Basic Buffet

If you are limited on the budget, arrange a basic buffet for your casino party. However, don’t sacrifice taste just for cutting costs. Choose simple and delicious food items that are easy on the wallet. Consider offering fish sticks, chicken fingers, cheese sticks, French fries and mushroom caps. Add a few dipping sauces and some side dishes.

Gourmet Buffet

Gourmet food is mostly found in big casinos. Gamblers, who are lucky enough to not lose all their dollars in the bets and win big, celebrate big by splurging. Help your gamblers feel like winners with lobster cheese puffs, mini turkey meatballs, artichoke and stuffed mushrooms and cheesy bacon bites. Your guests will love a gourmet buffet that has enough dishes to satisfy their taste buds.

Casino Buffet

If you want take your party to the extreme level, go with a casino-inspired buffet. Cut watermelon, honeydew and cantaloupe pieces in shapes of club and spade card suite. Make diamond and heart shaped finger sandwiches. Serve chocolate coins covered in foil for dessert.

Seafood Buffet

Seafood buffets are found at many casinos. You should plan a seafood buffet for your casino party only if your budget allows because seafood is expensive and it may break the bank if you are planning it for a large number of guests. Choose seafood finger foods dishes for this buffet. Arrange different types of shrimp dishes. Offer shrimp popper, shrimp rolls, shrimp cocktails and crunchy fried shrimps. Add chilli crab, crab curry, crab cake, crab rangoon and lobster thermidor. Offer different types of dipping sauces to augment the taste of the dishes.

Dessert Buffet

You can also plan a dessert buffet to go alongside other tasty treats. If you are inviting only a few guests at your casino party, you can make the desserts yourself. However, if you’re planning a big party, pay a bakery to prepare the desserts. Offer cheesecake pups, dipped ice cream sandwiches, frosty strawberry pops and mini molten cakes. Add fudge brownies and apple tarts and decorate them like cards.

Dried Beef

In America, dried beef is called jerky while in South Africa people call it Biltong. No matter what you call it, it’s an incredibly delicious table food. You can mix the taste up a bit by using different flavors. All that protein in the jerky will keep your guests’ energy high and they’ll keep playing and enjoying casino games without getting tired.

Pretzel Sticks

If you are allowing guests to eat while playing casino games, then pretzel sticks are the perfect item for your casino party. Place bowls of these tasty salty snacks on casino game tables so that your guests keep their mouths busy while playing poker or other casino games.

Cheese and Crackers

This is suitable for small scale casino parties. For instance, if you are planning to hold a casino party in your backyard with only a few guests, then you can add cheese and crackers to the food menu. You can top cheese and crackers with different varieties of cheese and other add-ons like smoked salmon, cocktail tomatoes and cucumber. These can be eaten easily and provide nutrients to your guests to keep their energy high.

Shrimp Cocktail

Popcorn shrimps are good for casino parties; however, if you want the guests to keep playing while they eat, then this isn’t a good choice because popcorn shrimps are too greasy. As an alternative, we suggest you add shrimp cocktail that’s easy to eat while playing casino table games.

Prime Rib

Whether you choose a casino buffet or opt for trays of food, prime rib can be a great addition to the food menu of your casino party. Keep thick slices in dishes or cut the prime rib into small chunks and serve at individual casino tables so that your guests can enjoy the tasty treat while playing their favorite casino games.

Cheese Ball

You can also serve dice shaped cheese balls at your casino party. You may think that assembling this appetizer is difficult, but it’s really not that hard. Simply cut cheese balls in a shape of a cube and transform them into a yummy dice with the help of olive dots.
