British Casino News: February 2008 Archives

I have put together a list of some of the more popular high street locations of Fruit Machine venues the likes of Quicksilver and Agora to try and make sense of the way that slot machines can be played in the UK high street.

Circus Casinos
A modern and dynamic casino destination for a good night out.

Circus casino claims to be a new experience and a new look in UK casinos offering contemporary surroundings, a lively and fun atmosphere, the latest gaming, the best in service and outstanding dining at their 110 Restaurants. All designed to ensure you have a stylish and perfect casino evening, every day of the week, in a modern and relaxed setting.

Maxims Casinos
For the most sophisticated casino experience in the UK today

Maxim Casino offers a sophisticated casino experience in the UK highstreet Stanely Casino's bigger brand although probably secondary to Crockfords. Maxims offers what they call high-class gaming, which includes service and top entertainment in sumptuous and intimate surroundings. Each with fine dining at our renowned Equations restaurants, Maxims offer good venues to game in style.

Mint Casinos
State of the art gaming in a great setting Mint is a relatively new highstreet brand and is meant to reflect the updated moderrn casino though slightly worse locations than a Maxims branded casino.

With 20 Mint casinos in the UK with a bigger emphasis on slots and fruit machines in a conducive atmosphere for gaming. Mint tries to ensure fewer distractions and the very best in service, eating and drinking, the Mint casino offers a great and easy evening out.

 

 

I have spent a lot of time this morning creating a list of all the UK Casino premises I could find for the UK surprisingly to me there are over 150 Casino locations in the UK I would have thought it would be far less.  The famous sit next to the not so famous and the new Aspers and others next to some of the older venues like Gala Tottenham Court Road.  Where we could find them we have put fax and telephone numbers in case you want to book anything special or make any arrangements.

A British casino based up North is predicted to attract up to 75,000 visitors a year.

When The Palace Casino opens on Thursday next to the existing Palace Bingo, it will take the investment of entrepreneur Patrick Duffy in the town's old Tesco site to more than £9m in five years.

Far from being daunted by competition for the new licence from Pleasure Beach boss Albert Jones for a larger casino in the area, Albert's consortium has already shown off plans for a £35m casino and leisure complex called The Edge, looking to transform a large swathe of the Golden Mile. Mr Duffy simply commented: "I have already shown I can deliver, investing nearly £1m in the town for every year I have been in business."

He said to meet the space criteria for a larger casino licence he would simply knock down two walls between the present Palacebingo and Palacecasino clubs to create a new gambling experince for the Yarmouth.
