Who We Are
Editorial Publication
Launched in August 2026, funplanetgames.com is an informational British culinary and hospitality guide created for adult diners aged 18 and over who want clear, factual information on fine-dining restaurants, steakhouses, and brasseries located inside UK Gambling Commission (UKGC) licensed land-based casinos in Great Britain.
Rather than mixing online gambling operators with restaurant listings, our publication focuses strictly on brick-and-mortar casino dining rooms—evaluating steak ageing, seafood provenance, wine lists, late-night kitchen hours, and local land-based casino entry rules.
- Editorial office: 24 St James's Square, Westminster, London SW1Y 4JH
- Covers six established casino restaurants in London, Manchester, Leeds, and Glasgow
- Intended solely for adults aged 18+ in Great Britain (excludes Northern Ireland)

Our 5-Point Culinary Review Methodology
Research Protocol
Each casino restaurant profile and Editorial Gastronomy Index score (out of 10) on funplanetgames.com is compiled using a transparent 5-point documentary and culinary framework:
- 1. Culinary Quality & Provenance (30%): Dry-ageing standards for USDA Prime and British heritage beef, fresh seafood sourcing, and signature dishes such as Beef Wellington or Cantonese dim sum.
- 2. Sommelier, Cocktail & Bar Programme (20%): Quality of adjacent champagne bars, reserve wine lists, single-malt whisky selections, and alcohol-free mocktail pairings.
- 3. Dining Room Ambiance & Acoustic Comfort (20%): Architectural setting (such as balcony views over the Hippodrome rotunda or Victorian brick vaults at Manchester235) and table spacing.
- 4. UKGC Premises Licensing & 18+ Safeguards (15%): Verification that the host casino holds an active UK Gambling Commission premises licence and enforces Challenge 25 photographic ID checks and SENSE self-exclusion.
- 5. Set-Menu Value & Late-Night Service (15%): Comparison of peak à la carte pricing vs. pre-theatre set menus and availability of post-theatre supper service.
Corrections & Menu Updates Policy
Editorial Accuracy
Restaurant executive chefs, seasonal tasting menus, and casino opening hours can change. When a venue updates its pre-theatre set menu tariff or refurbishes a bar lounge, we revise our published guide figures promptly so diners have accurate expectations.
If you are a restaurant general manager or a recent diner and wish to report an updated telephone extension, seasonal menu change, or price adjustment, please email [email protected] or use our Dining Inquiry & Feedback Form. Verified corrections are published within 48 hours.
