Over the years, Sam’s has hosted many of the legends of pool, Jimmy Caras, Willie Mosconi, Nick Varner, Jeanette Lee, Sarge Aylesworth and many more. The members of “Pink Floyd” stopped in while performing in Portland on a couple of different occasions, played pool, and enjoyed the warm friendly atmosphere.
Since 1984, Valerie Schwartz has managed Sam’s Billiards boasting of an excellent kitchen, full bar and 12 pool tables with pool cues, cases and accessories for sale. From the kitchen you can savor fresh homemade meals, everything from hamburgers, pasta, chicken and steaks, just to mention a few. There are tempting specials every night of the week where the ingredients are not prepared in advance. All meals are made to order.
Sam’s Billiards has hosted many charitable events the most recent being “Hot Shots for Hot Lunches”. In conjunction with Loaves & Fishes Meals-On-Wheels, Valerie held an open pool tournament with half of the dinner proceeds benefiting the Hollywood Meals-On-Wheels program. Sam’s is not just a place to go shoot pool. Valerie is involved in the community, it’s needs and concerns and has generously opened her doors to help contribute.
