Owasso Family Billiards was built on generations of family, friendship, and community..and now, it’s our turn to carry that forward! Our story started nearly 40 years ago, when Jackie’s family opened a small, family-friendly pool hall in Bakersfield, California. At the time, much like Owasso today, there weren’t many places designed for families to gather, play, and feel welcome. That little pool
hall quickly became a local favorite and naturally grew into additional family-run ventures, all centered around creating warm, inviting spaces for people to spend time together. Those businesses were family-owned and operated, and Jackie spent much of her childhood inside pool halls: playing, learning, and watching firsthand what it takes to build a people-focused business. During those years, Joe’s dad was a close family friend, often helping out with handyman work and spending time around the room. Our families crossed paths many times over the years without realizing just how connected our stories already were. In 2011, we officially met while working at one of those family businesses: the pool hall that had been Joe’s favorite place to play, and the one Jackie was managing at the time. From there, our story naturally unfolded, and we’ve been building our dream together ever since. Today, we are the owners and operators of Owasso Family Billiards. Over the years, we’ve grown together not just as business partners, but as a family. This place holds special meaning for us: we’re dedicated to creating an inviting atmosphere where everyone, whether you’re reliving those first days or making new memories, can feel at home. People often ask us where we’re from and why we chose Owasso. The answer is simple: our grandparents on both sides were born and raised in Oklahoma, and we’ve always known this is where we wanted to plant our roots. Owasso felt like home even before it officially became our home: and now, we're here to stay! Everything at OFB is centered on Family. A welcoming place designed for all ages.
