About Snookers:

The Snookers you know today as Rhode Island’s best sports bar is the big brother of the original pool hall with humble beginnings established in 1989 by Stephen & Regina Goulding in the Jewelry District of Providence, RI. That original pool hall with 24 pool tables, a game room, and a snack bar transformed over the years becoming a go-to Providence bar and New England’s premier destination for pool players. However, in 2009, Snookers closed its doors on Clifford Street and moved to its present home at 53 Ashburton Street, about a mile and a half away. 

The transformation of the new location from the “Damiano Brothers Welding Company” to what we recognize as Snookers today was a dramatic transformation. The interior is an eclectic mix of art, sports, signage, movie memorabilia, and industrial artifacts from the building’s previous life. Come on in and take a look around. You’ll find some fun history from some of your favorite Rhode Island “institutions” like Rocky Point Amusement Park and Benny’s. You’ll also find two pool rooms with 15 professional quality pool tables including the Tournament Room which is the official home of the New England Pool and Billiards Hall of Fame, making Snookers the headquarters for New England’s billiard enthusiasts. In addition to pool, Snookers features a large 30 plus seat bar boasting over 20 draught beers, a spacious dining room, seasonal beer garden, outdoor patio, 60 HD TVs always showing any and all sports action from around the world, a sound system that makes watching and rooting on your favorite team feel like an in stadium event, and games like shuffleboard, foosball, darts and various video games and board games all of which lends to a fun-filled atmosphere for people of all ages to enjoy.

In January of 2023, long-time General Manager, Paul Troxell, and his wife, Erin, bought Snookers.  While Stephen and Regina enjoy retirement, Paul and Erin are excited to carry on the legacy that was created over the last 34 years.
