Live Table Games at Casino New Brunswick
Casino New Brunswick is located at 21 Casino Drive in Moncton, and the property runs one of the most complete gaming floors you will see in Atlantic Canada. On the main floor there are roughly 20 live tables in action: blackjack, roulette, craps, plus a separate room just for poker. No membership card needed, no pre-registration form, no long entry process. You walk in and you play.
The legal gambling age in the province is 19, and we follow that rule closely. If you look younger than 30, our staff will almost certainly ask for ID at the entrance. Guests under 21 should have two separate pieces of identification, not only one card. These checks happen every time you visit, not just on your first trip, so it is worth making sure your wallet is with you before you head to the door.
What Games Are Actually Running
The table mix sticks to formats most players already recognize. Here is what you will see on the floor in normal operation:
Blackjack - several tables running, with minimum bets that change from table to table
Roulette - standard wheel layout, no unusual side rules
Craps - offered daily on the main floor
Poker room - its own section, using a call-ahead list system
The poker room needs a bit of extra explanation, because it does not work like a regular walk-up table. You do not just sit down when you feel like it. Instead, you phone 506-861-4632 after 5 PM on Thursday, Friday, or Saturday, give the staff your name, and they put you on a list up to 60 minutes before you plan to show up. That is the full process. It is there to control the crowd on busy nights, and in practice it is usually simpler than standing around waiting for a seat.
Table Hours - and Why You Should Confirm Them
Live tables follow their own schedule and do not open at the same time as the rest of the casino. The slots floor generally starts up at 10 AM most days. Table games, on the other hand, only begin at 4 PM. If you are driving in from outside Moncton only for live games, that time gap can really matter.
From Sunday through Thursday, live tables normally operate from 4 PM until 2 AM. On Fridays and Saturdays, they extend slightly and usually run from 4 PM to 3 AM. Some third-party casino or travel sites still show older information, with different start or closing times, and those listings are not always updated. If you are planning a specific night out, it is smarter to pick up the phone before you leave home.
| Day | Table Games Hours | Poker Room Contact |
|---|---|---|
| Sunday - Thursday | 4 PM - 2 AM | 506-861-4632 (after 5 PM) |
| Friday - Saturday | 4 PM - 3 AM | 506-861-4632 (after 5 PM) |
For general questions, the main phone line is 506-859-7770, and the toll-free number is 1-877-859-7775. If you want details on current table minimums or a specific rule at a particular game, the pit manager can be reached at 506-861-4654. Calling that number is usually the quickest way to get a clear answer straight from the floor.
One practical tip we always mention to first-time visitors: a quick call about table limits before your trip can save you from an awkward moment when you arrive at the felt. Minimum bets can move up or down depending on the day of the week, the time of night, and how busy the room is at that moment.
The Slots Floor and General Access
The slots area follows a longer schedule than the table pit and is open more hours each day. Regular floor hours are 10 AM to 2 AM from Sunday through Thursday, and 10 AM to 3 AM on Fridays and Saturdays. Across the floor there are around 600 machines active. Entry to the gaming area does not require any fee or cover charge.
Drinks are available while you play on the floor. A buffet operates on select days but not every single day of the week, so it is worth checking in advance if a buffet stop is part of what you want to do. The wider casino complex also includes a hotel and a spa on-site, which makes it a straightforward option if you are driving in from another town and want to turn your visit into a short trip instead of a quick evening.
Before Your First Visit - Practical Notes
Here are a few small things that make a first visit smoother and avoid surprises:
- Bring valid government-issued photo ID. Guests under 21 should have two different documents ready.
- Plan to arrive after 4 PM if your main goal is to play the live tables.
- For live poker, phone 506-861-4632 after 5 PM on Thursday, Friday, or Saturday.
- Check casinonb.ca or call 506-859-7770 before you travel, as hours can shift.
- Mechanical or electronic devices are not allowed on the casino floor during play.
- Players registered in the voluntary self-exclusion program automatically forfeit any winnings, without exception.
