Recently visited Main Street billiards and just an overall great atmosphere and vibe. The music was really good, not too quiet and not too loud. Many places to sit and grab a drink on a Friday or Saturday night. They have plenty of outdoor seating as well as they serve food. Highly recommend for something to do in downtown Rochester Hills. Always enjoy coming here. There are 2 sides, a bar area with a dance floor and a billiards area with arcades.

Went tonight for line dancing. Thought it was lessons but, that was not the case. Still a lot of fun good group of people... my friends and I had a great time... maybe Ill learn how to line dance.. who knows👍😊 we tried their pizza.. not bad, not great but they are not a pizza place so, it was fine.

Great place to hang out, especially late at night. Not my first choice for food, but drinks and games are fun. Nice outdoor seating area as well.

A group of my friends and I went in around 9:30 on a Saturday and the wait for pool tables was two hours so if you want to get one definitely go early. Fun place to drink and chill though.

The old man that has white hair is so mean and disrespectful. We go there around 2 times every single week and whenever he sees us there he always does something stupid and disrespects us. We went there today and he was there and he came directly and asked us for our ID’S my wife showed him her id and i had mine as a picture in my phone but he refused to take a look at it and didn’t let me in even though both of us are mature and in our 30s.. PLUS we don’t drink we just go there to play pool table so there’s no point of asking for our ID’S. The owner has to talk to him about his altitude with customers because no one is going to go there if he treats people like this. Very disappointed..

Went there on a Friday night for pool and drinks. The drunks were good, but we were told an hour to an hour and a half wait on a pool table. We left after 2 hours with an ETA of 45 minutes. We got the nachos and they were honestly some of the worst Ive had.

Great place to meet after work, throw some darts it shoot pool. Had a margherita pizza and an order of cheese curds. Came out quick and very tasty. The waitstaff is very friendly and attentive. Will come back again.

Always good times, I can avoid this place on weekends cause it gets so busy and you cant even enjoy playing billiards 🎱 cause the space between each table not good enough when there is a lot of people around, overall it is nice place

01/20/24 got on the 2 hour queue for a table, annoying, but that’s okay it was a Saturday. Confirmation text said “rude comments remove you from list!” 2 1/2 hrs later with no message we went to check. 2 open tables, and the guy working the counter didn’t have me in his list. I showed the confirmation, and all messages dating back to October. I made no such comments. He insisted that I, or somebody did. After accusing me of yelling at him (loud bar, I need to communicate) he did get us a table. TL;DR expect long waits, and terrible service, but a pretty good time if you ever get in.

I brought my two younger cousins to have a good time. We received our table and began to play. Our waitress never came to our table. No one stopped and explained anything, nothing. Everyone around us was being served food and drinks. I went to the counter and asked about my server, the young guy said he would tell her. An hour and half goes by, no drinks no food. This is unacceptable. Everyone was being served but us. So I decided to leave. I mentioned the issue and they apologized and said I could have walked over to the bar. She offered me a free drink but I was on my way out the door. This is poor service and I won’t ever be back.

Hey there! Just wanted to share something interesting that happened last night. I went out on my own and ended up having a bit too much to drink. Luckily, there was this amazing bouncer named Lola who took care of me. I just wanted to express my gratitude and say a big thank you to her. Thanks to her, I made it home safely.

I dont like that they dont have menus and you have to scan a QR code to retrieve the menu. Technology is great but this was an inconvenience being we couldnt get good reception at the pool table we were at. We didnt end up ordering any food because of it.Otherwise, the place it decent, prices on drinks and the table are reasonable.

I was sat at a table for 25 minutes and no one came to take our order... The guy at the pool rental took was gone for 20 minutes... We waited at the pool rental for 20 minutes to just not even get a response and got a note pad to Wright our name down to rent a pool table. Went to bar to sit waited 25 min and no one came to give us service so we left thanks guys wasted 45 min and another 30 min just to come see the place

We have been going there for trivia night for over a year. Great place but last night something was wrong. We had less points at the end than we had at half time. How is that possible? Ela our server was great as are Makenzie 1 and Makenzie 2. They are usually short staffed so expect some delay in food and service but don’t blame the servers. They are great!!!

