   Sunday lunch for 9 adults in the restaurant. Arrived 1:15 restaurant not open until 1:30 so went into the public bar downstairs for a drink then at 1:30 went to the restaurant, had asked for a table in front of the window when booking and got exactly what we asked for. It was nice and warm in the room, the two course lunch was delicious. At the table was a £5 drinks voucher per person and a plastic disk which entitled you to a free £5 bet person person. Also you were able to place a bet on each race without leaving your table. An extremely enjoyable afternoons experience that I would recommend

   Great family evening. We bought the Saturday package which was a bargain. Food simple but delicious. Venue great. Only issue that needs improving is parking facilities. Quite a distance from buildings,for those with walking difficulties. Its on grass, & when you get back to your cars its dark, muddy & with no directions to exit.

   Just visited Towcester for the semi finals of the greyhound Derby. Parking was free and plentiful on rough cut long grass. Staff are pleasant and efficient and the venue is cheap and cheerful, if a bit tired. The three course meal in the restaurant was a taste sensation- was not expecting that! Betting was easy as tote came to the table if you wanted and I could get good phone signal so could use my betting app easily. Balcony was smothered in swallow/ bird poo due to nests under the eves, which could have been cleaned before the event. Otherwise a good night out!

   Nice to see greyhound races again. A nice and relaxing saturday, ☀️ afternoon with a talk, a drink and a small bet. Nothing posh, but a nice spacious place with local people and families. 13 races. 5 pound pp fee to book online. Would definitely do it again some time.

   Great afternoon out, excellent lunch in the VIP lounge, then onto the dogs, sat overlooking the finish line, with TV's in the restaurant to save turning your head. The youngsters serving the meal were a delight. Guy on the tote was very helpful. All in all a great experience and going back soon.

   Towcester food festival (held at the race course) was excellent. Busy, lots of good interesting stuff going on and amazing food. Race course was great to see but sad that horses no longer race there...though I hear they're coming back.

   This was our first time at this venue. And we had a great Boxing day here. Might make it a tradition in future. A couple of us had a few wins. It was a great day out.

   My first visit to towcester and first introduction to dog racing. There were longish queues at the bar, but the bar staff were friendly, and polite. The track was very good with a big screen at three finish line, and like all courses there were a variety of size tv's if you didn't fancy braving the weather, it was raining off and on. There were seating areas where you could enjoy your drinks and your meal. I enjoyed my burger, but wished that the menu didn't have chips with everything. Our choice was burger, foot long hotdog. Currys, baked potatoes, pies, chicken wraps. All came with chips. My cheeseburger also came with yummy onion rings. Again it would have been nice to have had a choice of fried onions with the burgers and hotdogs. Rice with the curries would have been nice. Price was ok. I liked the chips. Some of our party used the restaurant, buti can't comment on that, sorry. I found the betting a little confusing being my first time, and unfortunately didn't have a win. I also found that the time between the races was very short. the races were over very quickly and before we knew it our evening had finished. All in all a very pleasant trip out with some very good company. A big thank you to our Dunstable Conservative Club for arranging it, well done Kev!.
