We 39 ve always been in two minds about Chester races. On one hand, everybody tells you it 39 s great for business that Chester 39 s bars and restaurants get a real boost from the events and that huge numbers of visitors flood the city and spend their money. On the other hand, as a small independent business with a fantastic group of regular customers, we 39 ve been apprehensive of the races because most of our regulars steer well clear of Chester on races days and nights . To begin with, we also felt that we were a bit 39 off the radar 39 of most of Chester 39 s race going public we are a touch further than staggering distance from the race course and also a bit less about the glitz and the glam than some of our competitors. However, we remained confident that with time and the added exposure of our expanded restaurant , we could attract a more discerning race goer. I 39 m pleased to say that this seems to be the case. May festival the season opener was a bustling week of people out and about enjoying themselves and we really enjoyed it too. Our experiment of offering decent cooked English breakfast turned out to be a big hit, as did our specials and early lunch starting time of 11am. These will continue. Our aim is to build a reputation as somewhere you can rely on NOT to rip you off, squeeze you in or take advantage of you just because 39 it 39 s the races 39 . It seems to me that far too many restaurateurs think that the races is an opportunity to up their prices and treat people in a way that they would never normally even dream and then complain that they only ever get the 39 wrong sort of people 39 it 39 s a self fullfilling problem. Instead, let 39 s maintain standards, attract repeat business from 39 real 39 race goers and enjoy what can be a great spectacle for the city. Right, the next meeting is only a week or so away.
