Unlucky in games means you are going to be lucky in love...or so my mom used to say to me when I was a little girl.
20 years later and I believe she was right, I have the husband of my dreams - cheese I know - and rightly so I have no luck in games. This is probably why I wasn't really interested in going to Boradway Casino, this and the fact that I've worked in a casino so I felt I knew what to expect.
The casino itself is spacious but could do with a bit of brightening up. The gaming tables are huddled together in one area, a large elegant looking restaurant is situated next to the bar area and there are plenty of fruit machines and touchbets to play on. Towards the casino entrance there is a comfy seating area surrounded by TV screens showing music channels and Sky Sports.
I popped in with some friends after work for a quick drink and a cheeky bet. We agreed we would try to double our money and if that didn't work we'd make a speedy exit avoiding the ATM.
When we arrived it was quiet and the atmosphere was dull but as the afternoon became early evening the place came to life. The staff became chattier, the valet had been over several times to take drinks orders and more people had joined us on the tables. Unfortunately we didn't win but we had a good time playing. My luck hasn't changed so I'm not sure I'll be going back to gamble, but I may pop in for a bite to eat as the menu has a lot to offer and it wasn't too pricey. read more
