Whether you&#8217;re with friends or kids, here are some suggestions for a fun Vegas day of play that doesn&#8217;t involve gambling. You can drive or take an Uber\/Lyft. Let&#8217;s start with a meal. A locals favorite is Blueberry Hill. Best pancakes ever. It&#8217;s an extensive menu offering breakfast, lunch and dinner. Two locations open 24 hours and two open 6am to 9pm. For a coffee, drive through Dutch Bros before or after the meal. Many locations throughout town.<\/p><figure id=\"attachment_1738\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1738\" style=\"width: 211px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1738\" src=\"https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Glow-in-dark-Mini-Golf-224x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"211\" height=\"282\" srcset=\"https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Glow-in-dark-Mini-Golf-224x300.jpg 224w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Glow-in-dark-Mini-Golf-766x1024.jpg 766w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Glow-in-dark-Mini-Golf-768x1027.jpg 768w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Glow-in-dark-Mini-Golf-1149x1536.jpg 1149w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Glow-in-dark-Mini-Golf-1532x2048.jpg 1532w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Glow-in-dark-Mini-Golf-100x134.jpg 100w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Glow-in-dark-Mini-Golf-150x201.jpg 150w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Glow-in-dark-Mini-Golf-200x267.jpg 200w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Glow-in-dark-Mini-Golf-300x401.jpg 300w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Glow-in-dark-Mini-Golf-450x602.jpg 450w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Glow-in-dark-Mini-Golf-600x802.jpg 600w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Glow-in-dark-Mini-Golf-900x1203.jpg 900w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Glow-in-dark-Mini-Golf-scaled.jpg 1915w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 211px) 100vw, 211px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1738\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Twilight Zone Glow Golf<\/figcaption><\/figure><p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: var( --e-global-color-text ); text-align: var(--text-align); text-transform: inherit;\"><strong>If you&#8217;re a Twilight Zone<\/strong> fan, or even if you&#8217;re not, check out the 18-hole glow-in-the-dark mini golf course at the old Bally&#8217;s hotel on Flamingo. It&#8217;s now called the Horseshoe Hotel. There&#8217;s a large self parking garage. $18 for 1-4 hours, $20 for 4-24 hours. Once you&#8217;re walking into the hotel from garage you&#8217;ll find yourself at a bit of a fork in the road, The Paris Hotel is straight ahead, the Horseshoe is to your right.. Walk by the shops, head through the casino \u00a0and walk to the back. You&#8217;ll see the Glow-in-the-Dark course on your left. It helps if you&#8217;re a fan of the classic TV show as they play scenes from various episodes. This is indoors and not a huge course like you&#8217;re probably used to but it&#8217;s challenging to play in the dark, even with a glowing ball. There&#8217;s a food court at the back on same level and to your right is a decent arcade. So if you&#8217;re with kids this will keep you busy for awhile.\u00a0<\/span>If you need some air, walk out the door near food court and use signal to walk across busy Flamingo by Batista&#8217;s Hole in the Wall Italian eatery. It&#8217;s been there a thousand years. Just keep walking and you&#8217;ll see the Linq, that&#8217;s the promenade with a variety of restaurants and shops as well as the High Roller ride. The\u00a0ferris wheel-type ride takes 30 minutes to complete one revolution and has 28 cabins.\u00a0<\/p><ul><li><strong>Blueberry Hill, Hash House A Go Go, Gordon Ramsay&#8217;s Fish &#8216;n Chips<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Honolulu Cookies, Ghirardelli Chocolate, Cafe Belle Madeleine Paris Hotel<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Glow-in-the-Dark Mini Golf, Horseshoe Arcade, Linq Promenade, Neon Museum, Sphere<\/strong><\/li><\/ul><figure id=\"attachment_1735\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1735\" style=\"width: 239px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1735\" src=\"https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Linq-268x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"239\" height=\"268\" srcset=\"https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Linq-268x300.jpg 268w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Linq-916x1024.jpg 916w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Linq-768x858.jpg 768w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Linq-1374x1536.jpg 1374w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Linq-1832x2048.jpg 1832w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Linq-100x112.jpg 100w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Linq-150x168.jpg 150w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Linq-200x224.jpg 200w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Linq-300x335.jpg 300w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Linq-450x503.jpg 450w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Linq-600x671.jpg 600w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Linq-900x1006.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 239px) 100vw, 239px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1735\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Linq<\/figcaption><\/figure><p>\u00a0<strong>The High Roller sits<\/strong> about 550 feet above the strip and offers some great views. If you&#8217;re over 21 the bars are too numerous to mention. They will check for ID. A favorite eatery here is Hash House A Go Go, upstairs in the LINQ hotel. Eclectic menu, ridiculous portions. Only open until 3 pm unless it&#8217;s Friday or Saturday, then until 9pm. If you&#8217;d rather try some great fish &#8216;n chips, check out famous chef Gordon Ramsay&#8217;s place. Not cheap, two fish &#8216;n chip plates with fries and a fountain drink for two will set you back about $60. The good ol&#8217; days of cheap eats in Vegas have pretty well gone the way of dinner shows. Plan on a line at Gordon&#8217;s and you&#8217;ll likely have to eat standing as seating is limited. This is mainly takeaway. If you&#8217;re craving dessert Honolulu Cookies has the only location in Vegas at the Linq. Same with Ghirardelli. Grab some chocolate or one of a variety of ice cream treats.<\/p><figure id=\"attachment_1737\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1737\" style=\"width: 205px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1737\" src=\"https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Sphere-face-263x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"205\" height=\"234\" srcset=\"https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Sphere-face-263x300.jpg 263w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Sphere-face-898x1024.jpg 898w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Sphere-face-768x875.jpg 768w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Sphere-face-1348x1536.jpg 1348w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Sphere-face-1797x2048.jpg 1797w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Sphere-face-100x114.jpg 100w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Sphere-face-150x171.jpg 150w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Sphere-face-200x228.jpg 200w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Sphere-face-300x342.jpg 300w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Sphere-face-450x513.jpg 450w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Sphere-face-600x684.jpg 600w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Sphere-face-900x1026.jpg 900w, https:\/\/adviceparadise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Sphere-face.jpg 1954w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 205px) 100vw, 205px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1737\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Sphere (Saying Goodnight)<\/figcaption><\/figure><p><strong>There&#8217;s also a cafe<\/strong> in the Paris hotel you could check out when walking back to your car.

Also a fun one-of-a-kind attraction is the Neon Museum, in the downtown area. This is where all the old hotel and other neon signs go to rest. They offer tours day and night.
