I'm probably one of the few people to go to Castle Bingo and leave with a Potted Plant. No shouting…read moreof the word HOUSE. No pound signs in my eyes - just a potted rose plant. I feel this perfectly justifies why myself and my family only go once a year (to celebrate my Nan's birthday). We all arrive having already spent the money we never seem to win! Yet at just £14 you can't complain - It makes for such a fun family night out. BINGO BASICS: If you haven't visited Castle Bingo before, joining is free! Fill out the simple form behind reception and you'll receive your temporary card. *Keep hold of this as if you win you need this to claim any winnings. Purchase your Bingo Books from the Booksales Department before taking a seat. You'll then have your first instalment of Bingo around 6.30pm! *Remember to concentrate as all you will ALWAYS have the number called, it's just the placement that varies and determines the winners. Numbers are written in columns. Single digits in the first, tens in the next then twenties and so on... If you win, jump on the table and swing your top around your head - Okay not really. Shout HOUSE, BINGO or raise your hand in the air. A member of staff will then check your claim and bring you your prize. GOOD LUCK! PS - It's ridiculously cheap to drink and eat here. For only £4.50 you can have a main meal, hot or cold drink AND a dessert!

I'm not really a massive fan of bingo, but I've been to this place a couple of times and have had…read morepretty nice evenings out, if I have to admit it (which I guess I do, really!) This is, as most of u already know, not really a young person's kind of scene. But despite this, if you go along with the right attitude (slightly crazed) and the right group of people (slightly crazed), then you're guaranteed a night you'll remember. According to their website, this Castle Bingo in Canton was the UK's first ever purpose built bingo hall, and it shows. This building, both inside and outside, has started to become a little bit shabby, but nothing that a clean down and a spruce of new paint wouldn't be able to tackle. Inside the hall it all feels decidedly 90's. Phoenix Nights and other such images spring to mind, as well as caravan holidays in Cornwall. But there is something annoyingly addictive and competitive about bingo. And still I manage to enjoy it every time.

I went here last xmas on a slightly ironic xmas do. There were about ten of us, we all had food and…read morefar too much alcohol. The building is an old converted cinema and is huge inside. It was the first time most of us had played bingo, and it really was good fun, not because the game was fun, but because it was so hard. You wouldn't think that crossing off numbers on a piece of paper would be all that hard, but at the speed they read out those numbers, I can assure you it is. By the end of the evening we were all rolling about laughing, much to the annoyance of the regulars. I don't suppose these big old bingo halls will survive the onslaught of internet bingo, so try it soon or miss one of the funniest nights of your life.

A lovely looking building from the outside in the night it really is very pretty! Inside it's you usual bingo hall, a bit retro, a lot of rinses and a lot of menopausal women fanning themselves with their card. Food and drink are stupidly cheap, i had curry, rice and chips for something like £1.50. This is an extremely good girls night out whatever your age and the game itself is slightly compelling. Although your cards are not that reasonable, prizes are pretty good and even if you loose yo get that warmish, happy glow that i imagine athletes get. Not sporty myself, it was nice to actually take part in something. Go on mun....
