The robbers walked into the Mecca Bingo in Breightmet at about 19:00 BST on Sunday and threatened staff, demanding they hand over money.
A large number of people were in the hall at the time but no-one was injured, police said.
The men left with a large quantity of cash and police believe they escaped in a black Ford Mondeo saloon car.
