A look inside the Games Room at The Parcel Yard pub in London.
My fellow pub games enthusiast
John Moore recently told me that a friend of his had informed him that
The Parcel Yard pub at London's King's Cross train station has a Bar Billiards table! John relayed this information to me, so I had to go and take a look.
On my visit to the pub I couldn't see the Bar Billiards table, but did enjoy having a look inside as I'd never been there before. It's well worth popping in.
Having a look on the pub's website I noticed that the table is in the Games Room, so on my second visit I knew where to look. One of the pub's staff members was happy to show me the Games Room and I must say I was impressed with the setting.

Unfortunately the room and the games inside are not open for everyday casual play, as the room is often booked out for functions. However, I made an enquiry online and found out that the room can be reserved for events - both corporate and private meetings or parties. For more information drop The Parcel Yard team a line
via the website.
As big fans of
darts it was great to see there's a board in the Games Room too.

If Bar Billiards or darts aren't your thing, then the Games Room also has a Pinball Machine and other traditional games.
I'm looking forward to getting the chance to play the Bar Billiards at The Parcel Yard for a bit of a 'do'. A group of us had a brilliant time on our
London Bar Billiards Pub Crawl a couple of years ago and we do enjoy a
pub sport meet-up.
