    High Payback Land-Based Slots in the UK

    I'm searching for good land-based slots in the UK - can anyone help me out on this?

    I live in London and would love to find a casino or even just an amusement arcade where I can find slots with a decent payback percentage. The slots I've seen in beach resorts in the UK have paybacks that are very low - sometimes as low as 65%, which makes not worth playing

    The same is true of slots in places like Ladbrokes, where the minimum bet is £1 per spin and the payback was around 70% last time I looked. £20 can last about 5 minutes on those machines, even playing the minimum bet and the top prize is still only £500. A different world from playing the slots in Vegas.

    I've never been to a UK land-based casino, so I'd like to ask people here what the slots in these places like? Do they offer a good range of games and pay-back percentages that you would get in US casinos?

    Are there any good places to play slots in the UK at all?

    Many thanks

    You will find slots that pay at least 90% at Ladbrokes in Paddington, that big casino in the centre of leicester square and at most Galas i would imagine

    Thanks, I'll try out that one in Paddington as I can walk there from where I am. As I've never been to a UK land-based casino is there anything else I should know - dress codes, the need for an introduction to get membership etc. or are they just happy to see regular people walk-in, like in Vegas?

    You shouldn't be concerned about dress code. Most casinos you see on the streets are similar to Vegas. You just walk in with your passport,sign up and off you go to gamble. The casinos that do have strict dress codes are upper clash with high memberhship fees, you need to be referred by someone and generally they won't let you in from the moment you say hello.
    Mind you british casinos are not allowed by law to accept tips.

    P.S Just next to Queensway station (central line) there is a Gala casino with many slots inside.
