Exciting Greyhound racing. The spirit of the pups is infectious. You can see that the dogs really love to race. I always have fun. Come out and see for yourself before its gone forever. Just like the buffalo.

Though the place has a old facility feeling the atmosphere is still great. The dog races are amazing. You can get within 20 feet of the action and watch the race inside and out doors. There is a smoking area outside. The bets are easy to make. There is also a poker room. Though I didn’t partake in the game the floor was packed with a lot of players. The staff is real nice and helpful.

Our first time to go. The Paddock restaurant was good, staff & service excellent. The Kennel Club was clean & well organized under the current COVID-19 restrictions.

Be careful. Be very careful. The club is very good but not during a pandemic. Profit has always come first at the Kennel Club, more so than at any other card club anywhere else.

Great place to hang out and do some gambling on the greyhounds or via simulcast. Additionally, poker room was fairly clean and organized. I found beers to be cheaper than other comparable places. The only negative I noticed is that it may get warmer inside during the summer months. Overall I had a good experience.

Several nights at the dog track the food is surprisingly good? And that chef salad was a nice size salad for only 10 bucks. It was great. Didnt win on the dogs, but I won on the environment the entertainment.

Went over there late late night for a few rounds of poker since obviously races were over. Quite an interesting place. Extremely quiet and overly serious. We ordered last call, bartender was nice, great drinks . I sat at the bar to watch while my fiancé played from afar so as not to interfere. The glares and snide comments towards me from one table turned into two and luckily security stepped in to remove these “people”. Not a good first impression. Stick to the races here and go to a casino where you won’t be harassed for enjoying a quiet drink.

Review №26

This was a really fun afternoon . I’ve never been to live dog races before and it was a treat. The food was served quickly and very good with excellent service too. You must bet or there’s no point or excitement. My whole $4 winnings was fine with me. Definitely an entertaining place to go and horse races on video are available too. A fun and excited crowd .

Fun time. Place is a little worn out but they made a good effort to keep it clean. The poker room seemed to make up most of the crowd. It was nice to go outside and watch the races. Employees at the betting windows were friendly and helpful for a novice bettor. We didnt try the food. Menu was ballpark food - hotdogs, fries, nachos, etc. Parking was free and ample.

I would give the Palm Beach Kennel Club like 4.5 stars if I could. I love the place, I just dont like some of the characters that hang out there. Sometimes you just dont feel safe. Other than that, they have a beautiful VIP area up stairs, they have a huge poker room, and of course you can watch the dog races all day. Its very easy to bet for dog or horse races with kiosks everywhere and also the traditional lines where you can place bets. They have concession stands. They do not have slot machines or sports betting, Ive seen a few people ask that questions. Thats not allowed yet. You would have to look into taking the boat out for the day for that. But Its really fun! I really love the kennel club! I would definitely recommend it!

Delicious food and great service in the Terrace restaurant. Nice place to spend the afternoon or evening out. We need to take advantage of it while live dog racing is still going on.

Review №42

I checked out the room today, you must sign a waiver upon entering they take your temperature 6 people to a table, only do dealers assigned to each table for the entire shift, every other table is empty cannot walk through the poker room if you pick up your chips and leave the table you cannot re-enter the game for 6 hours, they look like they are taking every safety precaution they can

An inexpensive place to spend your day. Fun for the whole family. We went there to have lunch and watch the races. Im an amateur photographer and was able to photograph the dogs up close out in the terrace. Betting is not for everyone, but if you wish it is not expensive if you are reasonable. Had a great afternoon.

Poker room is nice. They make you pay for food and water tho... majority of dealers are competent !Could be a bit cold if you are at some specific place in the room, so bring a little jacket

Review №61

They should but dont play exactly by normal casino rules pertaining to the betting line or players covering their card. But it is an excellent place with friendly staff. They have high hands every 20 minutes with different payouts and a bad beat.Love the place and the people.

Review №62

Step back into 1969 in 2019! The kennel club is really a casino that features dog racing too. Apparently, dog racing will soon be abolished in Florida, so the kennel club might become the one arm bandit club. Great fun for seniors.

Review №67

4 main reasons why I will NEVER go back to the west palm beach kennel club:1. Certain players have more say of what happens than other players. Worse yet these specific players have more authority than the supervisors that work there (this being verified from the mouth of the supervisor himself).2. The rake they charge is OUTRAGEOUS.3. They force you to post $2 on the button on the 1/2nl holdem game (which the kennel club takes.4. They charge $2 for a water ($3 with tip)Bonus reason I will not go back:Its owned by the rooneys (Pittsburg steelers owners)

I am a frequent customer of the Palm Beach kennel club. The staff is always above avg tho today Josh the floor manager after noon shift 2/16 was extremely helpful and made it so I didn’t have to leave by taking my out going mail and making sure it went out with the companies mail.This individualized attention along with the day to day excellence is what makes the Palm Beach kennel club wonderful place in my opinion.
