Great place! Enjoy taking the family to play a few games. Stress free and super great people. My children enjoy learning to play. Nice tables and cues. Comfortable amount of room to play. Wide array of drinks to choose from but non-alcoholic and alcohol section.

Played in a 9-ball chip tournament at Jerry O’s in Las Cruces, and honestly the pool room needs work. The lighting was very dim, the tables played slow, and a song I paid for on the jukebox was skipped because it was “too long.” If customers pay to play music, it should be respected. Better lighting, faster tables,…

Great place to come and play. Clean and great atmosphere. Reasonable price and there is a Bar. There is only 6 tables so I could see this place getting packed on a busy night. Would definitely come back again.

Played in a 9-ball chip tournament at Jerry O’s in Las Cruces, and honestly the pool room needs work. The lighting was very dim, the tables played slow, and a song I paid for on the jukebox was skipped because it was “too long.” If customers pay to play music, it should be respected. Better lighting, faster tables, and fair jukebox rules would make the room much better.

Response from the owner · 4 months ago

We're sorry you didn't enjoy yourself. When it comes to our cloth being too slow we use Simonis, yes it is a little dirty and is being replaced soon. With the Jukebox, we do not own it and the time limit on songs is at 10 minutes. We apologize for any inconvenience and are in the process of making things better for everyone that enjoys the game of pool.
