Buffalo Billiards is one of Washington, DC's favorite places to shoot some great pool. The regulation tables are strategically spread throughout the venue so that you can catch televised sporting events on any of the several screens throughout the place. In addition to darts, there's also a great menu of burgers, sandwiches and other munchies to enjoy as well as equally enticing selections from the fully-stocked bar.

Stroll through the galleries and discuss your impressions of these works and see where the conversation (and the afternoon) goes from there.
