This place has just had a major refurbishement.
The place has been transformed in to a bright well decorated building. Although the structure remains the same and there is little extra space. The small bar has been incorporated in to the main gaming area and there are a few more seats in the bar area.
The games reamin the same as last reported, plus they have introduced 2, 3 card poker tables with a £2.00 minimum bet. The Craps table has never been open in the few visits I have made there and I was told by the staff it was due to lack of experienced croupiers. So if you want to play this, phone first.

Previous Report The Rainbow, is a smallish casino just outside Birminham city centre, about 10 minutes south in a taxi. Its one of the old school casinos opened in a time when they were frounded up on as dens of gambling and is now struggling with the more glitzy new airy places and the new open acceptance of social gambling. It has ample secure parking.
It looks as though it had a former use and has at some time long ago been adapted to a casino and hence it shows inside, as the layout is not ideal. It has a very small reception and tiny bar, well away from the main gambling area and a small restaruant.
The Bar has very limited seating and is not ideal for a quite drink in between gambling sessions (you can't drink alcohol in the games room it's the law, at the moment). The restaruant has a good menu and the food is good.
The gambling area has the usual diet of Roulette, the lastime I was there there were some 0.25p minimum tables up to £1.00 minimum and semi auto tables, played via betting screens but using a real time table, 2 Blackjack, which were always full and difficult to find a seat (£2.00 and £5.00 minimum), Caribbean poker and unsually Craps (an american dice game), but this does not start until quite late in the evening and needs sometime to digest the game play. The slots are dotted around the gambling room and there are not that many compared with the new generation casions, which have quite a few more in dedicated areas. There seems to be more seasoned gamblers here than in the city centre casinos which are attracting a younger clientel.
They also have a card room, where there are tornaments and straight games of Poker and Brag, plus some other card games. You don't play against the casino here in the card room, they just take a rake off the pot.
Needs a face lift. Membership as usual 24 hours in advance (free). Can be done by fax.
