London Bookies

[Jamier-Host]

Hi.

Does anyone know if there is such a thing as a "posh" bookies in London?  As in an extra big or nicely laid out place more in the style of a decent Vegas sportsbook than a pokey depression pit?

Cheers,

Jamie.

There are a couple in Mayfair.  The Ladbrokes on Curzon Street and Hills on Park Lane are their firms "premier" shops.  Victor Chandler also had a shop in Mayfair in, I think, Deanery Street and I think that is probably still there but not 100%.  Not been in the VC shop but the other two are pleasant but not amazing or anything.

There's even a slideshow of what the Deanery Street branch of Victor Chandler looks like. I didn't realise they had a doorman!
