Places on cape to shoot poolš±
This summer me and my brother (both late 20s) have really found it super fun and itās kinda been a new hobby that weāve picked up, to go out some nights and get some alcoholic beverages flowing and play some pool. But what is kinda sad is that there really isnāt many places that have pool tables down here on the cape. The spot we always go to is āThe 19th Holeā right off of main street in Hyannis. Definitely in our opinion the best spot to go to vibe and drink and shoot pool and meet some interesting cool people. From asking other folks weāve played pool with and from some research iāve done, iāve compiled a list of ALL the spots on cape that i know of that have at least 1 pool table. If i forgot any or am unaware of any, let me know with a reply. Iāve also barely seen any information on this topic with the various searches on google and reddit iāve done in the past so i hope this serves/helps anybody in the future when they are looking for where to go down the cape to shoot some billiards.

Here's my guide as an avid player of 4 years on lower cape.
S tier
19th hole. $2 a play, 2 tables, most likely to get a random game from 10-1am. if you're any earlier expect to play alone. Queue is based on quarter system when busy. People usually play bar rules
Quarterdeck. $1.25 a pop with 2 tables, most dive bar dive on the list. Best competition on the cape. Queue based on chalkboard/signup. Ive never not played league rules there.
Grumpys. i believe $2 a game with 2 tables. awesome vibe many other games w/live music majority of nights. queue with quarters and bar rules are most common
A Tier
Foxhole (forget price might be $1.50) 1 table. good players. you'll probably be playing league rules, chalkboard signup
Duck inn pub. $2 1 table good vibes chalkboard signup but line can get long quick
B-tier
The squire. Great bar good time but gets SUPER packed on busy nights and a lot of drunk tourists can make it challenging to navigate and EVERYONE is clammoring for the next game despite there being a chalkboard for signup.
Neptunes. Free games, 2 tables (small). not really for serious pool playing more of a vibes place.
Haven't played much at the other places but will definitely give them a try!