They refill their top shelf liquor bottles with bottom shelf liquor , I know what my drink is supposed to taste like on the rocks and it was not it …. When I confronted them about it the denied it and took the bottle to the back when I said I was calling in them, you responded to my review so I’m going to respond to yours , …. Of course you’re going to deny it , I’ll give you a hint casa migos tequila , you should know who this is now …. If you don’t know who it is you’re untruthful …. That’s all my group and I drink we know what it taste like , funny thing is when we mentioned we Are calling the state you guys took the bottlesOff the shelve

This was our first time here and we will come back. The pool hall is clean and the tables look well maintained. My wife and daughter split nachos, and I had some buffalo chicken sliders. Everything was excellent. Even though they only had 2 servers they provided excellent and attentive service. I highly recommend.

This is the most wonderful pool hall Ive ever been too. The tables are fantastic, The felt is something special, the sticks are all straight the pizza (got the BBQ chicken) was phenomenal. Overall much nicer warmer and more relaxed vibes than a bar. The music was better too. Will absolutely be going again (already have lol). The staff were all very kind, and the rate was similar to other pool halls in the area. Absolutely wonderful place.

Here on a Thursday night. I’ve been waiting for over 45 minutes for a server to put a food order in. I asked for her help twice and she blew me off. Honestly it’s not her fault. The whole place had one server running around and it’s simply not enough. Bad service.

Very nice bar! People were line dancing, playing pool, beer pong, drinking and eating! A great spot for young-middle aged adults. Only 1 thing: extremely short staffed. Not a great thing to hear when the waitress is struggling maintaining front and back of house and taking a long time to get food/check.

Beautiful spot. Waited for 3 hours for a pool table. They had many open, but the pool table manager never called us,and we sat right in front of the pool table area. Bartenders were lovely,drinks were amazing. We did feel out of place because some Caucasian people were too comfortable with using the N-word as a racial slur. Club seemed cool. Didnt see food options anywhere. Pretty place inside.

Review №38

This place is extremely unorganized. Tried to order food the bartender rudly told me they werent serving food and walked away without even taking my drink order. My friends later that night were able to get food from someone else. No servers so you have to go to the bar for drinks and come back to the bar to pick up your food when you think it may be ready. Very small bar for such a huge place. They forced me to check my coat even though you can smoke on the patio... Im not aloud to bring my coat. But if you walk in through the back door you dont have to check your coat. So I grabbed my coat and walked around the block so I could go to the patio with a coat. Bathrooms were disgusting. I can understand being understaffed but I didnt see a manager anywhere trying to help. Just horrible customer service. And management that doesnt care.

Went to MSB wanting to eat pizza and play pool. The teenager at the front desk took our phone number to put us the waiting list. I told him we were going to get some food at wait an all he said was Ok and went back to talking to his friends. We sat ourselves and waited for service but nothing after 15 minutes so we left.The place looked clean even though our table was wobbly. Nice environment to play pool. So-so customer service.

I like that it has a variety of options (dance floor, sit down, outside, tables, and a little private seating section). so theres a wide variety and good amount of bathrooms. just each section isnt anything crazy. like the dance floor / music is average type of deal. so if you want a fun night and want variety- this is your place. if youre looking for something to wow you, not it

Was told we were going to wait 1 hour and the wait ended up being 2.5 hours. Its a fun place, with actually pretty decent drink prices, but get your reservation timing under control. There are other billiards spots that have better food and cheaper drinks, go here if you like the atmosphere.

