Editorial Review for Jillian's Billiards Club – by Eric Grossman
The Scene
A varied crowd descends upon Jillian's three levels to experience all kinds of sensory overload. The scene usually includes ollege students and middle-aged managers shooting pool and trendy 20-somethings surveying the scene at the bar. Black-clad cocktail waitresses, many of whom moonlight as models, do their best not to interfere with anyone's shot while delivering drinks to all corners of the establishment. When the Sox are playing across the street, expect larger crowds.
The Draw
Patrons looking for a full meal can duck into Tequila Rain, which is located on the ground floor. Fun, expensive entertainment options are spread out over three floors, including billiards (there are 55 tournament-quality pool tables) and bowling (in the futuristic Lucky Strike Lanes).

I recently decided go to Jillians it was on a Wednesday night, barley anyone there, My husband and I walked in pick a table close to the bar and we waited for over 1/2 hr. waitresses walked back & fourth and no one stopped to ask us if we needed help. Finally I walked over to the bar and ask if there will be a waitress to attend to the table and within 10 mins someone showed up, took our orders. My cheese burger bun was burnt beyond edible. it was black and hard. I showed this too the waitress and she laughed. I also ordered my burger well done and i came to the table, medium rare. rather than reheating the burger I requested buffalo tips and she told me they will not take the buger off the bill. We are sitting there watching the celtics game and do we see a m*use running around. I mention this to the waitress and she said "Welcome to Boston" as if M!ce and food are supposed to be acceptable. I will never again go there with the rude staff , bad service and discusting m!ce who run the place.
Pros: Location
Cons: everything else
