The Hennessy

We went to the Hennessey Restaurant & the first 2 courses were amazing. The service for that was also great. However, refills of complimentary drinks were missing from the front row, despite being readily poured on others. The dessert & afternoon tea left a lot to be desired & I would definitely not advise. They need to employ an accomplished pastry chef, as well as the savoury specialist. The service should also be of the same level throughout. Wowed at first & disappointed by half way through the experience.

Another great days racing. The grounds were well managed and kept in good order throughout the day, which was exceptionally busy. Long queues for the ladies toilets which could have been resolved by better signage as there were more outside that were not particularly well used. Oli Murs on after the racing and we paid extra for close proximity tickets. However because of the large crowd were unable to get into the reserved area. We weren't the only ones. Many others in this position, and on asking a member of staff were told to just push our way to the front. This was not a possibility and ended up with a very poor view. I would suggest that in the future for this type of event if requesting people to pay extra for tickets that an accessible entrance is provided. At 66 pushing my way through a crowd of young fans is not really an option. Overall an enjoyable day in great surroundings. Just a shame the after show was so poorly managed.
