Napoleons Casino Leeds - Venue Overview

What’s On The Gaming Floor

The casino at Bingley Street runs live tables every day the doors are open. Roulette, blackjack, poker and punto banco are all dealt on-site - with no private club, hidden room or upgrade needed. You walk in, show valid ID, and you are on the floor.

Around 18 slot machines sit alongside the traditional tables. Stakes start at 1p per spin and climb to £5, so you can sit down for a few low-stakes games or push things higher without moving to some premium section. For a northern venue of this size, that spread of bets is slightly more flexible than usual.

Entry is for anyone aged 18 or over. Standard UK checks apply at the door, and staff may ask for photo ID even if you clearly look older. It is easier to keep a passport or driving licence in your pocket than to argue about it in front of the queue.

Napoleons Casinos & Restaurants holds a licence from the UK Gambling Commission. The Leeds property follows UKGC rules on age verification, safer gambling tools and fair play. Self-exclusion procedures are active on-site, in line with what you would expect from a regulated casino in Great Britain.

Opening Hours And Getting There

Napoleons Casino Leeds, at 2 Bingley Street, Leeds LS3 1LX, opens at midday and trades through until 6am the following morning. The bar and restaurant keep shorter hours within that casino window. If you are planning around food or late drinks, the current times on napoleons-casinos.co.uk/the-casinos/leeds/ are worth checking on the day.

The building is inside the Westport Centre, just off West Street on the A65. From Leeds train station it is roughly a 15-minute walk along Wellington Street heading west. On a dry evening that is a simple walk, but after midnight plenty of guests prefer a taxi.

Drivers can use the free parking at Westport Centre, which does make life easier if you are coming in from outside Leeds. Napoleons Leeds lists Amber Cars as its preferred taxi firm, on 0113 202 2117. Storing that number once on your phone usually beats searching for it after closing time.

One simple tip for any first visit to a city-centre venue: sort how you are getting home before you get drawn into a long table session. It is less stress than hunting for transport at 2 or 3am.

Planning Your First Visit

Most of the practical details are straightforward, but lining up a few basics in advance tends to make the night smoother.

1. Look at the official site for the latest hours, especially for the bar and restaurant, which differ from the gaming floor.
2. Arriving by train: leave Leeds station, pick up Wellington Street and walk west for around 15 minutes until you reach the Westport Centre.
3. Driving in: set your sat nav for Westport Centre, West Street, Leeds LS3 1LX. Parking in the complex is free for visitors.
4. Bring a recognised photo ID. The 18+ entry rule is firm, staff do enforce it.
5. Once you are inside, casino, bar and restaurant all sit within the same building, with no need for separate check-ins or extra doors.
6. Slot machines start from 1p a spin, so you can sit down for very low-stakes play without feeling out of place.
7. Planning to eat: aim to be seated before 10pm Monday to Saturday if you want access to the full menu.
8. For late taxis, Amber Cars on 0113 202 2117 is the operator the venue points visitors towards.

Dining And The Bar

The restaurant offers an à la carte menu, plus a table d’hôte option on selected evenings. Service is in the evening only. Daytime gaming sessions do not come with food from the kitchen, so arriving at noon expecting lunch in the restaurant will not really work at this site.

Bar service runs much later. The late-night food menu at the bar is available until midnight from Sunday to Thursday, and until 3am on Friday and Saturday. If you arrive after the restaurant has closed, the bar becomes the fall-back for something to eat and drink.

Napoleons promotes its dining with a “First Class Restaurants” label on the group website. The Leeds restaurant features there alongside the other locations. To sort menus, dietary questions or specific requests, it is easiest to contact the venue directly.

Booking A Table

Booking a table is a quick process. First, double-check restaurant hours for the day you have in mind - Monday to Saturday the kitchen opens at 5pm, and on Sundays service starts at 4pm. After that you can either call +44 113 244 5393 during opening times or send an email to [email protected] with your date, time and number of guests.

When you book, it helps to say whether you are leaning towards à la carte or the table d’hôte option, since not every service offers both in the same way. On arrival you simply head into the main building. The restaurant sits inside the same space as the casino, so there is no separate street entrance. Once you have finished eating, the gaming floor is only a short walk away, with no extra registration step needed.

About The Napoleons Group

Napoleons Casinos & Restaurants started operating in 1986 and now runs five venues across the north of England - Bradford, Hull, Leeds, Manchester and Sheffield. The head office is based in Sheffield. Leeds is one of the longest standing casinos in the line-up, with third-party listings putting its opening in the mid-1980s, so close to four decades on site.

Every Napoleons property follows a similar pattern: live table games, electronic machines, a seated restaurant and a separate bar area. The Leeds venue fits that model directly. The branding and general feel have stayed consistent across all five locations, which is relatively unusual for an independently owned group of this size.

One point that trips people up occasionally: Napoleons does not run an online casino. The group website is there to show venue information, menus, hours and events, not to host remote gaming. All betting activity takes place on the casino floors themselves. For anyone living in Leeds, or visiting the city, the Bingley Street casino is the only way to use Napoleons services locally.

The main website at napoleons-casinos.co.uk lists all five venues, each with its own page. The Leeds section at napoleons-casinos.co.uk/the-casinos/leeds/ holds contact information, the current opening hours and details of what you will find when you walk in.
