Sar Leisure Limited is a land-based gambling operator that has been licensed by the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC) since 1 January 2009. The company has maintained a continuous licence for over 15 years and has no history of regulatory actions or fines. Its operations are focused entirely on physical premises, as it doesn't hold any licences for online gambling.

The operator is the trading name for the company SAR LEISURE LIMITED, which was incorporated in the UK on 9 May 2007. The company is directed by HUGHES, John Ashley and HUGHES, Simon, who have both been in their roles since the company's formation. Both directors are British and reside in the United Kingdom.

Company records show that Mr John Ashley Hughes is the person with significant control. He holds between 50% and 75% of the company's shares and voting rights. This gives him the power to appoint and remove directors.

Sar Leisure Limited's sole UKGC permission is a licence for a Gaming Machine General Adult Gaming Centre. This allows it to make gaming machines available for use in adult gaming centres, which are commonly known as arcades for customers aged 18 and over.
