4 pool tables
The most-mentioned thing in their reviews, and the reason most people come.
That isn’t a riddle — it’s the directions. Four pool tables, darts, ping pong, arcade machines, a huge bar and food people come back for. Open seven nights, four in the afternoon until one in the morning. Two on Fridays and Saturdays.

We’re at 203 Church Street, but the way in is round the back — the rear entrance, behind the firehouse. First-timers drive past it. Once you’ve found it once, you never lose it again.
Naugatuck centre. When you can see the firehouse, you’re in the right place — we share the building.
Don’t look for a door on Church Street. The Den’s entrance is at the rear of the building, behind the firehouse. Unit 1.
Warm light, green felt and the sound of a break. The bartenders will say hello before the door shuts behind you.

Schematic, not to scale — the entrance is at the rear of the building. Exact approach and parking to be confirmed by the venue.

Street and lot parking around Church Street. Placeholder — the venue needs to confirm where customers should actually park, especially on a busy Friday.
Tournaments, league nights and open play — in one place, all week, without having to scroll a feed to find out. Tonight is highlighted.
Placeholder schedule. Only Tuesday Night Scotch Doubles is confirmed (from the venue’s own Facebook post). Every other night marked † is sample content for layout only and must be replaced with the real weekly schedule before this page goes live.
The Den runs its own room and puts teams on the road. Their Facebook bio says leagues were being organised for this summer — whether they have actually started, and how to join, must be confirmed before this page goes live.
Right now, sign-ups happen in person at the bar — or send a note and we’ll put you on the list.
It’s a proper games room, not a bar with a table shoved in the corner. Come with a partner, come with six people, or come on your own and get on the next table.

A second table when the pool tables are all running — and a good deal harder than it looks.
Boards on the wall, chalk on the board, and an argument about the maths.
Video game machines along the wall for when you’re waiting on a table.
Reviewers say “huge bar” more than once. Plenty of room to stand and watch a game.

Google files this place under “bar,” which does the kitchen no favours. Ask anyone who’s eaten here and you get the same two answers: the tacos and the mac and cheese bites.
The food is sooooo good. My favorites are the tacos and Mac and cheese bites. But I’ve liked everything I’ve tried.
Placeholder menu. Every item and price marked † is sample content for layout only. The venue’s real menu currently exists as one photograph on its Google profile — the full list and prices must be supplied by the venue before this page goes live.
Great place to play pool, super friendly staff and patrons. Video game machines and billiards and booze! The owner Rob came up and said hello and everyone, patrons included, made me feel very welcome. Will be back!
AFFORDABLE, FUN AND GREAT VIBES… that’s what I experienced at the Players Den of Naugatuck. The atmosphere of good energy hits you as soon as you walk through the door. The bartenders immediately greet you.
There are 4 pool tables, ping pong, and darts. Our go to place for a drink and a bite for a date night or night out with the girls.
“Great atmosphere great food and great people.”
Kitchen hours may be shorter than bar hours. To be confirmed by the venue.
