A lil' more about CHALK Miami...
A new social movement is hitting the beach and this oneʼs got the balls! CHALK is Miamiʼs only temple to ping pong, billiards and a lounge unlike any other. A social playground where your claim to fame extends to how long your cue is or hard you wallop your paddle. What once was reserved for European nobility and later retired to wood paneled basements, is now redefining our idea of cool. Located in the mecca of frivolity - South Beach, CHALK caters to social hedonists up for a good game, good drink and a good time.
Originally built in 1961 and in the quintessential Miami mid-century modern style the former Washington Federal Bank and Maurice Weintraub designed building now houses CHALK. Boasting 6600 square feet of vintage throwback fun, fused with interactive entertainment, some would even say that itʼs the kind of fun you can bank on. From timeless classics like beer pong, connect four and checkers that take us back to simpler times, to modern luxuries such as booking your ping pong and billiards rounds on Apple iTouch computers, CHALK has it all. Complete with a massive twelve-foot screen, coupled with twelve state of the art LED screens, CHALK is perfect for sporting spectators who enjoy bestowing commentary about athletes than will never hear them. Adding to the vibe of the space is the innovative state of the art sound system, complete with built in wireless internet jukeboxes and VIP rooms equipped with iPod connections should one choose to DJ and set the mood themselves. Though we politely request that you refrain from playing any renditions of the “Macarena”.
Inspired by hues of emerald billiard felt the theme of green continues, as CHALK is pleased to provide guests and Miami with the ultimate and only green friendly lounge in South Beach. With an eco conscious design that includes LED lighting, Dyson hand dryers, biodegradable cups, waterless urinals and even emailed receipts, CHALK is setting the standard for the modern entertainment model.
Nestled among the seven Olympic standard ping pong tables and five billiard tables are two private VIP table rooms, perfect for intimate gatherings or fierce one on one competitions, for those interested in challenging their formidable opponents to the death, to a strip, or to a beer. A beer that the defeated can conveniently obtain at the fully stocked bar armed with both domestic and import. Defeat never tasted so ice cold and good. Should the wildly and unforgettable good time work up
Reinventing the idea of ordering in on a night out. Its how our balls roll.
