Overview
From the transparent acrylic staircase to the 54 foot glass bar this 16,000 square foot pool hall/bar/restaurant/club looks every bit of the $1.5 million spent on its renovation. Unfortunately a lot of money was spent on late night TV ads in the greater New York area so you may end up waiting in line behind a guy with enough wax in his hair to make a candle.
Why You Should Go
- A good place to take friends from out of state. They'll think it looks the part of a chic New York pool hall (if you're a local it looks like it belongs in LA.)
- Despite the trendy pretensions Slate can be reasonably priced. Stop by for lunch and the special is $7 including free pool.
What You Should Know
- If you squint just right you can see that the huge sem-transparent staircase is in the shape of a pool triange
- Somewhat surprisingly, the food is reasonably priced and tasty. The $4 fries or the $9 burger or tuna tacos are good snack options while you shoot.
