So far, we have been talking about places where playing pool is sort of the focus.

But what about bars where playing pool is secondary to other things like partying, dancing and drinking?

If you like to party and want the option to play pool while doing other things, any of the bar Hillary’s is a good place to start.

Live music, happy hour specials, and a wide variety of food are just some reasons why Hillary does so well.

It’s a great place to hangout, with a fun and wild crowd who never shy away from a few Fireball or Tequila shots.

When you are tired of partying, go upstairs to shoot some pool with a friend and have fun or meaningful conversations.

On the flip side, when you are bored of playing pool, head downstairs to be part of all the action.

The good thing is that no matter if you choose to be upstairs or downstairs, you can always hear and enjoy the bands playing live music.

For those who want it all under one roof and who plan to go clubbing later that night, Hillary 11 is a great choice.

Whether playing pool is an afterthought or the main activity for the night, The PIMP is a good option.
