    Get there early if you want to actually play shuffleboard. The waitlist can be really long.

    $40/hr for a court feels pretty reasonable. Friendly service, too.

    If shuffleboard seems daunting, they've got board games (including catan) behind the front desk.

    Phillies and shuffle. That's what's good. But you knew that because you are there.

    The decor looks like it came out of a Wes Anderson movie taking place in 1950s Florida. Royal (Tenen)Palms!
