Ben, a young fellow living and working in Ferguson, and I, Chelsea, have been dating in St. Louis for over a year. Aware that the city offers limited activities for people our age, we aim to highlight the very bests of the 314. Why? Because we go out and find it. Ben can't get lost. And I can't pass up a good adventure.

Corner Pocket
There is a certain feeling of pure happiness I get when I stand at a pool table. Lining up and planning every shot, making sure each angle is perfect. To be honest, I don't think there is any place I would rather rack up than the tables of Cue and Cushion.
Located in Overland at 2425 Woodson Road, Cue and Cushion offers seventeen pool tables including a 5 x 10 snooker table and three-cushion tables. On top of that, Cue and Cushion also sells pool tables and all of your other billiard needs. I for one, purchased my beloved cue from them and it has not let me down a bit.
The selling points for me, however, were the price and hours. General price is only $3.60 an hour, but they have student rates, military discounts, early bird specials and even special discounts for Facebook and Myspace friends. Sunday through Thursday, Cue and Cushion is open from 10:00 am until 1:00 am. On Friday and Saturday they stay open until 3:00 am!
There are also snacks and vending available along with a few arcade games and a well stocked Jukebox. The only possible thing I can think of that would turn people away is the fact that smoking is still allowed inside. I, personally, have no problem with that because I like the smokey air while I play, it feels very appropriate, but some people cannot stand cigarette smoke.
The establishment is family owned and every time I walk in I always feel welcome and right at home. If you find yourself with an empty evening or a stressful day, make your way to Cue and Cushion and see why I have quite a lot of hours there and become a faithful patron like myself.
Stay cool St. Louis
