service was bad. Had a couple of people went home and spent most of the night in the bathroom after eating the nachos. They were not drinking. Tried to over charge some of the people that was with us.
