Tooting Conservative Club: Pool & Snooker in London
Tooting Conservative Club is a long-standing members club on Ashvale Road, just off Tooting Broadway, and one of the home venues for the Battersea & District Pool League. It is the kind of unfussy, proper local club where you come for cheap drinks, friendly faces and a game on the table. There is snooker and pool here, plus darts, with live music on Saturday nights and a garden out the back.
This is a private members club, so the bar and tables are really for members and their guests rather than walk-in strangers. If you play league pool you may already be coming here for a fixture. Otherwise it is worth a call before you turn up. There is no per-game charge to play once you are in, which keeps a night here easy on the wallet.
The pool setup
You get both snooker and pool here, alongside darts, in the relaxed back-room style of a traditional members club rather than a flashy hall. It is a home club for the Battersea & District Pool League, so the table sees regular competitive play and there is a proper local crowd who know their game. If you are coming for a league fixture you will be in good company. For a casual frame, expect a friendly, low-key atmosphere where you play between drinks rather than booking a slot. There is no separate table charge once you are in.
Good to know
This is a private members club, which is the single most useful thing to understand before you go. The bar and tables are for members and their guests, so it is not a turn-up-and-play venue for the general public. Call ahead on 020 8672 4243 to ask about guest access or joining. Opening is generous: noon to 11pm on weekdays, later on Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights. There is live music on Saturdays and a garden for warmer evenings, so it doubles as a proper social club, not just a games room.
