Hi all, I was wondering if anyone wanted to play pool on a regular basis, maybe like once a week or something. I am not so good, but this could be fun anyway. We could all decide on a place that serves some good drinks and also has a few tables, but i am not sure where. Any takers?

Well, based on the response, weekends it is. Do you guys know a place that has good tables, good drinks, and possibly even good food? We could eat somewhere else, and just collectively go to the pool place. Since I havent really played pool in the city as much, you pick.

I usually play in the Ostbahnhof sports bar. Lots of tables, good beer and service. I don't think they serve food, but Sutlej and Ganesh are closeby.

Ostbanhof is good. Bit expensive , think its 9 euros for a table for an hour..But it is a pool players paradise.
Who is Sutlef n Ganesh? Anyway - just tell them we will drop by
When? I can only make it Friday

Ganesha. They are Indian restaurants. They are just the two places I know are nearby.

@devil: Wouldn't mind really.
I was expecting that a few people would post different locations (Ostbahnhof is the only good one I know). And friday evening is a weekend !!

I always find myself sayin' this to pool players, but the Schelling Salon (on Schellingstr surprisingly) is very good - got a real atmosphere to the place, and it's also central - very, very close to the Arc in fact. Tables used to be €7 an hour - though I've not been in a while (like 18 months). Food is proper Bavarian slop, but very cheap indeed.

You can also play in the Isar Bowling on the Tegernseerlandstr. (nearest U-bahn is Silberhornstr.). The first level down has pool tables and a couple of snooker tables too. No decent food though.
@Vishal
You can always go to McD's upstairs though before or after or before AND after!!!
Kaffee Giesing is only round the corner and is cool with live jazz music almost every weeknight I think. Infact now I think about it I believe there are pool tables at the back of the cafe so you could go there and kill 2 birds with one stone.

Maybe we could meet up in an Indian Restaurant. Well, I mean, a good Indian Restaurant. Just thought of that, not too imp though. But we could go to the place that Madgibson just suggested. We could have a few drinks, then get to playing. What do you think. 7:30 sound good.

Due to popular Demand, we could in fact have more than one day to play pool, it depends on all those attending. How about all you guys just state the days of your availability, then we can decide. Although I am quite keen on coming tonight. Come on, show some spirit. And Madgibson, how about you. Lets get ready to Break (pool balls I mean

)
I'm good every night next week, but am very scared to go anywhere in munich cause I just got here 5 days ago, so I would need very good directions!

No probs SOB, this is where we could meet.
Isar Bowling on the Tegernseerlandstr. (nearest U-bahn is Silberhornstr.) Just take the U8 to Neuperlach Zentrum, and then just around the corner.

Allright, here is what we can do, Lets meet at 7:30 here:

Its on the U8 at Neuperlach Zentrum. Hows that. Lets finalize this place.

We could do that next week. I think with toooo many possibilities, it gets harder for everyone to select an appropriate place. Lets meet at the Isar Bowling place tonight, then we could gather a consensus on where to meet next time.
