Buying pool table in Algarve?

Post by Octopus »

Where can I buy a good pool table? I'll need somewhere that can arrange delivery also. I want a proper one like you'd use in a bar or a snooker hall... not a fold up one you'd get from Argos or something :D

thanks

Helder's Tropical Bar at the bottom end of Rocha Brava has two tables and he is always very helpful :)

ask Zeca from Zeca´s Bar - I think the guy who rented it from him now will open soon and can help you with his number. There, you also find a pool table.

Tried to sort a table from http://www.fjnorth.net/ but no joy... went there today at 11.30 and it was closed. Sent them an email and no reply. Must be great to be so busy you don't even need new customers :lol:

They are still open as I phoned them from Skype and a woman answered, she couldn't hear me though. Plus there was a van outside all marked up with their logos and number etc
