“Unrivaled sports bar in Rhode Island”
Snookers was established in 1989 in Providence’s jewelry district on the corner of Chestnut and Clifford Street in a second floor loft. The original Snookers was a pool hall with 20 pool tables, a game room and a snack bar serving concession type snacks and soft drinks. Eventually we added a small kitchen serving sandwiches and in 1992 gained a liquor license and installed our first bar. In 1994, Snookers transformed the game room into “The Green Room”, which hosted many upstart live bands and DJs as well as name acts. It became a hot spot for entertainment in the city for many years. Snookers has been a location of choice for motion picture films and has hosted many celebrities such as Ben Stiller, Matt Dillon, Orlando Bloom, Conan O’Brian, and Mo Vaughn to name a few. In 2009 Snookers closed its doors on Clifford Street and moved to its present home at 53 Ashburton Street, about a mile and a half away. The transformation of the building from the “Damiano Brothers Welding Company” to Snookers' beautiful new facility is dramatic. The interior is an eclectic mix of artwork, signage, movie memorabilia, and industrial artifacts from its previous life. The addition of 40 plus flat screens creates a sports bar scene unrivaled in RI. Fifteen professional quality pool tables, along with the official home of the New England Pool and Billiards Hall of Fame, make Snookers ground zero for the pool enthusiasts in N.E. Two full bars, a dining room and outdoor patio lend themselves to a hip, fun-filled atmosphere. Our kitchen serves a wide variety of generous portion dishes at very reasonable prices. We have private rooms that accommodate parties of 10 to 275 people, with a catering menu to satisfy any need. Snookers is a great place to meet friends, entertain guests, or just hang out enjoying craft beers, great food, and good times.
