Tokenhouse Liverpool Street: Pool & Snooker in London
The Tokenhouse is a Fuller's pub on Moorgate in the City, with a pool table tucked down in its speakeasy-style cellar bar. It suits after-work drinks turned into a few frames, small groups, and anyone who works nearby and wants something more relaxed than a packed City boozer. The single most useful thing to know: pool is free every Monday, with unlimited games on the cellar table.
Upstairs is a big open-plan bar in a former bank building, all grey tones and exposed ventilation, serving pub classics, craft beer and cocktails. Head down to the cellar for the pool table and a cosier feel. It is weekday-focused, open 11:00 to 23:00 Monday to Friday and generally closed or private-hire only at weekends, so plan your game for a weeknight.
The pool setup
There is a single pool table, and you will find it down in the cellar bar rather than on the main floor. The cellar is done up speakeasy style, cosier and a bit more tucked away than the open-plan ground floor, with its own bar. It is a pub table for casual frames between rounds, not a dedicated hall with a wall of tables, so come for the after-work-into-evening pace rather than a serious pool session. There is also a dartboard if you fancy switching it up.
Good to know
Free Pool Mondays is the headline: unlimited free games on the cellar table that day. Outside Mondays there is no published rate, so ask at the bar. The Tokenhouse is a weekday venue, open 11:00 to 23:00 Monday to Friday and closed or private-hire only at weekends, so aim for a weeknight. Food runs roughly midday to 16:00 and 17:00 to 21:00 on weekdays, with pub classics, craft beer, cocktails and wine. The cellar bar can be booked out for private events, so the table is not always free to walk up to.
Getting there
It sits at 4 Moorgate, EC2R 6DA, in a grand former bank building in the City. Moorgate station is the closest, a short walk away, and Liverpool Street and Bank are both an easy stroll if you are coming from that side. It is a handy spot if you work nearby and want a quick few frames after the office without trekking far.
