The VIP List · Free to join

The best nights
never get
advertised.

Cheap rack hours on a quiet Tuesday. A round on the house when the fight goes twelve. The league sheet before it fills. None of it makes the website — it goes to the list, and the list gets there first.

17 tables · Diamond & Brunswick 40-foot bar · 12 taps from $4 Kitchen open late

Get on the list

Name and email is all we need. Phone only if you want the odd text about a one-night thing.

A couple of emails a month. We never sell your details, and every message has a one-click unsubscribe. That is the whole deal.

  • First word, every time League signups, trivia and karaoke nights, the big fights. The list hears before the website does — and before the room fills up.
  • Offers that never hit the site Quiet midweek deals, cheap rack hours and food comps that only go out by email. No codes floating around the internet.
  • Something on your birthday Tell us the date and there is a free hour on the felt waiting for you. Bring people; they pay.
  • First taste of the new stuff Seasonal cocktails and menu changes go to the list before they hit the board.
The pool room at Rush Hour in South Amboy, NJ
What you’re joining

A real sports bar, with a pool room.

Rush Hour is seventeen tournament tables — Diamond and Brunswick, 7-foot and 9-foot, Simonis cloth on the Diamonds — in a room of their own behind an exposed brick wall. On the other side: a forty-foot wood bar, twelve taps from $4, a full kitchen and grill running late, the big games on the screens, and two TouchTunes jukeboxes instead of somebody else’s playlist.

Pool is $8 an hour per player in the afternoons, and pool is walk-in — take any free table.

Before you sign up

The honest version

How much will you email me?
A couple of times a month, and only when there is genuinely something worth sending — an offer, an event, a league sheet opening. No weekly newsletter, no filler.
Does it cost anything?
No. The list is free and always will be. There is no card, no membership fee and no tier to buy into.
Do I have to give you my phone number?
No — it is optional. We only use it for the occasional text about a same-day thing, like a last-minute deal or a big fight. Leave it blank and you will still get everything by email.
Does being on the list hold me a table?
No. Pool tables are walk-in only — first come, first rack — for everyone, every night. A table in the bar and restaurant can be booked on Yelp by anyone. The list gets you offers and early word, not a held table.
What is the birthday thing?
Tell us your birthday and we will send you a free hour on a table to use that week. Bring whoever you like; they pay their own rate.
Can I get off the list?
One click, at the bottom of every email. We do not sell or share your details with anyone.

The list is free, it is short, and it is the only place some of this ever shows up.
