That's the rub with an open game. Anywhere you put this thing the balls may go missing or it may have the holes stuffed. I don't see why there must be a dead space in the game, this will allow a cover to be installed. I don't think the covered tables have this spacing issue. Don't get me wrong I like the open concept for tournaments and at home, however buffoonery and shinaniganism being what it is it makes sense for a table marooned in a bar we don't frequent.
That was off topic. This isn't: There is a new pub on Merivale, the Firkin and Knight I believe by Baseline. I have a few friends that work there I can ask.

Looking at 1848, the Ottawa U. Student run bar. Looking to set up some competition to La Maison

If that fails, how about some of the Carleton U bars? (Oliver's I think the place was called...)

Oliver's and Roosters, at least in my time, had Tornado Foosball tables. Again the problem would be that Regent has the contract for the bar.

All that has changed and then changed again at Carleton. Lots of things got shifted around when they rebuilt the Uni-Centre. Oliver's is way smaller now, cut in half when it got bad press for a few stabbings on their wed/fri night, they took the dance floor out as result. Roosters was made into a coffee/bagel/wrap/hippie commune my first year so I never saw it as a bar. There is Mikes on the second floor, the grad student bar, was my spot to hang out at, but too small for a table. There is a third spot with a licence, the name escapes me but it is now a semi-upscale bistro type place. Baker's Grille maybe??
The contract issue remains the same though, likely all of Carleton is encompassed in the agreement.

Well I know that CUSA (Carleton University Students Ass.) is the one controlling Oliver's and Roosters. The contract with the vending company is with them. So other bars on campus may not be a problem. There is also the residence bar. I can talk with them.
