Embassy Snooker & Social Club Walthamstow: Pool & Snooker in London
Embassy Snooker & Social Club is a traditional snooker and pool hall on the High Street in Walthamstow, a short walk from St James Street Overground. If you want frame after frame on well kept tables without the West End prices, this is the local spot for it. It suits regulars, league players and anyone who fancies a relaxed afternoon or evening over a cue.
The club runs a fully licensed bar with snacks, and the room is air conditioned, so it stays comfortable through long sessions. It is a members-style social club rather than a flashy bar, so expect a friendly, no-frills crowd and a focus on the actual game. Call ahead on 020 8520 2414 to check table availability and current rates before you head down.
The table setup
This is a dedicated snooker and pool hall, so the tables are the whole point. Expect full-size snooker tables that are well maintained, plus pool for anyone who prefers the shorter game. It is set up for serious play, including league and competition use, rather than as a side attraction to a bar. If you are coming as a group or want a specific table, ring ahead, since availability can vary by time of day and the club runs organised play. Exact table counts and current hire rates are best confirmed by phone on 020 8520 2414.
Good to know
There is a fully licensed bar serving drinks and snacks, and the whole place is air conditioned, which makes a difference over a long session. This is a social club, so play is paid and you should expect to book or check ahead rather than just turning up to a guaranteed free table. Opening hours are not published online, so call 020 8520 2414 to confirm times and pricing before travelling. Getting there is easy: St James Street Overground is closest, with Blackhorse Road and Walthamstow Central tube within reach, plus buses 158, 230, W12, 212, 275 and 675.