Review №54

I dont really have any issue with this place, Ive been going here for years. The one star is for this one waitress who gives us problems. Shes heavier set, long curly-ish black hair, and im not gonna lie, very pretty. I think her name is Maria if Im not mistaking. So me and my friends go here regularly to play pool. The staff is usually cool with us splitting the bill. Every time she rings us up, she gives us attitude about splitting our tab. Last time was the last straw. We asked to split up the bill, and she has the nerve say Im not splitting up the bill, you guys can Venmo each other, then gives us this smug look. I see if she said Hey we arent able to do that sorry, but she flat out told us Im not doing it. So I work in the corporate business, and if I ever said something like that to a client, I would be out the door real quick. That is unacceptable customer service. Other employees have split up our bill without hesitation. Like I said, I have no issues with this place, but that server needs to be let go if she continues to treat guests like that. I didnt want to give a one star because in all fairness, its not necessarily the establishment, its the situation with a particular employee.

Review №55

The worst service Ive ever experienced, took 20min to order a drink on a Monday, as well as there being a wait list for tables but 4 tables sitting open because no one is paying attention to theyre job. The only reason people come here is because its the only place open until 2am during the week.

Ky
Review №56

Low rating is due to the fact that their bar tenders are slow and they normally dont have enough staff. Youll see long drink lines any day on the weekend which is ridiculous as this owner could double his money with more drinks sold with even two more bartenders. Also they are expensive, plan on paying $8-12 for anything besides beer.

So guess if you’re Arab, or middle eastern, you don’t have to check you coat. If you’re lighter guess checking your coat is optional. Be more transparent about your perogative if you’re gonna pander to the foreign money. Reach out to me if you wanna debate this!

Great place but disgusting service. I asked for water to one of the waitress first who never returned back, then i asked another waitress and i appreciate that she did bring water pretty quickly but didnt even said a word to me as if i forced her to bring me a bloody glass of water. Then i left after paying for pool table and never got my id back and came after travelling 10 miles and asked for my id and the same waitress gave me my id when i asked for. All are just working for tips there. Just pissed off my evening.

I wouldve gave 0 stars if I could. I liked the vibes of the place when i came in and it was coming in to celebrate my anniversary with my husband when the Bartender ruined the whole night for us. She was SOOO DRUNK & kept making very rude comments that we decided to just leave ! I Asked to speak to the manager and he took his workers side instead of the customers...? would never recommend this place with its horrible customer service! Strongly disappointed!!

Review №66

Busy establishment on the weekend and is well staffed. Reserve a pool table is nice because you will know about how long the wait is. Drinks are average price and they offer paid reserved seating and bottle service if thats your thing. The food is fresh and abundant for the money. The theres a great rotating Dj so music has some variance qualities if you go weekend after weekend. Check them out for yourself.

Review №67

Not very friendly. Server was slightly rude. She tried to get us to move out the booth we were sitting in. She assumed we werent spending money, but we were running a tab. After waiting for our food (that we had to pick up from the bar ourselves) the server didnt ask to refill drinks and she seemed like she was under the influence of drugs. The others staff and servers were just as complacent. Two thumbs down. 👎 👎

Our local club uses Mainstreet for our local get-togethers every Wednesday night. Its mutually beneficial since we need lots of table space and seating, and they need customers on a typically slow weeknight. The management has been very accommodating and helpful. The waitresses are very attentive and take the BEST care of us. The establishment is clean and comfortable. We could not ask for more.

I was treated very badly by the waiters and the manager that old man I asked for water they did not bring me which I would’ve left a tip for that the waiters tells me go to bar while I’m playing pool if the owner see this message if you want put your phone I will call and explain because actually I been coming there and buying and spending good amount of money and leave tips but after seeing this I don’t feel like coming anymore and having those people work for you the business gonna lose customers

Awesome place for a chill night out! They got good quality pool tables, ping pong, darts and a dance floor with a couple of bars. Patio in the summer! Prices are a tad over average but its a good place in downtown Rochester. Service can be really slow at times. Open 5pm-2am daily!

