BJ’s Bingo & Gaming

Tons of broke ass tweeters here. I’m betting Max and they walk behind you and win on a nickel bet. 5 years and I’ve never ever won a jack pot of 1000. Messed up doesn’t pay out when bingo lets out. Plus what is all the kids doing in here?! Haven’t won a jackpot here in 5 years another $ 1000 and not even close to winning half this place is a joke

The best thing is Smokey Joe’s cigar lounge upstairs. Otherwise, a pretty average casino. No table games, just slots and bingo.

Bjs bingo has got to be one of the worst places in WA state for fair gaming!
We play all over the US and its a well known fact that WA gaming is a joke but this place takes the cake!
A few examples: They held a tournament for a slot contest in Vegas. They gave the first prize and the trip to an employee… The big 7s jackpot was over $ 100,000 and the managers relative wins it… the girlfriend of the caller just happens to hit a jackpot of $ 12,000.another manager wins $ 5000 on her birthday… on and on and on.
What’s it gonna take for either a federal gambling entity to investigate this obvious scam of a gambling hall and shut them down? Probably when hell freezes over since its tribal. Disgusting they can be so blatant and the state does nothing to stop it.
Just be warned this place is a complete rip off! On any given day most if your jackpots are being won by employees or their relatives so if you don’t mind never winning squat then enjoy your 4 hrs of boring.
The only reason they get two stars are a couple of employees are pretty sweet.
That’s about it…

Our first visit for Bingo. We had no idea how any of it works but for some reason the staff was generally avoiding eye contact or responding. Finally found a floor manager who quickly handed us off to another totally indifferent employee. Overall mood of hall and employees was boredom and indifference. Floor workers are selling extras but with zero help knowing what they are we bought none. We mostly felt lost, with no help. How about some help for first timers? Very boring, played Solitaire most of the time.
Food was inexpensive but again employee morale was very low and it took effort to get anyone to help.
We really wanted this to be something fun and new to do. NOT EVEN CLOSE. I feel sorry for anyone working there with morale so rock bottom low.

Sitting here chatting with Mom about her experience this Morning at Bingo. She says «I have a favorite Cashier that I always wait on. I never win from her but its worth the wait, She is so Nice and always happy to see me, that makes me feel so good, she remembers my Name every time and Always explains all the new games and price. she even knows what I want.» Thanks Samantha for making My Mom comfortable At bingo, she always looks forward to seeing you. You have a great team of well staffed employees. 100 GOLD STARS!!!

I was in the area for the weekend with my husband for a conference. I was looking for something to kill a little time and BJ’s Bingo was just up the road from where the conference was. I wasn’t sure what to expect from a bingo hall called «BJ’s» in Tacoma… but anyway… they have free bingo on Saturday mornings, so I figured I’d give it a shot. What a nice surprise! This is easily the nicest bingo hall I have been to. The building is huge, and has separate areas for slots, bingo, and speed bingo, as well as a restaurant. They have completely non-​smoking sections too, which is awesome! The interior of the building is very clean and well decorated. I was very impressed with the building itself, plus the bingo was fun too! (Even if I didn’t win… this time!)

I the last few times I have been there
The place has a very small amount of people there
It use to be you could see all your cards the last few times I have been there I had over 100 cards and could only see 9 so how do we know we really are playing a 100 and like someone else said it seems like the regulars are the ones that bingo. The other night my son and I were there same thing happen as soon as we were down to two someone always bingo same area all night that night we played with 130 cards getting on is as far as far as we got to. It just seems fishy to me. I think this because the place was so dead the bingo came from the same area all night not sure if I’m going there any more.

I love coming here. The people are very helpful in teaching you how to use the machines. The food is great tasting and great priced. Can go play bingo for under 30 a person and get a good lunch. Only bad thing is that I didn’t win but it is what it is.

My mother has been coming here for years. We love the midnight bingo. The payouts are consistent and worth it. It’s such a fun environment and everyone is friendly. I look forward to my next visit!

