I've been here a few times with friends for themed B-day parties. Best when you're in a large group with friends as being alone or with another person in this rather otherwise sad atmosphere makes one feel like an emo zombie. The other patrons remind me of those sad people in Vegas tied to a slot machine. When I was there for parties I had an awesome time. The prices are fair and the staff are... more

Kinda a gambler... Kind of a nut too, when I know I could win some cash!!! a little confusing the first time and definitely really fast paced. Go with a friend or two but try not to interupt the concentration of your friends as you need to pay attention!.. A really good informal date place too.

Went for my first time of BINGO a little intimidated, but left here feeling like a pro. This place rocks. The staff and clientele live up to their sweet heart reputation as mentioned in other yelp reviews.

Tips:
Bring a lucky charm to earn bonus respect from the regulars.
No need to wear your best outfit - sweat pants will do.
They don't sell alcohol... do what you gotta do.

BINGO! Oh how badly I wanted to be able to yell this into the crowd of people!

I went her with my team from work as a "team building" activity, little did we know we would soon be obsessively competing against each other! We all frantically dabbed away as fast as we could trying to with the coveted prize but no dice! We because so obsessed when we finished our cards we went back for more and... more

I haven't played BINGO for so long.. This place is a fun and inexpensive way to spend a few hours. I went with a group of friends, none of us BINGO gurus.. everybody was so sweet and helpful. I found the place a bit smokey and run down.. Also, the person calling out the BINGO numbers wasn't as enthusiastic. Is this the norm?

Unfortunately, I didn't get any BINGOs, but I'll be back Planet Bingo!

Cheap, affordable and fun! If you're thinking of something to do with friends one night and you're stumped, Planet Bingo is a great option. It definitely offers a unique experience. (See Robin M. and Cydni H.'s reviews).

The crowd is highly senior and First Nations with a bunch of randoms from all walks of life! We were a table of random newbs. The regulars were extremely helpful in guiding us... more

Don't let the lingering bluish haze of cigarette smoke outside the entrance deter you -- once you go through the doors of Planet Bingo you will find the friendliest, most helpful, most hilarious, and definitely the most unique characters you're likely to encounter on any given Vancouver night.

A cheap and mostly pretty fantastic way to spend a few hours, playing a couple of games of bingo with... more

This can be a great place to while away an afternoon. If you tell the employees that you're new, they'll explain the cards and games to you and make sure you don't get in over your head. A lot of the games can be complicated, but there are TV screens EVERYWHERE that display what's required for a winning card.
The clientele has always been beyond friendly to us when we've gone, like they're... more

Came here as the first installment of a date-adventure and we had a blast. The staff were uber helpful and gave us VIP treatment (high life, baby!). We sat next to an older lady in a sea of older ladies who kept looking up at us to see if we were ok. She'd check over our cards to comfirm. Sweet gal. I overzealously tried to play 3 cards at once. Not a smart move for an amateur. Funny/fun... more

Under the B: Bingo!! Being a large fan of the Bingo for Life event at Celebrities, I decided to try out some 'real' bingo for my birthday party. A friend had been to Planet Bingo before and highly recommended it be the venue we go to.

Under the I: Interior! With three floors available, you definitely have your choice of seating. It is cash only, with an ATM available on the second floor. Each... more

Our birthday party group had made reservations, so we got the whole of the third floor to ourselves! The staff were very helpful, introducing a bunch of bingo-ignorant Gen Xers to the subtleties of the game. As the first round started, the silence of concentration was palpable...

Two members of our party won ($40 and $120 respectively), and the whole gang had a fun evening. Would love to have... more

THE Bingo hot spot for the typically mild mannered enthusiasts out there. Chalk full of people who live out most of their livelihood waiting for the statistical probability that they will eventually get Bingo, many choose to buy up to ten sheets per draw, and have half a dozen bingo stampers each in case the other five run out.

The cloudy haze out front is the enormous group of cigarette... more
