Shooters Rack 'n' Roll Bar

You know the type of place—sticky floors, neon signs reflecting off felt tables, and the kind of atmosphere where someone's always got money on a match. Shooters sits right there on Essex Street in the city centre, and it's exactly what it says on the tin: a sports bar that takes its pool and darts seriously. The vibe is deliberately unpretentious; you're here for a pint, a game, and to shout at the telly with strangers who'll become your best mates by closing time. It's the sort of spot where regulars actually know the landlord's name, and the conversation moves between football, snooker, and whatever's on the big screens.
