Kolby’s Restaurant Bar and Billiards

This place is really cool and honestly if I’m going to play pool this is where I want to go. I was walking around the shopping center with a friend after going to body renu to work out the first time I stumbled into this place and discovered a pool hall jampacked with pool tables. My first impression from the outside I thought that maybe it was just a little pool place with three or four tables but as they say on the golf course it opens up in there. This is a nice hall it’s clean and classy and the owners are great to hang out with and shoot some pool with, it’s a class act and the bar is really nice as well. I believe it’s Monday nights that they have pool tournaments as well. My dad was a pool hustler and considered the second best pool hustler in the state of Texas in the 50s and played fast Eddie Phelson, so I grew up around pool tables and saw some great halls like Gilly’s in Pasadena Texas, so I am pretty picky and I will say that the greens are clean, the sticks or straight, cues are solid but always remember don’t bet money with a guy who’s got his own stick LOL

Best pool hall I’ve ever been to. Fantastic tables, quality house cues, and friendly competition make this a pool players dream. They have huge tournaments here as well that add to the spice of competition!

If you are in Keizer I would recommend stopping by kolby’s! They have great food, drinks, and service! The vibrant atmosphere will definitely bring me back!

absolute garbage…
we arrived just past 5:30
we ordered by 5:50
we waited until 7:30 before we got our food and we didnt even get all of it
so instead of waiting for them to bring it to us we had it boxed up to go.
when we got home it was the wrong freaking order
i have never been anywhere with a kitchen staff as bad as this
if you value your time and money do not
i repeat
do not consider this place whatsoever
i honestly wish there was a star rating lower than one

This place is great I’ve been in restaurants with billiards all over the country and this is one of the nicest. The staff are pros and the food is outrageously good. Get funky with the karaōke on Friday and Saturday or play on one of their beautiful Brunswick tables there’s even a nine footer. I’ll see you there, if you can find me and challenge me to a game and beat me I’ll give you a CW Irwin T-​shirt

Kolby’s has hosted a couple of important parties for our large group, both featuring the EPIC ’55 BAND. Both events were a home run! The music was outstanding, and the food was really bueno and affordable. This place is huge, and very clean with an attentive staff. Giant bar and lotsa pool tables ~ classy without pretense. Very relaxed and not too loud. I like their Big Salad. We’ll be back. Thx! Jake

My recent visit, which was my first visit, to Kolby’s was very disappointing. The service was very slow and not as welcoming as I would like. Also, the place is full of tall, barstool like tables. I think this is an ego thing for some people or something. Its ok to have a few of these, but the place is full of them. One of the other reasons I dislike this type of seating, as it does not allow me to invite a friend, that I have, that uses a wheelchair. I think this type of tall seating, also adds the unwelcome feeling I experienced. The food itself was decent, not earth shattering, but still decent.
In all, I won’t be back to Kolbys and I certainly can’t recommend it either.
Needs improved service and a much needed change in seating.

I was disappointed.
I drive by Kolby’s pretty much daily… though the sign is a bit distracting, and I wasn’t quite sure what it said for a while. Maybe I’m just stupid, but it is a really kind of abstract, calligraphy type thing.
Anywhoo, I stopped in here on a Sunday night. The place has an awesome décor, I really give it points for that. Very stylish, good lighting, TV’s in appropriate places. Lots of pool tables and high chairs/​tables, though a considerable dearth of standard-​level seating. If that’s what you’re looking for, look elsewhere, says Kolby’s.
So I get up to the bar. Have a seat. Glance at a menu, but I’m really just looking for a beer and a place to read.
So I wait. And wait. About ten minutes goes by. I see the bartender at the far end of the bar, kibitzing with some people who all look like they’re having a great time. Another employee comes to the cash register directly in front of me, rings something up, leaves. Does it again. The bartender comes to my cash register, rings something up, leaves.
Not a word to me. I have my book down, am looking at them, looking around, looking back at the kitchen. Nothing.
I set a time on my watch… if no one even acknowledges my presence, I would leave.
With one minute to spare, the bartender asks if I’ve been helped. I say no, and I get a beer soon after that. The next one was not quite so long in coming, but I had had enough by then. No engaging in any kind of even minor conversation, no question of whether I wanted to order food or not. Just… nothing.
The place was not busy. Not by a long shot. I may not have wanted to have speeches, but I certainly wanted to feel like an appreciated customer.
I’ll stick to other locations. Plus, the menu prices looked a little high. But maybe not… I was in a foul mood when I looked over the menu a second time.

Top Notch Restaurant! Like I have heard from others… you wouldnt look at this place and think that a pool hall would have amazing food. The place looks great, has a great atmosphere and is very clean. Lots of pool tables, karaōke sometimes, and great food all the time! Ive had a couple meals here and they have a nice beer selection. The food is top notch! Friendly people and great atmosphere… I will be coming here alot more often!

I continue to be impressed by this establishment. Not only is the food fabulous, the people are friendly (they took the time to know me by name), and the billiard tables are competition quality and very nicely maintained.
Just as Chuck B., I too was there on opening day and discovered some of the same issues he describes. Now they have worked out the kinks, settled in, found their niche, and provide excellent service. It is a great place to eat whether or not you like billiards. While you can get the standard «pub fare» if you choose, you also have the option of fine dining entrees as well.

Loved it! There corn chowder and Prime Rib was to die for!
