| - I couldn't resist trying out this poker bar in Sun City. I had visions of a mini Rampart Casino, which turns out to be somewhat accurate (minus the smoke!). I don't think they advertise much, and it's probably difficult to stumble upon this bar unless you're golfing here or know someone in Sun City.
The views are a big plus for this place, as it's located on the Palm Valley golf course. The bar, with gaming, has views right onto the course, and there's a patio adjacent to the bar also. They have 2 freestanding poker machines as well, if you don't want to socialize. The bar has a comfy vibe to it, and I was impressed with the wine selection. I had a pinot noir with my Monte Cristo sandwich with tater tots ($8.50) on the recommendation of the bartender. It's a very good sandwich, and the prices are reasonable. For example, a "dirty" hot dog with chili is $2.99, and a regular hot dog is $1.99.
My drinks were comped while gaming, and other than being charged $1 more than the price on the menu for my sandwich (it was changed), I have only positive things to say. The tavern is open 24 hours, and when I asked about the late night crowd, I wasn't surprised to hear that there isn't one. I recommend dropping by (it's near the shopping area with the CVS) for some reasonably priced food, great wine selection and smoke free gaming!
