We will never get tired of pool puns, because there are just so many good ones. Case in point: Eastside Billiards has been "bustin' balls since 1991." This stuff just writes itself. This place prides itself on owning 16 Brunswick Gold Crown III tables, which are considered to have superior craftsmanship (but would you expect anything else from the Upper East Side?). Even the sticks are routinely serviced and re-tipped. If the tables look so good, you are expected to as well: ladies can't show their stomachs and gentlemen must wear a shirt. Not the strictest of dress codes but enough to make sure that the game remains classy. Lessons are available for all levels if you don't yet feel confident with your game.
