The Coach & Horses is a proper Tottenham local pub on the High Road, just along from the Spurs ground, with a pool table tucked among the darts board and sports screens. It suits anyone after a low-key game over a pint rather than a polished pool hall, and Spurs fans on a match day. The single most useful thing to know is that this is a pub table you walk in and play, not a bookable venue, so it works best on a quiet afternoon before the room fills up.

Expect a classic community boozer: a beer garden out back, plenty of Spurs memorabilia on the walls, live sport on the TVs and a crowd that knows each other. It is an Enfield District Pool League member pub, so the table sees regular competitive play.

The pool setup

There is a pool table in the pub, sat alongside the darts board and the sports screens rather than in a dedicated games room. It is a single table in a community boozer, so this is casual play between rounds, not a multi-table hall. The Coach & Horses is a member pub of the Enfield District Pool League, which means the table gets regular competitive use through the league season. On league nights the table may be tied up, so if you just want a knockabout, an earlier or quieter slot is your best bet.

Good to know

This is a walk-in pub, not a bookable venue, so there is no online slot to reserve. The table is first come, first served, and you put your name down or wait your turn the old-fashioned way. The pub opens late morning through to midnight on weekdays and 1am on Friday and Saturday, so there is plenty of time for a game. There is a beer garden out back for warmer days. It sits close to the Tottenham Hotspur ground, so match days get busy and loud.
