Casinos near Erie
Erie sits in the state's northwest corner on Lake Erie, and Presque Isle Downs & Casino is south of the city in Summit Township, on Perry Highway. This thoroughbred racetrack casino has a little over 1,500 slots, 31 table games and a sportsbook, but no poker room and no hotel, so overnight guests are sent to local hotels. For food there's LBV Steakhouse and Churchill's Bourbon & Brew, which puts on free live music Friday nights.
