Grosvenor Casino Tottenham United Kingdom

The Venue at 262 Tottenham Court Road

Grosvenor Casino stands at 262 Tottenham Court Road, London W1T 7RG, right on one of the busier crossroads in central London. It sits a short walk from Tottenham Court Road Underground station, so people can reach it without much effort from most parts of the city.

In official paperwork it appears as Grosvenor Casino St Giles. On the UK Gambling Commission premises register, the address is listed twice under slightly different names: “London-St Giles Grosvenor Casino” and “London-St Giles Electric Grosvenor Casino”. The site falls under the licensing remit of the London Borough of Camden.

Doors never really close here. The venue itself trades 24 hours a day, all week. Live tables - roulette, blackjack, and card games - are dealt between 12:00 and 06:00 every day. Outside that window, electronic machines stay on, so there is still playable content on the floor.

Everyone coming in needs to sign in. The dress code is smart casual rather than formal, but first-time visitors are asked for ID at the door for age checks. The minimum age is 18, in line with UK Gambling Commission rules for all licensed casinos operating in Great Britain.

Gaming on the Floor

During live hours the focus shifts clearly onto the tables. Roulette wheels and blackjack layouts are usually the most visible games, just as they are at other Grosvenor casinos across London. Electronic terminals and machines, however, keep running day and night, so even at quieter times the floor does not completely shut down.

The operator does not publish a fixed, detailed map of the floor. Table counts, poker activity and the mix of machines can move around, sometimes more than once. For visitors who want up-to-date numbers or to check whether a specific format is running, a quick call to +44 20 7299 7600 tends to be the simplest way to get an answer. Under its UKGC permissions, Grosvenor also has general betting authorisation that covers certain betting products offered on-site.

The clientele is mixed. Some people treat it as a local spot, others drift in from nearby hotels, and a fair share come through while spending an evening in the West End. It is a mainstream, regulated venue, not private or invitation-only, although the sign-in procedure at entry still applies to everyone.

Licensing and Regulatory Framework

Operations at Grosvenor Casino Tottenham Court Road sit under the umbrella of licences issued by the UK Gambling Commission. The Grosvenor brand refers to three UKGC account numbers for its land-based business: 614, 33465, and 34161, held by different companies within the group.

Grosvenor Casinos Limited holds account 614. That licence covers non-remote casino activity under both the old Gaming Act 1968 and the current Gambling Act 2005, and it also includes remote casino and general betting permissions. Another company in the group, Grosvenor Casinos (GC) Limited, holds account 34161. That one combines non-remote casino, non-remote general betting, remote casino, and remote real-event betting permissions. Both entries appear as active on the public UKGC register.

It is very common for larger UK gambling groups to spread their permissions across more than one licensed company. Anyone who wants to double-check that these licences are current can do so by looking up the account numbers directly at gamblingcommission.gov.uk.

The Rank Group Behind It

The casino on Tottenham Court Road forms part of the Grosvenor Casinos chain, which is owned by The Rank Group plc. Rank is a British gambling group listed on the stock market, with headquarters at TOR, Saint-Cloud Way, Maidenhead, SL6 8BN. Within its portfolio, Rank describes Grosvenor as the largest multi-channel casino operation in the UK, with around 50 venues carrying the Grosvenor name. The group also runs Mecca Bingo halls and the online-focused Rank Interactive business.

Grosvenor itself has roots going back to 1970, when the venues traded under the County Clubs identity. Over the following decades the estate grew from a small base into a nationwide chain and ultimately into the main land-based casino brand in Great Britain. The Tottenham Court Road site, often referred to as St Giles, functions as one of the key London locations thanks to its central West End position and constant footfall.

Every Grosvenor venue, including this one, operates within Rank Group policies on compliance, safer gambling, and customer care. Those rules sit at group level and apply everywhere, rather than each casino writing its own separate playbook.

Online Platform

Alongside the physical casinos, Grosvenor runs an online casino and betting platform at grosvenorcasinos.com. Rank Digital Gaming (Alderney) Ltd, another part of The Rank Group, manages this side of the business. For players based in Great Britain the website is licensed and regulated by the UK Gambling Commission under licence number 000-038074-R-319313-014, account number 57924. Customers outside Great Britain fall under Gibraltar regulation, through licences RGL 133 and RGL 134 issued by the Gibraltar Gambling Commission.

The online product acts as the digital branch of the same Grosvenor brand that operates the Tottenham Court Road casino. Using a single account, customers can access casino titles, betting markets and promotional offers through a standard browser.

Getting started typically goes in a few steps:

1. Open grosvenorcasinos.com on a phone, laptop or tablet.
2. Use the registration option on the homepage.
3. Enter core details such as full name, date of birth and home address.
4. Add a working email address and choose a password.
5. When asked, upload a government-issued photo ID so the system can verify identity.
6. Confirm things through the email link sent to the inbox.
7. Sign in, then move to the cashier area to add funds before playing.

In practice, it usually helps to complete the ID checks at a quiet moment in advance. Leaving it until the middle of a session can slow things down a bit when you might prefer to be playing.

To locate the Tottenham Court Road casino from within the site, go to the “Local Casinos” section in the main navigation, select London from the list of areas, then look for the St Giles entry. That page lists opening times, contact numbers and the full address. Anyone visiting mainly for live table play may want to time their arrival somewhere between 12:00 and 06:00.

Responsible Gambling

Grosvenor Casinos operates under the safer gambling requirements laid down by the UK Gambling Commission. These duties reach across both the online platform and the land-based venues. Under this framework, operators must give customers access to self-exclusion, deposit limits and reality checks. On grosvenorcasinos.com, those tools sit inside the account settings area.

In the physical casino, staff receive training that reflects UKGC safer gambling expectations. ID checks at the entrance are part of that process and are not treated as optional. Customers who decide they want to exclude themselves from Grosvenor’s premises can use GAMSTOP, the national multi-operator scheme that covers all UKGC-licensed gambling businesses.

No specific enforcement action or public regulatory warning connected directly to the Tottenham Court Road venue appears on the UKGC public register as of 2026.
