Open when you arrive

Open around the clock

Whatever hour the shuttle drops you, the casino floor is running. Its doors never close, at any hour, on any of the 365 days of the year. The live table games, too, run around the clock. Constant Grind, the café in the Marketplace, pours coffee and serves pastries and house-made gelato 24/7, every day. Holiday changes are not published, so if your night falls on a holiday, call the resort at 1-613-822-8668 first.

Where the bars pour

The Council Oak bar pours from 5 PM to 11 PM on Wednesday and Thursday. Sunday hours are 4:30 PM to 10:30 PM, while Friday and Saturday service lasts from 5 PM until midnight. The Marketplace Bar, a cocktail bar just off the floor, opens only on Friday and Saturday, 5 PM to midnight.

Center Bar occupies the floor's central spot, inside Hard Rock Cafe, and live music plays there on Friday and Saturday. Two of the resort's own pages list different hours for it. So this guide gives none, and a call to 1-613-822-8668 is the way to check.

On the gaming floor

More than 1,500 slot machines share the floor with 40 live table games. Among the tables are blackjack, craps, roulette and baccarat. There is also a new baccarat room, electronic table games and a VIP High Limit Gaming area. No poker room is listed.

The house holds a built-in edge in every casino game, which means players taken together lose over time. Set a spending limit before you leave home, and a time to head for the last shuttle.

The Rock Shop and lottery

The Rock Shop sells merchandise and handles lottery every day from 11 AM to 11 PM. Winning OLG lottery tickets are paid out up to $999.90. No gift cards are sold there. Lottery sales stop at the same hour the shop closes. If your shuttle drops you after 11 PM, the shop has already closed, and it opens again at 11 AM the next day.

Questions

Short answers

Is there anywhere to eat a full meal on a Tuesday evening?

Yes, two kitchens are open. Hard Rock Cafe serves until 10 PM, and YOUYU Noodle Bar until 1 AM. Brick'd is closed, and Council Oak serves dinner only from Wednesday to Saturday.

Does baccarat have a room of its own?

Yes, the resort lists a new baccarat room alongside its 40 live table games, electronic tables and VIP High Limit Gaming area.

What time do lottery sales end at the Rock Shop?

Why are Center Bar's hours missing from this page?

Two of the resort's own pages give different hours for Center Bar, so Night Transfer prints none. A call to 1-613-822-8668 is the way to check before you set out.
