4.5 stars. Tables and cue sticks are generally in good condition, which is the number one thing I look for in a pool setting. The only flaw was that the baulk line on our table could hardly be seen, but it didn’t interfere with our games at all. In fact, there were more pros: great lighting, chilled vibes and upbeat music. This place is also clean unlike many other pool places that are usually filthy and polluted with cigarette smoke. It is also important to note that space can be limiting because you might bump into someone else from another table especially if you are the one shooting. Nonetheless, Four Season is an affordable chill spot that’s also opened late until 2:30AM. I don’t shoot pool often but when I do, I would definitely come back to enjoy this venue.

I really like playing here! Prices are pretty cheap($ 10/hour if you’re in a group of four). When I played pool for the first time, I felt pretty intimidated because everyone else was more experienced and I was pretty n00b-ish. My friends and I come here occasionally after classes, so I don’t really feel so self-conscious about playing anymore. I like how the playlist is up to date with the latest songs in English. The songs at DIY Billiards are in Chinese, and are mainly melodramatic love songs that give me a headache. On a side note, a game of pool can be really relaxing and releases stress from the day. However, it can be just as frustrating when it’s one of those days when you can’t seem to make it into any of the holes. It’s fun how competitive and technical it can get between me and my friends. The owner is pretty friendly and the place gets full pretty quickly, so try to come during off-peak hours, especially before students get out of school!

My favorite pool hall located in Queens. Fair sized pool hall probably suited for highschoolers and adults. I come here very often and the guys who run the place are nice. They have Brunswick Tables with decent felt and a variety of house cues to choose from. They also have 2 Carom tables up front. $ 10/hr with snacks and beverages for purchase at the front. Good selection of music and tvs on the walls for your entertainment. They also have a couple of arcade games located in the back. Overall, great place to shoot pool for the price and would recommend it to those who wouldn’t mind noise. If you prefer quiet, I would recommend going when the place opens for no one would be there just yet.

In a nutshell: Very affordable pool hall in Flushing on Northern Blvd. So the best part about waiting on family for dinner in Flushing is that you have some free time to walk around and check everything out. The worst part about waiting on family in Flushing when it’s winter time is that you have to go indoors at some point or you freeze your @$$ off. I was with my cousin at the time who used to go to school in the area and suggested this spot. When you walk in you are immediately«greeted”/snarled at by four old Asian dudes playing real billiards. All good, as I’m used to walking into establishments in Flushing and getting that look from old timers… is it because I’m a big guy? Is it because I’m a little old to be walking into an establishment with a 17 year old even though he’s my cousin? Oh well. Parking 3⁄5 I think there’s street parking. I’m a firm believer that no one should ever drive anywhere in NYC unless you’re going to New Jersey, Upstate, or Long Island. Ambience 4⁄5 Lots of tables, with plenty of seating against the walls. No actual chairs, though, which I think is better as it would clutter up the place. There is one guy behind the register where you pay for your time, and maybe purchase some snacks/ramen. I can see this place being real cramped if all the tables were being used, but there were only 5 tables in use this evening. Service 3⁄5 Fine…no complaints here. Food 2⁄5 Don’t expect fine dining here. You’ll find all the snacks that teenagers enjoy here. Price 4⁄5 At $ 8 an hour, how can you complain? $ 2/hr if there are 4 of you, and that’s plenty of games. Overall 3⁄5 Very reasonable place. Yeah it’s hidden from the rest of Downtown Flushing, but it’s definitely a good spot to hang with friends and family.

Very small pool hall, but there’s always a table. If you want something better with more of a crowd then go to Carom 2 blocks away.
