Dave & Buster's
940 Great Mall Dr, Milpitas 408.957.9215
Where else can one play skee ball without having to fight off toddlers and adolescents? Located inside The Great Mall, adults can act like kids here and enjoy a full bar among 200 video games, more than a dozen pool tables and four, yes four, shuffleboards. A night here is a night to remember, no matter how many adult beverages one has consumed. (From Metro, Silicon Valley's Weekly Newspaper)

Pool sharks chalk up their sticks at this billiards club near Great Mall. Edgie's attracts pool players of all levels--from the professional to the wary beginner--at more than 22 pool, billiards and snooker tables.

Milpitas Bars and Clubs
And now for the more grown-up hangouts in Milpitas.
Brandon's
1800 Barber Lane, Milpitas 408.432.6311
Big-account clients, VIPs and prospective fathers-in-law are good candidates for a few fingers of premium scotch at this ritzy lounge adjoining the Beverly Heritage Hotel. Dark wood, brass and posh upholstery impart an old-boys'-club feel. Marathon power lunches and negotiations can be heard over clinking snifters of fine brandy. The food is exceptional, and the list of libations is long and refined. In all respects, Brandon's molds itself as the place to manage pow-wows with upper management. (From Metro)
