D1 Club is a private members casino on Lower Dorset Street in Dublin 1. It is most relevant to visitors looking for a broad mix of poker, live table games and electronic gaming rather than a slots-only venue. The practical details matter here: the general casino floor and live tables operate on different schedules, membership is required, and first-time visitors should arrive with valid photo ID.
If you are still comparing venues rather than researching D1 specifically, start with the Casinos in Dublin directory. For broader advice on choosing a venue and planning the night, use the complete Dublin casino guide.
What games can you play at D1 Club Casino?
D1 is one of the more varied casino-style clubs in Dublin. Its current operator information lists live table games, cash poker, slots and electronic roulette.
Live table games
The live gaming area includes Blackjack, Roulette, Dice/Craps, 3 Card Poker and Punto Banco. Live table availability can vary during the night, so a particular game should not be treated as guaranteed simply because the live floor is open.
Slots and electronic roulette
The casino also operates slots and electronic roulette. These open earlier than the live-table floor, which makes D1 relevant to visitors who want electronic gaming before the evening live games begin.
Poker at D1 Club
Poker is one of D1’s clearest points of difference. The club currently promotes cash poker and publishes information for both Texas Hold’em and Omaha. Current operator information states that cash poker runs from 7pm to 6am.
Tournaments, leagues and special events are more time-sensitive than the general poker-room opening hours. If a particular tournament or cash game is the reason for your visit, check the schedule on the day rather than assuming it runs every night.
D1 Club opening hours
The current published schedule is:
| Area | Current published hours |
|---|---|
| Casino / electronic gaming | 9am–6am daily |
| Live table games | 7pm–6am daily |
| Cash poker | 7pm–6am |
D1 is therefore not a 24-hour casino. Current published hours show a daily closure between 6am and 9am. Opening information is time-sensitive, so confirm it before making a special late-night journey.
Membership, ID and age requirements
D1 operates as a private members club. Membership is currently described as free, but admission is still subject to the club’s rules and management approval.
- Minimum age: 18.
- ID: government-issued photo identification is required for prospective members.
- Online membership form: the current form specifically accepts a passport or driving licence for the ID upload.
- Membership: registration is required before using the club’s facilities.
- Biometric check: the club’s published rules currently state that members sign by biometric finger scan.
For an international visitor, carrying an original passport is the simplest way to avoid uncertainty around identification.
What is the D1 Club dress code?
The published dress code is smart casual. D1 does not publish a long fashion checklist in its club rules, so it is better not to invent one. Clean, presentable clothing is the sensible default, and visitors who are unsure about a specific item should check before travelling.
The club rules also allow management to refuse entry, including where a member appears intoxicated.
Food, drinks and live sport
D1 is more than a gaming floor. The venue currently promotes a bar and restaurant, live sport on multiple televisions, and food and drink for players. Its site also states that complimentary food and drink are available to players.
This makes the venue more practical for a long poker or live-table session than a gaming room with no meaningful break area. Exact menus and any event-night offering can change, so they should not be treated as permanent features of this guide.
Where is D1 Club Casino?
D1 Club is at 63 Lower Dorset Street, Dublin 1, D01 F5X7, north of the main O’Connell Street shopping and tourist core. It is a different location proposition from venues around Grafton Street and Dublin 2.
If location is the deciding factor, compare D1 with the other city-centre options in the Dublin casino directory. If you are building a wider evening around the casino, our guide to pubs near Dublin casinos is the next useful step.
Can you take photos inside D1 Club?
No. D1’s current club rules state that photography is not permitted on the premises. That is worth knowing before arrival, particularly because searches for D1 Club photos can create the impression that visitors are free to photograph the gaming floor themselves.
Use official or editorially supplied venue images when evaluating the space rather than planning to take your own photographs inside.
