Círculo 99 Billar & Café Obrera

Open since 2003, this spacious pool hall on Eje Central serves cold beer on tap and by the bottle alongside alitas, pizzas, and nachos. Beyond the billiard tables, you'll find ping pong, board games while you wait for a table, and a regular lineup of live rock, stand-up comedy, and karaoke nights — Friday karaoke draws a crowd.

The space is big enough to accommodate groups, and the music is mostly rock with some reggaeton (staff will change it if you ask). Expect Monday promotions and weekly deals that make the beer and table time easier on the wallet.
