The 2026 Edition

A Connoisseur’s Guide to British Gaming

Great Britain’s gaming rooms carry more history than almost any in the world, and the best of them wear it well. This almanac gathers four addresses where the play is serious — poker above all, beside roulette, blackjack and the modern machines — and the surroundings are worth dressing for, from a Midlands resort campus to a storied West End card room.

The flagship complexes add proper hotels, spas and late kitchens; the city venues answer with location, character and restaurants timed to the tables. Tournaments, galas and live stages ensure the calendar is never empty.
