Where Cambridge's Coral shops actually are
The 4 branches on this page are not spread evenly, and knowing which cluster you are in saves a pointless journey.
Emmanuel Street and Burleigh Street
Emmanuel Street is a basement shop a minute from the bus station and the Grand Arcade, and the nearest Coral to the colleges. It runs 8:30am to 9:00pm Monday to Friday and 8:00am to 9:00pm on Saturday. Burleigh Street, in the Grafton Centre area 0.46 miles out, opens at 8:00am and closes at 10:00pm all week — an hour later than Emmanuel Street every single day, for about five minutes' extra walk.
Mill Road
Just over a mile east, serving the Romsey and Petersfield end of the city. It keeps the shortest hours in Cambridge: 9:00am to 7:00pm Monday to Friday, with a slightly longer 8:30am to 7:30pm on Saturday and 10:00am to 7:30pm on Sunday. Fine for daytime racing, wrong for an evening bet.
Arbury
In Arbury Court about a mile and a third north. It matches Burleigh Street's 10:00pm close Monday to Saturday and opens at 8:00am on Saturday, which makes it the best option on the northern side of the city. The catch is Sunday, when it runs only 10:00am to 6:00pm — the earliest Sunday close in Cambridge by a wide margin.
Coral opening times in Cambridge, day by day
The ranges below are drawn from the 4 branches on this page rather than Coral's national average, so they reflect what you will actually find locally rather than a generic figure from a brand locator.
Ranges across the 4 branches listed above. Individual shops set their own hours under local licensing conditions.
| Day | Earliest opening | Typical opening | Typical closing | Latest closing | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sunday | 9am | 9:30am – 10am | 7:30pm – 10pm | 10pm | Later start across the estate |
| Monday | 8am | 8:30am – 9am | 9pm – 10pm | 10pm | Standard weekday trading |
| Tuesday | 8am | 8:30am – 9am | 9pm – 10pm | 10pm | Quietest day of the week |
| Wednesday | 8am | 8:30am – 9am | 9pm – 10pm | 10pm | Midweek football and evening racing |

| Saturday | 8am | 8am – 8:30am | 9pm – 10pm | 10pm | Busiest day; several branches close earlier |
Burleigh Street is worth the extra five minutes
Emmanuel Street wins on pure convenience — 150 yards from Market Square is as close as it gets. But it closes at 9:00pm, and Burleigh Street, less than half a mile away, closes at 10:00pm and opens half an hour earlier.
The gap widens on a Sunday. Burleigh Street is the only Coral in Cambridge trading until 10:00pm on a Sunday; Emmanuel Street closes at 9:00pm, Mill Road at 7:30pm and Arbury at 6:00pm.
Arbury is the trap for anyone north of the centre. Monday to Saturday it is excellent, matching the 10:00pm close and opening at 8:00am on Saturdays. On Sunday it does not open until 10:00am and shuts at 6:00pm — a twelve-hour swing between its best and worst day.
Getting to a shop in Cambridge
Emmanuel Street and Burleigh Street are both a few minutes' walk from the centre and close to the bus station, so neither needs transport. Cambridge station is about twenty minutes on foot from Emmanuel Street, or a short bus ride. Mill Road is a straightforward cycle or walk east over the bridge, and Arbury is served by the buses north up Milton Road. Cambridge is a cycling city and all four branches have bike parking nearby; driving into the centre is slow and parking expensive.
Before you travel. Check the closing time, not just whether a shop is open. Counter service usually winds down before the doors shut, so allow at least 20 minutes if you need to be served rather than use a terminal — particularly if you are collecting winnings on a large or damaged slip.
18+ only. Every branch listed operates Think 21, so bring photo ID if you look under 21. A passport, UK photocard driving licence or PASS-accredited card will do.
