Restaurant


How much does it cost?

At the moment parties of less than 10 people need to pay a deposit of £10 per person is required at the time of booking and will choose from the a la carte menu on the night. The deposit is then deducted from the final bill on the night.

Parties on the a la carte menu still have to pay the usual admission price into the stadium.
Parties of 10 people or more are required to pay the £10 per person at the time of booking and are then sent the party menus to choose from (click here for menus). Each person chooses one of the six menus and the organiser then informs us. Party menu prices include admission and racecard.
