Haha this place is simply a joke. It's in Chester, Pa recently renamed Harrahs Philadelphia but don't be mistaken its equivalent of being in Olney section of Philadelphia it's just filthy and has more trash then money coming out of it. Okay I'm rating my review a 5 out of 5 for interesting but everything else is negative about this... More

I've been going to this casino since they opened in 2007. Each year they have gotten worse and worse. The place has no energy and no slot winners. I lose 85% of the time I go and won't go back for a few months now. The people in there look sad and poor. No wonder, there at harrahs. The machines... More

I went with a friend last night. We were on our way home from a charity event in the city so thought we would stop. We are two middle age professional women each with incomes over 100k a year. We were also dressed in cocktail attire since we had just left a charity event. We arrived between 10:45-11 pm My... More

Totally disgusting, lacking service, people that work there extremely rude. Slots are very very tight. Full of smoke. People gambling look sad and desperate. Stay away from this hell hole.

This casino is much better than Sugarhouse. Not that smoky and the place is actually cleaner. The banquet rooms are situated well past the casino floor and it is much classier. I would recommend this casino if you want to have a good time.

I couldn't wait too leave! It is not a place I suggest anyone go to enjoy yourself. I went a second time to give it a chance, but it was again bad if not worse.

Harrahs Philly has a WSOP room with 35 tables. They offer limit and no limit games at several denominations. Most players are friendly. Likke every poker room you get a few clowns/knuckleheads. The slots area is decent from penny slots on up. The comps for the casino are similar to AC. There are a decent number of other table games... More

Harrahs Philly has over 30 poker tables with many limit and no limit games. You can play Texas Holdem 2-4 limit to stakes higher than 20-40 NL. Occasionally I have seen 50-100 NL. Most of the patrons at the poker tables are nice. Like every poker room I have been to you get a few knuckleheads. The parking lot is... More

Went to Harrahs again to see if there have been any improvements. Things DID change! They got WORSE! The racetrack was empy at 12:39 (Post Time 12:40) I found myself watching the first race with the local homies and degenerate poker scabs. Did get a laugh! There was a sign advertising FAMILY DAY at the races in April. Sounds like... More

First off people are right when they say this is in a HORRIBLE section of town. We came off 95 and had to drive through the city and this section isn't the type of place you would want to come to a complete stop at the stop signs type of area. The casino is literally right next door to a... More
