Ellerslie Racecourse

$185pp

A room with a view.

An odds-on raceday favourite, you’ll never miss a moment of the day’s entertainment with floor-to-ceiling glass frontages bringing exceptional views of the action directly to your table.

A fantastic shared precinct for business or social groups, seats are limited and this lounge will sell out.

And if you’re looking for a little more detail, you can simply revert to your table’s flat-screen TV to watch the racing up close.

The menu for the day has been especially designed by Executive Chef Paul Barrett who relies on the bounty of seasonal Kiwi produce, often incorporating produce grown sustainably onsite.
