Buffalo Billiards (CLOSED)

This cavernous adult playground has room for large groups (including college teams’ fan clubs), alcoves and private rooms for smaller parties, and a bevy of TVs tuned to every game. The staff here are battle-tested and capable of slinging your food and beers (of which there’s a surprisingly decent rotating selection). For those who want to play rather than watch, there’s shuffleboard, pool, darts and video games. Game-day is about being around other people, and during a big contest there’s a hum (and sometimes a roar) of excitement at Buffalo Billiards that can’t be beat.
