Corner Pocket West Seattle

Was expecting so much more. It was just eh. Service was blah. Place was clean and restrooms were kept up with. We were the first customers of the day. We got the beers and shots we ordered but bartending was hit or mjss and back of house seemed annoyed to help. They offer lots of playing options. If in the area again I wouldn’t return.

Cool little bar with pinball machines and a couple skeeball machines. Had a good time here.

Cool little place. Entrance is tucked away on the Main Street and down 20 steps to get inside. Full size pool tables in good condition rented by the hour. Drinks are good but they don’t serve doubles. Didn’t try any food here, not even sure if they serve any. Also got arcade games like ski ball. I’d come back if I’m ever in west Seattle again. The music playing was hard rock and light metal.

We had some friends in town and wanted to find a bar, watch games, play darts and pool if possible. I’ve lived in WS for 7 years and am ashamed I don’t go here more often. It had everything we were looking for! Great drinks, the place was spacious, plenty of tvs. I only tried a couple flavors of the wings and wasn’t a fan (I like crispy wings with fry rubs or sauces that don’t kill the texture) but maybe other things are good. Id highly recommend if you want to play pool, darts or pinball.

A fun bar with good food and drinks. They have pinball, Skeeball, darts, a jukebox, and 3 9’ gold crown pool tables. The middle table has been out of level for 2 years, they re-cloth the tables about every 18 months, and do not polish the balls regularly. They keep their house cues in good shape and they all have good useable tips and are generally pretty straight. The tables get a lot of use, and most nights require getting your name on a list to rent one, but there is pretty good turnover and rarely have to wait more than an hour before one is available. There is a great group of local pool players that tend to all share a table to avoid clogging the list and taking up multiple tables, they are welcoming to new players and set standards and maintain a culture of respecting the equipment. They have free pool on sundays, and often times this is when the longest wait times for a table occur. I have strongly encouraged the staff to implement a chalkboard style list at one of the tables on sundays. If they left 2 tables to be traditionally rented, and one table that all people are welcome to sign up and play, people could come in and immediately get into rotation while waiting for their turn at a private table. Some of the best pool bar cultures I have been a part of have included a chalkboard. It brings people together and builds a community. My understanding of the hesitancy revolves around having the equipment stolen since there is no specific person responsible for the balls, which are expensive and a target for theft. But I think there is a big enough community of regular players that there could be at least an option when grabbing the balls from the bar, that someone could also request the chalkboard and be responsible for both. or better yet, if the 2 private tables are already rented then the chalkboard table would be the last option to rent and you could keep your spot on the list for a private table but you are responsible for and able to use the chalkboard table until it becomes available. Leveling the center table next time the cloth is replaced, vacuuming the cloth at least once per week, polishing the balls at least once per week, and adding a chalkboard to the table closest to the bar would all be massive improvements to an already great bar. I can’t give it less than 5 stars as it is, but I hope these suggestions at least get a moment of honest consideration.

Not a bad spot. Rolled in for the pinball. Haven't been since the facelift and it looks great. Here at 4:00, so there's not really a bunch of people here, but I can see how this would be great for a graph group get together. Pool tables, pinball, skeeball, darts, booze, food. Seems cool so far. I'll be back a few more times to get a good feel. Starting off with a 4 star.

After an unfortunate NYE experience at Revelry Room, I found this little gem and really enjoyed my time here. The service was fantastic in all aspects and the bar has a fun and laidback atmosphere. The bartenders handed out a free champagne toast to everyone at midnight, which was so thoughtful and inclusive. I will definitely be back. 🙂

Great place to chill, play pinball and shoot some pool.
