bar billiards

a traditional pub game played on a small table with pockets, combining elements of billiards and bagatelle, providing a social and skill-based pastime in pubs and bars

Bar billiards is a traditional game played on a special table with no pockets, typically found in pubs or social clubs. The game uses balls, a cue stick, and a table with small holes or "pins" placed around the edges. Players take turns trying to pot balls into these holes by striking them with the cue ball. Points are scored depending on which holes the balls land in. Bar billiards requires skill in controlling the cue ball and planning shots. It has been a popular pub game in England for many years and is often played in a relaxed, competitive setting.