We came in on a Saturday and put our name on the list for a pool table. Posted price was $12/hr per table for friday and Saturday. We were told there would be about an hour wait based on the reservations and current list and that the guy would come find us and let us know when the table was ready. We checked after an hour and the list seemed to have been rearranged. We had fun playing darts and got plenty of drink service in the meantime but after 2 hours we left without getting a table. The vibe was energetic. There is a dance floor and additional bar in the back bar. The place was clean. The drink service was prompt and friendly. The bathrooms were nice and clean(later there was an attendant dispensing soap and towels.)

Pretty homey place. Decent pool tables. I go here some Sundays outta the month. ONLY complaint is the food is very hit or miss. Pizza here is pretty consistent but everything else really is a gamble on quality at the prices you pay. Kevin the cook makes good food. Not having Kevin quality food all the time only thing stopping me from 5 stars.Never been here for the club scene though.

Review №75

When we first arrived the place looked awesome and a it felt like I could come back many many times, all that changed when losing time drew closer, the way we were treated to get out of the place by the security team was abominable, there were a couple of kids waiting in the lobby for their Uber and security was on them to get out and wait outside in a very nasty and agresive way. Never been treated like that before, not ever going back to that place.

Review №81

Pretty cheesy. Were there for a 40th birthday party. Their systems went down at 1 AM and our entire party was basically captive for over 50 minutes while we tried to pay cash and leave because of THEIR systems. Finally talked to someone about how we had to go and the person was condescending and said we had to wait because it wasnt their fault either. Gave them more than enough cash to pay the bill and said I wasnt impressed with their customer service skills and was told to f myself. I have worked in the service industry before and I understand things happen but at some point you realize you cant keep people captive because of your systems and you cut your losses instead of acting like the computer problem is a shared responsibility.

A fight almost each weekend, unclean bathrooms, and the music is pretty much a buzz kill at times. The times weve been there, the DJ wouldnt know how to transition from one song to another well enough, it would leave a lot of people just looking around waiting for a beat to kick in. Food is pretty decent, and the bar tenders are amazing, though hard to get a hold of from both bars.

Place has been remodeled and hodated in the last year or two. Looks nice. Has a lot to keep you entertained while getting a drink or food. Pool, ping ping , outside patio with big sit around fireplace. And dance floor with bar on two sides. Has a lot to offer. Also new years there was fun

My friends and I went here once for what was suppose to be a fun night out. What I got was the worse customer service I have ever recieved and crappy drinks for ridiculous prices.

If you want to have a good time, Id advised to steer clear of Main Street.

Review №91

There is nothing upscale about this establishment. The staff at this place is unable to communicate with paying customers in a respectful and professional manner. I am simply disgusted by the way I have been treated by the staff on two separate occasions.I will find the good in any situation, in this case I basically think the owner of Main Street billiards of downtown Rochester Hills needs to evaluate his staff and set higher standards. If I was the owner, I would be so ashamed of how my staff is treating customers.This is my first and last negative review I will ever take time to write.

Quality pool tables (despite their age) food and drinks! Could easily spend hours enjoying the company of friends here. The only thing keeping me from a 5-star review is the crowd that is attracted on the weekends. To an extent this is out of the businesses control, but, I would like to enjoy my night out in a place I don’t have to worry about a fight breaking out. Despite that, Mainstreet has a great dynamic with their offerings!

The DJ plays good music, but some of the bartenders serve strong drinks, and others kind of low ball you. I am sure it is from bad tips from college crowd. The pool here is good and its nice that they have a lot of different areas for you to go to depending on your mood.

Main Street is mostly a lively atmosphere situated in a great downtown location also surrounded by many others places of interest. A fun place to enjoy with friends. Most active and popping during the evening hours, and especially on the weekends. One half is a vibing dance club of sorts, the other is a billiards/ game area. Food, drinks, outdoor bonfire area- pretty solid.

I always go to this place to hang out with my husband. Last time I went there with my family friends to play pool. Everything is good except the service. Server named Maria was so rude, we asked for a cup of water but i got that after 20 minutes. Even we were in the first row, she gave us water after collecting the trashes. She was so horrible. After we were done she charged us 20 percent for 50 dollar total. I too worked in a restaurant and i do hope for tips but we never used to charge customers in the bills and definitely we should and we would tip the server but what she did was literally terrible.

