Our award-winning team have a wealth of experience and really know their stuff when it comes to pool tables, so please don't hesitate to ask when you have questions.
English Pool Tables
We pride ourselves in hand picking only the finest quality pool tables from the world-leading manufacturers. Our selection of English pool tables are all made in the UK by family-owned companies who employ expert craftsmen that have been building professional pool tables for generations. They not only make classic style tables but have designed a selection of more contemporary, sleek designs for the modern home.
Our full-size English pool tables have become a firm favourite amongst our customers, developing into one of our highest-selling items. They’re generally smaller than American tables, coming in 6 and 7ft sizes, with smaller-sized balls as well. Perfect for the home, games rooms, hospitality and commercial venues, an English pool table is an absolute must-have for classic British entertainment.
Slate Bed Pool Tables
One thing you can be sure of when purchasing through us is that we exclusively deal with slate bed pool tables that are designed for both home games room and commercial use. We have a team of experts with a vast knowledge of regulation English pool tables measuring at both 6ft for a tighter space, or competition size 7ft. We are also a specialist in official sized 8 ball pool tables that are endorsed by the World 8 Ball Pool Federation and full sized American 9 ball pool tables.
The quality of slate bed pool tables is much higher than that of wood bed tables, which is why we tend to encourage slate bed purchase, especially for those that plan on playing pool for years to come. Our slate bed tables have been meticulously tested to ensure the smoothest surface is achieved and the highest standard of gameplay can be played.
Pool Dining Tables
For those who are looking for a multipurpose option, we have a huge selection of tables that are both dining tables and pool tables. Our pool dining tables are dual use tables, and the perfect solution for making use of that unused dining room or any additional space in open plan style kitchens, which are becoming more and more popular. Pool dining tables are a great option for those that struggling to find the right space for an average pool table, or for those looking to bring spectacle to their next dinner party.
You would never know that these elegant pool tables can convert into a dining table, simply by placing the two-piece tops on the top frame of the table, making a perfect surface for family dining. We also offer the unique rollover dining table, a spinning middle segment, which is our most simple yet spectacular pool dining table.
American Pool Tables
American pool tables have become the go-to tables for homes looking to get involved in the US game, and we are exclusive UK agents for top US brands Brunswick and Diamond 9 ball pool tables. These are the US pool tables that you will find in any respected American pool hall not only in the UK, but across the globe. Coming in 7ft, 8ft and 9ft, these larger tables make for a much faster game than English pool which is more appealing to families and groups of people wanting to play, as the games are typically much shorter.
Billiard tables make a great centrepiece in any games room, due to their bigger size, and the quick pace of the game naturally draws in a lot of excitement and exhilaration. Due to their size, however, these tables do need a little more space than English pool tables. If you’re unsure whether a billiard table will fit in your space, use this size chart to give you an idea.
Pool Table Sizes
Our range covers a simply enormous range of pool table sizes, meaning that we have a pool table for every conceivable space. From smaller 6ft tables, all the way up to our range of incredible 12 ft pool tables. In total, we offer the following sizes as standard:
There are also some in-between sizes which are specific to certain manufacturers, like 7.2 ft tables on certain Billiards Montfort models. If you’re uncertain about which pool table size is correct for your home or venue, reach out to one of our friendly members of staff who will be happy to advise you on how to measure the space and make an informed choice.

From the Bordeaux, Brittany, Northern Portugal, and Tuscany, they work exclusively with us using the finest woods, materials and techniques. This enables us to offer our customers an entertaining gaming centrepiece for their homes, as well as a show stopping piece of furniture.
