Relax and unwind with your pals as you enjoy a great game of pool at Eddie's Classic Billiards. This is one of Stockton's favorite places to shoot pool for the obvious reason that in addition to the excellent atmosphere, Eddie's offers $5 per hour games if you're playing solo or $9 if you are playing with a partner. Great drinks specials, a friendly staff and excellent munchies on the menu all equal a great time that can only be aptly described as "classic"!
