Great place to play pool, tables are well taken care of and plenty of places to put your drink besides the tables. Staff is fun, especially lisa . When you tired of pool, opt for the long wall of darts. Plenty of parking !

I cant believe an establishment like BANANAS would tell a grown woman her shorts are too short. I didnt know BANANAS had a dress code for NORMAL shorts. And on top of that to be rude for no reason. Next time if youre a woman make sure you wear a snowsuit and boots just incase open toe sandals is to scandalous for them

I have always had a good time here, Im not much of a billiards player because I have to get drunk to sink a ball, then Im on fire, then Im too drunk to sink a ball, so I have one and a half good games and Im done. Im more of a dart player and Bananas has the newest dart boards Ive seen, cold beer and friendly people. I would go here more often, but I live a little far, so I either start there, or stop in if Im in the neighborhood. Go check them out.

Drove all the from seguin because my bf has been wanting to play pool.. I dont like going to local bars because Im currently pregnant and there is too much smoke. I searched online and saw good reviews for this one. We got there and was asked for ID, we gave our ids and because my bfs ID is cut on top due to him waiting for his cdl bartender said we couldnt be in there because she was almost arrested 2 weeks ago. Arrested for what? Letting a 25 and 27 year old play pool? Waste of time

Great hole in the wall pool hall. Great tables and darts area. This is the kind of place you think about when you think of a neighborhood bar/pool hall. Nothing fancy here but thats not why people come here. The bar is big and the prices are good. They have a ton of tables so even if you have to wait a few mimutes for a table it shouldnt be long. Id go back to Bananas yo shoot pool any time.

Decent place, but rates to play pool much too high. I travel constantly in my work, Most decent pool halls offer good tables for $6 an hour. It does not matter whether one, two or three people play, the usage of the table is the same. Diamond tables are becoming popular everywhere for a much more reasonable rate.

If I owned a pool/billiards lounge this is close to what itll be like and definitely the atmosphere Ill be going for. The staff are very friendly and helpful, the place is clean and doesnt have that old pool hall smell, the tables are professional grade. So they have two 9 diamonds and eight 8 diamonds, they have darts, good music, moderately priced drinks. They are usually opened from 2pm to 2am. They have tournaments all the time- 9 ball on Friday evenings, 8 ball some Thursdays etc. If youre in San Antonio and want to shoot pool this is the spot. Youll find good action there too.
