First look at Napoleons Casino & Restaurant, Leeds, UK

Napoleons Casino Leeds, located in the heart of the city, has undergone a stunning refurbishment by Chapman Taylor on behalf of A&S Leisure. Chapman Taylor has led the design development of a new look and feel for the well-established brand across multiple venues, building on the success of projects in Manchester and Bradford.

Each venue is identifiable as part of the family of branded venues whilst responding to individual contexts to give each venue a unique personality. The revamped venue celebrates Leeds’ historic cinematic roots, combining the timeless allure of classic design with modern luxury and detailing, delivering a sophisticated and opulent experience for patrons.

Internally, the layout was remodelled to improve customer flow, better connect the spaces and to open up views across the venue. The new restaurant and bar area combine to create a relaxed, welcoming environment, with warm, natural tones and soft, atmospheric lighting with bespoke booth seating that creates a feature wall along the length of the restaurant. The curved brass-fronted cocktail bar provides a focal point overlooking the main gaming floor.

A contemporary reimagining of casino elegance

Every detail reflects bespoke design and high-end craftsmanship with a blend of traditional and modern finishes. The lighting design projects a luxurious warmth, with soft pools of light and bespoke features to create points of interest throughout the space.

Napoleons Casino Leeds is a masterful transformation that elevates the classic casino concept, offering a dynamic and luxurious space for gaming, dining, and socialising in the heart of Leeds.
