The Royal British Legion Hillingdon is a committee-run members club on Uxbridge Road in UB10, and it is the home club of the Hayes & District Pool League. If you want a relaxed, no-frills place to play pool in the Uxbridge area, this is a solid bet. There are three tables here, with the main bar table used for league fixtures and two more in the backroom, so there is usually space to get a game going.

It is a friendly, family-friendly club with licensed bars, a beer garden with BBQ facilities, and an upstairs function hall. Pool and darts are the regular pastimes, and the crowd skews local and league-minded. Walk in, grab a drink, and play. It suits casual players, regulars, and anyone chasing a proper neighbourhood club feel rather than a polished bar.

The pool setup

There are three pool tables across the club. The main bar table is where the Hayes & District Pool League fixtures get played, and the venue is a home club for the league, so on match nights expect that table to be busy with team games. Two more tables sit in the backroom, listed as Backroom Left and Backroom Right, which gives you somewhere to play even when league matches are on. It is coin-or-club-style table play in a traditional members club, not a booked-by-the-hour pool hall, so the vibe is casual and social rather than formal.

Good to know

This is a committee-run members club with licensed bars, so it leans toward locals and members rather than passing trade. There is a beer garden with BBQ facilities for warmer days and an upstairs function hall for events. Pool and darts are the main games on offer. Hours run Monday to Thursday 3pm to 11pm, Friday and Saturday noon to 1am, and Sunday noon to 11pm, so weekends give you the longest window. Call ahead on 01895 251796 if you are not a member and want to check access before turning up.
