Griffs Bar and Billiards — Restaurant in Nevada

I have been coming here for 10+yrs (20+ if you count the old Pool Sharks) and my last couple experiences have completely ruined it.

Long story short: DON'T run a tab here unless you not only keep track of your purchases but also look closely at the final bill.

Both of my last 2 trips the staff pre-selected a tip on the card machine without notifying us. The first one was the bartender and we tipped in cash and then were handed the machine to sign with the tip already on it.

This time it was the waitress and after exceedingly bad service forgetting sides or drinks and coming back empty handed 3x sometimes she actually had the nerve to take the tip scam even further by not only selecting the amount but going so far as to specifically tell the card owner "sign here but don't touch any numbers so that I can print you a receipt after"

This is unreal. In my book that is outright theft and making an effort to conceal it. When caught on it she apologized and said she would void the charge.

Oh it gets worse... When she returned with the voided check it showed that she had added herself a $21 tip on $70 and on top of that an extra pizza was on there.

The bill should have been $55 but she had tried to charge $90 with the tip.

She apologized again saying that "the bartender was supposed to remove that extra one"..

Needless to say I will NOT be returning here. It's a shame but until someone does something about scamming employees I would say be alert and don't let them take advantage of you. I shudder to think of how many inebriated customers have been ...

Griff's is a giant cut above any room I've visited in the past 40 years, and I've seen a bunch! I wouldn't call it a billiard room, or a sports bar, or a fine short order restaurant... it's all of those, wrapped up in a luxuriously appointed clubroom atmosphere with velour-padded walls displaying nicely framed posters chronicling 75 years of billiard history. I counted 26 large screen TVs positioned throughout Griff's spacious room featuring 25 Diamond pool tables, and one 6-foot by 12-foot snooker table. I've enjoyed several meals at Griff's; the food is excellent. I also enjoyed the Goose IPA on tap.

Griff's is the place if you're looking to enjoy an hour or two of pocket billiards with your significant other on one of the 7- foot tables, or a challenge match with your favorite opponent on one of the 9- foot tables.

Griff's is your place, too, if you're looking to enjoy a couple of beers watching your home team play on the large screens behind the bar or in the lounge area, both with comfortable leather seating.

And while you're there you might want to take advantage of their menu of delicious sandwiches, burgers, salads, top notch appetizers, or a bowl of tasty, cold "peel and eat" shrimp.

If you like pool or sports like I do, Griff's is a must visit while you're in Vegas, or a good place to while away a few hours if you live here...

If you like awesome Diamond pool tables and you hate breathing cigarette smoke and smelling like an ashtray when you get home, you'll absolutely love Griff's! They put a lot of money and effort into making this the finest pool hall in Las Vegas and possibly America.

The decor is beautiful the staff is friendly and in the places kept very clean. They have great food especially the wings and pizza. I'm not a fan of their nachos but that's my only thing I could think of that isn't awesome here, I still give it 5 stars because you can always improve on something!

Plenty of 9 ft professional Diamond tables and enough 7-foot Diamond tables for any league night to be enjoyable on well maintained equipment. This place still looks brand-new inside and I hope it stays that way for years to come!

More than anything I hope they continue with a no smoking policy because it's very refreshing (literally) in a town such as Las Vegas to go into a bar or pool hall without cigarettes and cigars and vape smell and smoke everywhere. Thank you for finally putting a fantastic pool hall in Vegas.

The word is out and even the professionals that come to town and all of the players that are here for event are going to this place to play. Drink prices are...