Review №104

If I could give a negative rating I would. Went there after work with a friend to play ping pong and have fun and my night was HORRIBLE. First off, we ordered drinks, he ordered gin and I ordered water.... WATER.... It took OVER 20 minuets for me to get my water. This was a Sunday around 7, they were not busy what so ever. Then a waitress accuses me of stealing her makeup (which was messily spread all over the womens bathroom sink) She at first asks if I had see any make up.. Well of COURSE I did, it was all over the place, but did I take any.. NOPE.Through out the night, she kept coming to our table, which at one point I was in the middle of dumping my purse out to look for eye drops (my allergies were killing me) so right then she couldve seen I did not have her make up. Even longer story short she called the cops and lied saying they had me on camera... (yeah inside the womens bathroom) stealing her used makeup. The cops came and my ride ended up having a suspended license unbeknownst to him and was taken away. Leaving me out in the rain. When I went back inside to wait for my ride, I let the waitress know that I was indeed searched and nothing was found. So then instead of saying sorry and trying to rectify the situation, they locked me out in the cold rain.... HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE.... I hate to put race into it, but I was the ONLY black woman in the building, not the only woman ( after they tried telling me i was the only woman in the building, just another lie), but the only melaniated one.

This place is only OK. Really my least favorite place in Rochester. They do have nice billiards tables, but dont bother on a Friday or Saturday night when they go into top 40 dance club mode (expect to pay cover). There is a full dance floor in the back and they have a nice patio, but it pulls a rough and mostly young/college crowd on the weekends. The food is only OK. The drinks are usually strong, but not well crafted unless you just want to get toasted.

Waited for 45 minutes for a table and then the first opening was given to a party who just walked in but knew somebody. The front desk didnt really care so we left.. spend your money elsewhere in downtown Rochester, theres alot of great places who actually care about customers

Poor service. Still tipped $30 on a $150 tab and the waitress belittled my friends and I. I will not return. Drinks are not mixed well too. Dirty martini was all vermouth. Nice place. Gross service.

Wish I could give less than a quarter star. Went in and was in there for an hour and only saw our waitress once to order drinks. Wasn’t even the one that delivered our drinks. Then an hour later got fed up because we waited an hour just to order food. What a joke

Drinks are okay, nothing special. Typical bar food. Gets very loud and crowded after 10. Lots of meatheads and rude people -- Whenever Ive come here Ive never not seen a fight break out, always on the dance floor.

Honestly I would maybe be open to tryng it again but overall it was not the best experience..... the music and vibes were good!Im just not someone who is going to sign up to play pool and pay $12 for an hour.... I am more of a hole in the wall bar that you play with quarters lolAnd to be honest I understand the night was crazy for the staff there but they ended up losing my card for a good 15-20mins tried giving me someone elses, didnt have an actual itemized receipt in the end and so Im pretty sure I paid for another persons tab... had I been the staff in that situation I wouldve handled it a little more gracefully. But I paid and left without a disagreement, I was just ready to go at that point....

If you ever wandered what it would be like to go to a club in North Korea, go here. The bouncers are out of control and very rude. I usually have a lot of faith in people but not here. You honestly cannot have any fun there unless you like hanging out at a library or having no fun at all. Bouncers are like the RA’s of Bars, sorry to anyone who goes here.

I have gone there on and off the past couple of years. Try to have a good time, and just goes south every time. The serivce, pricing, and people that are attracted here are rude. Single guy trying to have fun, dance etc, and just get pushed off. Unless you are with a group of friends not worth coming here. Try to be nice and meet others and get pushed off every time.

Nice location. Good billiards, about 8 tables. Darts and ping pong. Plenty of tvs and a nice bar. $10 to $12 and hour for pool depending on weekend or not, reasonable prices. Food is alright. Nachos could use some work with the cheese, not melted enough and the chicken and beef on the nachos dry. Wings alright too, just make sure they dont come out cold. Had a good time overall.