I discovered this hidden gem (although it seems everyone knew of it, but myself — go figure!)
The payouts are consistent & nice. I’ve bn a dozen times and not once did I leave in the red — either breaking even or leaving with at least double up of what I gambled.
Just tried out «Speed Bingo» last week & had so much fun. If traditional Bingo is just too darn slow for you, as it is to me (hehe) then Speed Bingo might be for you.
If you’re thinking its traditional bingo at a faster pace (as I thought), think again!
It’s actually a card that has only 3 sets of numbers on it (I.e 13,23,60) you can play a max of 3 cards per game.
I was a bit intimidated initially and finally after inquiring on «how to play» to the awesome security guard named «Guy». He literally walked me through it all (getting players card, explaining briefly the rules & then directing one of the Bingo hosts my way for further explanation and assistance.
5 min later I was yelling «Bingo»!! Lol! Ended up playing for 3 hours!!!
I wish BJ’s had Skye crap tables & a lil blackjack & poker! but honestly it is just perfect …,

I gave it a 3 so far because I will try again another time. I did not discover there was parking in the back until I was leaving. There is no clear signs of how to get from the slot area to bingo area or the cafeteria area from the slot area. Cashier sign is not in clear view.
I moved here from Indiana in March. The casinos there were very clean with top notch food. I would have thought the casinos etc. would be top notch here. I was very much mistaken. The Four Winds Casino in Michigan is the bomb. Great food and fun.

One thing matters in this place and it’s Smokey Joes Cigar Lounge!!! WIFI Hogs Paradise!
Great Service Here With Hawt Young Waitresses Taboot!
When you come here order the Buffalo Wings OMG IT’S DA SHIT!!! NO KIDDING!
Good food in general, great service, great relaxing environment. It’s a great destination for Monday Night Footballs!!!
Happy Eating

This is a tiny casino with very few slots. The last time I was there, some of the slot machines were kind of old and outdated. There is a large bingo parlor in the back, but I didn’t play.

This is the only bingo hall I will go to now. The staff is very courteous and they have an actual SEPARATE non-​smoking section! There are automatic sliding doors that close off the smoking areas instead of just open partitions like other places. The only problem is you’ve got to walk through the smoking sections to get to the non-​smoking area. I’ve brought friends in who haven’t had the same experiences as myself (hence the 4 stars) and were treated sort of rudely. They keep the place clean, have staff to fetch you food and drinks, screens right at your table, electronic and paper bingo, even speed bingo (which I haven’t tried).

It’s a maze of rooms upstairs & downstairs, smoking & non-​smoking, but it’s a well run hall that is comfortable, friendly & attractive. Don’t forget to get your ID card at front desk if you are a newbie, before you buy-​in. I was informed by the owner thru Unilocal message that they no longer charge $ 1 for the ID card, yay! So don’t forget your daubers!!!

This not your grandmother’s BINGO Hall. First off it is fancy for a bingo parlor no long tables space more individual with a monitor at every table doubling as a TV. Those not addicted to daubing can have the computer do it for you. I can not say I ave been to BINGO without dauber ink on my hands and arms. Yes Speed Bingo is a fast fun game nothing like dominoes other than the cards are same color. Three numbers on a plastic rectangle card one ante and three chips 25 or 50 cent per card you ply up to three cards.. First person to get all three numbers calls bingo gets everyone’s chips not used. Jackpots can be large. The staff at BJs is friendly the food decent enough for low cost. Anyone who despises smoke and smell over love of BINGO stay away. If they fixed the computer that controls balls would give five stars.

Its hard for me to give this place decent. review seeing as i am not a regular, but what i gather it is not a bad place. i recommend going on wednesdays and saturdays when i believe 15 of the games they play are worth $ 1000 and a packet to play ranges from $ 20 – 50. Overall decent place to play bingo eat food and mingle with old (er) people.

The original game of speed bingo is great you can come and go as you please. Its like a Cross between bingo and dominos sort of. No bingo dobbers required you use poker chips instead.

So you’re probably like, WTF are you doing at bingo? Ha! Well… a group of us went to El Gaucho’s in hopes of being able to grab some scotch and have a smoke only to find out that Washington state law doesn’t allow for it indoors (bummer).
The waiter kindly told us about BJ’s Bingo which resides on an Indian reservation and they have a cigar bar there. We made a quick drive up the road and discovered a quaint cigar bar fit with HD plasmas, humidors of stogies galore, and a friendly staff that was a pleasant surprise. Walking into the joint, you wouldn’t think this place knew what nice was. Hell, it’s a bingo parlor that reeks of Marlboro and Natty Light! But however, the nice bar called (Smokin Joe’s) is upstairs and is probably just renting out space.
Would def go again for a game and a smoke. Definitely a place for doods.
