The Sportsbook at Golden Nugget Atlantic City is a comfortable 2,500-square-foot space that is located just off the Main Atrium and next to Michael Patrick’s Brasserie. The Golden Nugget took its first wager on Aug. 15, 2018, and opened its permanent sportsbook on Aug. 31. Poker players will recognize the sportsbook location as the former poker room.
With a TV or screen placed on pretty much every possible inch of wall space, the Golden Nugget is definitely one of the better places in Atlantic City to watch a game. There are five huge screens that make up the main viewing areas in the book and each one is surrounded by multiple smaller screens. There are also dozens of TVs hanging from the ceiling, ensuring you’ll have a great view of whatever game you’re trying to watch.
The sportsbook has seating for around 100 people. There are 12 large lounge-style chairs facing the main video wall with two large screens. There is also another section that features two rows of booths that face another video wall. The rest of the seating is made up of high-top tables and chairs.
The Golden Nugget has three regular betting windows and one high-limit window. There are also 11 self-serve terminals located in the sportsbook and throughout the casino property. These kiosks are incredibly easy to use: simply put in your cash, use the touchscreen to enter your bet(s), and wait for your ticket to print.
Food and drink are available at the sportsbook through Michael Patrick’s Brasserie which is located directly next door. The sportsbook menu consists of casual bar food: nachos, sliders, fried food, and pizza. We recommend trying the wings, which won the best wing sauce award at the South Jersey Wing Wars of 2019 contest. There is also a full bar available and daily drink specials.
One thing to note before visiting the Golden Nugget Atlantic City: the sportsbook does not take bets on the NBA. This is because the owner of the Golden Nugget, Tilman Fertitta, also owns the Houston Rockets.
