Bingo Cafè
An archived review of a bingo site that has closed
Bingo Cafè is no longer trading and nothing on this page is an offer, a recommendation or a link. It is kept as a record of a review this site published when the brand was running, which was in the 2000s.
Any bonus, jackpot, card price or percentage quoted below is a quotation from that old review and is not a current offer. It could not be claimed if you wanted to: the site is gone. Bonus terms at licensed British sites have also changed since — playthrough is capped at ten times and a single offer may no longer mix bingo with casino games. What the terms mean now.
For sites that are trading and licensed, see the sites we have checked.
What it was
Bingo Cafè ran the same downloadable three-dimensional software as several other sites in this archive — players walked around a rendered hall, met other players, and played bingo, slots and video poker in it. Our review listed the games in detail: progressive bingo, jackpot bingo and ordinary rooms; Fruit Frenzy at 25 cents and Super Sevens at 50 cents on the slots; Slots of Bingo with a free spin feature; Cash Carousel with two bonus features; and Jacks or Better and Deuces Wild on the video poker.
It advertised live chat, support around the clock, chat games with bonus awards, and a registration offer of ten free bingo cards.
The software
The same downloadable 3D client.
What it tells you about the period
That game list is identical, title for title, to the one in our Jet Bingo review, which is how you can tell the two were the same platform under different names. Running several brands on one piece of software was already standard practice in the 2000s and it is still how British bingo works today — our guide to bingo networks explains what has and has not changed.
Why this page still exists
Most bingo sites from this period are gone, and the usual way to deal with their review pages is to delete them or to redirect them to something that pays. We have done neither. A review this site published is part of its record, and a reader who arrives from a twenty-year-old link deserves to find out what happened rather than to be redirected to an advertisement.
There are no commercial links on this page or anywhere in the archive. The full archive holds twenty-four of these.
