The Broadway Casino
is located at Broadway Plaza, Ladywood Middleway, just off Five Ways, in the
heart of Birmingham. Its tricky to get to first time if you do not know the
central city roads so make sure you print a good map out from the internet.

Birmingahm has had a bad time with casinos but at
last this is a breath of fresh air. This is a bigger more spacious casino with
non-gaming areas just for relaxtion. A well put together modern looking
restaurant (Oscars) with open kitchen and resident pianist is a very welcome
sight.
Many nights there is live music as well as Sky Sports Live on a
range of plasma screens in the sumptuous surroundings of the Taste Lounge.
There are two bars and plenty of room.
The casino's best feature is the
poker room with a lot of action every evening. There are tournaments every day
except Thursday which has cash games all night from 6pm.
Other
features for the travelling gambler is the affordable Travelodge opposite, they
are offering rooms from as little as £15 per night. Customers can take
advantage of these low-cost rates by using Travelodges online booking
service at www.travelodge.co.uk. Below the casino a 1400 space parking
facility which the casino reception will validate for you if you remeber to ask
on your way out.
