Going to Charlestown Races in April. Was there quite a few years ago and I remember the steaks in the clubhouse were great. Has anybody been there lately? Just wondering if it was still as good. And no.....before anybody asks, the steaks werent made from the previous nights losers at the track. LOL

Most of the indoor space is "smoking". I couldn't stay very long the last time we went cuz the smoke was choking me and I didn't enjoy being limited to the less smoky and VERY small "non-smoking" area. I don't remember it being like that over the last few years.

Is that in the restaurant? I didnt think smoking was allowed where food was being served.

Post how it is, we went a few months back and it sucked because of the stinking ass smoke. Liked the place and set up but we won't go back unless it becomes smoke free. I'm not one of these anti-smokers but the place just straight up stank......

Where is this? On the Eastern or Western shore? My hubby likes the racetrack, I like the slots, thats why we're going to Charlestown.

It's about 40 min past the bridge in Delaware off of 404; I believe it's actually at the Delaware State Fairgrounds...........tables and slots, I'm not sure about the track part

For the tables, do they have a poker room or is it blackjack, roulette and craps?

They have them all, not in a separate room but all out on the floor, I only play the slots so I can't tell you a lot about the table. We drove up and back in the same day and it wasn't bad; closer than Charlestown and Ocean Downs and very clean.

Well I went Friday. As I was walking through the casino, yeah you could smell the smoke. But I went to the poker room, which is non-smoking. It was a pretty good set up. I ended up at the same table for almost 9 hours. It was fun and I did pretty good. I think next weekend I'll try Dover and see how their poker room is.
