Reviews and Ratings for Local Casinos Near Me, You and All UK Gamblers

Scott Lawson Written By Scott Lawson Published on 19.12.2019 Last Updated on 02.07.2024

When I look for casinos near me, I want to find all of the options easily. To help you find the same, I have developed an interactive map that you can use to sort through all the local casinos UK players can choose from, plus general information on open hours, dress codes, age of entry, laws, and gaming options.

This page will provide you an overview of what to expect from the different UK local casinos, as well as some general rules about the region’s gambling laws. We’ve included a very helpful interactive map to help you find your location and search from there, or potentially find some options that are worth a road trip.

Map of Local Casinos

As you might expect, the range of UK local casinos within a reasonable distance of you will depend on where you are located. If you are in London, the Big Smoke has an excellent selection of establishments.

If you are in one of the country’s other cities, you will usually find at least one decent house to visit. However, if you are in the Welsh countryside or in the Highlands, you should probably expect that a bit of a journey is required. Here is an interactive map of the best UK local casinos.

Opening Hours and Holidays

The opening hours for UK local casinos will depend on a few things. In general, though, casinos are open longer hours than bars or pubs. You will generally find that you can gamble between midday and around 5am. There are establishments that are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, although these are less common.

UK law prohibits casinos from being open on Christmas Day, but this is the only enforced holiday that operators must take. If you wish to gamble on December 25th, then, you will need to turn to one of the best online casinos instead. Some locations may close on other holidays, but many a UK casino near me choose to stay open on all days apart from Christmas.

Noteworthy Locations

Some UK local casinos have gained notoriety for among British punters for their size, age or exclusivity. For example, the Grosvenor casinos and Aspers casinos are well known for being some of the best places to visit when all the pubs and bars close.

Others like the Genting Crockfords and The Ritz are famous for having a high priced membership and an inability to get through the door without a massive bankroll. Some of the most well-known and visited UK casino near me locations are detailed here:

There are so many more local casinos UK than just these; consider this list a taste test of what you can find out there. What’s important to understand from this list is that there are huge variances in the types of establishments you can find, whether the incredibly fancy or the kind you can get into wearing a T-shirt. No matter which you prefer, you can choose one of the options for casinos near me.

Typical Game Options at Casinos Near Me

Game selection at local land-based casinos can vary wildly, something which is based on a number of factors. For instance, a large establishment can hold a greater number of slot machines and tables than a small one.

Meanwhile, casinos in cities and more populous areas will likely be home to more options than those on the outskirts. Thankfully though, for the most part, you can expect an excellent range of games at your local UK casino.

Common Games at Local UK Casinos
  • A close-up of a slot machine.1/3 Slot Machines Slot machines are by and far the most popular gaming option at land-based casinos in the UK as the dazzling displays capture the attention of countless gamblers. Local casinos will always have a selection of the machines, though the options will differ from one location to the next. Commonly will be classic fruit machines, complemented by modern video slots.
  • A close-up of a roulette wheel.2/3 Roulette Roulette has always been seen in the casinos near me as a bit of a fancier game of chance than slot machines, allowing players the opportunity to make a choice about which number or colour they predict as the winner. There’s no strategy or skill involved, making it easy for anyone to participate. Choose your lucky spot on the table and watch the wheel spin.
  • Two Aces of Hearts and red casino chips on a green felt background.3/3 Card Games Card games like poker and blackjack are near-synonymous with gambling for many a UK punter, particularly those with a good head for numbers. Not all establishments will offer poker rooms or baccarat tables, though all of them will have at least a few tables for blackjack and Casino War. You can enjoy a classic type of card gambling in a social situation.

However, at the end of the day, online casinos will always have more options than their land-based counterparts. There are a couple of reasons for this, the most obvious being the simple difference between housing games in a physical space versus hosting them online at real money casinos.

Operators on the internet have no physical limitations to contend with, and can therefore continue to add to their libraries indefinitely. To get a good idea of the volume you can expect, head on over to our slots page.

