Dining at the racecourse
Club Restaurant
Our award-winning Club Restaurant offers a delicious two- or three-course lunch or dinner from just £34.95 per person, with the option to add a traditional afternoon tea. Conveniently located just a short walk from the seated Club Enclosure viewing area and the Parade Ring, it’s the perfect spot to enjoy a meal at the races without missing any of the excitement.
Tables can be reserved for the full afternoon or evening by contacting Legends Global Event Caterers on 0113 287 6387 or via email.
A £5 per person reservation fee applies, payable directly to CGC Event Caterers.
When booking the Club Restaurant, please note that Club Enclosure admission tickets for the appropriate raceday must be purchased separately, either online or by calling the racecourse office on 01765 530530.
Advance booking is highly recommended, as the Club Restaurant is extremely popular and often reaches full capacity well ahead of each raceday.
Silks and Saddles
Located within the Club Enclosure, the Silks & Saddles Bar offers a delicious meat and seafood buffet. Choose from a tempting selection of dishes—from smoked salmon to the finest Yorkshire beef—then help yourself to a variety of delicatessen salads, hot new potatoes, and freshly baked breads.
The bar provides racegoers with a glimpse into the rich heritage of flat racing, featuring memorabilia from across the decades. The silks and tack displayed have been kindly donated by local trainers and well-known owners.
Please note: due to seating restrictions, a maximum of six people per booking applies, and tables are only reserved until the first race, after which the bar will be opened to all racegoers.
Champagne & Seafood Bar
Our Champagne & Seafood Bar offers a variety of light seafood options, the perfect accompaniment to a glass of fizz. In addition to a range of champagnes and fine wines, the Champagne & Seafood bar also has a terraced area with a view of the Parade Ring.
The area is particularly popular on Ladies’ Day and with Owners and Trainers.
Fountains Cafe
The Fountains Cafe offers a wide range of hot and cold meals. Located in the Paddock Enclosure opposite the bandstand, the Cafe offers the perfect place for a quick bite to eat using Yorkshire’s finest seasonal produce.
With daily specials available, you will be able to enjoy everything from salads to a curry or a hot steak pie, mash and veg. The Cafe is also the great place to enjoy a cup of tea or coffee on a raceday!
For private hospitality, we offer a selection of exclusive spaces including our Rowels Boxes, Hornblower Room, and Claro Suites. Each provides the perfect setting for a corporate raceday event, special celebration, or a group of friends looking to enjoy an unforgettable day at the races together.
