229 Mile End Road, Stepney Green, London · E1 4AA · Mo-Su 14:00-03:00

Mile End American Pool and Snooker is an old-school pool hall on Mile End Road, a short walk from Stepney Green station. It runs six American pool tables and three full-size snooker tables, so it suits proper players and anyone who wants a serious frame rather than a quick novelty game. The single most useful thing to know: it is a members-only club, though members can sign in up to two guests, and it stays open very late, from 2pm right through to 3am every day.

Expect a low-lit room with a working men's club feel, a bar, a food menu and a cue shop if you need kit. Tables are charged by the hour. Ring ahead or check the membership setup before you turn up, especially if you are bringing a group.

The pool setup

There are six American pool tables here, plus three full-size snooker tables for anyone who wants a longer, more technical game. The room is dimly lit with an old-school, working men's club atmosphere, which is part of the draw if you find shiny bar pool a bit soulless. There is also a cue shop on site selling cues and accessories, so this is a spot that takes the game seriously. Regular competitions and events run through the year, so it tends to attract regulars and decent players rather than casual passers-by.

Good to know

This is a members-only club, so it is not a straight walk-in for everyone. Members can bring up to two guests, which is the usual way newcomers get in. Tables are charged by the hour, and the venue is the best source for current rates, so call ahead on the listed number. There is a bar and a food menu in the lounge area if you want to make a night of it. Opening hours are generous, 2pm to 3am every day, making it one of the later options in the area.
