Run very well, great cause. AC works great. Good people to visit with. Go have fun!! Great place to win some money!

Great place to play bingo! My 1st time playing binho here and Mike the manager was very helpful.

This place used to be fun but now you have to deal with people bringing in their non-service animals (this isnt a dog park) , people soliciting players with their homemade food (scary) and very aggressive players that fight and nobody stops them. My group has had to find other places to play :-( read more

That snack bar is horrible, the hotdog was the worst I've ever seen or had !! Dry old cold bun winner was overcooked to the point of tasting like dry hard meat !! , I had asked for the chili dog , wow 2 teaspoons of some disgusting liquid looked like slime !! Took one bite and gagged at the awful taste !! Dumped it in the trash !! $8 in the trash !! The staff at the bingo hall are great people, bingo was fun read more

I love this place! Mike the manager is so nice and the other Mike super cool too. Eva also works there and she is wonderful. There is a sense of community for bingo and its really fun. This is some serious bingo so don't come here and be disruptive or rude. Now they have parking lot bingo on Sundays (Covid) and its still great. Best place for bingo in Los Angeles. Hands down. read more

This place hosts Bingo and does a wonderful job of it. We went there for the first time and played last Friday night. I brought my daughter along and we had a great time despite not winning a single game :). We will be back to play again soon!!!! read more

This is your typical bingo hall with lots of pull tab madness and plenty of places to sit. It's pretty cheap to play, like a full buy in to play all the games including the specials it's $50 and that's for about six hours worth of bingo! I was literally there from 1-6:30 on a Sunday and I played the five early birds. The payouts are $250 but there are games that pay $1500, $1000 and $500, you have to be lucky. This is what I've found, when it's your bingo, your numbers come back to back. If you like playing bingo you will like it but what I didn't like is seeing a caller playing bingo when not calling and he won! It was just a little weird but didn't know this place was here. They are open Friday, Saturday and Sunday. They call slow, I think it's because people can play up to seven cards at a time and they don't want you to miss your bingo, I guess but I'm talking real slow. The wait time in between numbers was almost painful and I was playing three cards. If I go back I would play 4 or 5 to increase my chances. Oh they have a snack bar but they fry foods so the hall smells, how shall I say this, like hot oil or greasy. read more

Everyone was SUPER nice and helpful while I was there. I went twice, on a Friday and then again on a Sunday. I was visiting from out of the state while I on vacation and I had fun for sure! They play a lot differently than we do in TX but I still had a good time. They definitely call the #s super fast, they play fewer cards on each sheet than I'm used to, the games are easy to understand and simple to get the hang of. However, I'd suggest buying only 1 or 2 packs at the most since they do call fast AND instead use whatever extra money you would've used on buying more cards to spend on "flash" pull tabs. All of the games here only pay $250/each (in the big TX our games pay $500 and $750 each). However, you're playing about 28 games or so each night. So it's possible to BINGO more than once (I saw several people win more than 1 game each time I went). The flash games, all $1 for one pull tab pay $1199 and up, some were even $1500 I believe!! The thing with the flash games is that not all of them will have #s for you to play. Meaning, those are no good and trash. You have to have flash pull tabs that have actual Bingo #s for you to daub in order for them to be good. You can bring your own food and drinks, they have plenty of security on site, you can use your credit card (YAY!) :-) and there's tons of parking! This alone is worth going since parking in most of LA is a true pain and hard to come by! I'd definitely recommend going, even if only once... you never know, you might just get lucky and win big $$$ ! read more

It was our first time and we were confused but everyone was super helpful and friendly. A big thank thank you to Mike that took the time to really explain patterns to my friend and I. There is a lot going on so I suggest going online and familiarizing yourself with bingo terms and then pay attention. They call the numbers at a good pace. We played 30+ games for over 6 hours. People around us won ...some multiple times. It was smoke free. Nicely air conditioned on one of the hottest days of the year. They sell food. There is security. And they take credit cards. What more can you ask for? Can't wait to go back. Its for a great cause too so I felt even better about gambling. read more

This place was fun at one point, coming from a loyal player. I've already witnessed a few altercation with short Mike (Manager) and the players. He's aggressive, rude, biased and bluntly racist. A couple weeks ago while I was making my way towards the front to buy in, Mike was attacking and harassing a customer about allegations that supposedly had happened. The lady was in front of me when he suddenly said "I got a complaint from a couple players that you were threatening them and cursing at them which made them uncomfortable a few weeks ago, and I'm in your face to let you know that shit wasn't right and don't do it again you hear me"!? The African American woman said in defense "Mike, what are you talking about? I nevered threaten anyone or have I cursed anyone that is all a lie and I don't think it's fair to say such things I know I didn't do and I have witnesses that I didn't say nor do what you claim these people told you I've done".. Mike goes on to say "Well you did and they said that you was waving your arms around screaming at them about kicking their asses in the parking lot", the black lady said in her defense " Mike I've been a player here for over 20 years and now all of a sudden these allegations are formed against me? I don't understand and your not being fair right now. I find it hard to believe that when I reported being racially attacked from another player simply because I wanted to sit at the table like everyone else you, done nothing about it and ignored my complaint I made against them. Where is this coming from? Why are you doing this to me because I'm black? The woman was crying tears at this point, while the entire bingo hall watched and Mike the manager continued slamming her with false allegations and none with proof nor the plaintiffs. I was im total shocked and felt terrible for this poor woman, and because of Mike's biased, and racist behavior I decided to leave the hall that day.. You know this place is sad a lot of the times, the staff aren't professional, I've seen so much racial discrimination against African Americans here. I truly feel for them and I hope all is well with them, being a white woman myself, privilege for us goes a long way in at this bingo hall. God bless. read more

Been going to Cri Help Bingo Hall for over 21 years and still Love It! The Staff is Great and the manager Mike is so friendly and helpful to us. If we have any problems he is "Johnny on the spot for us and nobody can claims seats, tables,etc. I Love him and his wife Ava so Much! It's like a second home to me and they are not prejudiced at all! They treat all Races fair! I am a women of Color and know when someone is treating me unfairly and They Do Not Tolerate It. And too be so short "Mike, Wheels a lot of power, everyone listens to him especially his Staff of Volunteers" My only regret is I will be moving to the Pomona area in a few months. I have a car but do not drive the freeways so what will i do without 40 games or more of bingo each session! Well that freeway is looking pretty Harmless to me Now! One girlfriend drives from that area and I will ask her if I can pay for gas to ride with her. May God Bless my favorite Bingo Hall and Family! I have more friends there than on the outside! And for those who think only Stupid people play bingo it's been proven Bingo players have less Dementia than average. And I have a Master's degree in Law and even though feeling older checking out several Law Schools in the Inland Empire, gonna miss ya'll.

this is more of a reply i've been playing at cri help since 2008, it's my favorite. i am black and can feel a racist without a word spoken. mike is definitely not a racist, but he's a no nonsense person and deals with conflict quickly and firmly. mike and the staff are friendly, and caring. i feel safe with mostly retired policemen as security. rachet people are dealt with firmly. the players are decent, respectful people. read more
