The White House: Pool & Snooker in Enfield, London
The White House is a traditional community local on Hertford Road in Enfield Lock, run by Craft Union. If you want a no-fuss pint and a game of pool in a proper sports pub, this is the kind of place you turn up to rather than book. There is a pool table and a dart board, plus big screens showing Sky Sports and TNT Sports, so it gets busy around fixtures.
It is a member pub of the Enfield District Pool League, so the table sees regular competitive play as well as casual games. Expect karaoke, live music and the occasional disco on top of the everyday drinks and sport. It is dog friendly, family friendly during the day, and has a garden out back.
The pool setup
There is a single pub pool table here, the standard format you find in a local rather than a dedicated pool hall. It shares the room with a dart board and the sports screens, so the table is part of the general pub rather than tucked away. As an Enfield District Pool League member pub it is set up for league nights as well as casual frames, which means the table can be in use for matches on some evenings. Best bet is to turn up, get a drink and ask at the bar if a game is on.
Good to know
This is a walk-in local, so there is no booking for the pool table. Hours are noon to 11pm Monday to Thursday and noon to 11:30pm Friday to Sunday. It is a Craft Union pub, so expect everyday prices on beers, wines and spirits rather than anything fancy, and there is no cask ale at the moment. Live sport is on most days across Sky Sports and TNT Sports, with karaoke, live music and discos adding to the mix. There is a garden, free Wi-Fi and step-free access to the toilet.
