The Academy is an upscale pool hall, set in former factory space that was once home to the Brunswick Balke Collender Company, manufacturers of pool tables and accessories. The place has about 20,000 square feet of renovated space divided into several different rooms, each with a different (although equally classy) ambience. Among the numerous pool tables are several hand-carved antiques that were actually built in the factory a hundred years ago. The Academy has an amazing stock of beverages: over 350 wines, 60 grappas, 20 vintage ports, 130 cognacs and over 100 international beers. The food is good, too. Call ahead to confirm hours, as this is a hugely popular spot for private events. |
