Irish Cue

The Irish Cue recently changed ownership and the new owner, Mel Funk, has his heart into making this billiard hall/lounge/social gathering spot a pleasurable sports pub. He has decluttered, decorated, painted and rearranged the space for the better. He has improved the food, recovered and repaired the pool tables and cleaned up the restrooms. Stop in and shoot a few games of pool, watch the big game and meet new people. You won't be disappointed.

The Irish Cue is the type of place that doesn't try to be something it isn't, which in the lake area is somewhat refreshing. Instead, the Cue, as the locals call it, is an unpretentious pool hall with a smattering of dart boards and a decent live music lineup to keep things lively.Here you are likely to find all types of people, depending on the day/night: your hard core pool hustlers, professionals unwinding after work, teenagers and twenty-somethings looking for a place to down as much beer as possible and listen to music, and regulars who feel more at home in a bar than in their own house.In short, its your basic bar, with various entertainment options. Not the cleanest, not the hippest, but I can't say I've been to the Cue and haven't had a good time. You just have to know what to expect...it's not a place to be seen, it's a bar. And that's what I like about it.

Yes! Pool hall dive bar! Definitely don't have too many of these in the surrounding areas in the least. Luckily I stumbled on to this place via the Yelp app and had a friggin great time hanging here with some interesting people. Good crowd. POOL TABLES GALORE... a dozen maybe..? They do have food and it looks ok for not having much of a kitchen or cook staff. Makes for a good 4th meal. Drink specials everyday I'm pretty sure. This IS the place to hang out and knock em back over some fresh pool. They have a shot club where they dictate a particular shot for 50(?) shots, and you get some prize. Not sure. In any case, pool is modestly priced. Tourney play is every now and then and that takes priority over walk-ins, unless there is an open table. Watch out for the sharks! They're out here!

An pool bar with a membership system that is apparently optional? It was fine, food was a little below average, locals seem to dominate the place so it's an odd stop if you are new in town

good bar food, great games plenty of room and fun to shoot pool there. managed very well

Great pool hall. Nicest tables in the lake area. Beer is always cold, place is always clean, and Mona is always friendly and happy to see you.

Terrible Food, Terrible Service, Ambiance ruined our entire night. Will not be returning.

Owner refused to pay the $1500 when I won on the video slots. Happy to take your money when you lose. Okay to win a little. Win big and Ray won't pay! Also barred me. Sad. No ethics!
