We’ll have DJs and drink specials each night. We’re going to do fun things that really cater to our local crowd like quizzo nights, karaoke, dartboard tournaments, scuffle board tournaments, a lot of fun things.

“We’re going to activate this space as much as we can. “We want this to be Chester’s and Delco’s bar where you want to hang out - that’s the vibe we’re going for,” Albrecht told the crowd before they entered. Located in the new and improved space above the casino floor, O’Sheas is filled with six table games, 40 slot machines, a full-service bar, crowd-favorite arcade games, and on-demand food through Caesars Eats.Īlbrecht said he hopes Harrah’s patrons will have a really good time at O’Sheas. “We want this to feel like Delco’s bar,” Albrecht stated after cutting the ribbon to officially open the new pub and let everyone inside. While music blared and ladies in glitzy outfits handed out free T-shirts and other fun incentives, Chris Albrecht, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Harrah’s Philadelphia, took the giant pair of scissors in hand. Friday grand opening, hoping to be among the first inside O’Sheas, the popular Las Vegas pub and casino that chose Harrah’s in Chester for its first East Coast location. We are really disappointed in Harrahs who seem to disregard the health concerns of their nonsmoking patrons and employees.CHESTER - Customers inside Harrah’s Philadelphia began lining up an hour ahead of the announced 4 p.m. We are vaccinated but my husband is immune compromised so we aren’t willing to take that risk. If this is correct, then there is a potential that unvaccinated patrons could not only be exhaling dangerous secondhand smoke from their lungs but also could be exhaling Covid aerosols. Studies have shown that the casino ventilation systems, although highly efficient, do not take care of secondhand smoke. Secondhand smoke could be potentially more dangerous in this casino because the surrounding area of Chester, who make up some of the casino patrons, has such a low percentage of vaccinated residents. My husband and I find the smoking unacceptable and will not go back. Secondhand smoke is substantially worse in Pennsylvania because the regulations allow 50% of the casino floor to be smoking. They said to their dismay, smoking was allowed. I approached two security guards and asked them if smoking was permitted. We arrived at Harrahs and were shocked to see people smoking.

We love to gamble and went to Harrahs because their website stated it was still following a no smoking policy and we also called the contact number and were told that there was no smoking on the casino floor. My husband and I went to Harrahs Philadelphia located in Chester on Wednesday.
