Perfect pool bar with amazing vibes. Wide variety of clientele, all ages and races. Great service. There’s DJ’s on the weekend, karaoke on Thursdays that you don’t want to miss, gambling machines on site, and a big screen for all live sports games. A perfect late night spot, opened 7 days a week, almost 24 hours a day due to the gambling license. Very safe spot, with security on sight and armed response always around the corner. If everywhere is closed, you always know that Jos will be opened.

  • Christopher Nicholas

A cool place to go when you want a quiet pool game and a drink. When everywhere else is closed you can always rely on Jo's to keep your party pumping. I would strongly suggest that if you're going late at night or early in the morning that you be cautious, as the parking area is not very safe.

Local, after work spot, grab a beer, play some pool, juke box, friendly people, occasional hot chicks, mostly on fridays and Saturdays lol. Its a pool bar and a really chilled hang out place. Staff are cool.

The only place in Durban that closes at 7am. So if you and your mates are looking for a place to chill, this is the winner.

Great vibes... perfect for people who love playing pool... only thing that sucks is the prices of the drinks. Too expensive

  • Damien Smith

Nice chill spot, expensive on prices and maybe needs to invest in selling drafts as dumpies over priced from competitors
