    Excellent ( Horizon Restaurant)
    Using the Horizons Restaurant for our evenings racing and staying at the attached Holiday Inn (see separate review) we had an unbridled view of the track. This all weather course is run with maximum efficiency. The restaurant is equally well run and the food excellent. Bets on races can be collected at your table and drinks are delivered too you. ( Note to bar staff a one inch head on Guinness isn't a pint of Guinness) A truly pleasant experience. Well run and very friendly.

    Polite Staff Good Day Out
    Attended a race meeting on a Monday afternoon in August. Booked three Grandstand tickets on line in advance. All staff were fantastic and helpful. Venue was clean and tidy and facilities ample for our needs. Confused over plastic glasses whether you get deposit back or your deposit taken off each round of drinks. This should be made clear via a notice at the bar. Parking very good and close to the course. Thank you Wolverhampton Races we had a great day and a few winners too.

    Racing League Thursday Evening
    We had a really good time at this Racing League event that had a brilliant atmosphere. Great for viewing the course and the paddock. All staff very friendly. The best was Stephan on the gate as we left. He has such enthusiasm and provided some of the best customer service I have had in a long time.

    Great Experience
    It was my 56th birthday, we usually visit Doncaster. We tried something different a visit to Wolverhampton races. The travel is double the journey. The racing in November is National hunt compared to flat racing in Wolverhampton. Wow I was blown away, the Wolverhampton restaurant was fantastic, the service 2nd to none, we both enjoyed the menu, it was Christmas themed, the food was delicious. The tables are well spaced, seating comfortable, windows panaramic. Great views of everything, just in case a TV monitor, covering each race built in. There were 9 races, tiwlight coverage under floodlights, a singer who rocked the venue. To be honest it's the best hospitality experience I have enjoyed. I have been to grade one courses Kempton park,boxing day, York, Dante meeting, Doncaster, paid 10 times the money per head, Wolverhampton races wins. Fantastic value, best food, great entertainment and experience. I will visit again soon.

    Horizons at the racecourse
    When you arrive it doesn’t look great old 1970s building tired on the outside. But we booked hospitality table in horizons. The menu and food was excellent. The service was 5 star they couldn’t do enough for you. Everyone was really friendly. I have had hospitality at racecourse from Ascot to York to name a few but Wolverhampton was the best I had. Would advise anyone that wants a great dinner and a bit of fun on the racing to go. Well done Wolverhampton

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

No information available on the website regarding allergens or even what food might be available.

I eventually managed to get some fries after a lot of back and forth.

Would give 0 stars if it was an option.
Tried to attend the Evolution light show 14th December 2023.
Traffic management was none existant. All local area gridlocked. On site poorly organised for carparking causing huge delays.
Show had started before we had parked. Saw a small section of drone show in the carpark through a fence.
Will not got to the Racecourse ever again.
No real apology from Yuup or the Racecourse for the issues caused. Only a note to say of a refund after emailing but no apology in that.
Customer service 0 stars
