   It was great out, but thought it would be more fancy. After it was a concert.

   First time at Pontefract racecourse today, I was in the grandstand & paddock area, which was good value for money. Really enjoyable day, helped by good weather and a few winners. It is very easy to find the course, park, and exit the car park. Will definitely be making another visit.

   Went here to celebrate 25 yrs since our first date and we were looked after by all the staff who couldn't have done any more for us if they tried. When we arrived there was a card and bottle of prosecco on our table from the staff which was a lovely gesture. Food was spot on on arrival you got tea and biscuits then a 3 course meal to have as and when you wanted it then afternoon tea was served. All other staff that took us and looked after us in the parade and winners enclosures were so friendly and made you feel special. If you want to have a great day at the races with wonderful staff I highly recommend Pontefract Racecourse.

   A quiet place (so long there are no races happening) to walk, either by yourself, with children, or with dogs, or to jog, around the racecourse, and close to the park. I love how you can easily park and get away from the busy town centre and the noisy jammed roads just in the nearby. Talking about jammed roads, if you get there by car the traffic may not be too good, especially in rush hour.

   What a lovely racecourse! It was like stepping in to a little village with a vibrant and friendly atmosphere. Having never been to a racecourse before, I was impressed by the intimacy of the place where you could see the horses in the paddock both before and after the race. Staff were on hand to offer help and were genuinely pleased to see you. I can only highly recommend a visit and look forward to coming again very soon.

   We had a brilliant last race of the season at Pontefract Racecourse. Good atmosphere with helpful staff. Different bars for buying drinks. Also dining area with hot food. You can see the horses parade and at winning post.

   We had a great day at the races. It’s always well run with friendly staff who are really helpful. The facilities are always clean and tidy and the prices of food and drink are pretty reasonable compared to other venues of a similar nature. We will be back again and I’d recommend a day at pontefract races to anyone!
