London Snooker Tooting: Pool & Snooker

PaidMembership requiredAmerican poolSnookerLate nightGroups

2a Lynwood Road, Tooting, London (pool room at 6-8 Upper Tooting Road, SW17 7PG) · SW17 8SA · Mo-Fr 14:00-02:00; Sa-Su 10:00-02:00

London Snooker Tooting is a proper neighbourhood cue-sports club, not a flashy bar with a couple of tables in the corner. It runs two spots a short walk apart: the original snooker and pool club at 2a Lynwood Road, and a newer dedicated pool room on Upper Tooting Road above Tolian's Deli. Between them you get full-size snooker, American pool and English pool, plus a bar with drinks and snacks.

It suits anyone who actually wants to play, from regulars potting after work to mates looking for a late session. The most useful thing to know is that it stays open very late, well past midnight every night, and table booking runs through annual membership rather than pay-on-the-door, so sort that first if you want to reserve a table.

The pool setup

There is a genuine range of tables here, which is rare for one operator. The Lynwood Road club leans on full-size snooker, while the Upper Tooting Road pool room is built around American pool, including American Diamond tables the owner says are the only ones in the UK, alongside English tables. Expect roughly hourly rates of about £9 for English pool, £10 for snooker and £11 or so for American pool. It is a play-focused space rather than a bar that happens to have a table, so you get room to actually take your shots.

Good to know

Booking a table runs through membership rather than walk-up pay. Annual membership is cheap, in the region of £15 for students and around £22 to £25 for adults, and it covers both Tooting venues. Bring valid ID when you sign up. Non-members can usually look round by checking in with staff first. There is a bar on site for drinks and snacks, so you do not need to duck out between frames. Opening is generous: into the early hours every day, with weekend mornings from 10am.
