    Fantastic venue. One of the best I've seen. All tables are immaculate and has a great atmosphere there. Staff were really friendly and personable. I've been to a few Riley's over the years and this beats the others hands down. Only problem is it's a bit difficult to find and there aren't many parking spaces but don't let that put you off as there are many within a minutes walk.

    Good tables, good cues, great atmosphere and staff! Lisa is always friendly, all the staff here are great! It's the kinda place you can come and you'll know you'll have no trouble it's just chilled. Couldn't recommend enough! Sign up and come down for darts, english and American pool, snooker or just to watch the football, the atmosphere is great no matter what you do!

    Rileys is a, members only [join for free easily on line] establishment offering Snooker, pool and darts in a sports bar setting. The food offered was pretty basic in choice: nachos, burgers and pizzas but the burger was absolutely delicious. Seriously thick cut, what seemed like, dry cured high quality bacon cooked to perfection. Melted cheese, extremely fresh lettuce tomato and onion and a deliciously tasty burger. The nachos were covered in a fine chilli con carne but were maybe a little light on topping. My only negative is the sink area in the men's toilets is in desperate need of renovation. All in all pretty good.

    Been my snooker home for over 15 years. Lovely staff, relaxed environment, ace punters. Always feel at home as soon as you walk through the door.

  • 5/5 Peter R. 4 months ago on Google • 5 reviews
    A great club with brilliant staff! Got such a warm welcome from the staff and this wonderful club, who helped myself and a friend through the joining process. Derek in particular goes above and beyond to help and makes sure your glass is never half empty while you’re in the middle of a game.

    Really impressed with Rileys Chorlton. Well-looked after by Derek and the team. The snooker table I was on was spotless and cleaned only that day. Definitely will return

    Last night, I visited Riley's for the first time, and I had a great experience! The staff member, who I believe was named Derick, was incredibly friendly and informative when helping me with my membership. He certainly knows what he's doing and added a personalised touch with his sense of humour, making it a really great guest experience from the start!

  • 5/5 HomeCookGeek 1 year ago on Google
    In here most weekends, feels like family in here due the great staff, cant beat a good game of darts. Sometimes jump on pool and snooker. Best Riley's i've been too

  • 5/5 Mark J. 2 years ago on Google

    Not been here for years! Went back recently, for a game of snooker, with the missus, and got beat 4-2 Really nice they gave you a free membership for the first year, and on top if it, gave me a discount with my blue light card for NHS staff. Ordered 2 double chicken burgers with sweet fries And it was so nice and fresh!!. The snooker tables are really well looked after. The staff are so nice and pleasant.. 💯 recommended

  • 5/5 Sam L. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent venue. Hadn't been to Riley's for years but renewed my membership and went there last night with with a friend to hang out and catch up. All the staff were really helpful and friendly. The food was lovely (highly recommend the meat feast pizza!!) and the all round customer service was brilliant. Granted, there are limited parking spaces but the nearby streets provide spaces within a few hundred yards away so it's no big deal. Top marks all round and I'll definitely be back soon!!

  • 5/5 Jon S. 9 months ago on Google
    Staff were friendly, happy to change the channel on request. Tables are decent quality. New rewards system is quite a good deal for regulars.

  • 5/5 Simon B. 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic club, with a great atmosphere. Plenty of tables for pool and snooker and lots of dart boards too. Also a really nice big sports screen. The club is always clean and well presented. All the staff are brilliant, friendly and welcoming and consistently show excellent customer service.

  • 5/5 Ania A. 9 months ago on Google
    Friendly, respectful and helpful (as first visit). Good atmosphere, as 2 females we felt comfortable and had fun playing/learning to play pool, no pressure or intimidation from anyone, loads of tables available with own space to have a drink and chill, definitely plan to make it a monthly visit. Thanks Rileys 🙏

  • 5/5 Joshua P. 1 year ago on Google
    When I visit from Wales, I often go to Riley’s Chorlton. I can say the staff are great, and Callum is always there to help me out when needed with a smile on his face. The tables are always spotless and the place is always lively. Snooker or Pool, tables are spot on! Always a happy return. :)

  • 5/5 Daren B. 8 months ago on Google
    Excellent time playing billiards with my daughter and son. While I visit from Iraq and my daughter visits from Australia. Even managed to get into the private room thanks to my son. First time using competition balls. Thanks Derek.

  • 5/5 Katy 7 months ago on Google
    Such a lovely atmosphere and friendly people at Riley’s! Thank you for teaching us the ropes!! Special mention to Derrick and Callum! We will definitely be back to improve our pool (and learn from the best) !!

  • 5/5 Percy J. 7 months ago on Google
    Riddle me this: How can one building be so understated yet so fiercely vibrant? From the staffs relentless attentitivity to the ice cold pints of Amstel, it’s always positive vibes ahoy over at Riley’s. Bottoms up - let’s shoot some pool!

  • 5/5 Paul C. 2 years ago on Google
    Excellent place - great tables and the staff are very friendly too!

  • 3/5 stuart l. 2 years ago on Google
    Good vibe. Good note out. Little bit on the prices side.

