Very disappointed. I am aiming this review directly to the Casino located within Coral Island, the arcade and over 18 amusements were brilliant however the Casino itself is the reason I am writing this review. Myself and 7 other friends travelled from south west Scotland for a day/night out to celebrate one of our number getting married in 3 weeks time. We arrived in Blackpool at roughly 11am and spent the late morning and afternoon at the pleasure beach (until 5pm). After spending almost 2 hours in traffic to get to our apartment we got ready to head out for a pre booked meal at 7.45pm. We had a lovely meal with, no more than 3, alcoholic beverages each. We proceeded to Coral Island to enjoy around 1 hour (planned) spending money we had set aside for this purpose. After around half an hour amongst the gaming machines we headed to the Casino in very good spirit. We entered the Casino in a sober, polite and quiet manner only to be refused entry immediately. The excuses given from the doorman were pathetic. Exact quotes are "we don't allow lads in groups in" "the football was on earlier" "you have clearly been drinking". He then proceeded to single out a member of our group, who had been up since 5am and spent a day on his feet, and said "your eyes are far too glazed to get in here". We then left disappointed, shocked and feeling very discriminated as this was planned in for our night. Obviously our night can't be adjusted now but hopefully this does not happen to other groups of "lads" in the future just because of the number in the group without proper evidence to refuse entry. After personally working over 7 years in a gambling establishment I can safely say we did not show any reason to be refused and the fact we were told because that we were a group of "lads" we were not allowed entry just shows the level of discrimination. Thoroughly disappointed
