Ellis Island Casino & Brewery
Casino in Nevada, United States
About
The Ellis Island Casino & Brewery is located near the Las Vegas Strip in Paradise, Nevada. It was opened by Frank Ellis in 1968, originally as a bar and restaurant called the Village Pub. It was renamed Ellis Island in 1985, and a casino was added four years later. Gary Ellis took over the property in 1990, and it remains a family business in contrast to most Las Vegas casinos.
Ellis Island includes 10,506 sq ft (976.0 m2) of gaming space, as well as several restaurants. It is popular among locals for its cheap food and karaoke bar. In 2014, Ellis Island purchased an adjacent Super 8 hotel, which opened in 1989. The hotel was rebranded under the Ellis Island name, giving the property 301 rooms. A brewery was part of the Ellis Island property from 1998 to 2022, and was demolished for additional casino space.