I will never come to this establishment again. After many years of patronage, I had a very disappointing experience here. A friend who I was there with was approached and accused of stealing, saying She was on film stealing my make up out the bathroom(no cameras in a bathroom). And the police stopped me, harassed my friend and there was a huge ordeal after. After speaking to the police, they say that a false report was made, and there will be a job lost, and a lawsuit filed.

Free pool if your tab is greater than pool tab is nice. Pool tables are pretty good. The food menu is somewhat limited as well as overpriced. Draft beers on multiple occasions taste skunky. I enjoy Main Street, but they need to do a bit more to increase business on week nights.

Main Street Billiards was a great stop on a Saturday night of fun! We got there around 7PM and was able to get a pool table within 5 minutes. By the time we left at 9PM, we heard quoted times of a 2 hour wait or more - so, show up early!

Review №126

If youre into the club scene, this may be the place to check out. Im not really into that type of stuff so when I go here with a group of people, I am a bit out of my element. On one side is a dance floor with crazy loud music and people dancing like there is no tomorrow. On the other side, there are pool tables, ping pong tables and also dart boards, as well as big tvs and tables. This side is a little bit more normal for me. I feel like they need to do a better job at getting drinks to people as if you want to get one and go up to the bar, it will take 10-20 minutes to get it and get back to the people you are with. It almost seems like they should set up a sub bar that serves just beer or something like that so some people could go to that bar and not overwhelm the main bar. The inside seems pretty nice and updated so thats nice. One thing that always kills me is that guys have to pay a cover charge after a certain time to get in. I never really understood why just guys need to pay it but is just kind of funny to think that you pay to get in, are suggested to tip the person working in the coat room, have a bathroom attendant (at least in the mens room) who is working for tips, have bar priced drinks and food and need to tip on top of all of that. If youre going, just be ready to make it rain money.

Worst place ever. I was there on Sunday I left my ID there so I can get a Pool table then when I was leaving I asked for my ID back and the cashier told me oh I dont have it. Basically he gave my ID to someone else with out checking. Then I told him I want see the manager, after 20 minutes one off the security guy came out and act like a manager and keep telling me that he is the boss there. So I explained to him what happens and he respond was little oh I lost your ID what you want me do about it. Hmmmm Thats how we run business (what you want me do about it)

What an absolute piece of garbage place. Ive been there a few times now and the entire staff is rude every time. And there drinks are always way overpriced. Last night was the last time ill ever even try to go there. As soon as we walked in some old bouncer with an awful attitude carded my friends and I which is no big deal without the attitude. He then told me I couldnt wear my knit cap inside. When I asked why he told me that it was because it looked tacky. This was coming from the man who was wearing a camo ball cap. After getting past that lug we continued walking in only to decide to leave since no one was offering any service.

I used to go to Main Street Billiards once every few weeks, but I had a terrible experience tonight and will not be returning again. I called ahead to see if there would be cover charge, the woman on the phone told me they would not start charging cover until 9PM. My friends and I arrived at 8:55PM but were not allowed in without paying cover charge. The doorman pulled the Bar Time excuse and insisted that it was past 9 by their clock. The woman on the phone told me 9PM, not whatever we deem is 9PM by bar time. We showed him our phones time but he insisted in spite of all evidence to the contrary that it was past 9 and to go to another bar if we didnt like it. So we did. I called to speak to a manager, got a two second pause from the person on the other line until they said Cover is $10. before promptly hanging up. I would have been happy to pay the charge if it was past 9, but the fact of the matter is that it wasnt. I would have spent more than $10 in drinks and food there tonight, but they will never see another cent from my friends and I again. Extremely poor treatment; they obviously dont care about their customers.

The bouncer said that we have to leave because we are associated with him. We politely said that we dont know him and he wouldnt listen, so we agreed to leave and go somewhere elae. Not only were the bouncers very rude, they pushed my girlfriend causing her to fall down and break her phone. We will not be going back to that establishment ever again.
