They seem to think it’s okay to smoke in the office that is in the main building even though they are breaking the law. I hope they have stopped by now. My gf use to waste lots of money here but I’ve convinced her to move on. I recommend if you catch them smoking in the office to report them for putting people at risk. The smoke goes through the entire bingo hall. The payouts suck. Life is too short to waste it playing bingo in a dirty, stinky, place.

played bingo for the first time, and I’m so happy that I came here to learn! Marion was the manager on shift, and she was soooo amazing — asked me how much I wanted to spend, then loaded us up with all the cards we’d need, and gave us 3 dobbers for FREE! she sat down with us to explain the different games, order of play, and then asked us what we were drinking and brought us coffee & pop! If Marion is reading this, THANKYOU! if Marion’s boss is reading this — give her a raise! or some flowers! she is the best! all of the volunteers were awesome, and I cannot wait to go back!(won $ 10! yahoo!) Oh! and I was sooo happy that it was a non-smoking venue!

I enjoy bingo alot, my friends say that i am the only one they know that can eat a burger, text, smoke(when you could still smoke in the halls) and play my cards and check all my friends cards all at the same time. The only downside of this bingo hall i find is that the pay outs seem so small. i mean anywhere else i go the min for a nickle payout is $ 60 i have never seen that at Five Star i think the nickle payout last time i was there was $ 30… I will still go to bingo here because it is convienent and i like bingo but at the same time i think they would be alot busier if they had better payouts…

Don’t hate cause I’m writing a review about a Bingo hall. We’ve ALL played it ATLEAST a handful of times in our lives and c’mon, there’s no adrenaline rush quite like the one you get when you leap out of your chair and yell«BINGO!» I am by no means an avid player, but I do know a good Bingo hall when I come across one. A friend of mine had some fundraisers at Five Star Bingo and I happily helped out. Five Star is a fun place with a great vibe. The people are super friendly and everyone gets into the game. The BEST part about Five Star is that it’s open late on Friday and Saturday nights. Plus they have a good restaurant on-site with greasy food :) Oh, and did I mention how fantastic the volunteers are!!! Truly the best of the best!!! There’s no ifs, ands or buts about it, I’m a fan of Five Star. While the name suggests it’s a five star, in my books it’s a four. It’s not mind-blowingly THE best, but it’s definitely fan worthy :)
