Diamonds is the 13,000 sq ft billiards bar and lounge in Pickering: two party rooms, 22 big-screen TVs, pool tables and a Top 40 soundtrack. No cover, easy drinks, room to spread out. Here's the honest rundown, plus directions.
The sceneDiamonds opened in 2019 and became the GTA-east spot for both pool players and people who just want a fun night out. It mixes the relaxed feel of a billiards hall with the polish of a modern bar, classy but easygoing, ideal for a big group. The two party rooms come loaded with 22 large 80-inch screens, so it's a real destination for live sports like NBA games.
This isn't a bottle-service club. It's a sprawling lounge where you rack a table, post up with friends, and keep the drinks moving without spending big. If you want space, screens and pool instead of a packed dancefloor, this is the move.
Quick factsDiamonds doesn't run a guestlist, so there's nothing to sign up for. Entry is no-cover and everyone's treated the same at the door. With 13,000 sq ft there's room for a big crowd, but for a busy weekend or a game night it's smart to come early and grab a table. Directions below.
The honest reviewDiamonds is at 2200 Brock Rd Unit A1, Pickering (L1V 2P8), just north of the Finch and Brock Road intersection. It's an easy spot to reach from across the Greater Toronto Area, with parking and room for a big crowd.
It's a large venue, spreading over 13,000 square feet, and it comfortably fits between 650 and 867 guests. It blends a billiards-hall feel with a contemporary bar, with space for pool players and for the two party rooms loaded with big screens. Whether you're racking a table or just hanging out, there's room.
A mixed crowd, mostly 21 to 30-plus. You get pool regulars, groups out for a game on the screens, and people who just want a relaxed lounge with their friends. It's social and unpretentious.
The playlist is a blend of Top 40 hits and classic throwbacks, a soundtrack built for a broad crowd. You can groove to familiar beats while you play and hang out, without it taking over the room.
Casual bar dress code, but dress smartly. There's no super-strict policy, but sportswear, baggy clothes and hats are generally not allowed, and sneakers should be designer. Women can bring purses; large bags and men's side bags usually aren't permitted. Door staff can deny entry based on attire, so put a little effort in.
There's no cover charge to enter. You can rent a billiards table for a small fee, and in winter there's a coat check that runs about $5. Drinks, mixed, beer or shots, come in around $10 each, so a night here doesn't have to be expensive.
In line with Ontario's legal drinking age, entry is 19+ for club nights and ticketed events. Most guests land between 21 and 30-plus, which keeps the room grown and the vibe relaxed.
Diamonds doesn't run a guestlist, so everyone's treated the same securing entry. It's a billiards bar and lounge, so there's no booth or bottle service either. What you get instead is plenty of seating to enjoy drinks and food, perfect for hanging out, playing pool and catching a game with your people.
No cover, no list. Grab directions, rack a table and catch the game.
