The Best Places in Birmingham for Live Casinos

The perfect blend of excitement, socialising and the chance to win big, casino gaming remains extremely popular throughout the world. Iconic casino classics, such as slots, blackjack and roulette, are staples of pop culture and instantly recognisable.

Britain’s comparatively liberal casino laws means some great venues are dotted throughout the UK. As one of the country’s biggest and most populous cities, Birmingham is home to several of these.

These are the best casinos in Birmingham to experience live casino gaming.

Grosvenor, Hill Street and Grosvenor, Broad Street

One of two venues in the city, the Grosvenor on Hill Street is larger and more popular. The live games on offer include roulette, blackjack, Punto Banco and three-card-poker.

There are also electronic roulette and slot machines as well as an unrivalled 150-seat card room with a private gaming area.

The restaurant contains a diverse menu with very reasonable prices. A three-course meal is available for £26.95 from Sunday to Thursday, priced at £34.95 on Friday and Saturday.

All major sporting events are shown in the bar and garner large crowds and a fun, vibrant atmosphere.

Grosvenor casinos also offer four unique entertainment packages: The All In, Game On, Fan Zone and Poker Hand experience. These range in price from £25 to £60 per person and each include several benefits to personalise your experience.

Free alcoholic drinks, money to spend, private rooms, reserved seating and a comprehensive how-to-play experience can be purchased across the packages.

The Grosvenor Poker Tour is the UK’s oldest, having been operating for 16 years. There are thousands to win in the various tournaments which are hosted throughout the country, occasionally visiting their Birmingham casinos.

Grosvenor’s Hill Street location is open 24 hours daily, with the gaming tables available between 12pm and 6 am. More than just a casino, this stylish venue is ideal for both day and night outings.

Less than a mile away is Grosvenor’s other Birmingham location at the Fiveways Leisure Complex on Broad Street. Here, you’ll find many of the same facilities including a fantastic restaurant, bar, entertainment lounge and several poker rooms.

Rainbow Casino

Situated in the iconic Edgbaston area of Birmingham, the Rainbow casino is another great option for live gaming. There are tables for classic roulette, blackjack, slots, three-card-poker and Punto Banco as well as multiple seldom seen Mah Jong tables.

Although MahJong doesn’t offer the chance to win money, the Chinese tile game can be played free of charge. The machine-based games on offer at the casino include electronic roulette and slots.

These machines extend to an outside terrace area that allows patrons to catch some fresh air, or smoke whilst they play. A seated zone can also be found outside should customers want to relax with some food and drinks.

Complimentary refreshments including tea, coffee, hot chocolate and soft drinks can be ordered at any time. Authentic Cantonese cuisine is also available free of charge on Mondays and Tuesday.

A complimentary Chinese buffet opens every Monday from 11 pm and complimentary Dim Sum is served from the same time on Tuesdays.

Birmingham’s Rainbow casino also has structured promotional offerings in place. On Wednesdays, Thursdays and Friday between 2pm and 6pm, a £10 match play can be enjoyed on slots.

Genting Casino

Located in the city centre at the heart of Birmingham’s Chinatown, this casino brings the Far East to the West Midlands. The Chinese themed restaurant serves both authentic Cantonese food and more familiar Westernised dishes.

Every casino classic can be found here, such as baccarat, blackjack, American roulette and three-card- poker. Baccarat is Genting’s speciality, with its six tables making it the best destination for baccarat players.

The Baccarat Fortune 8 Bonus offers a progressive jackpot of at least £2,000. A national tournament is also hosted in several Genting venues across the country, with the winner taking home £38,888.

This Genting venue also has a great selection of games to play E-tables for those not ready for live tables. Double spin roulette and electronic baccarat can be played, as well as the exclusive Dragonfire Roulette.

In this mode, straight bets are paid 29/1 but can qualify for an additional bonus of 200x the player’s stake.

The bar area is open until 3 am, with the rest of the venue closing at 5 am. Great food and a huge playing space full of tables makes Genting one of the best for live gaming in Birmingham.
