Thursdays is buck night, best value for admission. You can't beat watching the horses race on a beautiful summer day. Extremely nice card room with very friendly dealers. The pizza is the best!
On a beautiful day there's nothing quite like it! Char at Char's Bar (second level) has great fixins for Bloody Mary's and is one of the kindest bar tenders there is! Highly rec and very kid friendly!- Arielle LenoxOctober 9, 2018In season, they have horse races on the weekend which are a great event to do with, They also have chariot races as well which are really fun, especially for kids to watch!
ThrillistJune 14, 2013Because you too like to live dangerously, put some cash on the ponies, do some off-track betting, and maybe even throw down on a hand or 20 of poker.
SummerSeptember 12, 2012Great Saturday afternoon with friends, get a restaurant table and really relax in style... Skip the buffet, but order the flat bread pizza. Bloody Mary's are delicious!
Emily HAugust 9, 2017On the last Saturday in July, go to see the Corgi Races and also get cupcakes. I haven't done this but saw it on the internet so wanted to write this tip basically as a reminder to-do for myself
Make sure you get a free sample of nuts on the main level near the escalator. So yummy!!
Come for the horse races stay for the fun. The cardroom is great, its non smoking so you don't have to get lung cancer while playing blackjack.
Chris JAugust 18, 2017If you don't know which horse to bet on, pick up a copy of Kevin Gorg's Power Plays for some tips.
Rachael JurekJuly 13, 2013There's a pumping/changing station for mommies. This is a very family friendly (and not trashy) track. Kudos Minnesota.
Got really excited about the craft beer at the Chalk Pub...then I saw that the pints are $7 and $8 for some pretty average beers.

Dollar Thursday's are the best. Great food and fun races.
Tim CaffreyApril 9, 2013Matt Long is the KING of cards and cranberry vodka! Hollar for a dollar if you see him. He's very charitable.
