The Victoria Casino, now part of the Grosvenor Casinos, is one of the largest and oldest UK casino clubs conveniently situated in the heart of London, offering many facilities and first class service. One of my favourite casinos.
It has two gaming areas on two floors, two sports bars, a bistro and a restaurant. The main gaming area is in the lower floor, with a bistro and a sports bar, a VIP gaming room, and The Terrace - a dedicated smoking area. The other gaming area in the top floor is the very popular Victoria cardroom, along with the restaurant and a sports bar.
The Victoria Casino is one of the few UK casinos that offers Craps game. Also, the Victoria casino has possibly the largest Punto Banco (Baccarat) table in the world, seating 36 players and aided by two TV screens showing the dealer and the cards as they are dealt.
Both Sports Bars show live sporting action on wide screen TV. The restaurant offers an extensive menu including, Middle Eastern, Chinese, and European dishes. The food is first class and the service is very good.
The Victoria Casino had a major refurbishment and looks better than ever. From 1 September, 2007, the opening times are 12 noon to 6am, every day.
