The Quarters Travel Plaza & Casino
Located in a beautiful swampy part of Louisiana, The Quarters Travel Plaza & Casino offers year-round access to electronic games as well as a live racetrack that operates part of the year. This Opelousas venue shows simulcast betting and features Vegas-style dining and entertainment. The Quarters is open every day, year-round, from 10 AM to 1 AM. On Fridays and Saturdays, the property stays open until 4 in the morning.
As the only casino located in the heart of Louisiana’s largest city, The Quarters is one of the major venues for gambling in a state that has a good number of them. Some two dozen casinos and racetracks are open for business in Louisiana; The Quarters is one of a small number of those properties offering slots and video poker, racing, and live entertainment all under one roof.
Take note – parking at The Quarters is free, provided visitors enter the property through the entrance at Louisiana and Central. Self-parking and valet are available, neither of which costs a dime.

Games
The Quarters is host to 700+ slot games, including licensed theme and progressive titles.
Table gaming is only allowed at tribal operations in the state of Louisiana. Because The Quarters isn’t located on tribal land, fans of traditional table games may feel a little left out – the casino hosts favorites like roulette, craps, and blackjack, but only as electronic skill games.
Restaurants & Bars
The Quarters offers two places for customers to eat – a food court, featuring local cuisine as well as a deli and ice cream shop, and The Crown Room, a high-end restaurant with a dress code and waiting list. Reservations are required and can be hard to come by on weekends and during the holidays.
Other Facilities
This Louisiana racino also hosts a space called The Patio, where visitors can sit in the middle of the racetrack and watch the Louisiana sunset against the swampland backdrop. Visitors to The First Turn Lounge can grab a cold beer and step out on The Patio for the beautiful view or the sound of the horses racing past and the crowd roaring.