Popular games at local UK casinos:

Another aspect of playing in a local casino that might be of interest to you is the existence of poker tournaments. Though they’re not available as standard, many local casinos host semi-regular poker tournaments, at which you can stand to win quite a tidy sum.

As with all other aspects of game availability, this will depend on the size and location of your chosen local UK casino. Check social media accounts and official websites for any tournament information.

Entertainment

There’s a lot more to casinos than simply gambling. Though many of us flock to the tables and slot machines, you’ll never be at a loss for entertainment if you decide to take a gameplay break. Just as Las Vegas is as well-known for its stellar stage shows as it is its gambling, so too do local UK casinos deliver when it comes to exciting entertainment options.

Some of the UK’s biggest casinos provide venues for awe-inspiring dance acts and electric musical performances. In addition to shows, there are often scheduled events like competitions and tournaments.

You can also expect to find a variety of fine dining options and great bars throughout the nation’s casinos. So whether you’re serious about your gaming, or just a casual visitor, you’ll find more than enough to keep you occupied during your stay.

Entry and Dress Code

Thankfully UK players only have one legal gambling age to remember. 18-year-olds are permitted to enter land-based casinos and to play at online casinos (with valid ID, of course). Accepted forms of ID are usually limited to driver’s licences and passports.

Whether you’re 18 or older, we recommend that you always have ID on your person when attempting to visit a gambling establishment. It doesn’t matter how old you look, you need to be prepared to play by the rules.

Speaking of playing by the rules, sometimes it simply isn’t enough to be of age and carrying your ID. Oftentimes, you will also be required to adhere to the casino’s dress code. Now, nobody is expecting you to stroll up looking like James Bond, but there is a certain standard to be met.

This will vary depending on the location and atmosphere of the establishment, but typically the most casual attire you should be wearing is a smart pair of jeans, a button-down shirt and a nice pair of shoes. Women will usually be fine with wearing smart-casual dresses or skirts.

Licensing Regulations and Laws

If you’ve played at an online casino in the past, you might already be familiar with the UK Gambling Commission. The UKGC is best known online as the official licensing body for remote operators in the UK, but you might be surprised to learn that it is the state regulatory body for all gambling establishments in the nation. Naturally, this includes licensing land-based local casinos, as well as all bookies, bingo halls and arcades.

As a resident of the UK, you’re remarkably lucky. The UKGC is one of the strictest regulators when it comes to player safety, yet you will find that all casino games are legal and accessible to play throughout the country. This also counts for trusted online casinos.

As with all public premises, you will not be permitted to smoke within your chosen casino. However, much like local pubs, you can expect to find a designated smoking area at your chosen local casino.

What is the legal age of entry?

The legal age of entry across all casinos in the UK is 18. 18-year-olds are permitted to play any game available in the casino, as well as place live bets on various sporting events - location dependent, of course.

What is the drinking age at the casino?

The drinking age in UK casinos is the same as it is in all other establishments throughout the country. You must be aged 18 or older to purchase or consume alcohol in the United Kingdom, and this law is recognized and upheld in all UK casinos.

What days are casinos open?

Many of the UK's largest and most popular casinos stay open 364 days a year, with Christmas day being the only time they close. However, this might vary depending on location. You will always find specific casino opening hours listed on the casino's website.

What do I need to get into the casino?

In order to enter any casino, you will need a valid photo ID (either a driver's licence or passport). In addition to this, you will need to conform to the casino's dress code. This can be checked beforehand on the casino's website.

Conclusion

Overall, UK players can enjoy a high standard of local casinos – depending on where they live, that is. Naturally, the closer you are to a big city, the better your options are. London or London-adjacent players will have the best picks of the lot, which is rather disappointing for gamblers living outside of the nation’s capital.

Players in the midlands and the north, however, don’t fare too badly, with a good smattering of establishments outside of the major cities as well as within. For those who live a little too far out of the way for land-based options, online casinos may be an ideal alternative.

There are far more options for gambling on the internet, regardless of your location – so much so that it can be hard to pick one. Check out this selection of the top 10 online casinos for leading sites.
