Featuring eight full‑size Diamond pool tables, a stunning 47‑foot handmade bar, and stylish lounge seating


Raleigh, NC – May 2025 – A fresh addition to the Brier Creek entertainment scene, The Oak Room, opened on May 14, 2025, at 7990 Arco Corporate Drive Suite 100, introducing an upscale billiards and cocktail lounge to the Shoppes at Brier Creek. 

Owned by Brian and Mindy McIntire—who also operate High House Billiards in Cary—The Oak Room transformed a former doctor’s office into a luxurious yet laid‑back space. The venue features eight full‑size Diamond pool tables, a stunning 47‑foot handmade bar, and stylish lounge seating tailored for both league‐play and casual pool enthusiasts.

The bar menu highlights Mindy’s crafted cocktails alongside a curated list of premium spirits. Staffed by a team of six to seven attendants, table rental is priced at $4 per hour per player, delivering an accessible yet refined experience.

Conveniently located off Highway 70 behind Brier Creek Commons, The Oak Room caters to young professionals, business social gatherings, and recreational league players. It taps into Raleigh’s growing nightlife trend, offering an alternative to traditional bars by combining sport and sophistication.

Early reviews are positive: a May 15 visitor raved that the “specialty drinks are delicious” and praised the setup of the pool tables. The Oak Room also leverages its proximity to Research Triangle Park and area office centers to attract after‑work crowds and entertainment seekers. 

Open daily for afternoon and evening play, The Oak Room welcomes walk‑ins and league reservations. Whether for casual hangouts or competitive play, it offers a polished yet approachable destination for billiards and conversation in the Triangle. Visit their website here.
