| - This is one of my favorite places to just hang out, have a drink and watch the game, or gamble. It is officially licensed as a casino, so they do serve food along with allowing smoking. The ventilation is pretty good at this location, so its not too smoggy in there.
The swing shift bartenders are awesome (Alyssa & Ben), and seem to never forget a name or face - or drink for that matter. There is a decent local following at this location, lots of the same faces, young and old, most of the time.
They have a decent variety of beers on tap, which I appreciate, because I hate beers like Bud, Miller, etc. Our favorite is the black velvet - Guinness floated on pear cider (some people call it a snakebite). The menu is your standard bar food. I love the chili cheese fries and the nachos. Be wary of ordering any of the monthly food specials though. I don't know who comes up with these weird combinations, but I've never had a good one. Stick with the main menu.
I've had better luck here with the poker machines here than any casino in town. That's not to say that there haven't been days where I've lost my britches. They have progressive machines, but watch where you sit if you want to play it, not all of the machines are on the progressive. A few of the machines are triple play, but not many. Their players reward program is decent. If you're gonna play, make sure to sign up for it so you get the meal comps/discounts and cash rewards. There are also three pool tables, which are often busy, and couches with big screen TV's. The place is clean and maintained well. The only problem with this location is the women's bathroom has some sort of ventilation problem that flares up at times (sewer stink) so I have to knock 1 star off for that. But other than that, the best PT location in town, hands down.
