On the felt

Look inside where the cards are dealt

Six tables, a house dealer for each, and a room that's been laid out the same way since it opened.

How the room works

Meet your dealer before your first hand

Hand of cards being dealt across green felt

Nobody deals themselves in — every table gets its own house dealer, which keeps the pace even and means you're never stuck banking a game you'd rather just play.

Ask for a bigger table and you'll likely land on five hundred or euchre; ask for something quieter and crib or rummy will usually have the room.

Chips come from the counter, not the tables, and go back the same way at the end of the night — points only, nothing that leaves as cash.

Five hundred

The house game, most Wednesdays, with a seat kept for latecomers.

Euchre and bridge

Both run Friday nights, usually across two tables each.

Crib, rummy and canasta

Smaller tables through the week and Saturday's overflow crowd.

At the table

Know the table basics

  1. You need to be 18 or over to sit down, and ID can be asked for at any point.
  2. The house dealer runs the hand start to finish — you're there to play, not to bank.
  3. New to a game? Say so before the cards go out, not partway through a hand.
  4. Keep your phone off the felt; a photo between hands is fine, a call isn't.
