Read all 5A very fun place to go! I would recommend, however it’s sometimes quite hard to win loads of things, but that generally happens with claw machines anyways! But overall i would recommend, It’s a great experience!!
Lucky Claw is an entire floor Dedicated to claw machines, it’s a fantastic place to go for a fun short activity. It’s reasonably priced at £10 for 25 tokens and you are guaranteed to win at least once. I won 4 items the last time I went. The staff are super friendly and the claw machines are filled with many different toys,snacks,keychains and figurines. Over all it’s a super fun and cute place to play games and take photos. I highly recommend. Approx time spent : 40 min

Overwhelmed a massively impressed this 40 year old just relived a childhood I never got to experience core machines are usually fixed but this place is like the Holy Grail good chances of winning trade money for tokens and then most of the games are one token per play great prizes great cuddlies you can even upgrade your prizes for a bigger one right loud and fantastic for kids and big kids alike I will definitely be back. Staff were friendly and helpful and the place was really clean and tidy it's upstairs above a restaurant food court so don't be put off
Such a fun place to go, all of the staff are so lovely and did a photoshoot for me and my boyfriend. Highly recommend and we will be definitely go again in the future. Really good for price aswel
We visited here for my girlfriends birthday today after she saw about it on TikTok and it was great. So different from your regular arcade with claw machines. These were very winnable, and I loved the fact that you could either keep your toys won, or trade up for a bigger one. There’s a few other game machines in there for variety, and the decor was great. Loved all the neon, mirrors, bright light’s and cartoons. The staff were brilliant, always refilling machines, cleaning, helping anyone that needed it, and the girl behind the counter was so friendly and polite.

Are the claw machines actually fair, or is it hard to win?+
Lucky Claw operates all its machines at consistent, fair grip strength with no rigged mechanics, and claims a 20% success rate, significantly higher than most arcades. Reviewers frequently report winning multiple prizes in a single visit, often within just a few tokens.
Is the venue accessible for wheelchair users?+
Accessibility is limited. The arcade is on the second floor of 143 Bromsgrove Street, and while there is a lift to the first floor (the food hall), getting to the second floor currently requires climbing stairs. Visitors who rely fully on a wheelchair may find the venue difficult to access, so it's worth contacting Lucky Claw in advance.
How do I get there, and is there parking nearby?+
Lucky Claw is located at 2nd Floor, 143 Bromsgrove Street, Birmingham B5 6RG, in the heart of Chinatown above the Han Dynasty Food Hall. Free car parking has been reported within a few minutes' walk, and the central location means it is also well served by public transport into Birmingham city centre.
How busy does it get, and is there a best time to visit?+
Lucky Claw has grown quickly in popularity thanks to social media coverage, so weekends and evenings can get busy. For a more relaxed experience, visiting on a weekday or earlier in the day is generally advisable. The venue suits both a quick one-hour drop-in and a longer group outing.
