10-11 Broadway Parade, Coldharbour Lane, Hayes · UB3 3HE · Mo-Su 11:00-23:00

Pub Punjabi is a Punjabi pub and bar on Broadway Parade in Hayes, and it is a proper pool spot. It is the home venue for the Hayes and District Pool League, with pool tables in the main bar and league nights running through the week. The crowd is local and social, the kitchen does Indian food cooked in house, and there is a beer garden out back. It suits anyone who wants a relaxed game with a pint and a curry rather than a polished pool hall. The most useful thing to know: play is casual and walk-in, so you can turn up, grab a table when one is free, and rack up. League matches do take over the tables on fixture nights, so it is worth a quick check before you head down if you want a clear run.

The pool setup

The pool tables sit in the main bar, which doubles as the home of the Hayes and District Pool League. Pub Punjabi runs its own team in the Premier Division, and a second side, the Coldharbour Crew, also plays out of here. That means the tables get plenty of use and the regulars know their stuff. On a quiet afternoon or early evening it is an easy casual game, but on league fixture nights the tables are reserved for matches. There is darts here too if the cues are busy, so the bar leans towards games-and-a-pint rather than a quiet sit-down.

Good to know

Pub Punjabi sits at 10-11 Broadway Parade on Coldharbour Lane, a few minutes from Hayes & Harlington station. It is open every day from 11am to 11pm. There is no charge to come in and the pool is casual, so it is walk-in rather than booked. The kitchen does Indian food cooked fresh in house, the bar runs craft beer through to spirits, and there is a garden out the back for warmer days. It was once the George Orwell Wetherspoons, so the building is bigger than your average local.
