What is the acceptable minimum distance between the wall and pool table?

As far enough away to allow the players to hit their balls without wacking it with the end of their cue. Probably 2 meters plus

The average length of a pool cue is around 57 inches (60" = 5'). If the edge of your table is 6 inches from your playing surface, you will want a minimum of 51" between the edge of your table and the wall for comfortable play.
That said, a shorter space will only be a problem if the cue ball is right against the rail and you are shooting with the cue perpendicular to the rail.

How far away from the wall do you setup a dining table.  I have a big one to setup and once it is up, it will take 3 people to move.
