CarPool

So glad this place is back in Arlington! They have a lot of the original decor and still have pool tables. Substantial beer selection and they had good bar food. We went for happy hour and all orders were through the bar, but it wasn't hard to get to it. Might change as they staff up.

A great classic place returns to Ballston! While it's hard to replace what Carpool used to be, they did a great job with the new location. Great food, drinks, and plenty of good times.

I was really excited to find out that a place opened up with pool tables in Ballston. We had a good time, grabbing some beer and playing some pool. The bartenders were very friendly. Their boneless buffalo wings were solid but their fried pickles were just okay, a little too crispy. The continental definitely has better fried pickles. We saw a fried chicken and waffle sandwich go by that looked delicious and will definitely have to try next time that we're there.

So happy this place came to Ballston. No nonsense, long menu filled with bar classics, plenty of beers and reasonably priced. The cherry on top are the 4 pool tables tucked in the back alongside pinball machines and darts. Don’t think it’s been open for long, but it immediately has a neighborhood feel. Service from the bartenders and staff is attentive and personal. The soundtrack also consists of classic rock and country classics which is a nice break from the typical top 40 playlist.

Great food and drink options! Got the veggie burger which was amazing, fried pickles, and sliders. Hang out with Mike at the bar if you can, he’s the best.