  • 5/5 Leigh P. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Mariana L. 1 year ago on Google
    Great atmosphere to get some drinks and play some pool with friends. All the staff were lovely but Jessica deserves extra praising. She gave us a really good service and made me want to come back again! 🙂

  • 5/5 Fergel F. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent place to come and unwind, grab a drink and enjoy an evening of darts and snooker. Staff are fantastic

  • 5/5 David M. 1 year ago on Google
    Great snooker place. Friendly service. Good place to watch sport. Could really do with a bit of money being spent on upgrading the toilets though

  • 4/5 Mary R. C. 2 years ago on Google
    A nice atmosphere, good quality pool tables, professional and lovely staff. Lost one star because the wine selection was so bad. Only one white wine, Chardonnay. If I could have had my usual New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc it would have been a 5 star review 😉. Oh they do bar food too - pizzas and burgers etc. I didn't try any because they didn't have a vegan pizza listed, but the pizzas did look very good.

  • 4/5 Andrew S. 2 years ago on Google
    Can't complain... its clearly never been renovated and has the feel of an old social club but there's nothing wrong with that... it's cheap and the food is actually way higher quality than you would expect

  • 5/5 Craig F. 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic place to go great staff very friendly good beer good food would recommend anyone going there

  • 5/5 Steve T. 2 years ago on Google
    Friendly place with lots of snooker and pool tables, also fast food and a nice bar

  • 5/5 Mick C. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice pleasurable experience not to pricy and about right for the price Not to busy place kept clean and "Covid wiped" before the next customer uses the table Drinks are waiter service and brought to the table for you Staff helpful and courteous Be aware you need to be a member to use the club however membership is free and can be done online

  • 5/5 Andy D. 1 year ago on Google
    Although we travel up from Ashton near Wigan the 4 of us enjoy the night out having 3 hours of Snooker and drinks at very reasonable prices when split between us. Friendly staff and plenty of both snooker and pool tables as well as darts. If I could have one complaint albeit we've always managed to find a lucky spot, it would be the lack of parking spaces around the place.

  • 5/5 Christian F. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice sports bar, A little tucked away. Plenty of tables lots of darts boards and lots of tvs for football etc. We didnt eat but the food looks good. The people working Derrick a d Lisa were really helpful and also very friendly. Would come back

  • 5/5 Michael H. 1 year ago on Google
    Really lovely place with a good atmosphere, me and my friends all got food which was really tasty, full of flavour. And the staff are really friendly and make you feel at home ! Would come again

  • 5/5 Abigail H. 1 year ago on Google
    This place is a second home to me, I have been coming ever since I was 13 now 21 and they have had the exact same staff the entire time that take the time to get to know you. Not many businesses can say they have that low of a staff turnover says a lot about the businesses morals and environment. Derek, Callum, Lisa, Richard and Gemma are super lovely. I’ve been to the Riley’s in Essex and customer service doesn’t come close. Tables are great quality and maintained. Price is great as well! Only down side is they have coke cola not Pepsi.

  • 5/5 Shannon M. 1 year ago on Google
    Came to Rileys tonight with some friends, great atmosphere, great team of staff especially Gemma as she made great coversation and i was always served with a smile 😊 look forward to my next visit. Would 100% recommend to anyone who enjoys pool or darts

  • 5/5 Simon P. 1 year ago on Google
    I've been going to Rileys for many years, and always have a great time playing pool, and helping to organise comps, leagues etc, as well as socialising and having a few beers with mates. Richard and Gemma (Managers) always look after us and the customer service from Callum Bell, Derek and Lisa is superb. Thanks guys. Awesome club

  • 4/5 Darren S. 6 years ago on Google
    Plenty of pool and snooker tables and the 3 for 2 offer is a good price. Lots of TVs around showing sport. Only downside is barely any parking outside, so it's impossible to park at a busy time.

  • 5/5 sami j. 1 year ago on Google
    Really chilled out place to hang out with mates playing pool or watching the football and having few drinks. Staff are a good laugh. Always have a good banter With Callum and Derick, they always make ya feel welcome and do there best to accommodate even when super busy. Appreciate the new table service where you can just setup a table tab and settle up at the end. It’s just a grate place to play pool, (English preferred) but there is also American, snooker and Darts. Highly recommend a visit

  • 5/5 L B. 1 year ago on Google
    Went to Riley’s for the first time in a long time today, safe to say it was a brilliant experience! From start to finish, staff was amazing with how quickly they handled things, one name stood out in particular and that was a lad called Callum who served us with drinks, checked in on us after half an hour or so to see if we needed anymore and was very polite. I never write reviews but this one was well worth mentioning!

  • 5/5 Chris W. 1 year ago on Google
    Callum and Derek were amazing as per usual. Very welcoming and always kind and talkative on reception. They go above and beyond on a regular basis and make you feel part of the Riley’s family. Both deserve a pay rise. 11 out 10. Amazing gents

  • 5/5 Gina C. 8 months ago on Google • 2 reviews
    Fantastic service and super friendly staff. Made my time here visiting from Melbourne very memorable. Highly recommend! I will be back! Special shout out to Derek who was very helpful and even let us have use of the private room :)

  • 5/5 Daniel W. 3 months ago on Google • 1 review New
    Popped in over Christmas for some drinks and a bit of pool - will definitely be coming back! Matt in particular was super friendly and helpful. Tough to find somewhere decent to play pool around Chorlton, really glad we have this place!
