Ask anyone about gambling in the US and they’ll immediately mention Las Vegas and Atlantic City. Despite these two cities absolutely dominating the land-based gambling market in the US, it’s probably quite surprising to hear that there are plenty of casinos in other parts of the country, and even closer to the Big Apple than a drive out to New Jersey.

Visiting a casino can be a fun way to spice up a night out, or the perfect way to try and win back some of the money spent on a short break to the city, so we’ve put together the top five New York casinos for you to check out the next time you’re fortunate enough to visit the Empire State.

Resorts World, New York City

It’s a place for those who enjoy the hustle and bustle of a busy casino, which this venue has in abundance.

Empire City Casino

Best Casino On Long Island

Just like Resorts World, the Empire City casino is attached to racetrack, this time at the Yonkers Raceway roughly 20 miles north of the city. Owned by the Rooney family since 1972, the huge gaming floor at the Empire City Casino has every table game any avid gambler could possibly need, the pick of the bunch is certainly Blackjack, to take advantage of the facilities it is highly recommended that you learn how to play blackjack before your visit. As well as Blackjack, there is Roulette, Three Card Poker and Sic Bo. And there’s a huge variety of video machines and slots games – 5,300 in all. Guests can also take advantage of the huge selection bars and restaurants at the complex, including Italian specialities at Nonno’s Trattoria, a huge selection of world foods at the Big Kitchen, and traditional pub grub at Dan Rooney’s sports bar.

The racetrack at Yonkers is one of the most popular racing spots in the state, and if not the country, so of course visitors have the option to bet on the cinder track buggy racing that takes place multiple times throughout the week. Bets can be taken within the casino, but if you fancy getting closer to trackside, then you’re welcome to take to the stands to watch the racers go past at full speed.

The casino itself is huge. You’ll be dazzled by a 300-foot curved glass wall and a 30,000 sq foot gaming room – adorned with a sleek and elegant design.

Resorts World, Catskills

About 90 miles north of New York City in rural New York State, you’ll find the incredible Catskill mountains. In complete contrast to the city, visitors can enjoy miles of state parks and hiking trails, as well as luxury lodges and even hunting and wildlife spotting trips. So while your getting away from the hustle and bustle up in the mountains, why not pay a visit to the Resorts World Casino?

Owned primarily by billionaire KT Lim of Genting Malaysia, the resort only opened in early 2018 –so everything feels really fresh and modern, and you’ll be enjoying a complex that really does have everything you could imagine in a casino. Guests who don’t fancy getting back to the city after a late night can check into the hotel, and even enjoy a spa treatment the morning after to get rid of the hangover.

The gaming floor features 150 live table games, including Blackjack, Craps, Roulette, Baccarat, Pai Gow and a vast selection of 2,150 slot machines featuring the latest titles. There’s also a poker room, a luxurious private player’s lounge and high limit salon-privés.

Aside from the expansive gaming floor, guests can also enjoy Asian cuisine, casual dining at the bar and grill, and a succulent steaks at celebrity chef Scott Conant’s Cellaio restaurant. There’s also a 24/7 kitchen and drinks service, perfect for those late night munchies when you’re busy breaking the bank.

Jake’s 58

Located on Long Island and not far at all from New York City, this large casino, 227 room hotel and entertainment complex is the perfect location for some gambling without having to travel too far afield. Just off the Long Island Expressway, the casino is the perfect stop off on the way to the Hamptons, or if you just fancy a bit of gambling while exploring Islandia. It’s owned by Suffolk Regional Off-Track Betting Corporation and Delaware North, and opened in 2017.

Welcoming guests with its stunning glass roof, it has a cosy and inviting atmosphere. But let’s be honest – it’s mainly about the gaming. This floor mainly has electronic machines – 1,000 of them to be precise – including electronic Baccarat, Blackjack Craps and Roulette, along with regular music and entertainment and a great menu at Bistro 58.

Make sure your next trip to New York features a trip to the casino. You could even end up paying off the trip if you win big, and there’s always the chance that you could bump into some celebs while you’re there!

Take Care of All Your Guests

How many people will be at your next party? Everyone isn’t going to be playing games the entire time they attend your party. You’ve got to have a balance of time and places to mingle and time to play games. Many of your friends and guests might bring a date or significant other that doesn’t want to play but wants to be able to watch. If you rent too many tables, you’ll be wasting money, which is where we come in. We can help you have the right balance for your party.

Party Packages for You

Our team at M and M Entertainment has been offering casino night party packages for a long time. We’ve developed a list of packages that work well for the number of guests you might have at your party. Here are some of the basic packages you can choose from:

2 Tables

If you have approximately thirty guests that will attend your party, you’ll only need a couple of tables to meet their needs. We have a pair of packages with one blackjack table in each one. You can pair this table with a poker table for those game nights when card play is a big part of the fun, or a roulette table to offer a different game for your guests.

3 Tables

When you party will have up to fifty guests in attendance, you’re going to want to have at least three tables offered. You can enjoy one of each for blackjack, poker, and roulette, or you can have a pair of blackjack tables and a poker table when you want to have a serious card playing party.

4 Tables

A Party of 65 people will mean you need to have four tables for the fun. Choose a package with one of each table for blackjack, poker, roulette, and craps or choose a package that as two blackjack tables and one poker and one roulette table. You can also have a pair of blackjack tables and poker tables if you’d like.

When you party is around 100 guests, you’ll want to have at least six tables. Choose three blackjack tables and one of each for poker, roulette, and craps or have two poker tables, a roulette table, and the three blackjack tables for the fun you’ll have during your party.
