Foothill Square Bingo

4 of us Went to foothill bingo afternoon session, they had 3 machines left, we purchased all three, I will play the papers packs and strips etc. Bingo police starts to follow us around while we were looking for a seat. I asked, why are you following us? His reply,” I see you have 3 machines and there’s 4 of you one of you gone have to leave, everybody has to have a machine to stay and play” we all looked at one another and said,“lets all go“so we turned around and walked out the door… and hit the Bay Bridge.

I love this bingo. Speed is perfect. No time to mess around. LOVE the staff and players. You get a few crazies, and beyond ratchets but all in all everyone is really cool. Mike you’re awesome!

Security guard experience was uncalled for. Tall black male guard violated my rights I was talked down too. Never not once did he ask my side of the story very bad experience at foothill square bingo.

Best Bargain in Town! Not going to find many places that offer 25 chances to win $ 500 for $ 15… My Grandmother has been playing here since 79′ and is treated like family by everyone involved, from management, runners, callers, snack bar, security and fellow players! I might say sometimes she is a bit overwhelmed at the speed they call as they forget she’s 102 so they could slow down a tad when calling on strips or specials but otherwise everything runs pretty smoothly! Also the layout is pretty player friendly as there’s not a bad seat to be had! Thanks to all involved!
‘BINGO”, Blow that Whistle Nana!

I used to go to foothill bingo everyday, but lately I only go once a week, since they change the days of operations it’s not the same anymore. I was there earlier with my daughter and I was so pissed because some
People put stuff on the table so nobody can seat there, I thought this place is first come first serve especially on Fridays and marathons, and when I asked the lady if somebody sitting on the vacant space by their table she told me there’s more space but there is, I guess she just doesn’t want different race on their table. I really like the place because Kyle and Shannom
Are very nice to me not to forget Jeff and Chris Smith and Little Chris. I hope next time if they say no reservation that means no reservation or if it’s first come first serve they have to follow that. That’s why I don’t feel like going there anymore coz of the rude people that think they own the place. On my first review I’m talking about KB he don’t care about the bingo players, he call the numbers too fast that’s why most people miss their bingo, he’s like in a racing competition, I think he forgot that most bingo players are elderly .i hope he’ll change a little bit.

this is the most reasonable place ever to play bingo. they also have a snack bar for burgers/​sandwiches, fried shrimp, chinese food, and many other menu items. AWESOME!

For $ 15 you get a machine that holds 3 bingo sheets and 3 paper sheets; each sheet hold 6 bingo cards. Jackpot is $ 500 for all 10 games! Bonus cards are $ 3 each, jackpot the same. $ 0.50 cents for stampers. That’s the basics of this place. Now here’s the reality of it.
When I first got there I was gun Ho about stamping and having the machine work its magic. The bubble was busted after the first minute of the first game. YOU HAVE TO ENTER ALL NUMBERS IN YOUR MACHINE ITS NOT AUTOMATIC AS WELL AS STAMP YOUR CARDS!
Image now, stamping 12 bingo cards and entering numbers simultaneously! Crazy! On top, the caller is SUPER FAST, meaning numbers get thrown at you every 2 seconds. So, you are a beginner stick with the machine and 1 bingo card.
Side games are plentiful here, from Money Train, All the marbles, Coyote Ugly, Popeye, and Golden State each playing $ 500-​$ 1000
They have a pretty extensive food bar and FREE coffee for those that need the caffeine.
Bring a seat cushion because with all the side games and bonus games you will be there for 3.5 hours. Make friends quick because you might need that extra help if you are Hell bent in playing all 3 cards and the machine.
The Bingo Hall is spacious and you are pretty much find a sit even if you are like me and come in 10 minutes before the start of the game. There’s plently of parking space outside, as this place is located on a private lot shared with other stores in the area. It can get hecktic when leaving as everyone rushes out at the same time, it feels like you were leaving a ball park.
I didn’t win this time, but this hall is open 7 days a week. So if you are a bingo manic and don’t mind spending 3.5 hours there. This is your place. Small amount of money invested with a potential of a large pay out.

Ghetto faboulous lol thats all Im gonna say… I never win, its always packed in there and its gross… But on that note the food they serve there is pretty good I enjoy it everytime… The staff in the food area are super sweet I love those lil ladys!!! So the food area I give 5 stars and the bingo hall get’s no loooveee!

$ 35 dollars for the laptop and 10 $ 1000 games. The scrathchers are fun especially knowing that the chance of hitting one is pretty good.

Jason-​I read your review and I just wanted to give you my opinion as to Good/​lucky bingo halls, so here it goes.
In the East Bay, if you like Foothill also known as Keds. My bet is you will love Gilman Bingo in. It’s a way better deal for your money; trust me I shopped and compared and the winner is Gilman! They have the most $ 1000 jackpots and on some of there special days (marathons) the jackpots are more than a $ 1000. Don’t get me wrong though, you will still find me at Keds. It all just depends on which place feels lucky to me on that day.
In the South Bay-​You will find me at Inner City Bingo on Villa Street in Mt. View, with the best dam food I’ve ever tasted in a bingo hall! It’s definitely not the same deal as the East Bay as far as the price otherwise know as «the buy-​in» but in comparison to the other halls in the South Bay this one is the best deal for your money. BINGO!

I went for the first time during the week of my birthday in early December because my mom kept telling me about how its free to play during your birthday week and I’m not one to turn down free anything. I went with some hesitation because I kept imagining a musty room full of old people playing a boring game. To my surprise it turned out to be nothing like that. Immediately I noticed the amount of younger folks that worked there and that were playing as well. Really this has to be like the blue collar united nations or something, I mean there were folks from all ages and ethnicity’s and everyone I talked to was super friendly. Another great surprise was the food, never in my life would I have expected the chicken wings at a bingo hall to be some of the best wings I ever had. I’ve been back to this spot several times now and have even won a few games. Good folks, bomb chicken wings and several $ 1000 jackpots, how could I not love this place? Just like Chris from the bingo hall says «We have the best prices and biggest jackpots in town, we ask that you please shop and compare!!!» He’s talking to you Durant Square…

I played bing there a couple of times and never won but I did notice that there are a LOT of mulitple winners there. Durant Square is much better — see my review for that one!

I laughed when my brother told me he was going to play bingo. I thought geez, I know you’re getting old but NOT that old! He finally got me to go play and man I must say I had a delightful time. It’s not like the old bingo where you gotta dab every single square. This is the high class, sophisticated bingo with machines that resemble lap tops and a calculator keyboard. It’s all automated and you get to play like 750 cards!
You also get to purchase side games. These games can make you or break you. At $ 1 for scratcher like tickets, you can get a handful of bunk tickets or get additional boards to play, or even win an instant prize. I actually played tonight and hit two bingos! This spot is on fire. The first bingo I had to share the $ 250 prize with 17 others. A whopping $ 13 per person. Hey, it’s better than not winning. The second bingo I won $ 72, the $ 250 was chopped 3 ways. Oh well, it’s crowded what do you expect? Heck, even my dad hit a bingo tonight. He had to chop his winnings too, but only one other person it. $ 125 ain’t bad at all.
The food stand is also pretty good. I think it’s called Door Prize Snack Bar. It’s the usual greasy spoon but they offer a lot of different specials. It’s on a rotating menu so not the same specials are offered each night.
