Bailiwick Gastropub - Orleans Hotel & Casino

Yes, Bailiwick Gastropub can be a great date-night spot. Guests describe a warm, low-lit atmosphere with attentive service and live acoustic music on weekends that many find romantic. The menu balances shareable small plates and hearty entrees (prime rib, fish & chips, pizzas) so you can create a relaxed, multi-course meal. If you want a quieter table, ask for the glass‑divided room or request an early seating; weekends with live music are livelier.

Portions at Bailiwick tend to be generous, many guests say dishes are large and good for sharing. Appetizers and ‘munchies’ (like Firecracker Shrimp, nachos and jumbo pretzel) are substantial, and several entrees are noted as big enough that one serving can feed two. If you prefer lighter plates, order a few small bites or split mains.

Bailiwick Gastropub is open daily from 4:00 PM to 10:00 PM. They also run a Happy Hour Monday–Thursday from 4:00 PM–6:00 PM. If you’re planning to visit on a holiday or for a special menu, it’s a good idea to call ahead since they sometimes run seasonal or holiday offerings.

If you need accessible seating or specific accommodations, call ahead so staff can confirm availability and best seating options.

It depends on what you want: go Friday or Saturday evenings (6–9pm) for live entertainment and a lively vibe; arrive early on game nights if you want a sports atmosphere.
