Chez Roux Restaurant

Viewing (Final Fence)

Introduction

The introduction of this high-end restaurant to the Home of Jump Racing seemed to be a calculated risk a few years ago. However, the gamble has paid off, and this restaurant has spear-headed the raising of hospitality standards throughout the racecourse. This is a fine-dining experience with prices to match, often frequented by celebrity guests.

Location

Situated on the third floor (top) of the largest temporary glass-fronted box structure in Europe, at the end of the structure closest to the winning post. The restaurant boasts a large outside viewing balcony overlooking the final fence. Guests enjoy views of the horses as they race down the hill and over the final two fences. More distant views can be enjoyed of the horses going up the hill towards the winning post.

Facility/Décor
