Poker Palace, Casino in North Las Vegas, United States.
Poker Palace is a casino in North Las Vegas offering multiple gaming options in a single location. The venue has slot machines, table games, dedicated poker tables, a bingo room, and a sportsbook area for betting on sporting events.
The property was built in 1951 as the Jet Bar, renamed Bunny's Bar in 1955 after owner Bernard "Bunny" Karshen. In April 1974 Marvin and Laura Coleman bought 0.48 acres including the bar and added a casino that year with one blackjack table, two pool tables and eight slot machines. It became Mickey's Casino in 1978 and was renamed Poker Palace on September 19, 1980.
The casino's name comes from the poker tables that were part of its identity from 1980, when the Colemans renamed Mickey's Casino. In 1994 it became the first casino in the Las Vegas Valley to host a tax service on site, an idea later copied by Palace Station and Mahoney's Silver Nugget. Maddy's Paddy Cafe inside is named after the Colemans' grandson.
The location is accessible and has an on-site cafe for food and refreshments during your visit. It's helpful to check ahead since operating hours can vary by day, allowing you to plan your trip accordingly.
Maddy's Paddy Cafe, the coffee shop inside the casino, is named after the Colemans' grandson. The Poker Palace's large sign caught fire on the morning of January 26, 2015, while work was being done on it; firefighters took about 10 minutes to put it out, and the smoke was visible for miles.
