This is the only casino in Philadelphia. I think it would have been better placed at 8th and market like it was supposed to so it got the tourist dollars, but they put it in the middle on nowhere instead. The food options here are pretty weak and they let people smoke (YUCK). On the bright side, they have an... More

This little casino is smokey and nasty. The play does not appear to offer a random chance to win anything. All sad faces... never a buzzer or big win on the slots. Blackjack is hand aftter hand with the dealer always having 20. It's hard to win 1 hand out of 5. I watched a craps game and the dice... More

It is obvious this Casino was built in a hurry to get it opened. We went on a Saturday night, so , of course, it was crowded. We had to park a good distance from the doors. You will see how crowded this place is when you walk in. Slots and other games are so close, you will be bumping... More

Although it's on the small side, for a lot of nearby residents it's a great place to spend a few hours gambling. It's attractive, nice decor and convenient free parking or valet if you'd like. This is about 15 mins. from my house..i only gripe is that there is a lack of video poker machines..i think it needs to be... More

While in Philidelphia on vacation with my husband and 19 year old son, we looked up online for attractions and found the Casino online. It said that it was 18 and over on the site we looked out (now I cant promise you it was the Sugar House Casino's page) but there was more than one posting saying the age... More

We stopped in on a Tueday morning just to see it. It was crowded, noisy, and extremely smokey - I couldn't get out fast enough.

I'm not much of a gambler, but I was curious when I stopped in last Summer. They had a promotion going where if you signed up for a new affinity card and used it for 30 minutes you would get up to $50 losses at slots refunded. So I got it, sat down at some machines and played the time... More
